Looked like exactly what I needed but after installing it, the pdf part of the page is just a blank page with a cursor blinking. Some Overleaf update probably broke the plugin.

for me and my opinion is that it does nothing, sorry. i dont get what its supposed to do. Sorry :(

Very useful plugin, but the underlining will gradually become further and further down the page from the word the suggestions are targeting. This makes it hard to use on large documents.

It has been a great extension. However, it seems there are some problems with the extension. It does not work anymore.

Great app for grammar checking in Overleaf. But the extension keeps crashing in Chrome, which is quite annoying.

It is very unreliable for both Chrome and Firefox. Often the wrong words are marked and changes can screw up entire sentences. It would be such a useful extension, but overall trying it was a waste of time.

Perfect

Some of the LaTeX commands aren't filtered out, which sometimes confuses Grammarly. Overall a great extension, saves me a lot of time!

I usually never write reviews, but this extension is a life saver. I have spent so much time copying my latex code into word removing commands and then copying into Grammarly and then having to cross-compare. Which is tedious work at best, and at worst lead to additional mistakes. This plugin is amazing. 10/10, would recommend.

This is what I was looking for, since years ! If you could also include wordtune.com that would be amazing

This is super helpful! Thank you! Also a heads up - you may need to refresh Overleaf when you first install this extension and go back to an existing Overleaf tab.

Wow, just awesome. For the longest time I've just been grumbling about how bad the Overleaf spell check is and that I can't use Grammarly...how wrong I was. This is great, does what is intended!

Overall, a fantastic extension. However, it is a little buggy around citations and scientific notations where certain words/sentences go missing.

I had been looking for something like this for a long time. Thank you!

Great plugin, does what it says. It's a bit rough around the edges. Some latex commands are not removed and other times the plugin removes too much. But that doesn't affect the original latex text itself so the impact is only positive. I do wish that when accepting a change just the word is updated rather than the whole line. If track changes is on, then a whole paragraph will be shown as edited when just one word was changed.

Works perfectly so far. I did a version comparison right after my first use of this extension. Works perfectly. Changes are synced back. No worry of destructing the Latex syntax.

Just started to use it and it does take a while to get a hang of (maybe because of my adblocker) but it even integrates with my grammarly and I can configure settings right from overleaf! Thank you!

This is fantastic! Thank you for doing what neither Grammarly nor Overleaf were capable of. A simple and elegant solution. NOTE: If you install the extension with Overleaf already open, you will have to refresh the Overleaf page to get this extension working. Not the developers fault and takes 3s to do.

It's a great tool. A small bug for scientific writing. It does not detect citations and would mistakenly raise errors. Hope the author could fix this later.

A bit visually janky, but works like a dream. Perfect for overleaf and grammarly. Cheers Robin
