Questions tagged [android-spellcheck]

The Android platform offers a spelling checker framework that lets you implement and access spell checking in your application. The framework is one of the Text Service APIs offered by the Android platform.

To use the framework in your app, you create a special type of Android service that generates a spelling checker session object. Based on text you provide, the session object returns spelling suggestions generated by the spelling checker.

LifeCycle

LifeCycle

To initiate spell checking, your app starts its implementation of the spelling checker service. Clients in your app, such as activities or individual UI elements, request a spelling checker session from the service, then use the session to get suggestions for text. As a client terminates its operation, it closes its spelling checker session. If necessary, your app can shut down the spelling checker service at any time.
