Spell Checker Apps and Alternatives

Spell checkers are specialized apps that will highlight words that may not have been spelled correctly.
Spell checking apps will usually use a wide range of notification methods to alert users that a word is misspelled, ranging from underlining the word to playing a predefined sound alert.
These type of apps are typically based on two components: a set of rules for text scanning and word identifying, and an algorithm that automatically compares the words to the built-in dictionary (an integrated list that contains correct words).
Spell checkers may be either standalone apps capable of monitoring other 3rd party applications, or they may be integrated within larger products, like office suites, word processors, email clients or even web browsers.
