Notepad on your Galaxy Book is getting a very useful feature

Microsoft's Notepad is one of the most used and useful applications on Windows. However, it misses out on a very basic yet very helpful feature that many other note-taking apps offer, and that’s the ability to check spelling. Well, that’s getting fixed.

In a blog post, Microsoft announced that is introducing spellcheck in Notepad. The company is rolling out this feature with an update to the app on Windows Insiders’ Canary and Dev channels. With the latest feature, Notepad will show a red line under a word that’s misspelled. You can right-click on it to see suggestions for the misspelled word. You also get autocorrect as a part of the package, which automatically corrects misspelled words.

What’s even more interesting is that spellcheck supports multiple languages. Microsoft says that the feature will be enabled by default for some file types and disabled for others, including the ones associated with coding. You can also turn the feature on and off globally from settings. With the latest feature, you can use Notepad on your Samsung Galaxy Book without the hassle of checking misspelled words line by line all by yourself.

At the moment, there’s no information about when Microsoft will roll out this feature to the stable version of Windows. Expect that to happen in the next couple of months as the company thoroughly checks the feature on Canary and Dev channels.
