Feature Request: Chat Input Autocomplete and Spell Check #186

Open CWhits opened 1 year ago

CWhits commented 1 year ago

While using the chat interface of your application, I've noticed that there currently isn't a feature that provides autocomplete or spell check functionality. This often slows down the messaging process and can sometimes lead to avoidable typing errors.

I'd like to propose the implementation of an autocomplete and spell check feature for the chat input.

Autocomplete: The system should provide suggested words or phrases while the user is typing, making the process of composing a message quicker and more convenient. The suggestions should be contextually relevant and adjust dynamically based on the words that the user has already typed.

Spell Check: The system should highlight spelling errors in real-time, underlining the incorrect words, and providing a way for users to correct them via suggestions. This would be highly beneficial in preventing avoidable typos or misspelled words.

Adding autocomplete and spell check functionality to the chat feature will greatly enhance user experience by making communication more efficient and accurate.

Thank you for considering this request. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions or if there are any aspects of the feature request that need further clarification.

Do you find this useful in other apps? I find that the autocomplete is rarely correct and just distracts me
