Since I use my phone to write, I decided to give Grammarly's keyboard application a try. My phone warned me that the app can collect data while I write, which essentially makes it spyware. This made me question if the app is good enough to outweigh its breach of privacy, so I made a little 'test' to judge how many errors it can spot:
Grammarly fixed this one easily.
The program barely changed anything and just focused on shortening some phrases. It failed to realize that the sentence is waaaay too long with a lot of commas.
No obvious change was made for this sentence. However, Grammarly informed me that (y'know) is an unknown word.
The app didn't find a problem with this sentence.
The app spectacularly failed to spot even the most obvious mistake in this sentence.
The same issue as the previous sentence is seen, as Grammarly decided that adding a hyphen was the only problem with this statement.
In conclusion, the mobile keyboard app for Grammarly, in my opinion, is a complete waste of time and is not worth giving up your privacy for even if you aren't very proficient in English.

My nephew, who's a carpenter, visited me today to fix my leaky ceiling, which has been causing a lot of trouble as my cat, a cute ginger kitty, always tried to drink the water that is definitely not safe to drink due to the fact that it is currently raining acid caused by the local mad scientist. -> My nephew, who's a carpenter, visited me today to fix my leaky ceiling, which has been causing a lot of trouble as my cat, a cute ginger kitty, always tried to drink water that is not safe to drink because it is currently raining acid caused by the local mad scientist.
