About Ginger
Ginger checks spelling and grammar using the context of whole sentences, so it can suggest corrections a word-by-word checker would miss. A rephrase tool proposes alternative wording, which helps with long or wordy sentences, and double-clicking a word on a website shows synonyms and expressions.
It is available as a Chrome and Edge extension, as a Mac app, as a Windows app with Microsoft Office support, and on Android. It suits people writing emails and documents in English who want quick corrections wherever they type.
