In-App Writing Checks and Floating Suggestions
Grammarly's floating assistant brings writing support into the text fields people already use, including messages, email, social posts, and other mobile apps. It can flag grammar, spelling, and punctuation problems as you type, then present suggestions that you can review, accept, or dismiss without moving text into a separate editor. The setup flow demonstrates this purpose with a writing card and a clear Get started entry.
The companion experience also gives the assistant a practical home on the phone. Once enabled, the Grammarly widget can sit above the current app, report the number of suggestions, and provide a quick route into corrections. This workflow suits students, professionals, and multilingual writers who want immediate feedback while composing short messages or longer notes.
AI Rewrites for Tone and Clarity
AI rewriting adds a second layer beyond correcting visible mistakes. Select wording, open Grammarly's Assistant, and choose a prompt that can make a message shorter, more descriptive, more confident, or better suited to its intended tone. The Android experience is designed to offer alternative versions that users can compare before inserting one into the text field.
Prompt choices can be managed from Assistant Prompts in Settings, so the floating interface stays focused on the kinds of help you actually use. Tone guidance is useful for work messages, applications, customer replies, and social posts where the same idea may need a formal, friendly, or persuasive delivery. The result is a flexible revision loop rather than a one-click replacement.
Drafts, Copying, and Companion Workflows
Drafts gives Grammarly a dedicated writing space for quick notes, message ideas, and text that needs a little more attention before it is shared. The companion screen provides a Write something entry, letting users prepare content inside Grammarly, refine wording with the assistant, and then move the finished text to another app when it is ready. It is a helpful option when the destination app is not open yet.
The Drafts area sits alongside Settings, Appearance, Blocked apps, feedback, the demo tutorial, support, and the privacy policy. That layout makes recurring tasks easy to find: start a note, return to a saved idea, copy a polished version, or remove a draft that is no longer needed. It also keeps everyday writing separate from the surrounding Android apps.
Settings, Appearance, and App-Specific Control
Settings turns Grammarly into a writing companion that can be shaped around a personal routine. Users can switch the assistant on or off, enable a notification quick toggle, choose a language or dialect, select Assistant Prompts, add a Quick Settings tile, and decide which apps should be blocked. Voice to text is also available through the floating assistant for hands-free drafting.
Appearance controls make the widget less intrusive while preserving access to suggestions. The Active and Idle views expose size controls, compact display, transparency, and an undo button for the last replacement. These choices are useful when Grammarly needs to stay visible during focused writing, stay minimal during casual messages, or disappear from selected apps without removing the whole companion setup.
