Doesn't integrate for proofing as well as some extensions such as Grammarly. I just started using it today, but so far, I've had to copy/paste my text into Styleguide to make it work. For the money, this app should work seamlessly.

Rated one up from today because Lingofy went out of their way on this holiday to hold a special zoom for me where they could see somehow my account is acting as corrupted. I really want this to work. I have used tools like this for other styles. APStylewriter have also been as helpful as possible and set up a ticket page for me where i was able to organize all the screenshots showing my issues.

Do not buy!!! This app is absolute garbage. I wish I could get a refund. The AP Stylebook site should be embarrassed to be selling this. Previous commenters have noted issues with the app. Lingofy does not catch the use the Oxford comma. (Grammarly does this well, so this function is possible.) The app also does not notify you about incorrect use of capitalization and punctuation on bulleted lists. A waste of money and misleading advertising.

It catches very few things in the AP style guide. The webinar on the AP website repeatedly stressed that Lingofy is better than other such tools because it can understand the full context of your writing and figure out where the errors are. The reality is that it can't even see basic diction errors (that are cataloged in the AP guide) such as further vs. farther, lay vs. lie, or hanger vs. hangar. If you give it a combined error such as "US navy", it fails to recognize that "US" should be "... Show more

Does not work in google docs. It misses every mistake.

Missed every typo on the page. Only has three dictionaries (and only one English dictionary, US). Doesn't actually do anything that I can see.

Very useful – corrects my spelling mistakes and let me build and use my own style guide.
