How do I specify language for spell checking?

Outline uses the system’s spellchecker, which automatically detects the language based on context and your keyboard settings.

As an example, if you want to ensure it consistently uses UK English spelling, here are a few steps you can take:

On macOS:

1. Open System Settings → Keyboard → Text Input.
2. Under Spelling, select “British English” instead of “Automatic by Language”.
3. This will enforce UK English spellchecking across compatible apps, including Outline.

On iOS/iPadOS:

1. Go to Settings → General → Keyboard → Keyboards.
2. Add “English (UK)” to your keyboard list.
3. While typing, switch to the UK English keyboard to influence spellchecking.
4. Also, check Settings → General → Language & Region and ensure English (UK) is prioritized in the Preferred Languages list.
