The app has access to a large dictionary that can provide you specific definitions for all your words, and an easy way to discover its conjugations, combinations, and more. The app even has full support for gender neutrality filter and a useful “Anti-Oups!” tool that will remind you to fix your spelling mistakes even after you have clicked Send on your emails in Outlook suite.

Thanks to the brand new Antidote Web, your Antidote+ subscription allows you to correct text from any device, including phones, tablets and Chromebooks.

Antidote Web

Antidote Mobile
Consult the dictionaries and guides on iPhone or iPad, even without Internet. Explore all the richness of English or French and test your knowledge in the Discoveries section.

One of the most praised elements of the Antidote app is its way of presentation and easy guides to fixing discovered problems in your texts. It provides clear markers for detected issues, short descriptions, and single-click recommendations. The guidance offered by Antidote can even be additionally customized by users, enabling them to set their own rules that can help them easily write specific documents needed for school, work, or personal use.

The app can be infused directly into your Microsoft Office Word and Outlook apps and can provide its services even directly from inside modern browsers such as Chrome and Firefox.  As an added bonus, you can also link its dictionary directly to your browser toolbar, enabling you to always have a powerful dictionary pop-up app close to you.

While the tool has become famous because of its ability to take control over the written English language, its latest versions also support one added language – French!

Installation and Use

Antidote dekstop app comes inside a very large installation package that weighs over 2GB in size and requires more than 6 GB of free space on your hard drive (more if you intend to install more than one language). Developers recommend having a PC with more than 8 GB of RAM memory, and a fast SSD hard drive for quicker access to a large number of files that the program works with.

After a quick installation, the tool will detect all of the compatible text editors and browsers present on your Windows 7/8/10 machine. Most users will experience Antidote through Microsoft Word, where their documents will finally get access to much more powerful grammar, style, and spell-checker tools that can find dramatically more mistakes than the Word’s built-in spellchecker. The app will be integrated as a new tab found on top of the app. This tab features easy access to its three core tools – Corrector, Dictionary, and Guides.
