Bug? Spellcheck Not Working Properly

Hello! I’ve been a Bear Pro user for a while now and love it. However, my spellcheck feature is not working correctly. When I go to check the box for “Check Spelling While Typing,” it does not activate. It also does not make corrections unless I manually have the program check for errors. Here is a video example of what is happening. Thanks for all you do! (NOTE: I searched for a similar issue for a while and didn’t find anything. If there is a solution that I missed, let me know!)

Thanks!

Computer Specs: I am on an Apple M1 running Sonoma 14.6.1

Hello! Can you check if TextEdit has the same issue? I’m afraid Apple made some changes to the Spellchecker service and it’s not behaving correctly today.

I checked, and TextEdit has the same issue. Bummer!

I just wanted to give an update that I upgraded to MacOS Sequoia and still having the same issue. There has to be some setting that is blocking this feature for me somewhere on my Mac. Really odd!

Yep, having the same issue after updating to macOS 15 (Sequoia).
