[Warning: I don’t use Heliboard]

It’s clearly spellchecking for English, when you need it to do so for Swedish. Based on that, I think that it is missing the Swedish dictionary, that you’ll need to download separately.

This official page confirms that Heliboard does have support spell checking for multiple languages, and explains how to download and install a dictionary. To keep it short:

  1. download the Swedish dictionary
  2. Go to “language” settings, click on “Svenska”, then the “+” next to “dictionary”. Then select the file that you’ve downloaded.

[Side note: your sample text made me crave some coffee. I didn’t.]

Lol. And thank you for the advice! I’ll try this out asap.

Problem still persists.

Added both the English and Swedish dictionary to the respective languages in Heliboard. I’m using GrapheneOS so maybe I can’t find the proper setting in settings.

Damn, that’s a shame. :/

Did you switch keyboard languages? If the keyboard language is set to something other than what you are typing in it will underline it (essentially throwing an error).

As far as I can tell Heliboard does not have a global spellcheck, you can’t add multiple languages and have it spellcheck anything but the selected language.

I no longer remember details, but it was something to do with HeliBoard’s dictionary and the system one. Have you checked they both have the right languages?

Spell checker is on, try to disable it. (I dont know if this answers your question)

Well, I do want the spell checker, problem is it’s marking words that are correctly spelled.

I think the settings for spell checker and autocorrection are different. For me (Fairphone 4) I have to set spell checking in the system OS menu where I also select my keyboard, unlike the autocorrection that’s part of the keyboard itself and hence in those settings.
