How to remove a word added to the spellcheck dictionary

I have accidentally added a word to the Miro spellcheck dictionary by a miss-click. How would I access the added words and remove it from Miro - I dont want to perpetually misspell ‘guard’ - or is it ‘gaurd’!

Is this even a Miro option, or do I need to access the dictionaries on my PC and change them.

I am using the desktop version.

Thanks!

Hi @Huw Williams!

Thanks for the interesting question! 🧐

Apparently, Miro browser version's spell-checking function is pulling the necessary information from the browser's base settings. For Miro desktop app, the default native spellchecker of a particular OS is enabled.

So yes, any accidentally added words in a desktop app need to be removed from the custom dictionary directory on your PC. 🙂

Hope this clears things up!
