Jira/ Ecc spell check

Question

Hi, I'd like to know how to add a spell check on the description and comments field on Jira ( we use ECC). I'm not the administrator of the project and have certain limitations as to what functionalities of the tool I can use. I know of the option discussed in this forum with setting up the spell check in my browser- I tried with Chrome and Firefox, it didn't work with either of them! Is it because I don't have administrative privileges or it's something else?

Grammerly only partly works - it doesn't support all the fields, for instance the story summary, and requires log in every time when you open up jira and also the spell check is not real time. i.e after you've typed the text, you need to open it in Grammerly to spell check it - I find it inefficient, especially during stories grooming with the team.  Can you please share what other spell check options are available?Thx
