   Not a fan of the current state of Writing Tools in iPadOS 27. Given that was the main feature I wanted to test, I'm a bit miffed.

     @WarnerCrocker Basically, they’re not working on the current beta. The Writing Tools toolbar button in Pages does nothing. There is no option for Writing Tools in a pop-up menu on selected text. I was able to get the Siri app to proofread selected text by invoking it from the pop-up menu and typing “Proofread” into the Ask Siri field. But there’s no UI to review suggested changes like some apps currently present. Unusable.

     @ianRobinson Do you think it's just due to beta 1 issues?

     @ianRobinson It should be an interesting journey through the summer then.

     @WarnerCrocker I might backtrack into Grammarly again for a bit.

     @ianRobinson Makes sense given that you need to make a living.
