Does Page's update 15.1 affect the Grammarly app?

I updated Pages to 15.1, and now my Grammarly App won't work properly. It cannot find any text when I type. Is there a compatibility problem? How do I fix this?



MacBook Air 13″, macOS 15.6

Grammarly 9.96.0 was last updated Jan 13. It still reports as (1.150.0.0) on its Settings panel though. This version is not working with Pages v15.1, though it is active in a Word 16.105.2 document. I do not have a Grammarly account that I sign into since I am SPAM averse.


There is no user fix. Grammarly will need to update their application to work with Pages v15.1, and provided they choose to do so, any timeframe would only be known by Grammarly.


Your profile shows macOS 15.6. That is the first version of Sequoia to support Pages v15.1. Unless you have already done so, I recommend that you update to Sequoia v15.7.3 via System Settings > General > Software Update. On that panel scroll past the Tahoe upgrade section and you will see where you can just update Sequoia.


Tested: macOS Sequoia v15.7.3, Tahoe 26.2.1

Grammarly has next to no support and chat says they don't support Apple. I bought it because it did and I recently paid for my subscription again.

I'm not sure what whoever told you that meant. Grammarly, as a product, is certainly intended to work on Macs. They have both a dedicated Mac app and a Safari extension.


Grammarly recommends that you download the app. Have you tried that?

I have the free Grammarly for Mac version that was last updated in Jan 2026. I purposely do not have a Grammarly account. The free version presently does not work with Pages v15.1. Maybe this is a Grammarly ploy to drive people to the Pro version… 🙃

Good to be aware of the difference. Thanks. There are lots of good reasons for not having a subscrption.

You will be greeted by a Grammarly sign-in panel after clicking the Get Grammarly for Mac button at the link. Until you satisfy this screen, you will not be able to get Grammarly for Mac. We used to be able to get the Grammarly for Mac app without this filtration nonsense, but no longer.

That I can't speak to. I downloaded it ages ago and don't remember the process. But my more important point was that Grammarly, as a product, is supported on Macs. So, I don't know what the poster meant by "chat says they don't support Apple."


Of course, the chat in question could be an AI and we know how trustworthy they are.
