I have installed Firefox for Android 147.0.2 (Build #2016140255) on Android 15. In the Android setup spell checking is enabled.

But in text editor fields on websites spell checking doesn’t work - the red underline with wrong words isn’t displayed.

How to enable spellchecking with Firefox for Android?
