A number of computer programs and phone apps have built in spell-checkers. If the word you have used is not one which the computer/phone recognizes, it marks it with a squiggly red line. This does not necessarily mean that you have spelled the word wrong: it could be a proper noun, or a slang word, or a spelling which is not used by the geek who created the program. The squiggly line is only an alert; you must decide if the word actually needs changing.
