I didn't think there was a stand-alone app for Messages, I thought it went through a tab in Chrome (or your browser of choice).

That looks like an unofficial "wrapper" for the Messages for Web interface: https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/60844/android-messages. You'd probably have to ask the developer about this.

Instead of using that wrapper app, what about just using your browser (i.e, Chrome or Safari)? I'd guess that spellcheck would work there. https://support.google.com/messages/answer/7611075?hl=en&ref_topic=7502209
