Price History of ULU

Description of ULU

ULU is a word-lookup and tournament adjudication tool useful for a variety of word games, including Scrabble®, Words With Friends®, and crossword puzzles. ULU comes equipped with both of the lexicons used in English-language Scrabble: the NWL2023 lexicon for North America, and the CSW2022 lexicon for the rest of the world. ULU's Search page enables you to find words that match letter combinations, with or without blanks and wildcards. It also finds words matching any pattern you name, words that contain only a subset of letters you name, words of a certain length, or any combination of these things at once. You can also limit search results to show only the number of matches or to show which blanks make matches. Tapping a word brings up a page of more detailed information about that word. ULU's Judge page lets you see whether or not words you type are all valid, as you would need when playing tournament Scrabble. ULU also includes a customizable timer for use in tournament Scrabble or in other games

  • I love this App

    It’s definitely helped me learn new words and new anagrams. I don’t know why but my iPad version won’t give me definitions. I’d pay for this app, just saying. I love tournament scrabble and I am improving yearly with study. This tool really helps.

    It’s tricky knowing what the word lists are, the abbreviations are confusing. Updating the app description here in the App Store would be nice — add latest lists and describe what they mean. For instance, the latest NASPA list has two for 2020. The one with the S is for school or students and has more ‘objectionable’ words removed.

    Thanks for such a handy tool!

  • Works for Me

    Albeit, this App has a couple of drawbacks when compared to Zarf which, to many, was the Gold Standard. However, ULU is more than I could have hoped for and, for our purposes (wife and I), it is exactly what we needed when we go head to head in our Scrabble competitions against each other. Thank you for developing this wonderful App.

  • Lives up to its name

    The only other feature I wish it had was definitions, but get that this a licensing issue or whatever. Thanks for an exceptionally useful tool, Seth!
