## What is Spelling Queen Pangrams?

App version of the popular game, with many added features like the option to play together with friends & family on your Wi-Fi!
Each 7-letter game is generated on the fly by algorithm. There are over 4000 unique 7 letter games to play!

Work your way up from Novice, to Brilliant, to Mastermind, and on to win! There are only two rules to finding words and winning the game: words must be at least 4 letters long, and words must always use the center letter.

Some games have only 10 words to find, to win the spelling game... other ones have over 50 words! Use Help to get a word count that will tell you how big the challenge is, see how many you've found, and get hints. There's now also a Game of the Day which is the same for everyone, everywhere. 

Each game has at least one pangram - a word that uses all 7 of the game's individual letters. Some games have more than one!

The game's word list is a partial English dictionary of the most frequently used words that have 7 or fewer unique letters. In your game, you can customize your own personal word list! Here's how it works: if you enter a word that *is* in the English dictionary but *is not* in the game's list, you can add that new word to your own list. That new word will be included in future games, no matter which of your iCloud devices you are playing on!

### 1/5 — Upgrade not good

*2026-08-11, version 4.4*

Don't care for the change. Doesn't work well on iPad

### 4/5 — Great game

*2026-07-31, version 4.4*

Love this word game even though a lot of the words are nonsensical to me.

### 2/5 — Not living new format

*2026-07-19, version 4.4*

I used to really enjoy these word puzzles but really dislike the new format. Need to take a look at others out there.

### 5/5 — A couple of things

*2026-07-17, version 4.4*

I don’t like when the word box shrinks when you leave the game, and I don’t like the yellow coloring on the suggested beginning letters.  They are very difficult to see.

### 4/5 — What happened

*2026-07-15, version 4.4*

I have thoroughly enjoyed this app. Unfortunately, recent color change on hints makes this impossible for me to read.

### 1/5 — So so

*2026-07-13, version 4.4*

It is annoying that you ask for a review so frequently

### 4/5 — Great word game

*2026-07-12, version 4.4*

I've tried a few of these type of word puzzles and this is probably my favourite. I really like the ability to add more words to the dictionary. Just one thing that doesn't seem to work quite right is that short games are very often a lot more than just 25 words. Still a pleasure to complete but can take a lot longer.

### 3/5 — Get a better list.

*2026-07-07, version 4.4*

I love doing this, but I get very frustrated that I cannot use so many legitimate words. You need to get AI to make a better list. Or use the Anagram Solver app. Saffron is a word! So is retool. So many many others that I can’t remember but are not recognized as words.

### 5/5 — The hint

*2026-07-05, version 4.4*

The yellow writing is very small and not seen
Can you make it all black and bigger

### 3/5 — Have been playing for years

*2026-07-03, version 4.4*

I love playing Spell Queen, but I don’t like the new UI with the yellow and grey/white hints. It’s too hard to read.
