Thank you. *2023-07-23, version 2.1* Woot!umi ### 3/5 — Needs improvement *2023-01-08, version 2.1* I enjoy this app but it doesn’t include all available common words. ### 5/5 — Great App but… *2022-12-01, version 2.1* It didn’t transfer my Lists from my iPad to my iPhone. ### 5/5 — Word search *2022-04-02* Hate the adds but great for research! ### 4/5 — :) *2022-03-20, version 2.1* How do you get more search tokens 😭 ### 5/5 — The best app yes *2022-03-14, version 2.1* Excellent appyrs ### 5/5 — The Best *2021-12-23, version 2.1* Good for Scrabble and Quiddler ### 5/5 — Great program *2021-12-23, version 2.1* Best for Quiddler or Scrabble ### 2/5 — Ok, but too many ads *2021-12-21, version 2.1* The word checking part works fine but you need tokens that you can get from watching ads, unless you get premium. It also gives you ads randomly after searching a word. I’m uninstalling the app because of this. ### 2/5 — Unreliable *2021-06-28, version 2.1* Have been using the app for quite a while set to Collins 2019. We also use 2 versions of the official scrabble dictionary. We have found words that are listed as accepted in the app but are not listed in either dictionary. ### 5/5 — Very good *2021-03-15, version 2.0* Was very helpful ### 4/5 — Great tool to improve your game *2021-03-06, version 2.0* Pleased to recommend ... ### 2/5 — Validness *2021-01-30, version 2.0* Not valid bruh ### 5/5 — Convenient *2021-01-09, version 2.0* Great tool when playing Scrabble on iPad. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Up your game! *2026-04-04, version 2.2* At least 30% of all permitted words have ‘no definition available’! ### 1/5 — No good *2026-01-23, version 2.2* Half the English words I type it says are invalid! ### 1/5 — M *2022-01-24, version 2.1* The worse free app ever. Too many ads. There is an ad with nearly every word check. ### 1/5 — Issues *2021-11-09, version 2.1* The video won’t load ### 1/5 — no *2021-03-31, version 2.1* 0stars no like ### 1/5 — Never works *2021-01-26, version 2.0* Any time I type a word it never has a definition. Plus it’s loaded with annoying ads ### 1/5 — Makes no sense *2020-08-20, version 1.9* Here are a list of problems I have, 1st problem I have is the tokens, it says I do not have enough and to watch a five second ad to get five tokens. Fair enough but when I click on the video choice instead I get an at least 15 second ad instead of five for the same thing and I am NOT paying for this app 2nd problem is that when I go to the settings I do not know what the toggles are so I can not really know what I can change with the app for me 3rd problem is that when I want to see if a word is valid one of two things can happen, 1st thing that can happen is I get kicked out of the app when I try to see what it means and the word is not in the app where I saw it two seconds ago. 2nd thing that can happen is I see an ad the second I see if it is valid or not and then after the ad or when I click the x button I get kicked out and it is infuriating and like I said I am NOT paying for the app ### 1/5 — Way too many ads *2020-04-13, version 1.8.1* The ads that make noise are REALLY annoying ### 1/5 — Nice idea, doesn’t work with latest OS *2020-03-23, version 1.8.1* Missing words on the screen. Obviously not compatible with latest iPhone and iOS. ### 1/5 — It was good until the recent update *2020-02-22, version 1.7* I loved this so until the recent update. It automatically clears after being minimized for a few minutes. This is annoying. Please fix it. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Check your words *2026-04-02, version 2.2* The best for scrabble! ### 5/5 — Helpful *2026-01-16, version 2.2* Great for scrabble and banana grams! ### 5/5 — Great for Q-Less®️ *2024-12-26, version 2.2* I find Word Checker very useful for the solitaire crossword dice game Q-Less that is getting popular. I like this app best bc it’s isn’t specific to the word scores we have in Scrabble, and the programmable anagram function is extremely useful in determining if a Q-Less roll is solvable or not. If anyone reading this hasn’t checked out Q-Less yet, give it a whirl, in conjunction with this awesome app. (I’m addicted) ### 5/5 — Great for advanced solvers *2024-12-13* I find this very useful in competitive scrabble ### 5/5 — Brilliant *2024-11-20, version 2.2* I play scrabble and this helps win. Excellent app ### 5/5 — Sorry *2024-01-28, version 2.2* I love app because my friends callenge every word I write and sometimes I’m right and they are sorry. ### 5/5 — Great app but… *2023-12-12, version 2.1* This app works well for Scrabble and most of the ads are short and not too irritating. Tonight there was an ad that I could not get rid of. I actually had to delete the app and reinstall it to get it off the screen. Please keep junk ads like this out. ### 5/5 — Great app *2023-06-18, version 2.1* Love it ### 5/5 — Scrabble *2023-03-05, version 2.1* I love it Chea157 ### 5/5 — Love it (but not black background) *2023-02-27, version 2.1* Wish I could get rid of the new black background but can’t find any way in settings or elsewhere. Otherwise I love this wonderful aid! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
