## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.7.6 — 2026-06-22

Bug fixes and streamlining.

### 1.7.0 — 2026-05-19

This release focused on the little things that make the app feel right.

The biggest fix: tap responsiveness after closing an ad. The lag is gone, so flipping between modules feels instant again.

Spelling Bee Helper is now completely unlimited and free for everyone. Search as much as you want.

We also moved the Clear Tray button onto the Filters box where it's bigger, easier to find, and pops in a warm marigold so you can't miss it.

Thanks for the feedback that shaped this update. More to come.

### 1.6.6 — 2026-05-13

Helpful layout and bug fixes. Added a "Clear Tray" button in the filters box.

NEW: Spelling Bee Helper. Type your 7 letters and explicitly mark the
center letter. We'll list every word in your dictionary that fits the
rules, with pangrams highlighted at the top.

NEW: Dictionary picker. Match the game you're playing. Tap the book
icon at the top of the home screen to switch between ENABLE (Words With
Friends and most casual word games), TWL06 (Scrabble in North America),
or SOWPODS (Scrabble internationally).

Faster, smarter Wordle Helper. The solver now uses the official NYT
answer and guess lists, so suggestions are quicker and stop including
words Wordle would never accept.

Refreshed look. New header with the WFC logo, redesigned search bar
with marigold focus ring and a clear Search button, restyled Menu with
sections and subtitles, and a fresh "Back to Selection" button.

...and
More bug fixes!

Thanks for playing!
