### 3/5 — Too many ads

*2026-09-06, version 2.2.5*

I love the app but there are just too many ads

### 2/5 — If it ain’t broke…

*2026-08-21, version 2.2.5*

DO NOT FIX IT! 
Do developers bother to use the apps they are developing? 
Now it’s TAP TAP TAP TAP to do what one TAP used to do. 

Screens jumping back and forth between results and editing (very annoying) and the X no longer resets all fields. If you’ve added extra criteria it will stay there even if you input new letters. 

Also there is now a stupid prompt in the input field which you have to TAP in order to get the keyboard up. We know you can use wildcards, we don’t need telling. 

An update should make things simpler, not harder.

### 2/5 — Please remove ads for Royal King/Match games.

*2026-08-15, version 2.2.4*

I close every time they come on. They are the most annoying ads ever!

### 2/5 — Repeat

*2026-08-04, version 2.2.4*

Too many of the games are same over and over. Will cancel when this subscription is over

### 2/5 — Don’t bother buying

*2026-07-27, version 2.2.3*

Don’t buy! You still get a lot of annoying ads, it doesn’t seem any different after paying for it.

### 3/5 — Ads

*2026-07-13, version 2.2.3*

These ads for Kalshi never close.

### 4/5 — Commercial’s

*2026-07-12, version 2.2.3*

Stop all the commercials

### 5/5 — Very helpful.

*2026-07-12, version 2.2.3*

Cool site.

### 2/5 — Bad Ads

*2026-07-02, version 2.2.2*

Too much ads and sometimes they are appropriate

### 2/5 — Dislike Updated App

*2026-07-01, version 2.2.2*

I used this app and found it very easy to use, visually simple, comfortable and useful. With this update the app is visually jumbled, confusing and very unappealing, taking a lot of work just to pick out what was once useful about it.

### 3/5 — Update Sucks

*2026-07-01, version 2.2.2*

The update done yesterday, 6/26, messed up word finder. 
They are now in alphabetical order not in most likely to be right order. The little number in parentheses next to word is gone. It has ADS now too, ugh!!🤷🏼‍♀️

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2026-06-30, version 2.2.2*

I love this app, really helps me solve my words.

### 4/5 — Need more space to put bad letters

*2026-06-29, version 2.2.1*

Would like to be able to isolate more letters!!

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-06-28, version 2.2.1*

Great app

### 1/5 — Ads are the worst

*2026-08-08, version 2.2.4*

I immediately deleted the app as soon as the ad went for several minutes. Very frustrating.

### 1/5 — Ads galore

*2026-07-24, version 2.2.3*

If you like closing down apps because you can’t clear out of endless ads, then you will love this app.   App itself is very good, however

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2026-07-21, version 2.2.3*

Too many ads

### 1/5 — Wordfinder

*2026-07-16, version 2.2.3*

It would be a great app but the ads basically make it unusable. They are on too often and go for too long.

### 1/5 — New update ruins the app

*2026-07-05, version 2.2.3*

The new update ruined the functionality of the app and has more intrusive advertising, full screen and unavoidable ads

### 1/5 — Update is AWFUL

*2026-06-30, version 2.2.2*

Update no longer displays the numbers of words remaining after each guess. Very disappointing

### 1/5 — Moronic update

*2026-06-19, version 2.2.1*

Terrible recent update of the U/I

Clearly done by someone/team that never uses the app and most certainly didn’t beta test this new design. Extra taps for everything, shockingly non-intuitive. Really bad job.

### 1/5 — Too many movements

*2026-06-18*

Especially for corrections or changes in letters. Preferred the old version.

### 1/5 — Hate the new format

*2026-06-14, version 2.2.0*

Don’t like the new format at all!  2x or 3x as many touches required. Please go back.

### 1/5 — New Wordfinder Suxs

*2026-06-13, version 2.2.0*

This new version is not user friendly. Why change to something new when it’s less efficient? Please bring back old version!!!

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Too many commercials

*2026-09-03, version 2.2.5*

Too many commercials

### 5/5 — Best help ever!!

*2026-08-28, version 2.2.5*

This is an excellent tool if you ever get stuck on a crossword puzzle or a word game that you’re playing. So many of the game companies want you to spend money to try to figure out a word and this solves all that.

### 5/5 — Help when you’re stuck

*2026-08-22, version 2.2.5*

Great app really helpful

### 5/5 — Noise

*2026-08-20, version 2.2.5*

I do not enjoy being blasted by loud adds in the middle of my searches. I understand the need for ads, but could you lower the surprise volume

### 5/5 — Excellent Word Generator

*2026-08-19, version 2.2.4*

My go-to word generator when I need help with a Words with Friends move.

### 5/5 — Great resource for puzzlers

*2026-08-18, version 2.2.4*

Love this app! I puzzle every morning before I begin my day. When I get stuck on any of the NYT puzzles this app can help with hints but not give away the answer, unless that’s what you want. And when playing scrabble this app makes all the difference

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-08-12, version 2.2.4*

Really helpful to aid children spelling

### 5/5 — Love!!!

*2026-07-30, version 2.2.4*

I love Words with Freinds! I get Great points!!! My friends says they never seen that word but it fit for a bunch of points!!
Couldn’t play so much without Wordfind!!!

### 5/5 — Great for word search

*2026-07-26, version 2.2.3*

I’ve used this app for years. Easy to use with little to no ads. Always been super helpful. Highly recommend.

### 5/5 — Great Customer Support

*2026-07-24, version 2.2.3*

They changed the format a while back at it was awful. I inquired and told them the problems I was having. They listened. They fixed some things to make it usable, but after some time all bugs were fixed. Thank you.
