How to escape this? Don’t need them. Pls stop ### 2/5 — 😐 *2026-05-18, version 4.2* This game is hard if you think it is a word your 90% WRONG I got a word that if I thought was right on my last try and it was wrong they be thinking the most random we we not be thinking this is hard for beginners they should make it a little easier ### 4/5 — Wordie *2025-03-19, version 3.12* I play Wordie daily & enjoy the game, I enjoyed it that much I paid to opt out of the adverts. However a few weeks later I had an update your iPad request which I did and now the adverts have come back. I have emailed support twice and as of yet no response which is disappointing. So do I have to pay each time my iPad is updated to opt out of the adverts if so this is disappointing. I have also pressed the restore button on the app and this has not sorted the problem out. Frustrating! ### 4/5 — Grid size *2025-01-05, version 3.12* I’ve been playing Wordie for a few years , I love it and I have the ad free version. But about a month ago the grid has gotten so small it’s very hard to see! How to I get it to revert to normal size? ### 4/5 — Bummed *2024-07-19, version 3.11* I like playing but I only get five tries and then it says I got X/7 ### 3/5 — Later versions are getting worse *2024-07-07, version 3.11* I’m trying to work out to downgrade back to previous versions. The last two updates are getting worse - I understand the desire to include ads, but the interface is also getting worse. ### 4/5 — Ad time a waste *2024-05-21, version 3.9* Hate the ad watch requirement after two fails ### 4/5 — Wordl *2024-04-25, version 3.8* Since adverts have been introduced I have lost the enjoyment of Wordl. It breaks the concentration as soon as you begin the game. ### 5/5 — Five lines now? *2024-03-21, version 3.3* I always enjoyed going Wordie every day. Recently there are only 5 lines instead of 6, and the colors have changed and now there are ads after 3 guesses. What happened? ### 5/5 — Used to be 5 stars! *2024-03-18, version 3.2* Hate this new update! ### 2/5 — Why? *2024-03-18, version 3.2* All the other games I play of this sort give me six chances to guess the word. Why did you change it to five ? Much less enjoyable now. ### 3/5 — Why go to 5 guesses *2024-03-17, version 3.2* Why go from 6 guesses to 5? Was telling everyone about the app. Then you change it. ### 2/5 — Last Update Dud *2024-03-16, version 3.1* The last Update is a disaster!! Results show that there are six tries but the daily grid only has five?!?! The new color scheme hurts my eyes!?!? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not fun anymore *2026-07-25, version 4.4* This used to be relaxing and fun. However, recent updates have added useless features that are distracting and detract from the experience. If it is not broken, don’t fix it. ### 1/5 — Great if you like ads for p*rn *2025-12-27, version 3.15* Have been playing this for years, then the last couple days they changed the ads layout and now I'm getting ads for porn. There are lots of other options for word games so I'm moving on! ### 1/5 — Ads too long *2024-08-19, version 3.12* I don’t mind ads, but these stay open for a long time. I’m deleting the app. ### 1/5 — Too many ads! *2024-04-14, version 3.8* This was a lot of fun to play before all the ads. They just keep coming. Deleted. ### 1/5 — Update Ruined My Fav App *2024-04-01, version 3.6* I’m writing this review and then deleting the app. It now allows only 5 guesses, not six like other similar Wordle-like puzzles. Why mess with success? This used to be my favorite app. It was always a challenge with my friends to see who could get it in the fewest guesses. Trying to tweak a winner is foolish. Goodbye! ### 1/5 — Not what they sold me *2024-03-18* They sold me a game akin to Wordle. Then, they change it completely. I asked for a refund and was told it wasn’t their problem. ### 1/5 — Update Ruined My Fav App *2024-03-16* I’m writing this review and then deleting the app. It now allows only 5 guesses, not six like other similar Wordle-like puzzles. Why mess with success? This used to be my favorite app. It was always a challenge with my friends to see who could get it in the fewest guesses. Trying to tweak a winner is foolish. Goodbye! ### 1/5 — Ruined with ads! *2024-02-29, version 2.2* My wife and I enjoy playing this game and sharing our results with each other in a friendly competition. Now you’ve went money hungry like everyone else and throwing in ads in after 3 guesses. I was accepting of it because you could skip the ads after 5 seconds. TODAY I HAD 3 ADS AT A MINUTE EACH THAT WHERE NOT SKIPPABLE!!!!!!!! It looks like it is time to find another game to play. ### 1/5 — Ads ruined this app *2024-02-12, version 1.10* Is there a way to purchase this app? I would gladly pay for it than tolerate the very annoying ads. ### 1/5 — Ruined it with Ads *2024-02-09, version 1.10* App update yesterday now forces you to watch an Ad after 3rd guess. No way to opt out. Ruined the App and whole experience. Deleting App. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Fun to play *2026-08-22, version 4.4* I play a lot of word games each day and this one of my favorites. The placeholder feature lets me rearrange letters and look for answers without resorting to pencil and paper. ### 5/5 — I want *2026-04-02, version 4.2* I want to get the no ad for $1.00 but I don’t understand how it works and how to cancel if I quit ### 5/5 — Fun brain exercise *2026-04-01, version 4.2* This game gets my brain working every morning. ### 5/5 — Veteran *2026-01-02, version 3.16* A daily challenge for my mind. Thanks best word game to keep my mind sharp at age 93 ### 5/5 — Great game *2025-09-26, version 3.13* Very nice ### 5/5 — Goals *2025-09-18, version 3.13* One is lucky, two is the goal! ### 5/5 — The Word Game *2025-08-31, version 3.13* Challenging, Sometimes aggravating, but always fun! ### 5/5 — Great For Seniors *2025-04-18, version 3.12* Great way to start your morning! ### 5/5 — This game is so fun. *2024-05-11, version 3.9* I play it all day ### 5/5 — Ads! *2024-05-10, version 3.9* Loved this game, not a fan of the new ‘add break’ since updating. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
