Delete. ### 4/5 — Good but one problem *2026-09-01, version 3.1.3* My problem is that I can’t play online for some reason . ### 2/5 — Ads *2026-09-01, version 3.1.3* Too many adds and not enough fun ### 2/5 — Lame version *2026-08-31, version 3.1.3* This isn’t the NYT Wordle. This one includes plurals and verb tenses, which is very lame. ### 2/5 — Adverts - horrendous *2026-08-30, version 3.1.3* Almost impossible to actually play. Never ending pop ups and games you can’t skip in between. ### 4/5 — Wordle *2026-08-29, version 3.1.3* Wordle ### 2/5 — Ads crash the game *2026-08-29, version 3.1.3* Downloaded the game. Had about 7 long ads in the span of 15 minutes. Barely got to play the game as the ad amount is crazy. On top of that the ads crash the game: freezes my screen or completely closes out the app. Would love to play this game but now after 15 minutes I will delete it as the ads are ridiculous ### 3/5 — Excessively long ads *2026-08-28, version 3.1.3* I was just forced to view a 2-minute ad. I would never purchase an item from a company that is so inconsiderate of my time. It’s time to find a different version with more reasonable ads. ### 2/5 — Annoying ads *2026-08-27, version 3.1.3* Love the concept but the ads make me avoid playing the game ### 1/5 — Comically large amount of pop ups *2026-08-25, version 3.1.3* Do you want to join the Ballon Race? *skip* How about the Tower of Books? *later* Earn a sticker! *later* Tap a gift box to claim your prize! *skip not available* *taps box* Congratulations, here’s your 20 coins! *taps Claim* Here’s a 30 second unskipable ad for an related game from the App Store *clicks faint X to close* Here is said game in the App Store! *click faint X again to close* Welcome to Today’s Wordle Puzzle, minutes later. Every day it’s like that. Get a clue. I’m uninstalling. Good riddance. ### 3/5 — Idk *2026-08-24, version 3.1.3* It’s my first couple of times and it’s kinda hard ### 1/5 — way too many ads it’s insane *2026-08-24, version 3.1.3* I haven’t played this game in like 4 months because the ads are so annoying and I think they got even worse. I can’t even play a single wordle because it’s trying to make me watch an ad no matter what I pick when the menu opens. I’ve closed the app like 6 times trying to restart when the ads pop up and each time it still tries to make me watch an ad. I have never seen a game with so many ads especially ones that make you watch one before you even play. ### 2/5 — Fun Game… when you can play it. *2026-08-24, version 3.1.3* Game is a lot of fun, but the amount of ads is ridiculous. Half the time you have to completely close the game and restart to get around an ad. Probably going to uninstall it honestly because the ads are so annoying and persistent. ### 1/5 — To many adds virus *2026-08-24, version 3.1.3* Stay away steals data ### 1/5 — Ads ads ads *2026-08-23, version 3.1.3* Too many ads ### 2/5 — Overheating phone *2026-08-23, version 3.1.3* I just discovered this game a few weeks ago and instantly got addicted. I played it all the time and love the tournaments. Unfortunately it started playing a ton of ads with pop ups that won't go away unless I restart the game and a banner with flashing lights that always runs at the bottom of the screen and keeps me from wanting to use it if I wake up in the middle of the night. The ads are overheating my phone. I worry about extra EMF exposure so I will stop playing this game. ### 4/5 — Bombarded by ads *2026-08-23, version 3.1.3* Had to uninstall as I was so sick of the constant barrage of adverts. Don’t recommend. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ads ads ads *2026-09-01, version 3.1.3* Cannot even play without ad pop ups. Don’t waste your time. I’m deleting. ### 1/5 — Bait and switch *2026-08-30, version 3.1.3* Makes you think you can play Wordle but then traps you into Ads for other games that then don’t allow you to go to complete your Wordle game. This app is a trap ### 1/5 — More ads than play *2026-08-30, version 3.1.3* The ads won’t close… so you are trapped for ages ### 1/5 — Too many pop ups and adds *2026-08-30, version 3.1.3* Bro, I just want to open the app, do my daily Wordle, then leave. 3 different pop ups then a 30 second add before I could even open the daily challenge made me delete this app so quick ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2026-08-29, version 3.1.3* You’ll be spending more time closing pop-ups and watching ads then guessing words. ### 1/5 — 1 star(to review) otherwise 0 stars *2026-08-29, version 3.1.3* This app sucks. Waaaaaay too many ads. Better off just playing online. Why do we even want apps like this??? ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-08-27, version 3.1.3* Too many ads interrupting right in the middle of a game with TIMERS!!! ### 1/5 — Ads locked *2026-08-26, version 3.1.3* Great job Meta! Your stupid ads on Wordle freeze! AI sucks ### 1/5 — Ads and clicks *2026-08-26, version 3.1.3* Way too many ads. I played 1 game and had to watch 3 ads before i finished. Not to mention all the other things you have to click just to start playing the game. So many popups of “gather more of this”, or “play this version now!” Just insane. I could have paid to get no ads but just out of principle i dont like that they do this just to get you to buy no ads. So uninstall instead. ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-08-25, version 3.1.3* Ive genuinely never seen an app worse for showing ads than wordle. I got about a 50+ star streak without seeing a single ad, but after that its rare you dont get an ad after every single word you do. Genuinely watching ads more than playing. Do not recommend at all ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Goot *2026-08-30, version 3.1.3* Goot job ### 5/5 — Hours of Fun *2026-08-27, version 3.1.3* Love this game so much!

Works very smoothly ### 5/5 — Wordle is great! *2026-08-19, version 3.1.2* Wordle is very fun and relaxing, very good for aeroplane trips ### 5/5 — Good job for helping people need help with words *2026-08-19, version 3.1.2* Everything else is good but I wish they could you a word idea first just to make it easier for me. ### 5/5 — Why 18+? Great game tho *2026-08-18, version 3.1.2* 12/07/26 This game is amazing, don’t get me wrong, but why is it 18+ even tho I played it when I was in primary school? Like… HUH Developer, if u see this, please can u explain why this is rated 18+. Please explain it like you are talking to an 11-14 year old. -Pud1526 Xoxo Edited- 23/07/26 Still no response, I’m getting a bit impatient. Edit 2- 17/08/26 I went back and looks at some other reviews and one said almost the exact same thing. Btw this was AFTER I sent my first unedited review. I’m quite disappointed Wordle. Disappointed indeed. ### 5/5 — Good *2026-08-11, version 3.1.2* Decent game but what’s up with my first few words being slurp, panty, racks --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
