### 4/5 — Love it; just one problem

*2016-10-29, version 3.0*

The free version is very annoying (intentionally I am sure) by frequently putting an ad page up when you try to use it.  In fact, at some times, it is impossible to use because you can't keep the ads away.  

The ad free version is great, however, if you don't mind laying out a few bucks for the purchase.  The only problem I have with it is that IF it allows you to ask for words incorporating one or more letters at beginning or ending, it is not at all clear how to use that feature.  The app seems to have been updated to match more of the accepted words than older versions too. Thanks for that.  I had stopped using it for awhile cuz of that.

### 4/5 — Very helpful!

*2016-10-24, version 3.0*

Helps me win all sorts of word games!

### 4/5 — Simply useful

*2014-12-06, version 2.0*

This is a great adjunct to games and puzzles with words. It helps to grow a vocabulary and expand horizons of knowledge even though it' simple to use.

### 4/5 — Great APP for Scrabble players

*2013-09-03, version 2.0*

Easy to use; straight forward and simple. It has the ability to remember ten racks at once. It also allows the user to display ten letters which comes in handy for utilizing existing letters on the board. This app also includes a dictionary for those who doubt the authenticity of a word - very handy the few times I've needed it. I would like to see an option for using existing board letters in their placement order. That would deserve five stars!

### 3/5 — Please update to support iPhone 5 display

*2013-07-07, version 1.5*

App works as advertise.   However has not been updated since 2010.  Needs update.  Thank you.

### 3/5 — Dodgy points totals

*2013-06-01, version 1.5*

App is good to use but I would love to know where the word points totals come from, are they based on the Scrabble tiles ? I've seen totals 3 points above what they should be based on the Scrabble tile points, occasionally they end up below too, not good, sort this out and the rating will be better...

### 5/5 — It works!

*2012-12-13, version 1.5*

Easy, fast and accurate!

### 5/5 — As Promised

*2012-06-03, version 1.5*

To the point...simple....user friendly...A+

### 4/5 — Great app!

*2012-04-17, version 1.5*

Very helpful app!

### 5/5 — 👍

*2012-02-08, version 1.5*

I've used this for a while, it's really very useful, informative, simple. It would be helpful to have the 2 letter words appear when you put in the complete rack. I'd also like to switch up the background colors sometime, like switching colors with the different racks.

### 5/5 — Best!

*2011-12-31, version 1.5*

Love this app-so helpful! The only improvement would be 3 letter words.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2011-12-19, version 1.5*

Only use it when i get really stumped or am losing badly and need to get caught up, but it works perfectly and makes you learn by lookingup the definitions,metc!

### 1/5 — Misses too many possible words!  Is  it reliable.

*2021-02-06, version 4.4*

The title says it all.

### 1/5 — Incomplete Dictionary

*2019-07-21, version 4.4*

I paid for the premium version. I am playing classic WWF. I had the letters: DUNKLAG. The results did not list ‘KULAN’ as an option. This has happened many times. I will not be recommending this app unless the dictionary is updated.

### 1/5 — Totally not working since last update

*2019-02-11, version 4.0*

App support also does not work
Email undeliverable 
Help

### 1/5 — App purchase

*2016-10-26, version 3.0*

Was not able to get it on my iPhone after I purchased the app.

### 1/5 — R

*2013-06-22, version 1.5*

This app is jus mediocre;( I'm not happy that I paid for the full version.

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2011-08-15, version 1.5*

Don't buy this ( or even get for free ) it's rubbish . They need a definition of anagram for a start ...... It doesn't solve them ....

### 2/5 — Annoying

*2017-07-20, version 3.1*

It used to be a good app, but now a constant stream of ads interrupt you every time you look up a word. Completely annoying. I'm shopping for an alternate app.

### 2/5 — It works but…

*2012-06-16, version 1.5*

This app does what it says, but since it has not been updated in almost 2 years it doesn't work as well or as smoothly as it should or could. 
For starters, even though called WWF Lookup, it must use a different dictionary than WWF. For example, this app says "Iraq" is a viable word, but it won't play in WWF. 
The interface is generally a bit clunky. I also experience frequent crashes on ios 5 and above. The app needs to have some way to identify Racks 1-10 with a custom name. Sorting buttons near the top of the screen and forward/back buttons are too small and often result in tapping the wrong button and going somewhere you don't want to go. 
I have contacted the developer on this and have never heard a word. Very bad form for someone who is actively trying to sell more copies of this app.

### 2/5 — Please!!!!!!!!

*2010-11-28, version 0*

Let me see valid two letter words!!!!!!!!

### 3/5 — Helpful

*2019-11-02, version 4.4*

The app is very helpful, but the big panel with the definition and other information is really obnoxious. It takes up half the screen with the word “Welcome.” There should be an option to make it go away.

### 5/5 — Very handy

*2020-10-23, version 4.4*

Great resource when the word is on  the tip of your brain, and you just cannot think of it. Very easy to make use of when trying to solve scrabbled letter puzzles.

### 5/5 — Mumzy the Great

*2019-10-11, version 4.4*

This app helps greatly. I learn new words all the time.

### 5/5 — Subscription

*2019-03-11, version 4.4*

A little upset that I have had to pay again when changing phone

### 5/5 — Finally Works!

*2019-03-02, version 4.4*

Thank you. With all the recent updates, WWF Helper finally works with my new iPhone XR.

### 5/5 — WWF look up

*2017-01-14, version 3.1*

Awesome and very informative

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2016-11-09, version 3.1*

Thanks for this app. Does what it says.

### 5/5 — Wwfh

*2016-09-13, version 2.0*

Just awesome!

### 5/5 — Brilliant!

*2016-06-06, version 2.0*

I've used this app for years. Just updated to the paid version and am so pleased.  There are 10 boards you can utilize for the games you are playing. Just put in your letters and it gives you a variety of words to use. You can use the space bar to put in a blank tile. It gives you more options. Also you can add a letter from the board to see if you can place on that letter.  Also the lookup page is a great tool. Here too use the space bar before or after your word and it will help you place letters to an existing word on the board. You can organize your words with 3 options: word, length, or score. So many options to help you play WWF well!

### 5/5 — WWF help

*2014-08-05, version 2.0*

Great app for scrabble and WWF!

### 5/5 — Review

*2014-03-23, version 2.0*
