Fill in the grid exactly like your Wordle game: type each guess, then tap a tile to cycle it gray (not in word), yellow (wrong spot), or green (correct spot).
Type a full 5-letter guess into a row and tap its tiles to set the colors — suggestions will appear here.
Every Wordle guess gives you three kinds of clues: a green tile means that letter is correct and in the right spot, a yellow tile means the letter is in the word but in a different spot, and a graytile means the letter isn’t in the word at all (unless it appears elsewhere in the same guess in a different position).
Re-create your Wordle grid above exactly as it looks in the game — type each guess, row by row, and tap tiles to match the colors you were shown. Suggestions update as soon as a row is complete.
New to Wordle? Start with our guide to the best Wordle starting words.
Starting words with common letters like A, E, R, S, and T narrow the field fastest. Words like CRANE or SLATE cover a lot of ground.
Once a letter is confirmed absent, avoid reusing it in later guesses — every new letter should test fresh information.
A yellow letter is in the word — try it in a different slot on your next guess rather than dropping it.
If several answers remain, a guess that tests untried letters — even if it can't win outright — can split the field better than guessing blind.
Hard Mode is an optional setting (tap the ⚙️ icon in Wordle) that changes one rule: once a letter comes back green or yellow, every later guess has to use it — a green letter must stay in the same spot, and a yellow letter has to reappear somewhere. It sounds like a small tweak, but it removes an entire category of guesses, so whether it’s worth turning on really depends on what you want out of the game.
You can't burn a turn testing fresh letters — each guess has to build on what you already know, which feels closer to genuine deduction than trial and error.
A lot of players treat Hard Mode as the “real” game and only compare scores earned with it on, since Normal Mode lets you sidestep the constraints entirely.
With no easy elimination guesses available, a strong vocabulary and a feel for common letter patterns matter more than they do in Normal Mode.
A guess that ignores your clues to test untried letters (even one that can't possibly be the answer) often narrows the field faster than any guess that must obey every green and yellow.
When two or three words satisfy every clue but share no way to tell them apart, Hard Mode won't let you play a word that would distinguish them — you're reduced to guessing.
Most players take more guesses on average under Hard Mode, precisely because it removes the flexible, information-maximizing guesses that Normal Mode allows.
Either way, this tool plays nicely with Hard Mode: every suggestion above is already filtered to match every green and yellow tile you’ve entered, so any word in the list is a legal next guess whether or not Hard Mode is switched on.

It's meant to help after you've already played your own guesses — a study aid for narrowing possibilities, not an auto-solver that plays for you.
Make sure the row you're using is a full 5 letters and every tile color matches exactly what Wordle showed you.
Wordle gives you six guesses, so the grid mirrors your actual game board — fill in as many rows as you've played.
