Wordle Solver

How to Use the Wordle Solver

The Wordle solver works by filtering all five-letter English words using the feedback from your guesses. Enter the letters you've tried in each row, then click each letter to cycle through its state: green means the letter is correct and in the right position; yellow means the letter is in the word but in the wrong position; gray means the letter is not in the word at all. Click "Find Words" to see every remaining valid answer.

1. Type your guessed letters in the grid rows. Each row represents one Wordle guess.
2. Click each letter to set its color: green → correct position; yellow → wrong position; gray → not in word.
3. Fill in as many rows as you've guessed so far — more feedback gives fewer possible answers.
4. Click Find Words to see all remaining valid five-letter words that match your constraints.

Wordle Strategy Tips

• Start with high-frequency letters. Opening words that include E, T, A, O, I, N, S cover the most common English letters. STARE, CRANE, RAISE, and SLATE are popular starting words because they hit five high-frequency letters.
• Use yellow letters. Yellow letters are in the word but in the wrong position. Your next guess must include that letter in a different column. The Wordle solver handles this automatically — every result shown uses your yellow letters correctly.
• Avoid repeated gray letters. Guessing a gray letter again wastes a turn. Use the solver to confirm which letters are eliminated before choosing your next word.
• Aim for green letters early. Locking in green letters significantly narrows the field. After two guesses with multiple greens, the solver often returns fewer than 10 candidates.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many words does it search?

The solver checks all five-letter words in the ENABLE dictionary — a comprehensive 170,000-word list that covers the full range of valid Wordle answers. The New York Times Wordle uses a curated subset, so some less common words from ENABLE may not appear in the official game.

Does it work for Wordle variants like Quordle or Octordle?

Yes — the solver's output is a list of all words matching your constraints. For multi-board Wordle variants, run the solver separately for each board's feedback.

Does it give away the answer?

The solver shows all words that remain possible given your feedback — typically several to dozens of candidates after the first few guesses. It narrows your options without necessarily revealing a single answer, which keeps the puzzle engaging while eliminating frustrating dead ends.
