Wordle! for Negative User Reviews
✓ Paid but still shows adsPaid $9.99 to remove ads but they still appear at the annoying rate - far worse than other aps.Version: 1.14.3
✓ To many ads to be playableIt seems like it could be a good game, but there are just way to many ads in it. There are ads at the bottom of the screen, there are ads between levels an worse of all it seems to randomly play an ad in the middle of a puzzle, this breaks my concentration and just causes frustration. I understand that they have to make money from the ads, but when there are so many I would rather just not play the game. I could pay for an ad free version, but as I’ve said, the ads have just made we frustrated, so I’m not going to pay for something that has made me frustrated..Version: 1.11.2
✓ Should be renamed Ad-dle!If I could give this game zero stars I would. I love word games and the challenges they bring especially on a timer BUT… the timer for this game, especially for the longer words is utterly ridiculous. If you misspell in your panic to get it in time, you can’t undo. You just lose and with it comes an ad. Talking of ads, they pop up when you’re mid-game and you get an ad after every game you lose. The amount of ads is disgraceful. This is the first game I’ve downloaded with this many ads! And I’m pleased I didn’t go for the ad-free version as I have read lots of reviews that say you still get ads when you’ve paid not to have them! Seriously?? Utterly disappointed in this game and I will be deleting..Version: 1.14.3
✓ 8000 ads8000 might be low actually. Double it.Version: 1.26.1
✓ How to ruin a really good game … 101This USED to be such a great game to play, even when they “updated” to increase the inordinate amount of adverts… I could deal with all of that because I also had the option to watch a 30-45 second advert if I’d missed a Daily Puzzle … or reached my sixth guess and needed to ‘try again’ … But since the last update, it’s asking for 150 game coins for both of those … and if you try to say no … your score is set back to zero!! I was on a score of nearly 9000 … but not any more. If game coins were plentiful it wouldn’t be an issue … but you earn just 6 coins solving a daily puzzle!!! So that’s almost a month’s worth of coins … ugh!! It’s no longer fun … and the devs will probably say “oh … you can BUY coins…!!” Sure. Are you not making enough money from the incessant adverts??? This is now just pure greed … and has totally ruined the experience..Version: 1.26.0
✓ Ads and more adsOriginally a great game until you are 30 sec in then the ad starts…and ruin this game completely. Look we understand the creator needs to make some money but the amount of ads are just horrendous. You can run into 2-3 ads by playing one game, just ONE! So yeah deleted this on the day three. What a shame. But plenty of similar words puzzle games out there that not so greedy..Version: 1.14.3
✓ Very disappointedI never write reviews but I just felt like I had to with this one. I really enjoy games like this BUT I feel ripped off by this one. I’ve paid for the ad free version and I’m still getting ads all of the time, constantly and it’s totally ruined the game for me. I know £2.50 in the grand scale of things isn’t huge but I haven’t got what I paid for. I have looked for different ways to contact the developers regarding my money back but leaving a review seems to be the only way? I would like to say some nice things about the game but I have only done one level because of how frustrating the constant ads are and when you exit the game and go back in it takes you back to the start. Don’t waste your time or money there are some really good puzzle apps out there and this really doesn’t stand up to the competition..Version: 1.9.0
✓ Not sure?!I downloaded wordle after seeing great reviews and my friends playing it. Wordle can be extremely annoying; it has SOOOOOOOO many ads! In the middle of a game an ad pops up!😠Also if you are advertising you want to show people different games, where here tha ads are always the same game advertising! Also, it is made for people who are working as it is extremely hard and needs time. It can get quite stressful as their is a timer and all too. But wordle is a great app otherwise: just a few changes!.Version: 1.10.0
✓ Was great until updateThis app was a lot of fun, with enough challenges and goals to keep you returning every day. Ad supported, so you knew you were going to get those unless you paid to remove ads. I don’t have a problem with that. You used to be able to replay a daily challenge by watching an ad, or continue your tournament streak by watching, as well. UNTIL NOW. Now, all the things you could do by watching an ad all cost 150 coins. I understand making money through ad sales. I also understand in-game currency as a business model. But now the developers want both. And it feels like a greedy cash-grab. A shame, because it was enjoyable enough to play daily before this new update. I’ll be deleting the game now. Oh, fyi - I’m the kind of player that DOES purchase something every month to help the developers on a game I enjoy and play daily. But this is just greedy. And no fun. Sad..Version: 1.26.0
✓ Cant even play the gameI get that you need to have ads to make money but it is too much. Between pretty much every guess is an advert, before your game, during your game, and after your game. It’s terrible and distracting! “Turn your phone onto airplane to escape the ads” as much as that works, it doesn’t save your proccess when you go onto airplane mode and I can’t always have that on for certain reasons. It’s a good idea because I love the daily wordles but don’t want to have to wait a day between playing but this isn’t any better because it’s just way too many ads.Version: 1.19.0
✓ Way too many adsI wasn’t sure how to rate this app. The game itself is fun and addictive. When I first downloaded it, I played nonstop. It’s a great challenge for your brain and a fun way to pass the time. After a few days, the ads started popping up. I usually don’t mind ads because that’s part of the free experience. The ads here though are obnoxious and incessant. When I open the app I have to watch an ad to get my daily coins. I can’t opt out. Before I can even see the game board, I have to watch another ad. After 1 to 2 guesses, there’s another ad. When I finally guess the word, another ad pops up. I’m sure I missed an ad in between there. Each ad lasts between 30 to 45 seconds. There is no way to skip the ads either. I was ending up spending more time watching the same boring Royal Match ads than actually playing the game. That wasn’t a good or engaging use of my time so I stopped playing. I gave it two stars instead of just one because the paid version might be better..Version: 1.46.8
✓ Could be greatVery addictive, but some major flaws: 1) cannot turn the irritatingly loud sound down a bit so have to turn my entire phone on to silent whilst playing 2) makers of the game didn’t consult a dictionary in the making of this game, so many legit words aren’t allowed (in the last 5 minutes playing the game, the following words have been disallowed: Runes, tubed, evils, filed, froth). There are plenty of sites which will tell you which words you can make with different sets of letters so why not check these out and update your game?.Version: 1.2
✓ RubbishI get ad’s and I’ve paid not to have them. It gets stuck in an advert loop where you either play some dumb game or you can move on. My advice at present is don’t buy this app if you want to actually play Wordle when you want to play!.Version: 1.25.3
✓ SCAMMERSI PAID for the free version only to find out that it is in NO way free. My coins would disappear on me and it was never explained that you could use the same letter twice. Then the game starts using words that are like all vowels and repeating letters. If you need to pay to continue then you are not allowed to see what words you already guessed or what letters have been guessed. Don’t get me wrong, it started out easy. Too easy. Now that they can use the same letter more than once it’s so lame I’m expecting to see words like “weeee” or “sssss” because this game is basically created by a snake. Oh, and you get punished and are moved down a level of you actually have a LIFE outside of this game. I picked my daily prize and my prize was being told that I got put back down a level for not playing. ANNNND I was in a tournament and was in second place being only 30 points behind first place. I played until I beat the first place score, only to find that then someone else was now in first place and was beating me by over 300 points! So for 30 minutes I was in 2nd place, inching towards first place, then out of nowhere comes a score that high? You only get 4 points per game if you’re good so how is this possible? SCAMMERS.Version: 1.34.0
✓ Shocking AdI’ll start by saying I’ve really enjoyed playing this game until today. I usually tend to ignore the Ads, however today my son decided he wanted to help with a word I was stuck on. Anyway, an Ad came up and my son who’s 19 quickly handed back the iPad to me. To my shock horror it was showing a blurred version of two men performing a lewd act. This is not what I expected on a word game that’s approved for a 12yr old child, I’m horrified. I would otherwise have given this game 5* but due to the Ad I can only give 1*. I have now deleted the App. I believe Apple approves the Ads but how did something like this slip through the net?.Version: 1.24.3
✓ Deleted after one hour, one gameI don’t mind the odd bit of advertising to help support an app that has found a balance between entertainment value and the right amount of advertising necessary to support a “free” app. This app failed to find that balance. Every time you choose any option from the main menu, you have to sit through 30-60 seconds of advertising. Every time. Did I mention it is every time? Deleted..Version: 1.12.2
✓ Too many ads!Way too many ads. Spend more time closing them then playing the actual game. Also very challenging as there is no hints to help you guess words..Version: 1.10.1
✓ Too many ads.. DO NOT DOWNLOADWay too many ads and way too long. Ads interrupt game play and you have to watch an ad every time you leave the screen. Way to ruin a great game.. 5 thumbs down!!.Version: 1.46.7
✓ Restore purchase doesn't workOn my new iPhone I'm seeing all the ads again and restore purchase reports success but changes nothing. Annoying for an app I paid 9.99 to remove ads. Won't pay again..Version: 1.17.2
✓ Many more ads than most gamesOverall I enjoy the puzzles but the number of ads in this game is at least double most other games I play. Even hitting the back arrow to switch games will start an ad and then when you select another game another ad will immediately start. A new ad pops up randomly throughout game play. You could be trying to enter a guess and BAM another ad. Most word games play the ads between rounds so it doesn’t throw you off. Also, all of the ads are quite long and have an addition 10-15 wait time after the ad for the x to pop up allowing you to close it. Yes, I understand there’s no such thing as free but this is over top. One other thing to note is I’ve been playing this game only a couple of days and already words have started to repeat..Version: 1.9.1
✓ Freakish amount of adsThe game itself is fun, and I enjoy playing it. However, the amount of ads is so ridiculous I had to come write a review to warn people not to download. Now I understand the need to have ads to make revenue if you have people playing the game for free. There are ads before and after every game with optional rewards ads (and bottom of the screen ads). What really frustrates me is that anytime you swipe out of the game you get an ad. If you respond to a text message, swipe to change the brightness of your screen/to check the time, or even accidentally swipe to see all the apps you have open at once, the game will force another ad down your throat that you will be unable to skip. It’s driving me crazy, and this game is just unplayable even for the most patient of people..Version: 1.28.0
✓ Too many addsThere are adds after every game..Version: 1.46.8
✓ Ad SimulatorI’ve had the app for literally 3-4 minutes and I’ve already gotten 5 ads. Great job you greedy cretin, I love the price of $13+tax for a ad removal feature. If you think that’s worth it, your competitors have better options, no I don’t mean well known ones, any genuine indie word puzzle creators out there can make something x10 better than this.Version: 1.46.7
✓ Sound is LOUDI can’t play this game around people because I can’t turn the LOUD sound off. I have the volume turned off on my phone and can’t turn the sound off on this app in my settings. Please create an option for sound to be turned off? Thanks!.Version: 1.2
✓ Ridiculous amount of advertisementsI wasn’t even sure what you were supposed to do or what the colours of the letters meant. I love Wordscapes and lots of other word games. I had to stop using it because every five letters I put in and then submitted, I’d have to watch a one-minute ad. Crazy. I’m deleting it..Version: 1.9.1
✓ Michele LSLove the game but too many ads especially Royal Match. This IT world is so smart you get ads on things you’ve looked at and even talked about but it can’t pickup you’ve already got the game. Frustrating when it’s about 80% of the ads on this game. Also not happy you now have to pay coins to play the daily challenges on days you missed.Version: 1.35.6
✓ Too many adsPain to play.. ads every 2 seconds. Takes away the enjoyment.Version: 1.14.3
✓ AwfulThe constant ads pop ups interruption s make the app almost unusable and leave the user feeling aggravated and disgusted. Totally understand the authors / co behind the app want to secure revenue streams but when they get to the point that the user abandons the ridiculous effort it takes to play the game, something has gone off the rails. Just received a totally arrogant tone deaf reply to my initial review, which I am not changing. The reply suggests I purchase the remove ads feature. This is something I would do if the developers hadnt made the ads so obtrusive annoying and aggravating to the point I lose any motivation at all to reward them or use the app, on too of the fact they have obviously been given so much similar feedback in other reviews. Total disgust at their behavior. The app should be removed from the store In fact if I could lower it to zero stars I would.Version: 1.28.0
✓ Ridiculous amount of adsI love the game, and downloaded this as a means to play it on my downtime at work. Never have I been so frustrated so quickly by a game- it feels like every time you guess a word (regardless if you get it right or wrong) it flings up an ad that you can’t skip. I am so bored of the constant ads for Candy Crush and PayPal- which although yes I remember the ads 1) I already have both of those, 2) l only remember them because they irritate me now based on seeing the ads every 10 seconds on this app. Honestly I would not recommend this app to anyone as it just tries your patience… and I’m a therapist so if it’s trying my patience that should say it all really..Version: 1.6.0
✓ Ads Waaaaaaay Too FrequentSo annoying. Literally every 2 or 3 moves it cuts to long ads..Version: 1.24.0
✓ Extreme greed with how many ads are displayedThis is essentially an advert-first app. Occasionally it lets you play a game of Wordle..Version: 1.29.5
✓ Scam ads in the gameThere are literal scams in the game, you click a flashing message and it tells you that you win an Amazon gift card. How is this allowed.Version: 1.36.0
✓ Bad layout and too many adsThere’s a button in classic mode that solves your current puzzle for 200 coins, and apparently they decided the best place for it was directly below the backspace button, so it’s very easy to hit accidentally. Suddenly instead of clearing some letters you’ve just spent 200 of you hard won game currency to skip this puzzle and how the heck did they decide that was a smart place to put that? (Jk obviously they put it there so we’d unintentionally spend too much gold and would then want to replace it by purchasing some more). Ads are expected with a free game, so I thought I knew what I was signing up for. But it’s not just ads between games, it’s also ads every few guesses, ads if you have the app minimized for too long, ads to get extra coins, and oh look more ads. Many of them have fake exit buttons so instead of getting back to your game you’ve actually selected the ad and it’s opening some sketchy website in your browser..Version: 1.15.0
✓ Smiley56I love this game, (would have given 5 stars) but the reason 2 stars were given is because when you win coin and select an ad to watch to get double, the screen goes black, no ad comes on, and nothing happens, so no coins are given at all and they’re lost. Surely you can fix this so the player can rightfully get double the amount of coins or prizes won after choosing to watch an ad. It’s very annoying so please fix it..Version: 1.35.3
✓ Different than the originalDifferent words than the original. Very disappointed. Very disappointed. Too many ads while playing. I will delete this app Too many ads while playing I will delete this app.Version: 1.14.4
✓ Keeps crashing with the fat pill adThis is so annoying. I had just deleted Match Master 3D because it kept crashing when the fat pill ad came on. You get a black screen that you can’t get out of and if you click on it it takes you to Safari and info on the fat pill. Having got sick of rebooting my iPad I then thought I would try another game so downloaded Wordle. Well, guess what same annoying fat pill ad telling me it is the last day to get them (every day!) and after a couple of days the same thing is happening. Fat ad = crashed game. If it keeps happening I shall be deleting this game too. Life is too short to be messing around with this all the time. Come on developers - get rid of the ads that are crashing the game!.Version: 1.14.4
✓ UNSOLVABLE GAMEI played 5 games on this App. Apart from the ridiculously long and plentiful ads, I found on the 5th game that there was no solvable word! I had 4 of 5 correct in position and tried every other possible letter for the 5th and every possibility I tried, it stated that it wasn’t a word (I agreed). Unsolvable games is ridiculous in such an app. So I can only think that it’s aim is to get you to buy coins to help and get sucked into the adverts. Shame … would have been good otherwise. Would not recommend it at all..Version: 1.8.0
✓ Ads, ads and nothing more - not suitable to children due to betting/ Gambling app diversionI open the app and it immediately diverts me to a betting app in the App Store. I choose a game and an add pops up that takes a minute to clear, when clicking x to close it takes me to the App Store from that add, I close and go back to the game. I finally begin to play and in the middle of a game I am randomly diverted to yet another betting/gambling app again without consent. I go back and continue to play and because of the disruption get the answer wrong and am forced to watch another advert. I understand advertising is how they get revenue but this is ridiculous. When I first downloaded the app it was allot more playable and you could enjoy it but not anymore. WARNING: not suitable for under 18’s due to the weird diversions to betting/ gambling apps..Version: 1.8.0
✓ Crashes constantlyThis game chews up my power and crashes in every second of third row. Fortunately it remembers my last attempt when I reload. Great game which I find interesting but not overly hard (I am an English teacher) but too many bugs for my old iphone. Reading other reviews I gather my crashes are when ads try to play as I don’t get many ads, and I have volume turned off so no sound which suits me. Only tricky things are when a letter appears twice in a word, the only way you know is if your guess had it twice. Most puzzled easily solved in 3-5 guesses, but as I said, I am an English teacher and am good at knowing common letter blends. Good spellers will find it easier, but still enough of a challenge. I aim to get the answers in 3-4 guesses..Version: 1.14.4
✓ Too many aggressive ads- too many really aggressive ads - also annoying that it includes plural words - would use more often but too many ads.Version: 1.46.6
✓ DO NOT PAY TO REMOVE ADS - IT IS A FRAUDIf you pay to remove ads nothing changes - you still have to watch the ads and try to work out how to get through them to continue playing. I am unable to understand how such a blatantly dishonest theft of people’s money is tolerated on the Apple App Store. We are persuaded to allow Apple to limit our choices and restrict our behaviour within the ‘walled garden’ of the Apple ecosystem at least partly on the basis that we expect to be protected against scams like this. Sadly it seems this is yet another illusory promise that further weakens customers’ trust and confidence in the businesses they deal with..Version: 1.6.0
✓ Ads are unbearableThis could be a great game but the repeating ads are becoming unbearable. Nobody will play this if it keeps getting more and more…..I can’t play for more than one word as it just takes too much time waiting for ads to finish..Version: 1.46.8
✓ Repetitive and costlyI’ve been playing over two years now and I’ve dispersed well over $100 (lost count long ago but probably around $200) to avoid ads and keep playing this addictive game. There are constant contests for which there is no way to decline participation and if one doesn’t play, you drop quickly back to novice level. That might not matter if you’re not competitive, but if you enjoy playing against others, you end up with less experienced players and that is not fair. Another irritating aspect of this app is their persistent use of words that can be difficult to discern (__a_e = flame, flake, blame etc. Or _i_er = biker, hiker, liner, nicer, ricer, etc. Or _o_er = cover, hover, lover, mover, rover, etc. And I do mean PERSISTENT!! Annoying because it basically FORCES you to buy « boosters » if you want to keep playing. If you don’t buy boosters to reveal a letter, the game is over for you. Period. I recently changed my player name to: Ready2Quit Update! Be careful putting card info into this app. I started getting charged for things I didn’t order. Best NOT to buy anything on this site! I now have quit playing this game..Version: 1.48.0
✓ AdsAds.Version: 1.46.7
✓ Was fun…but keeps crashingThe game was fun and then the crashes started. I can play in tournaments and sometimes it will go fine. A month ago I was in a tournament and it quit responding all together and of course I then lost and was demoted. I contacted support and, after several days, they told me to shut off my phone. This worked but the no adds I purchased quit and I was again inundated with ads. Way too many ads, all the time. I told support and they said I would need to provide a receipt or pay again. Today I was in fourth place, several hours to go. I was making correct guesses but not gaining points. I shut off my phone several times but still won’t move up in points. I am now losing my position because others are able to play and gain points. I am tired of bugs like this and support that won’t fix or help. It is fun if/when it works..Version: 1.25.1
✓ I’m honestly impressed by how greedy the dev isThis game came out 5 years ago is coincidentally named the same as the popular web game, but that’s were the similarities ended. The goal of this game was to quickly guess 4-6 letter words before the clock ran out. Pretty fun simple concept and a little stressful. I found myself playing it nonstop. Then the developer realized he had a chance to make a fortune based on people looking for the Wordle game that has gone viral. Under the guise of a “Bug fixes.” update, the app was changed overnight to an ad infested game. It was now a chore to play the game. Of course the developer added his own version of Wordle called “6 guesses” and now what made this game unique is lost. If you came here looking for gameplay similar to the online Wordle web app, you’ll find it, but be prepared to see an ad every 1-2 guesses. The only joy that this game provides is to the developer as I’m sure he’s making a killing. Congrats on winning the name lottery. For everyone else, stay away unless you love ads..Version: 1.7.0
✓ Too many ads, Ad-free version is a rip-offWay too many ads. Paid for the ad-free version and there’s still some ads. They also try to get you to pay money for ‘coins’ in order to play the daily puzzles. Better off using other wordle apps..Version: 1.24.3
✓ Expect to be intruded with adsThe game is fairly fun to play; a bit frustrating tho as has a few bugs. However, the intrusion of ads during the game is ridiculous, for example during the timed mode ‘word fever’ it is frustrating when you already have a short amount of time to input the word and then a video ad pops up, you then have to wait for the skip button, then the App Store pop-up appears, you close that, then you wait for the x to be clickable on the poster ad, then you can get back to the game and take a few seconds to readjust to the scene when you have a timer. Very frustrating so accordingly shall remove this game..Version: 1.9.1
✓ Too many adsEven though I paid for the app there are still a ton of apps..Version: 1.12.2
✓ Fun game behind all the adsAd explosion game number 463.Version: 1.35.6
✓ So frustratingHi I like this game and play everyday with my Mum… but the ads were really annoying to both of us so as I like the game decided to pay to remove the ads but unfortunately this is not the case & is very misleading on the part of Wordle it does remove the ads at the bottom of the screen but those are by far the least annoying as you still get extremely long cut away ads at the beginning of a game… Ok I completely understand having to watch an ad in order to claim & extra gift but for me paying to remove ads should actually remove them… I feel I’ve been misled & ripped off. This game should have 5 stars & if you like wasting your life watching mindless pointless ads than you’ll probably give it 5 stars for me I’m afraid I give it 1 star ⭐️.Version: 1.12.1
✓ Not impressed!I paid 3.99 for add free and still getting adds! Rip off!.Version: 1.12.2
✓ Fun game; insane ads; insults usersThe game is fun and when it comes to just playing the game this is the best of 7 Wordle apps I tried. 2 daily games (5-letter and 6-letter) plus classic endless mode and some other varieties. Hard mode is fun and I like that you are told if your guess is a word before tapping “submit” which saves some time (because they often use some very obscure words that no human has ever used in their life). And now you can see the detailed results after the game is over - yay! That’s where the good ends. First, they think you are stupid. They charge $6/mo to play the 2 daily games (~60 games/mo) without ads! Then they try to convince you to pay $4 to play just the last 3 days of the month ad free. Do people actually fall for this scam? Insulting. To play the classic game ad free they charge $6 once (no ads forever) - that is reasonable. Second, the ads are insane. I expect ads for a free game, but they play ads way too often. Now they play ads even in the middle of a game! “Insane” is the only word to describe the ads. I could write 1000 words on the ad problems. Just trust me and be ready to throw your phone against a wall after you are bombarded with ads. I’m ready to move on to another app since the ads are only getting worse each month. Third, about 5% of the words they use are words no one has ever used before. “Umbra” - really? They show up in some dictionary but I doubt they’ve ever been used elsewhere..Version: 1.44.0
✓ Reduced functionality if you don’t share data!I don’t want my data tracked as is all our rights. However, if I don’t allow you track me you put a banner over the top of the game screen telling me that this isn’t helpful for you and needs fixing and to click the banner to fix it. Annoying but OK if that was all but the banner obscures two options in two parts of the GUI - a cynical person might think you were doing this on purpose to annoy players into allowing tracking of data. Behave yourself Wordle and stop the banner blocking the GUI thereby reducing functionality for players who don’t wish to have their device tracked..Version: 1.11.2
✓ Scammer- do not pay for no ads- cause you still gets adsI paid a price for No ads- and I still have to deal with ads- I want my money back. You lied, took my money and I still have to sit and watch the same crap ads all the time. Worst game ever.Version: 1.33.0
✓ Mixed feelings about updateNew update is slicker, with better vocabulary. But even after buying the ad-free version I am interrupted with an offer to watch ads if I want to repeat a go (why would I want to do that?) with a delayed ‘no thanks’ option. It slows down the pace of the game and is unwelcome. Other buttons that load up ads are placed right next other function buttons so you can’t help loading up ads by mistake. It’s sneaky and dishonest to do that. Especially when customers have already paid for the ad-free version. I’m one of the customers who download the app initially expecting the online Wordle game, but I also like this game and I respect the approach the developers have taken in giving some of the unexpected revenue to charity. However - a paid-for ad-free version should be ad-free. Please lose the sneaky ad buttons within the game or at least move them out of the way. Update: Latest update has made things worse not better. Even more ways to trick a player into watching an ad (even though paid for ad-free). Disrupts the game. Not enjoyable. Will now delete it the app. It’s a shame though..Version: 1.7.0
✓ DISAPPOINTED!I am very disappointed in this game. I enjoy playing and it is challenging. However, I would look up at my coins and large amounts would have been removed. I hadn’t used them in any way. They would just suddenly disappear, leaving me with very little. I kept on playing thinking I wasn’t using them anyway. But, it stopped allowing me to click on “try again” and “Calendar Plus”. Instead it would take me to the page where you purchase coins. I purchased once so I could continue playing. But, I am not going to continue purchasing so them can remove them when they want. My sister and I play it together, and she hasn’t had any problems. I even deleted the game and reinstalled. It changed nothing. Took me right back where I left off. I don’t recommend this game and plan to look for another one..Version: 1.24.3
✓ Paid to remove ads and still ads!!! 😡PUT IN A SCAM REPORT AND ASK FOR A REFUND!! You can do this via the App Store!! This app has a Huge number of intrusive ads, so I paid to be ad free and I still get ads that are really hard to exit from. Really annoying!!! I suspect from looking at the many of the 5 star reviews that they are all a “paid for review/stars” campaign, as many look like they are by ESL, and are very brief. Be interesting to see if they all came from the same county?.Version: 1.14.0
✓ Way too many long adsI downloaded this today, had a few goes but then deleted it, the amount of ads is ridiculous and there doesn’t seem to be a way to get rid of them when they eventually finish, they seem to go on to a further ad and keep taking you to the App Store . Pity, it would probably be a good game otherwise. I have fallen into the trap with another game of paying for no ads then continuing to get the so not doing that..Version: 1.5.1
✓ Not the popular gameFYI This is not the popular game everyone is talking about. And not a great game either..Version: 1.2
✓ Racist word includedKeen to report this app on the basis of racist word being present, but can’t seem to be able to. Issue could be easily rectified (I’m assuming non-native English speaking developers might not realise the insensitivity in including such charged words, so I just wanted to flag it up and make them aware really, giving them an opportunity to remove the word). That problem aside, the game is way too tricky. It seems impossible to move on to level 2 without either being superhuman or to “share” to Facebook etc for extra points. Swiftly gave up and will remove the app..Version: 1.2
✓ Free version is a mareI fully Understand that free version means you watch the odd ads etc however, this is ridiculous it’s every 30 seconds or so. Hopefully the paid one is better but I like to road test the free apps before paying to see if like it and based off my user experience I would not pay for this or recommend it. Goodluck to other users..Version: 1.9.0
✓ Great game, too many adsI’ve never written a review on and app before, but I have also never come across a game that has so many ads! Yes, I know you can pay to remove them, the app is free and they need to make a profit, but sometimes it’s like you submit one word and ad, submit another word and then ad! Awesome game, but more ads than game unfortunately..Version: 1.9.1
✓ Paid the $4.49 so I could play ad free but still ads?!The game is great, downloaded after hearing all the hype. After about 1 hour of play I got over having to watch the ads- that seem to go for a lot longer then 30sec. I went into the purchase page and clicked on the no ads and paid the money, however I’m still watching ads?!? What’s the point of paying for it, for no ads so that you can actually play without interruption if there is still going to be ads:( money wasted to be honest. Otherwise great game if you don’t mind all the ads.Version: 1.5.0
✓ Too many adsYou can barely complete a round before you have to deal with an ad..Version: 1.46.8
✓ Needs accessibility featuresThis is a fun concept, but it’s marred by a few glaring design oversights. the most major issue for me is the font- the stylized bubbly letters are very difficult to tell apart at times (particularly because they’re white letters on a pastel background) and that’s kind of a critical failure in a timed word-making game. it’s also intensely frustrating that you can’t reset your word by any means other than shaking the phone, which wastes a lot of time and is hit or miss in terms of whether or not it even works. you can also reset your word by completing it, but the letters don’t return to their original spots- they get placed in random spots. there is also a noticeable input lag, but that might be a result of my iphone 6S’s performance being crunched by apple as they breathe down my neck about upgrading, so i’d be curious to know if others with newer models encounter this issue. the last issue is the lackluster dictionary. many common words have been rejected and it makes for an incredibly frustrating play experience. overall, this game has a lot of potential, but in its current form, it’s not very fun..Version: 1.2
✓ Dodgey ADSYou guys need to check your ads better. I was playing Wordle and accidentally clicked on the bad banner at the bottom, it took me to this site and then went out of the site and took me to ‘settings’ where it said ‘your iPhone has been hacked, change all your passwords on Facebook, iCloud, gmail, ect. before 1.47 is over’ (or something like that) but it wasn’t actually the real settings it was just a website that they had made to look like settings. Can’t remember what the ad was or what the website looked like (I was a little busy panicking) Anyway, pretty good game over all..Version: 1.26.0
✓ User Beware. This game comes with a hidden cost!The game play is OK, however it comes at a price that I’m not willing to pay. When I checked my device’s App Privacy Report after playing just one game I was very surprised to find the amount of Internet activity related to that one game. There were around 160 different web domains contacted by the App during that one game. While a few domains appear to relate to APIs for actual game play, the vast majority appear to be to third party sites that are designed to track your activity and build up a profile of you, your device and your usage. There were also some APIs used for serving up advertisements to you during game play. I will be uninstalling this app shortly and try one of the many apps that offer similar gameplay!.Version: 1.29.4
✓ This is not the Wordle that everyone is talking aboutFake and fraudulent misrepresentation here Apple should remove this garbage.Version: 1.4.1
✓ Updated to show ads every turnNow shows ads after every move… uncool.Version: 1.14.0
✓ Bad bad badWay too many adds, annoying letters and just fully 😡😡😡.Version: 1.46.8
✓ So soI paid for no ads, yet there are still ads, timed ads (30 seconds) that you have to let run to finish. There is a pig that can fill with 1500 coins if you pay $2.99, it should be an option on the main screen, not come up after every puzzle. There’s a wheel you can pay 150 coins to spin, but out of 9 slots there’s only 1 prize (250 coins) that’s worth more than what you spend, there’s no incentive🤷♀️ Before if you spent 150 coins to continue a puzzle, you’d earn points based on remaining guesses, now you get one point regardless of how many guesses remain, again, no incentive, you’re actually punished for spending coins in that aspect. It’s a game you can play for a few minutes, but because there’s no reward per se, it’s not a game that motivates you. Unless there’s something I’m not finding in game, you can only guess 5 letter words, minus the second play on daily puzzle, which is a 6 letter word. In short, it’s ok, but it’s very repetitive for no way to advance..Version: 1.36.0
✓ So many ads and alarming amount of background activityVery little of your time can be spent trying to play the actual game, with all the ads that pop up. And they’re timed ads, so there’s no way to click through them, even if you aren’t at all interested in what they’re selling or EVEN IF YOU ALREADY HAVE WHAT THEY'RE SELLING. I would urge even the most patient and tolerant person not to download this ap, since, even if you don’t mind walking away for a bit while these constant ads play, it seems like there’s a lot of background activity taking place, even while playing the game, causing delays when you’re trying to type your guesses, with huge lags between letters, sometimes even seeming to freeze entirely. I’m not a developer, but I do wonder what is occupying so much of the app’s attention, after signing off on their user agreement and giving permission to god knows what information is being accessed. It’s so bad that it comes to a complete halt at times and crashes entirely. So bad, that I recommend deleting any app that appears to be associated with it, like the ones it advertises, one of which I had considered buying, but now most certainly will not. It the sign of a developer who lacks anything of value to offer, so survives on the sole project of extracting value from others by whatever means is necessary and however possible. tl/dr: this app is way too expensive — especially the free version. Don’t do it..Version: 1.11.0
✓ Do not pay to remove addsYou’d think that paying money to remove adds would benefit your game experience, right? Wrong. Instead of having to watch an add and being able to play past days Wordle, now you have to pay 150 coins to play past days! Don’t have enough coins? Guess what you can buy them! So now after I paid to remove adds, I can’t play past days without spending more money, when I was able to do that before (by watching an add). And don’t worry, removing adds does not remove all adds, you still have to watch them to get double coins. Which now I need to do because I have to pay 150 coins per Wordle (past ones). This is a joke, so disappointed!.Version: 1.26.0
✓ Not using original EnglishAs someone who didn’t grow up learning the American version of English, it really kills the game for me. Developers, could you take this into consideration when designing these things that many countries don’t use Americanised English, it would make it more inclusive suitable for the different spellings. Also, I see what many others have said, soo many ads. Watched more ads than I did playing the game. Don’t see how either games win, I hate the game I’m trialing because of the ads, and I also hate the ad being advertised because it’s getting in the way. Don’t bother with this game, it’s a waste of time!!!!!!.Version: 1.10.1
✓ Too heavy on adsThis game lasted a lot longer than many of the games I've downloaded with as many ads. It's fun, if you like word games, but lately I've been getting hit with 3 unskippable ads just to play the 2 daily puzzles, and it's too much. Uninstalling. Edit: Purchasing the pro version does not eliminate the “optional” ads for the daily puzzles, as far as I know. I don’t mind ads, but 3 long ads for 2 little puzzles was more than I could bear. Take note you would have made more revenue off me with fewer ads. Removing a star for poor developer response in not recognizing these particular ads can’t be removed and that the issue was not that there are ads but that there are too many of them. I can’t see the cost right now because I uninstalled it, but I’m also pretty sure the “pro” version was more expensive than I was willing to pay, especially since it sounded like it didn’t include the daily puzzles..Version: 1.25.2
✓ Too many ads do not bother downloadingWas such a good game until the update now every time I get a word I get an ad straight after every time I touch a button I get one or two ads complete waste of time and I’m deleting the game because of this.Version: 1.8.0
✓ Could Have Been FunI decided to try Wordle to improve my “letter” thinking; I’m a terrible speller and scrabble player, so this seemed good for me. Unfortunately, the game uses a 15 second timer to control your gameplay. Not only are you supposed to use all three guesses within this time limit, ignoring how it rearranges the letters halfway through, the timer is a bright red/pink line that draws a close circle around the letters in the middle of the screen; you will notice it. In fact the timer doesn’t even seem to restart between words, with the clock simply jumping back a few seconds and continuing on. So, this game is, how many words can you accurately guess from a changing letter shuffle in 15 seconds? Also, not Wordle. Some people may enjoy this set up, but I do not and it is not the game advertised. Another problem to be aware of, no post-game ads that I have encountered have an “x” option; they are full screen and continuously refers you the app ads store purchase option. The only way to leave it is to reboot the app..Version: 1.6.0
✓ Way too many adsLoved wordle, app has way too many ads and I’m not paying for ad-free. Alas, removed the app..Version: 1.35.6
✓ Too many adsIt’s not a bad game to play. I actually like the concept of it, but there is way too many ads. In 6 guess mode ads play every one to two word guesses and in classic mode where it’s time based you have ads popping up in the middle of word inputs. This would have to be fixed for me to play long term because as it is I’m not keen on continuing to play..Version: 1.8.0
✓ Constantly not workingI don’t know if it’s just my device, but it seems consistent with other reviews about how this app keep crashing. The classic mode works quite well, but it seems the with friends part (and any other part that needs internet) struggles to keep (or get) a connection. The amount of times I’ve had to restart the game (multiple times to get it going even once) is making me seriously think about deleting it ( and I don’t want to as I’m enjoying vs’ing my sil) - not to mention the amount of ads is mind blowing! PLEASE FIX!!.Version: 1.28.0
✓ Repeat WordsApprox 9,000 5-letter words in the English language and I keep getting repeat words. Update: downgraded from 2 stars to 1 star. Even though I paid the absolutely ridiculous $8.49 (more fool me) to remove the ads, I still have to watch ads if I want to claim any coins. As an example, the game tells me I have earned 9 coins but if I want to watch an ad I will get double the coins (18). However, there is no way that I can see where I can just claim the 9 coins if I don’t want to watch an ad. That is deceptive!.Version: 1.24.3
✓ Ok but lots of flawsCould be really fun but why does the sound have to be deafening? I have to physically switch the volume button on my phone off! Even just reducing the volume to the lowest possible level is way too loud! Shake to mix letters is finicky. Annoying things like that..Version: 1.2
✓ Beware of ad-maniaSo I understand that free apps need some form of revenue. But an advert after every turn is just annoying. Makes the game eat at the battery power of the phone, and patience. Such a shame as it has put me off the game entirely so not keen on buying the full edition. Note for the future… free games need to hook people, not send them running after 10 min!!!!.Version: 1.8.0
✓ Ads and buggyOnly downloaded recently and I do like this game, helps to pass a bit of time, but the number of ads can be a little annoying. I get that you need ads to keep the game free, but at least let you play a game before showing an ad! For one game I’ve watched at least three ads, you can’t even go start to finish without an ad (unless you guess the word in the first two tries). An ad at the end of each game would suffice to generate plenty of income, why be greedy? The app also has a bug. If you don’t finish the game you started for whatever reason, and go back in a few hours later to finish, the highlighted letters you already guessed go back to normal, so you then have to work out from your grid which letters are remaining to choose from. I’ll keep the game, but it won’t be a regular one to play, it’s a shame how much developer greed can ruin gameplay for users..Version: 1.35.6
✓ WATCH ADS FOR NO REWARDSI love the game. Paid at the very start so I wouldn’t have to watch the ads. Still have to watch ads!! What is the MOST annoying is when you earn coins, and if you chose to watch the ad you get double the coins!! Which you don’t!! I have been watching ads but only get the original amount of coins. This happens every time, so now don’t bother claiming the coins. Also used to be able to watch ads to claim 25 coins, this no longer an option! You have to buy any coins!! Great game but don’t charge people to get a game free of ads, which isn’t the case. Taking the p1ss a bit!!.Version: 1.23.0
✓ Frustrating!... not the words but the adds which try to trick you to buy or try a game or block you from responding for 3 secs repeatedly! Then the adds are slow to load. Wastes a lot of time off Wordle. Wordle when you are in it plays very well and holds your interest. Round over, try again button not responding..Version: 1.31.0
✓ Ad SpamGame was fun until the update.. now you spend more time closing ads than playing. I get trying to get people to buy the full version and earning revenue but it’s completely ruined the app.Version: 1.9.0
✓ Good game, problematic app.I’m running the game on iPhone 12. The game drains the battery very quickly, and causes the phone to run hot. Also the ad version will run another ad if you navigate away from the app and come back to it shortly, which I find both excessive and a nuisance. Other than that I like the structure of the tournaments and the interface is well done..Version: 1.35.6
✓ A game for people who love watching adsWish I could give zero stars. The one star is because there is actually a possibility to play this game, but this is limited at best. The ads are simply horrendous. Adds to open the app, adds every 20 seconds of play, adds upon adds, more adds, etc. The game is concentration based- by the time you have seen three words, an add pops up and goes for 30 seconds, then you’re back in the game and the timer’s running out by the time you get back into it. No problem at all until the update. If you love it that much, fine -pay for the ad-free version. This update is blatant coercion to pay and the game is devoid of substance. Delete it off your device and go back to living your life, as I have done after writing this review..Version: 1.9.1
✓ Ads ads & more ads!I started playing this game in late 2022. (The free version.) Worked my way up & by early 2023 I was ranking in the top 20 nationwide. The ads were reasonable, understandably placed & I had no problem with them at all. At some point the game froze in the middle of a guess & would not let me proceed. When I closed the app & reopened it, I was back down to zero. Months of work gone. So I deleted the app. Well, I recently downloaded again & MY GAWD the ads are RIDICULOUS! Ads before the game, ads after EVERY guess, ads ads ads! I have NEVER played a game with so much solicitation! Needless to say I’ll be deleting again. The point of gaming is to unwind & enjoy a little escape. Watching never-ending commercials is not my idea of unwinding nor escape. Oh, btw, when people have to sit through these repetitive ads for various games, those games are the last games we want to download & play..Version: 1..41.0
✓ Somewhere to playIt would suit me better to be able to place the letters in any order so I could put in the ones I know are right and work on the remainder without having to see the word complete in my head first and lay out a whole word in order. In other words if I know the last two letters let me put them in place and work on the remaining letters..Version: 1.27.0
✓ Ridiculous Amounts of Ads!I love the game, but the amount of ads the you have to watch makes the entire game unbearable. I don’t mind watching some ads in order to help pay for the cost of the game, however.. the amount of ads this latest update has ruins everything. I am forced to delete to app now. I’ll try back again in 6 months and see if the app developers have listened to their customers..Version: 1.6.0
✓ Waste of Battery PowerConstant ads. Says at start “We may play an ad while loading game”. Then you wait for the ad to load as well as the game. Spun the wheel won Ad Free for 10 min. More like Ad Free for 2 minutes. When do I get the prize I won? That is straight out thieving. Then it says that some words are not a word. When they are commonly known words. Not worth wasting your time. Developers obviously have no morals. Just thieve off their customers..Version: 1.35.0
✓ Like the game but…The games ok apart from few things like a table of the final tournament rather than just what league you ended up in, Americanisms ie misspelt words like humor etc., obvious words that’s aren’t in there. Getting in touch is a waste of time as customer service is pretty appalling. I tried to sync my iPad up and lost all my points, progress against other people etc and had to start again. I raised this with developers who never replied. The other night I was ahead in a tournament by about 70 points with 2 hours left but went to bed. I woke to find another short tournament had started with not points added for the previous tournament nor any result of if I won or not. I raised this only to be ignored again. I add to the comments re ad free. The ads were a pain so I paid for the ad free only to see ads still in there if you try to claim double points. Should be prosecuted for false advertising..Version: 1.38.2
✓ So many adsThe ads are unbearable and everything costs money. It feels like you get an ad every 15 seconds, every time you guess a word, before and after every level, and you’re constantly bombarded by starter packs that you pay for with real money. I even get ads when I open the game and while things are loading. I got 2 ads that were separated by literally 2 seconds. Both were unskippable and over a minute long. It feels like every button you click makes you watch an ad. This is a total cash grab game. I had this game for less than 10 minutes and even then it felt like I spent more time watching ads than playing the game. There’s even a “free offer” section and you have to pay money for to get these “free” items. All the ads make you want to pay to get no ads but it’s $10. I’ll never get this app again. It’s so irritating with all the ads.Version: 1.47.2
✓ AdsHi The game is great however just recently while playing it throws you out to safari and brings up all types of ads some saying your phone has been hacked and telling you to get a vpn also other ads including porn this is not acceptable as I get my grandchildren to help some times This not only happens once but continuously after you flip back to the game Can you sort this please otherwise I will have to delete it also this does not happen with any other app.Version: 1.26.1
✓ Don't listen to UsersIt's a shame the game isn't better, but they just don't listen to customers. Including some simple fixes might even encourage me to pay to lose the ads, but i wont while the app can't listen to basic improvements. For example, once you get the word, you're unable to see the steps you used to share with friends, also, ads immediately pop up and take forever right after you complete the daily wordle, which is unnecessarily annoying; The menu system needs update & ads should stop being on permanent repeat! etc, etc..Version: 1.19.0
✓ Annoyed! Wasted money.Paid for ad free but still gets ads. Very annoying!!.Version: 1.10.0
✓ NOT THE WORDLE YOU’RE THINKING OFThis game is not the wordle that you see people play and hear them talk about. This app could be fun if you didn’t get an ad EVERY SINGLE TIME you do ANYTHING. I tried to play this for a little while and the fact that for every 15 seconds of gameplay, you get a 15-30 second ad for a terrible game nobody wants, makes me sick. The only reason people are downloading this is because they don’t know that the real wordle is a WEBSITE and not a MOBILE APP. At this point there are dozens and dozens of Wordle clones online that are 100x better than this freemium garbage. If you want to play normal wordle, but more than once a day, please go look up “Wordguessr” online (it’s fun with no ads.) There are other versions that are much more enjoyable such as tridle, absurdle, squirdle, and more that I play and love. Whoever put this absolutely disgusting monstrosity of a game on the App Store, needs a good ol’ slap in the face. Get off your high horse and just reduce the number of ads, or change the name to something along the lines of “waste of time”.Version: 1.15.0
✓ ReviewHi, I know that there is an option to pay and opt out of adverts on your game but I cannot afford to do that so I can put up with a few adds like I do on other games, but I have noticed that there are adverts between every single guess I make on a word game, that is way to excessive in my opinion and will stop myself and probably others bothering to play as it is extremely frustrating, if you could reduce the amount of adds to just playing them after each game/Wordle is completed I would continue to play..Version: 1.10.1
✓ Game play is very fun. Frequency and length of ads is maddeningThe good: I absolutely love the challenging game play. If I could suggest a change, it would be to show in classic mode how you compare to other players. Currently, they only show your results compared to the average in the daily/calendar play. The really bad: Players have to watch way, way too many ads. You watch ads after one or two guesses—not just after a puzzle is solved. Also, some of those ads are too long. For example, the Royal Match ads that play are multi-phased. You wait for the ad to time out, only to find that you have to wait through another phase of the ad. Usually , the first phase is quite long. The second phase is shorter, but together, they make for what seems like a never-ending ad. I understand that app developers need to get paid, just like the rest of us. When I get a free app, I expect to watch ads—which serves as payment. Still, the frequency with which ads appear as well as their length make me feel like we don’t have a reasonable exchange of ad time for plays happening. I am going to delete the app. I’m sure I can find something else out there that will challenge my brain without taxing my sanity..Version: 1.44.0
✓ Do Not DownloadThe amount of ads in this game are immediately unbearable within the first round you play. They are also asking for a 13 dollar in game purchase to remove ads. Sad that this is the current state of mobile game. Don’t bother downloading, don’t support this type of game..Version: 1.46.8
✓ Ads and EnglishBesides the fact that there are too many ads, the English in this game is very americanised I live in New Zealand and it can be quite hard trying to guess not only the right word but the right spelling of the word. Would be a great game otherwise.Version: 1.11.2
✓ Bad gameFor a word guessing game, it sure doesn’t know a lot of valid words.Version: 1.2
✓ Deleted everythingDon’t get me wrong, it’s a fun game and I enjoy playing it except for a few things. But, first of all, THE ADS. It is uncalled for to have to watch an ad to do literally anything on the app. Want to start a new game? Ad. Want to take your third guess? Ad. Want to look at the leaderboard? Ad. It’s just absurd. Second of all, my app recently removed all of my progress. Every high score, every power up, all my coins, even every daily challenge I’ve done. Hopefully it’s just a one time thing because I’m pretty unhappy about losing everything I’ve done for the past month and a half. Oh, and I’m not going to go back to do all the daily challenges again because guess what? If you want to do a daily challenge that isn’t the one from that day, AD. I was enjoying this app at first, but the more I’ve played the more I’ve found some major problems with it..Version: 1.16.2
✓ TrialI never complain about ads in free games, BUT I usually play the game for a while with ads to see if it’s worth buying the ad free version. There were SO many ads in the free version that I actually couldn’t play long enough to even see if I liked the game. A 30sec+ ad after every single guess is just insane..Version: 1.9.0
✓ Not Wordle!This is not the Wordle game it pretends to be. Terrible..Version: 1.2
✓ Not as good as people said...The review I read suggested it had been a very popular free app. With in app purchases it didn't look that great, but--no help and above all loud and annoying noises with no apparent way to switch them off. Even with the volume all the way down the noises are still very loud. A neat little app that was free or had honest pricing for a few quid/dollars ("in-app purchases" usually means people have to keep paying. I'm really against that and I'm usually happy to see an upfront price), fixed the stupid sound thing, and tweaked the speed so it wasn't as bad for people with motor control issues, would be worth £5 and a four-star review. By all accounts people really liked this as a freebie, but it's a pity about the problems..Version: 1.2
✓ The ads are making the app laggyExcellent for improving vocabulary but the app keyboard becomes non responsive for long periods and the ads are way too annoying. Way to go New York Times on the takeover and ruining of such a good concept. Glad your shareholders are happy.Version: 1.16.2
✓ Way too many adsI’m all for apps putting ads to earn money but the shear amount on this app is ridiculous. A real shame because the app is nicely designed and fun but it feels like every 4-5 taps on your screen you then have to sit through 2x video ads plus an additional pop up one. It’s very frustrating..Version: 1.9.1
✓ Only in English … where are the 7 other languageNo feature to change the language. This app is only in english. Bashhhhh.Version: 1.18.0
✓ REMOVE THE ADSThe ads completely destroy the experience of this game. It had the potential to be a fun and addictive game, however you spend more time trying to manoeuvre your way out of the ads than actually playing the game. I have thus given up and will deleting the app from my phone with no intention of returning to the game unless it actually becomes playable in the future. Again, to the game creators, this app has great potential… However, if you truely want to see it succeed, you’ll need to remove your current add setup..Version: 1.9.1
✓ Good but THE most annoying ads on free versionFirst off, there seems to be some hate from people who don’t like the concept or can’t get the words. Yeah, it’s irritating sometimes when you can’t work it out but some of us like word puzzles. If you find it “boring” or can’t work then out then this app is not for you, simple as that! I agree with the point about the skip button being located where “submit” usually is, that’s pretty annoying. Now to the ads. The paid version is probably fine but the length and sheer number of ads on the free version, plus the fact they can’t easily be skipped, is getting silly. I put up with it at first but they’ve got more frequent and longer to the point where I just deleted the app as I spend more time waiting for ads to finish than I do playing the actual game. If you don’t want to pay and don’t like being bombarded with ads that are hard to skip then don’t download this!.Version: 1.18.0
✓ Weird version of EnglishMany of the words aren’t real words. Only seems to support the American version of English, so I would avoid this game if you live in England, Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, Australia, New Zealand etc etc etc. Developers please consider adding British English and support the majority of countries, rather than the one that speaks US English..Version: 1.2
✓ I understand ads but it’s wayyy overkillYou get an ad every single time you do anything that isn’t part of the app. EVEN when you just swipe your control panel down on your screen while you’re still in the game to turn the brightness down on your phone! If you leave the app briefly to check a text it will open right to your game for a split second then a false message will pop up after you saw the screen loaded saying “you ‘may’ see an ad while we load” followed by an ad. No, it’s not loading for one, and, for two, you’re going to FOR SURE get an ad every time. And sometimes they’re 17+ seconds with no option to skip while others crash the app and make you restart. On top of getting an ad between rounds and multiple times DURING the round, it’s complete overkill. I know that I can buy the ad free version, but $10 is too high. Also, I bought my son the ad free version because we like to mirror to our TV and play together and he still gets ads (not just the opt in ones like they claim - but random ads between rounds)..Version: 1.46.8
✓ Why the need for too long and so many adsToo many ads, also ads are about 2 minutes long, no thanks, an ad between each game is ridiculous 🤦🏽♀️.Version: 1.11.0
✓ Good game, bad adsThe game is fun but the ads are a major problem. It’s not just the frequency, like playing during a game but if your phone is on silent and you’ve turned all the sound settings off some ads will still play with sound. I was feeding a baby today n the middle of the night playing to keep myself awake when an ad started full volume, waking people up. I though it was a one off but when I played the game during the day it happened again twice..Version: 1.35.2
✓ Ads driving me nutsAds after each round, and then I got into an ad that refused to go away so I’ve deleted the app. I also noticed that when you pay to get rid of the ads you still get some! I know that developers need to get paid for their work, but when I pay for an app I don’t expect to have to keep paying. I generally steer clear of subscription apps and those that are obviously pay-to-win, but this app was recommended by a friend - and it is a good game - but I can’t stand the inane ads constantly invading my screen..Version: 1.29.1
✓ GoldenYou should be able to ‘x’ out a letter if you hit the wrong one instead of having to use them all to start again..Version: 1.2
✓ Love this game but hate everything about the app itselfOverall there are way too many performance issues with this app. Freezing, delayed keyboard input and many other issues which involve me having to force quit the app to get it working again (This doesn’t happen to any other apps on my phone). As others have said, there are way too many ads, it is off putting and distracting - there are ads even in the middle of timed rounds and this completely defeats the purpose of it being timed if you are able to ponder on letters you’ve seen before the ad pops up (the time pauses). I guarantee better ratings if you fix these issues because it’s extremely off putting to players of the game..Version: 1.9.1
✓ Complete Rip offFree version very annoying with constant ad so decided to buy ad-free version. What a mistake as it stop connecting after first day so I don’t get daily Wordle and can’t participate in tournaments. I have raised issue with ‘support team’ twice over past week and no a single response. Also have found the mini games with repeat themselves a lot. Very annoying AI all designed to get you to spend more money on in-app purchases rather than create a nice user experience. This app is all about making money even after you buy the full version, complete con! I will be getting in touch with Apple for a refund. Save your money and spend it elsewhere!.Version: 1.16.1
✓ Ads after 2 games.Will be just to annoying to play with so many ads. UPDATING: I was contacted by Lion Studio Plus to update my review. After playing for free I wrote a review because after 2 games I was hit with an Ad. I paid for “No Ad,” however to claim coins after a winning game I get trapped in an Ad! There’s a timer on some of the Ads but even after it runs out I can’t find a way to X out of the Ad and end up just swiping out of the game to restart later…without my winning coins. Frustrating and annoying. Not sure why I paid a fee for that nonsense. I’ll give the game an added star because you do have the ability to compete with other Wordle players which can be fun if you want to play with friends. However, since you are also playing with coins (which can buy or win) it’s an unfair game. You can can buy difficult words to send or pay for multiple hints to win a game. Spend a few days on it, but I can’t get pass the trap Ads and playing against someone who may have more coins just seems silly. I can play free Quordle and NYT Wordle Ad free. That’s enough for me. Just like challenging myself..Version: 1.26.1
✓ BETTER ENJOY WATCHING ADS. Game is fun but the ads are too numerous to deal withONE AD BETWEEN PUZZLES IS OK BUT THREE ? AND ALL OF THEM DOUBLE ADS? More time spent watching ads than playing game. I really like the word version of the old game mastermind but I am over whelmed by ads. You solve the word and you have to watch an ad before it congratulates you and offers you the prize. Then you click to claim the prize and have to watch another ad. No just to really slap you in the face and waste even more of your time when you select the next puzzle from the calendar you have to watch a THIRD AD before start I g the next puzzle.. I understand watching one but THREE??? Now to make matters even worse the ads are what I call double ads…. You watch the ad click the right top corner at the end and have to sit through a second page with 5e word GET in the middle of it for ani determinable amount of time befor a second X appears. SOMETIMES you just can’t get out and keep being sent to the Apple apps site. The only way to get out is to close WORDLE and reopen the app. SERIOUSLY ONE ADD IS ENOUGH BETWEEN-PUZZLES.Version: 1.26.1
✓ AdsI only played this game for 2 minutes before Ad came on. OK except I could not get rid of it. Only option was to install , no X, swiping down did no work, no time bar at bottom. So installed on iPad, same thing except only got one minute of the game. Swiping screen eventually cleared it. Played game one more minute and new Ad came on, which again did not eventually clear. So have had to endure 3 Ads with no stop /end button, to play for 3 minutes. No way could I get hooked on this game enough to pay for Ad Free. I’ll going back to my other word game..Version: 1.5.1
✓ The Most Infuriating ExperienceIf you want to be interrupted constantly with ads then you’ll enjoy this game. It’s outrageous that Apple have allowed this to be published. Right in the middle of a game and up pops and ad. All because they want to force you to pay for the ad free version. I tried several times thinking perhaps I was overreacting but after getting an ad that I literally couldn’t close unless I downloaded the advertised game for the 3rd time (I would just close the app) I’ve decided enough was enough. I’ve never been one to leave reviews but this experience angered me so much I only felt it right to warn others. Reduce the amount of ads and forced clicks and otherwise the actual game is good. As it stands, I feel myself and probably many others will walk away from this game and never return..Version: 1.9.0
✓ Buggy with IOS 16Sometimes it doesn’t load and you end up with a grey screen. When playing the classic mode tournament, it’ll randomly stop counting up your points and it doesn’t start counting again until the next tournament, so you’re stuck in the position you are and can’t win. I wouldn’t recommend it on IOS 16. It seemed fine on 15 though. Ad placement/continue buttons are strategically placed to make you click by accident so you have to watch an ad or spend your points..Version: 1.25.2
✓ Better before the updateUsed to love this app, but it recently got updated and now I find myself playing it less and less - I don’t like the new look of the words, it now doesn’t register clicks very well especially if you are doing the word fast, no way I can see to go back when you accidentally click a letter wrong. Also seems to have added new words many of which are very obscure or spelt with American spellings (not great for us brits) All in all fun game but much better before the recent update. Will probably stop playing it soon as I just don’t find it fun anymore..Version: 1.4
✓ Ads are ridiculousStop the long ads. Can’t squeeze in a round without watching 2 ads. And these ads are for games that tell you can win money. They are scam games. Shame on your company from allowing these ads to interrupt your great game. If you don’t believe me about those games that say you can win money, just read their reviews. anyway if this keeps up I’m going to delete this game. There’s plenty of other mind games out there that don’t make you watch several long ads. Edit: after reading many other reviews I see that the situation with these long ads after short play has been complained about since earlier this year at the least. And they have not changed it so I don’t think that they will. Sometimes the ads are longer than the play sessions. Going to delete. EDIT EDIT: thank you for replying. But I already deleted your game. I don’t think you need to bombard your players with the amount of ads that you allow. I am sure you are making enough money. Or maybe your expenses are too high. Budget better. Cut the chaff..Version: 1.25.4
✓ Slows down your phoneWhen i downloaded this app it slowed down my iphone 13 so much so dont get it.Version: 1.46.8
✓ Not accessible at allI used to be really good at games like this before I lost my site. This game is not accessible at all for blind people it is flipping hopeless. All it takes is a little more time to program it with the ability for iPhone or Samsung with a VoiceOver function to recognise what is in boxes you could easily set it up to see box contains W write letter right place box contains T right letter wrong place box contains E wrong letter so it would be really simple. But developers never think that blind people want to play games like this but I do I’m intelligent I like to tax my mind as well… So Mr developer please rejig your app so that it works with the VoiceOver function or the Bixby function on Samsung thank you.Version: 1.6.0
✓ Too many plural words and double lettersI’ve been playing this app for about 2 weeks and even paid the $2.99 to stop the ads. To be fair, I only get ads now if I want more coins, otherwise, the games all run ad free so the $2.99 is definitely worth it to me. However, the powers that be need to work on their word lists. There are far too many plural words AND too many words with double letters such as loons (plural AND double vowel). It makes this a mere guessing game and not a true challenge. You can easily waste 2-3 word guesses and it’s just not fun. I’d much rather deduce a word like ‘hound’ or ‘globe’ than what I am getting with words like ‘doors’ or ‘moves’ or ‘moved’ (past tense). I have read the free ‘real’ version has yet to use plurals for this year 2022. Use challenging 5 letter words rather than plurals or verb tenses..Version: 1.13.0
✓ More ads than gameplayAds before games. Ads in between games. Ads before getting your prize. Did you back out of your game and are going back in? Ad. Did you accidentally let your phone sleep? Ad. Did you make a guess? Probably going to get an ad. I get that ads are helpful for keeping games free. And I don’t mind sitting through an ad or two when I can still spend a decent amount of time playing the game. But there’s absolutely no way this many ads are required for this game. They slow down what should be quick gameplay to a grinding halt. For comparison, I can play the Sudoku app and get one ad before starting, and one more in the middle of the puzzle, and maybe one at the of the puzzle. 10-20 minutes of gameplay with only 2 or 3 ads. So, there’s absolutely no reason I should be getting ads every few seconds with this game, even having them in between guesses of the same word. Obvious cash grab. Deleted the game after a few days..Version: 1.35.3
✓ Doesn’t want me to do too well.Love this game, especially the word fever. Unfortunately the game keeps crashing every time I get close to my high score on the four letter version. Absolutely gutted after I almost got to a thousand and it closed the app. Other than that would recommend this game..Version: 1.22.0
✓ Paid version is a con! Be warnedPaid to remove ads, now it’s charging me coins to play the Challenge version and previous dates, both of which I could play for free if watching an ad or two. As the ads were getting increasingly longer it was becoming impossible to play, and having enjoyed the game for a few days to pass the time while battling Covid I decided to ‘remove ads’ for £4.99 - however, whilst the ads are now gone, I can’t play previous dates or Challenge games unless I pay 150 coins each time! Feel I’ve been conned here, misleading advertising. iTunes informed, refund immediately requested..Version: 1.25.4
✓ Too many ads!!!Will stick to the knock off version for apps and go back to just doing the NY Times one, as this app is riddled with ads, sometimes you have to put up with multiple long ads about silly games, it’s so frustrating especially for such a popular app!.Version: 1.16.0
✓ ThievesAlthough the game is enjoyable, the ads are punishing. They make you watch an ad after each game and then again before a new one, and if you take too long during a game they will throw an ad in there too. As this was driving me nuts I purchased the ‘no ads’ option for $10. What they failed to mention is that instead of watching ads to play additional daily challenges, I now have to use ‘coins’ to play anything but the current day. Which of course if you don’t have enough of you have to purchase with real money. If the thieves had mentioned this I would not have given them the $10.Version: 1.22.0
✓ The dictionary isn’t particularly extensive or challengingIt’s okay for a word game, but play it long enough and you get the same words coming round - some far to many. I find it really irritating that many of the words are actually pluralised 4 letter words, or past tense 4 letter words. Which is ridiculous given how many actual 5 letter words there are to chose from. I am properly irritated by the adverts but good that you skip them after a few seconds. And just as well as there was a pretty graphic advert for a 17+ app which my child got an unexpected glimpse of. You’d think word games would be pretty much risk free for kids, but then they go and chuck wholly inappropriate adverts on there. That ought to be reviewed!.Version: 1.24.3
✓ Paid to remove ads, yet ads remain!I’ve never been compelled to write a negative review before this, but I’m outraged and feel as if my money has been stolen. The ads in this app are simply intolerable, but I love Wordle, so I paid A$9.99 to remove the ads. The ads didn’t go anywhere. I’d be inclined to think that I’d done something wrong if it wasn’t for the fact that numerous other people are complaining about the same thing. We’ve all been scammed and I can’t believe this is legal..Version: 1.14.4
✓ Ads that you can’t closeI get ads will exist, but it’s gotten to the point where many don’t have exit buttons (even after you’ve waited for the timer to run through) so you have to close the app and start again. So over it..Version: 1.35.0
✓ RIDICULOUSLY full of ads!!!When I first downloaded it it was awesome! You could play several levels and only have to put up with an ad or two. And you can join a team, and get cute pets, and compete in tournaments! 🤩 But recently; there have been SO MANY ADS IT’S DRIVING ME UP THE WALL!!!😡 If you back up from the app for ONE SECOND and go back on it immediately gives you an ad! And if you go onto the group chat and back out it’ll most likely play an ad too!😤 Plus the random times it just decides “you know what this person needs? 30 seconds of their life wasted watching advertisements for other games.”😑 So PLEASE do SOMETHING about it? It used to be such an awesome game ☹️.Version: 1.31.0
✓ Would not recommendI am a inspector of apps like these and I decided to go over the privacy policy and the guidelines, now when you download it the terms of services immediately pop up giving you no chance but to click it. Of course this is normal but it’s kind of a bad choice because it gets normal users to just click agree and it will never show up again. Now as any non-normal person would do like me I read all of the guidelines and they were fine. Until I got to the privacy policy, turns out that if you hit agree then you are giving access to the creators to take every bit of information that they can find. Even taking it to 3rd party websites, not only will they take your IP address they will force you to make an account so they have your email address, your name, and your Facebook friends. Of course some of these are opinions but still some people would not be caring enough to just fill it out. Also there are way too many ads, so many that it’s aggravating. But that is all there really is, be careful about what you download and I hope you found this helpful..Version: 1.11.2
✓ RubbishTotal rubbish and a waste of time not even worthy of a one star rating. Ads popping up during games. Double letters are shown as being correct (although in wrong positions) when in fact there’s only one of that particular letter. Whoever created this garbage needs to learn how to programme and not waste everyone’s time..Version: 1.11.0
✓ Limited answersSometimes more than one word can be made using the letters, for example Male, meal and lame are valid answers for those 4 letters but the game will only accept the one it thinks is correct. That’s a bit frustrating..Version: 1.2
✓ The ads are ridiculousI really loved this game but I am on the verge of deleting it. for some reason someone thought it was better to have an ad in between every guess than in between each game. I cannot make a guess without getting not only an ad, but a long one. even when I attempt to skip the ads, I have trouble because it won’t let me exit out. I get why games have ads and all of that, but at the same time you’re ruining a game by putting so many at the worse times. if you really want to have so many ads, why not make players watch ads to skip a round and/or get hints? the ads can also be placed before starting a round and at the end of one. based on the handful of reviews i’ve read, no one is asking for no ads they’re asking for less and better placement. it’s also ridiculous that so many reviews are complaining about the ads yet nothing is being done about them..Version: 1.11.0
✓ Scam, paid for no ads and there’s still adsScam app, paid to get it ad free and there’s still 30 second unskippable ads.Version: 1.13.0
✓ ADS! Ads ads adsCould be fun if it wasn’t for all the ads. 12.99 to buy out of ADs..Version: 1.46.8
✓ Remove AdsI liked the free version but the ads irritated me. So I bought the app which said “Remove ads”. I thought it would remove ads. It has not. Feeling I have been ripped off unless I am doing something wrong. Also no instructions on how to play the game and how to turn sound off or what happens when you get a wrong word and some letters disappear and others are highlighted. Some explanation would be handy. Mostly though I want to be rid of ads!.Version: 1.5.1
✓ The number of ads are insane.A friend of mine told me to try this really cool game that is low commitment, single word a day. I installed the game, started the game up and played a round. Ad pops up. At this point I started having a sinking feeling in my stomach. As expected, after every round there's an ad. The ads are super irritating as well. Pressing the x button to close the ad opens up the software it's trying to sell instead. How annoying! At this point I was like F this. Im going back to geometry dash..Version: 1.6.0
✓ Very disappointing….My child’s teacher used an app called “wordle” in class and they absolutely loved it. They came back home and stated “Can I get this app” and I obviously said sure since I knew that the teacher wouldn’t of used it if it wasn’t a good app. Turns out that they used the New York Times for wordle (which is what I had to switch to.) This app is very disappointing since they have potential but there soo is full of adverts and other pointless things (including spending money on the app to get more things.) My child then asked me if they could get this other pointless app that was about anything but Literacy. I would recommend going on New York Times for wordle (just search up wordle on google) as there is no ads and I love starting my day with a daily wordle. In summary this app is very disappointing and is a waste of time. Do not download!!!!.Version: 1.38.0
✓ Good Game. Atrocious amount of Ads.Like most other reviewers I’m here to complain about the ads. The game is great. The Ads are the worst I’ve come across and make it unbearable. I genuinely hope you masterminds take note and do something about this. You have the international popularity platform you don’t need this level of ads to make your fortune. Charge more for less frequency- they’ll pay and we’ll play..Version: 1.11.0
✓ Quite annoyingI downloaded this because of all the drama about it on TikTok.. it’s not even good, I can’t lie. Rather boring and the way people on TikTok live streams play it makes me mad for some reason. They take it so seriously, like there’s money on it or something. They think about every possible outcome ever and it makes me mad because it’s just a game. Play it and make it fun! Don’t make it stressful or whatever. This is the type of game that annoying math loving people who enjoy correcting peoples every little mistake like to play. Also I’ve pressed the ‘skip level button’ instead of the ‘submit’ button around 3 times now and it’s so annoyinggg! My brain automatically assumes the send/submit button will be there because of where it’s located in iMessage.. I could’ve used it when I actually needed to, not when I’m literally about to win. Please move the button or add a confirmation thingy before actually skipping it, that’d be way better!.Version: 1.14.4
✓ Fun but ads are SO annoyingThe concept is fun and the game is well done. But the ads are popping up so often and are taking so much time they break the spirit of the game. I bought the game and ads keep coming. Misleading. Stay clear of this version..Version: 1.12.2
✓ Borderline UnplayableAlright, I get that hosting an app on the Apple app store is expensive for developers. I understand having advertisements to get some revenue and afford server costs and such. But I do not understand how people can play a game while being bombarded by advertisements like this. Lose? Have to watch an ad. Win? Your prize is an ad! Type any word in right or wrong? Ad! Open the quick menu to adjust your brightness? AD! Its unplayable. It would help if the ads also weren’t the bottom of the barrel, “come here play this other bad game it’s so addicting you won’t be able to sleep” etc etc crap. It feels like I’m watching the ads more than I’m playing the game. And no, I’m not going to pay to remove ads when I can just find a better free game out there. And before you say just put it in airplane mode, that doesn’t work either. I deleted the app, I’ll just use the New York Times version instead..Version: 1.41.1
✓ What’s all the hype for?It’s basically hangman without the entertainment of seeing the stick man get closer to being hanged with each wrong guess. There’s a game called secret word that quickly gets old because it quickly repeats the same words so you’re just repeating the same game endlessly. You get a free gift every day but it’s the kind of app that instead of just resetting every day, it resets according to the first time you open the app that day. So if you don’t play it all day until 10 at night one day, you have to wait until 10 PM the next day before the gift reappears. Also they have that annoying feature where you fill a piggy bank with correct answers and then you can buy it for a few dollars. You can’t just win free coins, you have to buy them. It’s cheaper than the regular price but I still feel like it’s a ripoff to “earn” a full piggy bank and then have to pay for it. I really don’t get what all the fuss is about. Overrated.Version: 1.14.4
✓ TpsidipaigonnSolve this title - it’s free from ads and won’t cost you anything. I initially liked the game, but the number of ads were so distracting that I couldn’t fully enjoy it. For example, when an ad started while I was on a timer and in the middle of solving a word, my concentration disappeared, my frustration heightened and by the time the game restarted, my patience was practically depleted. I did continue to complete the game but timed out because my mind was more on my emotions than on the game. If you don’t mind paying for the “no ads” app, then you may have a better experience. I don’t pay for my apps because I usually have enough tolerance to suffer through the number of ads. But this app, along with others I’ve deleted for the same problem, was beyond my tolerance levels. Funnily some of the ads during my Wordle game were for apps I’d previously deleted. Same developer??.Version: 1.11.2
✓ I feel short changedI have had success and absolute failure also. When i do succeed the answer flashes away far too quickly for me to review after spending a deal of time and effort to get there. When i am totally bamboozled is there anyway of at least giving me the answer so i can see where i m going wrong? Enjoyable but also frustrating..Version: 1.24.3
✓ DELETED due to Annoying AdsI’ve now had enough of the ridiculous and annoying number of ads that just make this game unplayable, and despite numerous complaints over several months by other users of this game, the developers have totally ignore this feedback, and to add insult the ads now appear to have increase in volume and in some cases two ads are now being displayed at a time. This is a good game and I think we all appreciate that the developers need to generate money, however, the developers are losing sight that unless they reduce the numbers of ads, the users of this game will no longer want to play this game and as such your users base will reduce to a level were your. Advertisers will no longer fund you.. I would be interested in the developers feedback on what they intend to do to improve users experience…….Version: 1.41.1
✓ DepressingDownloaded this after hearing greats things. I’m an expert top-rated scrabble player but cannot get to level 3. Some normal words are disallowed for instance. Also the time limit is ridiculous bearing in mind you cannot undo a mis-tapped letter. You just have to undo the lot by pressing the shuffle button top right. There are far too many long annoying ads as well and I just shut down the app and start again on a hectic panic-stricken path to get to level 3. Surely I can’t be that useless I think? But as it is structured I am. It depresses me and makes me anxious at the same time. The horrible noises add to my stress. Not at all relaxing and I hope the developers listen to the long list of unhappy users here. It has potential, but as it stands, deleting is the only option for a peaceful life..Version: 1.4.2
✓ Treeiblen —Too Many AdsI have time to make a snack while this thing loads all its ads. Ads at the start. Ads while playing. Ads at the end. You can’t get the time back! Pass.Version: 1.46.8
✓ Please allow more time to view a finished boardOnce you click the fast forward button to reveal the answer - you get maybe a second to see the answer and the whole screen. Please make it so you can view it for longer and maybe click a button saying “next” - this is a great feature of the times wordle. You can refer back to your puzzle board for the whole day.Version: 1.12.2
✓ Why bother?I get that the free version you have to have ads, but honestly, each advert lasts so much longer than any opportunity you have to play. If the adverts were shorter and less frequent I would have kept the app and even tried some of the other games, but it’s just too, too annoying. Even the pay for site (according to other reviews) is interrupted - so why bother? Oi Designers! ads are to help you generate profitability, by making the ads so long, repeated and annoying, you’re not helping your advertisers - you’re just killing your market - bye! Btw - if you’re looking for the free daily one everybody is talking about it’s on the Wall Street journal WSJ website - don’t bother with the app!!!.Version: 1.10.1
✓ N’est pas en français!Dans la description c’est écrit Français et pourtant il est en anglais. J’ai été voir dans les réglages et il n’y a pas d’option française..Version: 1.26.1
✓ Don’t pay to remove ads!!!I have downloaded this game Feb ‘23 and I am enjoying it however there is a section of the game which gives you the ‘puzzle of the day’ daily. I have found you can play previous POTD games right up to the beginning of the year however you must watch an ad or two because in fact their are two puzzles they offer daily. One 5 word puzzle and a challenging 6 word puzzle. At first this didn’t seem to be an issue but the ads seemed tedious after a while and I really wanted to finish the previous POTD’s without delay so I could be caught up. So it was that reason I decided to pay for the ‘No Ads’ option £5.99 to gain me access. I return to the POTD section only to find that rather than watching an add I had to use 150 gold coins to unlock a previous POTD puzzle instead and another after that for the challenging 6 word puzzle. Gold coins are in-game currency you have to pay for or slowly accumulate playing the main game which other reviewers have said made up words that doesn’t exist. Very disappointing, gold coins should be reserved only for hints and tips. Paying £5.99 to remove the ads only to blocked again by in game currency. My opinion just watch the ads..Version: 1.31.0
✓ Ok, could be better…The reason for the OK rating is that the game is too easy and the game itself can be beat. First, five letter words are easily figured out. To make the game more challenging six or seven letter words, as an option, would help. Second, following the rules of the game itself, if you amass enough coins you can use the hints to simply reveal the word. And, it is easy to build up a huge pile of coins by playing the mini games. When you do this, you effectively beat the game itself. To fix this, the developers could limit the use of clues to once or maybe twice per word. As it stands right now, even without using the hints to “cheat” the game, it is not very challenging and after a few weeks of playing, I no longer open it..Version: 1.18.0
✓ Ads too frequentGame is almost unplayable with how many back-to-back ads. I often get 4 in a row. Unskippable too..Version: 1.30.0
✓ 3 Ads every submitCouldn’t be bothered with the constant ads playing thru before you can skip. Takes you right off track with your thoughts. Then ya enter a word and boom another set of ads. Deleted!.Version: 1.6.0
✓ Such a DisappointmentI’ve only been using this App for a few months & whilst I still haven’t worked out all it’s features I was really enjoying it ….. Until such time as it would no longer connect to the server & had me caught in the last 4 hours of a tournament that I’d put a lot of effort into getting myself up to Masters League. Sadly, the only way for me to fix this was to delete & reinstall the App & yes, that meant deleting my entire history & achievements! Attempted to restart … motivation completely destroyed … such a disappointment!.Version: 1.34.0
✓ Fraud scamming ect.Terrible, the ads are incredibly annoying.I would REALLY recommend not buying the ad free payment, it is a fraud. their are way to many ads in general and that should be replaced in advanced of all of these ratings too. my all over issues with this app was fraud , scamming and they unconditionally amount of ads that was put upon the app. It would definitely wouldn’t hurt to upgrade this disgraceful app. as much as I want to support this app, it’s just too overwhelming..Version: 1.11.0
✓ Regret!Paid for this because I love word games and the trial was pretty cool, but still get adverts for their games that won’t go away and I have to shut the game down. Wish I could get my money back..Version: 1.7.0
✓ Too many adsWould be a great game if we weren’t interrupted every 30 seconds for an ad. Throws the excitement right out the window..Version: 1.12.2
✓ Far too many addsIt’s a good game that I enjoy, but there are just far too many adds for it to be playable. There is literally an add every time that u submit a word.Version: 1.11.2
✓ Annoying ads even when you pay premiumI paid the $10 to remove ads but every day it gives you “gifts” and you can’t get into the game without opening one- which takes you to an advert for one of their other games and very hard to get back into the game. The game itself is good but the Xsells are too annoying I’m going to uninstall it. Waste of $10 paying for premium to still get bombarded with rubbish adverts.Version: 1.21.1
✓ Sick of adsPaid the $9.99 to be ad free but there are still plenty of ads to endure feel a little ripped off. DO NOT pay to have ads removed because you only get less.Version: 1.16.0
✓ Ads in new update are incredibly annoyingI like some of the things you did in the new update. Shuffling letters is good, and it’s better with bigger letters. I don’t like how you now can’t undo a letter by clicking on it… you have to reset the whole word if you get any letters wrong, which makes it harder to get words in on time if you make a simple letter mistake. And I HATE how many ads there are now. I get you need ads for money, but seriously, why does it have to be after every go? I reset the app every time an add comes up anyway, I never watch them. So they are more of an annoyance than anything..Version: 1.4.1
✓ Not greatToo many ads and way more restrictive than the original game. Once you guess a word with a letter in the correct position all future guesses are required to have that letter there.Version: 1.46.6
✓ NOISYThis is quite a nice wee game but the fact you can’t switch the noises off AT ALL even if you turn your sound down to 0 is annoying beyond belief. I like to play this type of game while listening to podcasts or audible, or when I can’t sleep or when I’m stuck on hold on the phone in the office ….utterly limits when I can play this game and the noises have not only driven me mad but my family. Get it sorted as otherwise you’ll lose your customers. I certainly wouldn’t upgrade …not even for no noise…your inconsiderate settings have really annoyed me enough to try and find something else.Version: 1.2
✓ Ridiculous amount of adsI mean I get that’s how you make your money, but they pop up every single go and sometimes multiple times..Version: 1.6.0
✓ This Enrages Me - Another Copycat AppI downloaded this a couple weeks ago when Wordle (where you guess a word in 6 tries) got popular. Deleted once I saw it was a completely different app and the Wordle I was looking for was a website lol. I didn’t care about this app until today when I got an app for something that looked exactly like Wordle, but with a different font. I realized this app just added a feature called “6 guesses” that’s just hopping onto the trend and exploiting the fact that the app and the popular game happen to have to the same name. Someone put actual work into Wordle and now these app developers are straight up copying them! And the app store is just letting them. Ugh. UPDATE: I redownloaded the app and noticed the “6 Guesses” is now the “Classic” mode. CLASSIC. This game originally has you make as many words as you can with the letters given: now the original purpose is called “Word Fever” and they’re pretending like they’ve ALWAYS been Wordle, the 5-letter word guessing app. UGH..Version: 1.9.1
✓ Not really ad free is it?I paid for the removal of ads, because the game is otherwise good and the ads without paying are incredibly annoying…but all it does is introduce slightly less annoying ads. It’s constantly prompting you to view an ad to unlock skips, or make you click to view an ad after finishing a game. This shouldn’t be the case when you pay to remove ads. Finally, the functionality of the app is ‘fine’. Good concept but occasionally it doesn’t register clicks on letters too well (playing on iphone 13 so don’t think it’s an issue with older touch screens). Game is decent, but requested a refund as I can’t bring myself to put up with the functionality….Version: 1.5.1
✓ Not often…Do I write reviews… but I started seeing a lot more people were playing an old game revived by New York Times. Anyways, I like the fact that you can continue to play instead of one puzzle a day. What I dislike is that you cant share your puzzle winnings on Facebook with the APP, yet the one a day website version you can share. Also, the ads are horrendous! If there is any way to cut back on them the game would be great, if and when they added on the other things I mentioned of course. I know there’s people out there dying and waiting for that 24 hour countdown. I can’t buy the premium version with no ads because I’m poor and still trying to pick up where the pandemic dropped me!! But hey I’ll take a $3 donation to my Apple ID!! 😂😂 - ☮️ and ❤️ God bless.Version: 1.11.0
✓ AwfulToo many long and annoying ads…… Gave up. Plus I would never use a link to ad add through your game ………….. based on the review the ratings are fake plus looks like a scam app that needs to be investigated by apple..Version: 1.14.4
✓ Fun but the ads are too muchGreat game simple yet effective. The ads however are very long and some are tricky to close..Version: 1.15.1
✓ $10 for what???Game is fun but the constant ads are so intolerable it makes sense to pay the $10 to get rid of them right? Wrong. Instead, if you want to play an extra game (that is, a game other than todays game) rather than having to watch an ad you have to pay with ‘coins’ - and while a few coins can be earned in gameplay, the reality is you need to buy coins to keep playing. So, don’t waste $10 on getting rid of ads unless you want to pay silly money for their coins to play again. SCAM.Version: 1.24.3
✓ Not as good as people sayI downloaded wordle because everyone was going crazy about it but it is not that good , it is quite basic and simple it is not as exciting as I’d hoped. But it is more fun that word search games I guess but I am not that impressed with Wordle and I am not stunned by this new game. And what is up with the ads!!! There are ads like every minute!! That is definitely something that needs to be fixed. There are limited options in the game but i guess it is more fun and has more games in it than any other random word game. I don’t get why everyone was going crazy about the game and were so happy about it, I just don’t get it! But I do like the ‘5 guesses’ option in the game, can be fun! I don’t think this game was the best idea but there was one thing I did like which I mentioned above. Thank you..Version: 1.8.0
✓ LadyXrayI am so happy I have helped you make your fortune. I do expect to see a number of ads and understand seeing them for my playing the app BUT With the number of adverts I’ve suffered in the period I’ve had this app I personally must have contributed a small fortune!!! . I have never experienced any other app to have this many. Every four words and sometimes LESS there are one or two ads. TOO MANY. and so I’m deleting. Happy to have helped you on your way. Not.!!.Version: 1.10.0
✓ AdsAds. Every. Five. Seconds..Version: 1.12.2
✓ The worst appWould give give it 0 stars if I could. Way too many ads, so ridiculous, game isn’t even enjoyable. Literally get an ad in the middle of the game after each word I’ve guessed..Version: 1.12.2
✓ WAY too many adsDecent game, but you spend 5 minutes watching ads for every 1-2 minutes playing time. Deleted it within a day or two, can’t stand that.Version: 1.46.6
✓ AdsWay way way too many ads, couldn’t even enjoy enough to contemplate paying to remove ads, did I mention the ads?.Version: 1.9.1
✓ Calm down with the adsThis is a basic game where you have six attempts to guess a word, and I find it pretty fun. I want to rate it higher, but there is absolutely no reason there should be an advertisement after every two guesses! Not to mention, the sheer amount of ads makes it actually beneficial to close and reopen the game every time one pops up. I understand wanting an ad after each round maybe, but not three per round, that’s absolutely obscene. There’s been multiple times that I would forget a word I was gonna guess because an ad popped up and took 15 seconds to close, and other times where the game straight up crashed because it couldn’t load an ad. Yes, you’re offering the game for free and that comes with ads, I get that, but at some point it’s infuriating and incentivizes the average person to delete your app in exchange for another, and considering this is a fairly common game of which multiple apps exist to play, I see zero reason to use your app over any of the others..Version: 1.9.1
✓ SCAMThis game is not the real Wordle and is scamming by “removing ads” at a cost than doesn’t remove ads, not impressed!!!!.Version: 1.12.2
✓ Too many adsI love playing this game but I'm about to delete it because of the ads. I used to get them after I completed a game, then it became that I had to watch an ad before starting a game. Then if I closed the game and resumed it later I had to watch an ad. Now if I set my phone down (but leave the game open) and it the screen goes onto lock mode I have to watch an ad to resume. Now an add pops up while I am actively playing a game. And these aren’t quick ads either. They go on forever. I let it run until I get an X to close the ad and then there’s another part of the ad that sometimes runs for 30 seconds before I can close it out. Sometimes there are 3 levels to the ad that I have to sit through. It makes it not worth playing the game anymore..Version: 1.35.3
✓ Ads ads ads ads. Where is the game?All this app is designed to do is get revenue from Ads, and con people out of $5 to get rid of them The game is fun, when you get a chance to play. Anytime I try to play the daily challenge, I have to watch a 30 sec Ad first. There is also an Ad between every game… I might have paid the $5 to remove Ads if I could have at least SOME kind of uninterrupted time playing, before getting an Ad. As it is I play one game then manually shut down the app when the ad starts. I won’t pay the $5, to get rid of ads, because I simply can’t get a feel for the game with them there. The developers have no concept of gameplay/ad balance. Developers: No amount of contacting support is going to alter the ad/game ratio. I’m not going to give you my email to sell and/or send me even MORE ads for your ad infested products. That’s a greater waste of my time..Version: 1.26.0
✓ LangageJ’aimerais avoir une version francophone.Version: 1.24.0
✓ DreadfulI have just deleted this app as ads are now 30 seconds long and make playing Wordle impossible. There are better apps than this one.😞.Version: 1.15.1
✓ Waaaaaay to many ads!!!!!Only gave it one star because that was the lowest amount. The ads are relentless in this app! Too frustrating to keep playing..Version: 1.29.4
✓ Way too many adds!I like this game but I get an add after every guess. This makes the game unplayable in my opinion so although I like the game I will be deleting it..Version: 1.9.0
