The Crossword and Anagram Solver helps you when you get stuck on a crossword:

• Enter the letters you already know, and the blank squares you dont, and let the app do the rest

• Solve anagrams

• Shuffle anagram letters manually, to give you a hint without handing you the answer immediately

• Look up words in the thesaurus, and get lists of synonyms

• Get definitions of words (built-in, or using DuckDuckGos online dictionary)

Basic crossword solving is always free. The advanced features require a paid upgrade (after a free trial to try them out).

Your use of the app and purchase of any upgrades is subject to the standard Apple Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

The app uses a combination of the UK Advanced Cryptics Dictionary and the WordNet® dictionary to find suitable words to fit in the grid.

Pros and cons of The Crossword & Anagram Solver app for iPhone and iPad

The Crossword & Anagram Solver app good for

I love this app! Thank you. Easy to use. Nice clear layout. Helps a lot when Im stuck on a word. Even solves it...sweet!
This app is great. Sure helps in solving "interesting" clues.
I have been using this app for several years now and it sure helps me figure out those final elusive clues, especially in the cryptics. I recommend it!
The app works perfectly and replaces my old word finder, anagram solver and dictionary/thesaurus apps. I especially liked the use of the space key for missing letters and the use of a single tap to delete previous requests in the entry box. The ability to check the meaning of a candidate word in a list without losing the list is brilliant. Well done
I use the Crossword solver every day and find it really helps. I also like the way it links to definitions. I am always learning something new. Thanks guys!

Some bad moments

I cant conceive of a better crossword aide -- easy to use, backed by a vast word list, and, for a bonus, it even provides the definitions for all words it suggests. Its a great app for any crossword enthusiast willing to accept help. Just the thing to bring you to success when youre about to cry, "Uncle!" Thanks for whoever it is who offered up this free(!) app.
This is a very straightforward app and is simple, yet effective to use. It is not as involved as many are but is worthy of adding. It is my "go to" app for word searching.
Excellent but ads are annoying. It seems there is no way to get rid of them even by payment
Excellent! I need to restrain myself from looking before I must....
This one is perfect! The others have way too many ads. I love this app, its so easy to use and is very comprehensive!!
This app makes me so happy knowing I can finish the days crossword! Thanks.
