How to use the word finder
1. Add your rack. Type only the letters you can play. Repeated letters are counted separately.
2. Include blanks. Choose one or two wildcards when your game gives you blank tiles.
3. Check your game. Dictionaries and accepted spellings differ between games and regions, so confirm a word against the official word list for your game.
Word unscrambler tips
Begin with common endings such as -ing, -ed, -er and -ly. Then test likely pairs such as th, ch, sh and qu.
For a repeatable practice method, read how to get faster at word unscrambles. After a game, use the fair-play word-finder review routine to turn a difficult rack into a focused practice list.
A worked letter example
Enter C, A, T, E and R and the finder can reveal several five-letter arrangements as well as shorter results. A result uses each supplied letter no more often than it appears in the rack. Adding one blank allows that wildcard to stand for one missing letter, but it does not add unlimited copies.
Use it fairly
A finder is useful for post-game review, solo practice and games whose rules explicitly allow external aids. Keep it closed during an active game when the rules or other players prohibit assistance. Fun IQ does not determine eligibility for a tournament, club or commercial word game; the governing rules and official word list take priority.
Accessibility and privacy
The results are presented as selectable text and can be filtered without dragging tiles. The input has a visible label, and status messages explain when no supported result is found. Letters are sent only to the Fun IQ word endpoint to calculate the requested list; they are not treated as personal information or added to an account history.

Word finder FAQs
What is a word unscrambler?
A word unscrambler finds valid words that can be made from a set of letters. It is useful for learning vocabulary, checking possibilities and practising anagram recognition.
Can I use blank or wildcard tiles?
Yes. Select one or two blank tiles and the finder will include words that use those wildcards for missing letters.
Does the longest word always score highest?
Not necessarily. Letter values, premium squares and board position can make a shorter word more valuable, so treat length as a useful starting point.
Is this an official Scrabble dictionary?
No. Accepted words vary by game, country and tournament word list. Always confirm a result against the official dictionary for the game you are playing.
