How to play Letter Swipe
- Pick a level. Today is the daily puzzle with a leaderboard; New puzzle is unlimited practice.
- Press on a letter and slide across the others to spell a word, then let go. Each letter on the wheel can be used once per word. You can also tap letters one by one and press Enter, or type on a keyboard.
- Words that belong in the grid fill in automatically. Other real words made from the letters are saved as bonus words.
- Fill every word in the grid to stop the clock. Shuffle moves the letters around; Hint reveals one letter and adds 15 seconds.

| Easy | 5 | 4 |
| Medium | 6 | 6 |
| Hard | 7 | 8 |
Every puzzle starts from one everyday word that uses all the wheel letters; it is always somewhere in the grid. The other answers are everyday words from our public-domain ENABLE dictionary that the same letters can spell and that Open English WordNet defines (so no names or abbreviations), with offensive words removed. Our generator lays them out crossword-style so every word crosses another. There are 366 puzzles per level in the daily rotation.

Frequently asked questions
How is this different from a word search?
In a word search the words are hidden in a full grid of letters. Here you build each word yourself from the wheel letters, and the crossword grid only shows you the length and the crossing letters.
Do bonus words count?
They don't fill the grid or change your time; they are there for fun and are counted under the wheel.
Do hints affect the leaderboard?
Each hint adds 15 seconds to your time, so you can still post a daily score, just a slower one.
Is Letter Swipe free?
Yes. Daily puzzles at every level and unlimited practice puzzles, no sign-up or app download needed.
