Extension summary

Analyze keywords

As a fan of the spelling bee, I have always found the hints page to be a bit tedious. Why should the user have to go to a whole separate webpage, instead of seeing hints info on the spelling bee page itself? Better yet, why not provide hints based on which words still remain unfound, so that the user doesn't have to sift through irrelevant information?

This extension provides the spelling bee player with a better hints experience. Once the user decides they are ready for hints, they will conveniently appear on the spelling bee webpage, and they will update with each newly found word.

Happy bee-ing!

User reviews

A simple and efficient way to access the spelling bee hints without having to switch to the official page. Far less obtrusive and complicated than other spelling bee extensions I've seen and NO spoilers.

Wow, what an improvement! I disliked having to flip back and forth between bee page and hints page, trying to remember the info on the hints page. Furthermore, this new extension distills the info on the hints page and displays it in a more useful manner. Sure makes doing the bee more fun!

Using this clever system of hints for the NYT Spelling Bee has added immeasurably to my Spelling Bee enjoyment and decreased my frustration level as I travel ever closer to the elusive Queen Bee.
