User Reviews

Reviewers praise addictive gameplay and strong social/history features, while criticizing intrusive ads, non-random letter distribution, an outdated word list, lack of blocking/reporting options, and unreliable push notifications. The app remains reliable and simple for many players, but these recurring issues impact long-term satisfaction.

Pros

Addictive and enjoyable gameplay.
Rich history and social features: view past games, track scores, chat with opponents, and look up word definitions.
Reliable and bug-free with accurate Scrabble rules.
Clean, simple interface that’s easy to use.
Ads are not intrusive.

Cons

Ads can be loud, intrusive, or disrupt audio and board view (banner ads and audio hijacking).
Letter distribution feels non-random, with frequent vowels on many hands.
Dictionary/word list needs updating and is inconsistent (valid words sometimes rejected).
No option to block or report cheaters/toxic players.
Push notifications are unreliable or broken.

I was 300 points ahead of Clive so when I won, instead of their giving me maybe 20 points, they gave him around 100 points for losing to me. What the heck! Getting so tired of Words making mistakes like this.

I know you probably get $$$ from ads to keep the app going, but the inappropriate ad content ruin the experience for me. Also, update your dictionary.
