## Description

The Crossword & Anagram Solver helps you when you get stuck on a crossword: enter the letters you know, leave the blanks, and let the app do the rest. It can solve anagrams, shuffle letters for hints, and look up words in the built-in thesaurus and definitions, including definitions from DuckDuckGo's online dictionary. The app relies on the UK Advanced Cryptics Dictionary and WordNet to find fitting words for the grid.

Basic crossword solving is free. Advanced features require a paid upgrade after a free trial. The app uses licensed dictionaries (UK Advanced Cryptics Dictionary) and WordNet to provide word fits.
