App Description
The Crossword and Anagram Solver helps you when you get stuck on a crossword:
• Enter the letters you already know, and the blank squares you don't, and let the app do the rest
• Solve anagrams
• Shuffle anagram letters manually, to give you a hint without handing you the answer immediately
• Look up words in the thesaurus, and get lists of synonyms
• Get definitions of words (built-in, or using DuckDuckGo's online dictionary)
Basic crossword solving is always free. The advanced features require a paid upgrade (after a free trial to try them out).
Your use of the app and purchase of any upgrades is subject to the standard Apple Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
The app uses a combination of the UK Advanced Cryptics Dictionary and the WordNet® dictionary to find suitable words to fit in the grid.
