Hands-on tools for
word puzzle lovers

Our apps are interactive workspaces, not answer generators. Instead of typing in letters and getting a word list, you get draggable tiles that you physically rearrange. They're designed to help you think through puzzles rather than skip the thinking entirely.

Yes. Both apps include a 14-day free trial with full access to all features. After the trial, core functionality is still available but some features require a subscription. You can manage your subscription at any time from the banknote icon in the app.

Simple Anagram Helper runs on iPhone and iPad. It's built natively with SwiftUI for the best experience on each platform.

No. Our apps do not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. All processing happens locally on your device. There are no analytics, no tracking tools, and no advertising SDKs. See our Privacy Policy for full details.

Open the app and tap the banknote icon in the top-left corner. On the subscription screen, tap "Restore Purchases". This will check your Apple ID for any active subscriptions and restore access.

Type your letters into the text field at the top, then tap "Start". Your letters will appear as blue, draggable tiles in the workspace. From there you can drag them into the ordered boxes above, rearrange them, or shuffle them to see new combinations.

The boxes are the ordered row at the top — drag tiles there to spell out words in sequence. The workspace is the grey area below where tiles can float freely. You can drag tiles between the two areas. Use the drag bar at the bottom to resize the workspace.

Tap any tile that's in a box to lock it in place — it turns black with a lock icon. Locked tiles won't move when you shuffle or drag other tiles. Tap again to unlock. This is useful when you're confident about some letter positions and want to experiment with the rest.

If tiles are in the workspace, Shuffle randomly rearranges those floating tiles. If all tiles are in boxes, Shuffle randomly reorders the unlocked tiles within the boxes. Locked tiles always stay put.

Fill Boxes takes all tiles currently in the workspace and places them randomly into empty boxes. It also collapses the workspace to its minimum height so you can focus on the letter sequence.

After the 14-day trial, you can still use the app but you'll be limited to 4 letters at a time. Subscribe for unlimited letters and full access to all features.

Try these steps: (1) Force-close the app and reopen it. (2) Restart your device. (3) Check the App Store for updates. (4) If the issue continues, contact us at contact@eslaforde.com with your device model and iOS version.

Tap the Shuffle button to rearrange tiles to fit the new workspace size. If that doesn't help, tap "Restart" to regenerate the tiles.

We'd love to hear from you! Send feature requests to contact@eslaforde.com and we'll consider them for future updates.
