Does the solver know today's answer?

No. The solver only filters a dictionary of five-letter words against the clues you enter — it never sees or uses the official puzzle, so nothing here spoils today's game.

Do I have to set a colour on every tile?

Yes. Each of the five tiles needs a colour (grey, yellow or green) so the solver knows exactly what each guess told you. Tap a tile to cycle through the three colours.

Why aren't all the matching words shown?

To stay fast the solver shows the first batch of matches. Add another guess to narrow the list — the more clues you give, the shorter and more accurate it gets.

How the Wordle solver works

Type each word you have already guessed into a row, then tap every tile to set its colour — grey for a letter that is not in the answer, yellow for a letter that is in the word but in the wrong place, and green for a letter already sitting in the right spot. With every row you add, the solver filters its dictionary and shows only the words that still fit.

Why it handles repeated letters correctly

This is where most solvers slip up. If you guess a word with the same letter twice and one copy comes back yellow or green while the other is grey, the answer holds exactly that many of the letter — not “at least” that many. Guess EERIE, see the first E turn yellow and the rest grey, and every word with two E's is ruled out. Our solver applies that rule so the shortlist stays honest.

What the suggested word means

The word we highlight is the one that shares the most letters with the rest of the remaining pool, so it tends to split the possibilities fastest and get you to the answer in fewer guesses. It is a fast, practical heuristic rather than a perfect information-theory pick.
