About the Words With Friends

The Words With Friends Helper finds the best moves hiding in your tiles and ranks them by points, so you always know your strongest play. Type in your letters and it searches a large English word list, returning every valid word scored with the Words With Friends letter values โ€” which differ from Scrabble โ€” so the numbers you see match the game you are actually playing.

It is built for real games. Blank tiles are supported with the ? wildcard, and filters for starting letters, ending letters, contained sequences and minimum length help you find a word that connects to the board. Instead of scrolling endless lists, you get a focused set of playable words ranked highest-first.

The helper is completely free, works instantly in your browser on any device, and needs no sign-up. Whether you are chasing a comeback or defending a lead, it is the quickest way to find your best move.

How to use the Words With Friends Helper

  1. 1

    Enter your tiles

    Type the letters you have โ€” up to fifteen. Order does not matter, so enter them exactly as they appear in your tray.

  2. 2

    Add blanks

    Use a question mark (?) for each blank tile. Each stands in for any letter, and the helper shows every word it can complete.

  3. 3

    Filter to the board

    Set a starting or ending letter, a contained sequence, or a minimum length to find a word that connects to tiles already played.

  4. 4

    Make your move

    Moves are ranked by Words With Friends points and grouped by length. Tap any word to copy it.

How Words With Friends scoring differs from Scrabble

Words With Friends uses its own set of letter values, so the same word can score differently than it would in Scrabble. For example, in WWF the letters H and Y are worth less than in Scrabble, while some other tiles shift the other way. This helper uses the correct Words With Friends values, so the ranking reflects the points you will actually earn.

As in any tile game, the board's bonus squares โ€” double and triple letter and word tiles โ€” can change which move scores best. Treat the ranked list as your shortlist, then choose the word that lands on the most valuable squares.

Connecting to the board and using bonus tiles

The strongest moves usually build on letters already in play. Use the starts-with and ends-with filters to extend an existing tile, or the contains filter to play through a letter mid-word. Together with your tray, these filters reveal exactly the words that fit the open spaces.

Placing a whole tray of tiles in one turn earns a thirty-five-point bonus in Words With Friends. Set the minimum length to seven to spot those big plays whenever your tiles allow.

Learning from the helper

Beyond winning a single game, the helper is a great teacher. Seeing the words your tiles can form builds your vocabulary of valid plays, short words and unusual letter combinations, so you gradually rely on it less. Many players use it to review tricky racks and discover words they would never have spotted.

In friendly games, agree with your opponents on whether tools are welcome. Used as a study aid between matches, it makes you a stronger, faster player.
