Today's Hints
Want a nudge without spoilers? Reveal a hint or two, it might be just enough to get you unstuck.
Reveal the Answer
Ready to see it? The answer sits behind the tiles below so it stays hidden until you act. Tap a single tile to check one letter at a time, which is handy when you are one guess away and only need to confirm a hunch. Or tap Show answer to reveal the full word.
If you would rather work it out yourself from the letters you already have, our Wordle Solver filters the word list by the greens and yellows on your board. For yesterday's word and the full history, see our Wordle past answers list.
How the Wordle Hint Tool Works
The tool is built around one idea: you decide how much help you get. Nothing above the reveal shows the answer, so you can open the page safely even if you have not played yet.
Work down the hint stack one step at a time. The first hint is deliberately gentle, telling you how many vowels the word has and whether it is a common one. From there the hints shift from the shape of the word to its meaning: whether a letter repeats, the part of speech, a real crossword clue that setters have used for the same answer when we have one on file, then a short definition. The first and last letters sit at the end, for when a nudge is no longer enough. Tap a hint only when you are ready for it. Most players solve the puzzle after two or three.
When you want the answer, the five tiles let you reveal it letter by letter, or you can tap Show answer to see the whole word at once. A difficulty rating at the top gives you a quick read on how tough today's word is before you start. Everything you see updates automatically each day, so this page always shows the current puzzle.
How to Read These Hints Without Spoiling It
The hints are ordered so the gentlest come first. Taking them in order is the difference between a nudge and a spoiler.
The first two hints (vowels and repeated letters) narrow the field without giving much away, and they pair well with a strong opening guess. The middle hints describe what the word means rather than how it is spelled: the part of speech, a crossword clue written for the same answer if one exists for it, then a short definition. Any of those can be enough to crack it once you have used a guess or two. The first and last letters come last on purpose, because they are the most concrete help on the page — treat them as your final lifeline rather than a starting point. If you only want a small edge, stop after the first hint and go back to your board.
Wordle Strategy: Solving in Fewer Guesses
A good opening guess does most of the work. The strongest starters pack common letters into one word so a single guess tests several high-frequency letters at once. Words like SLATE, CRANE, and TRACE are popular for exactly this reason: they front-load common consonants and vowels, so even a poor result eliminates a lot of the board. We ranked the best starting words for Wordle using solve-rate data if you want the full list.
Two habits help after the opening. First, spend your second guess on new letters rather than reshuffling the ones you have already tested, since coverage matters more than commitment early on. Second, watch for repeated letters late in the puzzle, which is where words like MAMMA or FLUFF trip people up. If you like knowing what you are up against, we broke down the hardest Wordle answers so far and why they caught people out. When you are stuck with two letters locked in and a jumble of yellows, our Wordle Solver lists every valid word that fits the pattern, which turns a guessing game back into a short list.
What Is Wordle?
Wordle is a daily word game where you have six tries to guess a five-letter word, with tiles turning green for a correct letter in the right spot and yellow for a correct letter in the wrong spot. There is one puzzle a day and everyone plays the same word, which is what makes sharing your grid so addictive.
The game was created by Josh Wardle, a software engineer who originally built it for his partner Palak Shah as a private pastime before releasing it publicly in late 2021. It went viral within weeks, and The New York Times bought it in early 2022 for a price reported in the low seven figures. Wordle now lives on the NYT Games platform alongside Connections and the Spelling Bee.
Because there is a single shared answer each day, "help me" searches spike every morning, which is exactly the moment this tool is built for. If you enjoy the format, the same logic that solves Wordle also powers our other word tools.
Frequently Asked Questions
A Wordle hint is a clue that narrows down the day's five-letter answer without simply telling you the word. Good hints come in layers, from a soft clue about vowels or letter patterns up to the first letter or a definition, so you can take only as much help as you need. This page gives you up to seven hints: a soft opening clue about vowels, hints about the word's meaning — including a real crossword clue for the same answer whenever our clue archive has one — and the first and last letters at the end.
Open the hint stack at the top of the page and tap the hints one at a time, starting with the first. The answer is hidden separately behind the reveal tiles, so reading the hints never shows you the word. Stop whenever you have enough to solve it yourself.
Today's answer is on this page, hidden behind the reveal tiles so it does not spoil you by accident. Tap a tile to check one letter, or tap Show answer to see the full word. The answer updates automatically every day.
Wordle refreshes once a day at midnight in your local time, so a new puzzle and a new answer appear each morning. This page is anchored to US Eastern time and updates automatically, so if you are checking very early or in a different timezone you may briefly see the previous day's word.
Our Wordle past answers list has yesterday's word and the full history of previous solutions, updated daily. It is the place to go if you missed a day or want to check a word you half-remember.
Yes. Our Wordle Solver takes the green and yellow letters from your board and lists every valid word that still fits, so you can finish the puzzle on your own without seeing the answer outright. It is the better option when you want a challenge rather than a spoiler.
Strong starters use common letters so one guess tests several likely candidates at once. SLATE, CRANE, and TRACE are among the most effective because they combine frequent consonants with common vowels. The goal of a first guess is coverage, so pick a word that eliminates as much of the board as possible even when it does not score a single green. For the full ranking, see our data-backed list of the best starting words for Wordle.
Some answers are tough because they use rare letters, repeat a letter, or share a pattern with several near-identical words, which is exactly what the difficulty rating at the top of the page flags. We looked at the hardest Wordle answers so far to see which words defeated the most players and why.
No. Wordle is owned and published by The New York Times. This is an independent hint and answer helper for players who want a clue or a nudge; it is not affiliated with the NYT. To play the actual game, go to the New York Times Games site.

Yes. The hint buttons and reveal tiles are built for touch and work the same on phones, tablets, and desktop. The most-used parts, the hints and the answer reveal, sit near the top on mobile so you do not have to scroll far to get help.
