How the hints work

Each hint gives away a little more about today’s NYT Wordle: how many vowels it has, whether a letter repeats, the first and last letter and, most days, what the word means. Tap only the hints you need, and the answer only if you really want it. The page switches to the new puzzle at midnight in your own time zone.

Frequently asked questions

When does the new Wordle come out?

At midnight in your own time zone, and so do the new hints here. Players in different countries can be on different puzzles for a few hours.

Will a hint spoil the answer?

Not unless you open it. Every hint and the answer stay hidden until you tap them, so you can take one nudge and keep guessing.

Is this the official Wordle site?

No. Wortfinder is an independent fan site and is not affiliated with The New York Times. Wordle is a trademark of The New York Times Company. Meaning hints come from Wiktionary (CC BY-SA).
