The Wordipus is obsessed with unscrambling letters and finding words inside. He can help even the odds for yourself or a friend in any words-from-letters type game, and help you and your opponent learn more while playing word games.

Type in the set of tiles you have, as well as a letter from the board if you like, and instantly see a list of all the words found inside, with scores, or a set of random re-arrangements of your tiles.

Five pre-set configuration profiles allow you to easily set up enhanced word games by just naming the profile level you both will use to play.

With his expanded 12 tile search parameters, wordipus can also help you outside of word games to find new words and inspire new ideas based on what youre already thinking about.

Pros and cons of Wordipus app for iPhone and iPad

Wordipus app good for

I found this application to work well, and easily expose letter combinations in an intuitive way. It took me a little while to realize that the Wordipus settings page was actually on the iPhones settings page (perhaps this could be made more apparent from within the Wordidpus app itself?). But after I found that, it was smooth sailing. I like how you can configure the settings to limit what you see, which makes it more relevant to what its being used for (Scrabble in my case). Anyways, awesome app!
Very cool app. I have a dyslexic friend who normally hates to play Scrabble, but came frighteningly close to crushing me with Wordipus. I like how it makes the game about strategy and planning ahead rather than vocabulary and spelling (though over time it teaches those too). Its also a handy official dictionary. My only gripe is that after entering 8 letters, you cant go back and change the last one. Great app, worth the price for any wordgame enthusiast.
This is a great app for words and word games. Rearrangement is an innovative way to rethink words or letters. i find this app well worth two bucks if you like words or spend your nights pwning noobz at online scrabble, text twist, or whatever.
the latest update totally changed things for this app. Its really fast now. And looks like its much smarter. Extra letters was a big one too. Pretty much everything you could use and more. Great job.
Are you tired of UNEVEN/UNFAIR COMPETITION in word games like Words with Friends??? Then you need this app! Wordipus is not a "cheater" app, rather it lets you set a handicap to even the playing field -- how cool!!! With 5 levels of "help," even the most weaksauce opponent can keep up, OR you can get a little help to balance the tide against those expert opponents. When you both have Wordipus, you agree on the level each of you will use, and you now have a perfect way of making the game fair for both users WITHOUT CHEATING! I love this app as much as I love Words with Friends... and thats a lot of love!
The threading is sooo nice. Im not seeing any problems, works well for me.

Some bad moments

Doesnt include all words from scrabble dictionary. Wont retain letters from previous visit. Not enough options for must have letters and letter order.
Finally deleted this off my iPhone because it constantly crashed. It was only really useable in levels 1 and 2.
