An anagram solver rearranges the letters you enter and checks them against an English word list. It finds exact anagrams that use every letter, plus shorter words you can build from the same rack. Results update instantly, respect repeated letters, and can use question marks for unknown tiles. This solver checks a curated list of more than 1,500 familiar English words locally in your browser. Choose **exact anagrams** for a classic rearrangement, or include shorter words for jumbles and letter-tile games. Filters can set a minimum length or require a starting sequence without sending your letters anywhere. ## How to use it 1. **Enter your letters** - Type a word, scrambled rack or short phrase. Add up to two question marks for unknown letters. 2. **Choose the match type** - Show exact anagrams only, or include shorter words that can be built from part of the rack. 3. **Narrow the list** - Set a minimum word length or enter the letters that each result must start with. 4. **Copy a result** - Select one word to copy it, or use Copy all to copy the complete visible list. ## Who it's for - **Crossword and jumble solvers** test scrambled clue letters and narrow the answer by its first letter. - **Word-game players** find the longest playable words hidden in a rack, including up to two blank tiles. - **Teachers and students** explore letter patterns, spelling and vocabulary with a visible exact-match distinction. - **Writers and naming teams** inspect alternate arrangements of short words and phrases without uploading drafts. ## Expert note A correct solver compares letter frequencies, not just alphabetized unique letters. If your rack has one E, a result that needs two Es is rejected unless a wildcard supplies the missing copy. ## Frequently asked questions ### Are my letters uploaded when I use the anagram solver? No. The dictionary and matching logic run locally in your browser. Your letter rack, wildcard choices and filters are not sent to a solving service, and you can clear them at any time. ### Is this anagram solver free? Yes. You can run as many searches as you need without an account, payment or download. Exact and shorter-word modes, wildcards, length filtering and copying are all available for free. ### How many letters can I enter? You can enter up to 15 letters in one search, including as many as two question-mark wildcards. Spaces, hyphens and apostrophes do not count toward the rack because the solver ignores them while matching. ### What is the difference between an exact anagram and a shorter word? An exact anagram uses every supplied letter the same number of times, so it has the same letter count as the rack. A shorter word uses only a subset of those letters. Switch to exact-only mode when every tile must be used. ### Can I use blank tiles or unknown letters? Yes. Enter a question mark for each unknown letter, up to two. A wildcard can replace one missing letter in a candidate word, but it does not let a result exceed the total rack length. ### Why is a valid word missing? The solver uses a curated English word list focused on familiar words rather than every inflection, proper name, abbreviation or specialist term. A valid but rare word may not be included, and the English-only dictionary will not cover other languages. ### Does the solver respect duplicate letters? Yes. Matching counts every copy of each letter. For example, a word needing two Ls only appears when the rack contains two Ls or has enough wildcards to supply the missing letter. ## Related tools - [Palindrome Checker](https://candoya.com/tools/palindrome-checker/) - [Word Frequency Counter](https://candoya.com/tools/word-frequency-counter/) - [Word Counter](https://candoya.com/tools/word-counter/) - [Anagram Game](https://candoya.com/tools/anagram-game/) - [Case Converter](https://candoya.com/tools/case-converter/) --- *Markdown edition of , published for AI agents and other automated readers.
