Wordle Solver for Green, Yellow, and Gray Tiles

Enter your guesses, mark the tile colors, and narrow the five-letter words that still fit your board.

Tile-color clues Five-letter words No answer reveal
Your board

Start with the rows you have played

Leave unused rows blank. The solver only reads the letters and colors you set.

Correct spot Wrong spot Not in word
Try:

Enter a guess, set the colors, then show the words that still fit.

Keep it simple

Add one or two real guesses, match the colors, then use the shortlist to decide whether to guess the answer or test fresh letters.

Add your guesses

Use the grid for the rows you have already played.

Match each color

Tap a tile until it matches what you see on your board.

Pick your next move

Compare the shortlist, then choose an answer guess or a word that tests new letters.

After the solver

Use the shortlist without overthinking it

Start with the count, then check the colors. A short list is for choosing an answer. A long list is a sign to gather one more clue.

  1. 1
    Read the count

    A few possible words means compare answers. A big list means play for information.

  2. 2
    Check the colors

    Make every green, yellow, and gray tile match your board before trusting the list.

  3. 3
    Watch repeated letters

    One gray copy can mean no extra copies, not zero copies.

Tile rules
Green: right spot

Keep that letter exactly where it is.

Yellow: wrong spot

Use the letter, but move it somewhere else.

Gray: usually out

Remove it unless another copy is green or yellow.

Next move

Long list

Filter for letters worth testing, or play a word that removes several candidates.

Repeated letters

If a word looks missing, recheck the row with the repeated letter.

Final guess

When only a few words remain, choose the one that feels most natural.

Wordle examples

Examples for tricky Wordle clues

Use these examples when a result looks surprising or a repeated letter makes the board harder to read.

Sample boards

Input What to check Why it matters
CRANE C gray, R yellow, A green Locks A in place, keeps R in the word, and removes C from normal candidates.
SLATE S green, A yellow, T gray Keeps S at the start, moves A away from slot 3, and avoids T.
SHEEP One E yellow, one E gray Treats the row as exactly one E, then bans E from the gray position.

Watch these edge cases

  • Gray duplicate letters cap the count when another copy of the same letter is marked green or yellow.
  • A blank tile state means WordyLab ignores that letter instead of treating it as wrong.
  • Different Wordle-style games may use different answer lists, so use the output as a shortlist.
  • If the shortlist looks impossible, reset one repeated-letter row and recheck the colors.

What the solver checks

The solver turns green tiles into fixed positions, yellow tiles into present-but-not-here rules, and gray tiles into exclusions. It filters five-letter candidates from WordyLab's word-game data, then sorts the remaining words with common, useful letters near the top. Different games and archives can use different answer lists, so confirm your final play in the game.

Wordle Solver FAQ

What is the best way to use a Wordle solver?

Use it after you have real color feedback from your board. Enter your guesses, match the tile colors, then compare the remaining words before choosing your next move.

How do I mark green, yellow, and gray tiles?

Type letters into the grid, then tap each tile to cycle through empty, green, yellow, and gray states.

Does this use the official Wordle answer list?

The solver uses WordyLab's word-game data to filter likely five-letter candidates. Use it to narrow your board, then confirm your final guess in the game.

How should I handle repeated letters?

Enter every repeated-letter row with its colors. If one E is green and another E is gray, WordyLab treats that as an exact-count clue instead of letting unlimited E words through.

Should I play the top result immediately?

Not always. If many words are still possible, a different guess may reveal more useful letters than an immediate answer attempt.
