How to use the word unscrambler

Unscrambling letters by hand is slow, and it is easy to miss the long, valuable words hiding inside a rack. This tool does the heavy lifting in a fraction of a second:

  1. Enter your letters. Type the jumbled letters into the box — order does not matter, and you can mix them up however you like.
  2. Press Unscramble. The tool compares your letters against the full dictionary and finds every word you can build.
  3. Scan the results. Words are grouped by length with the longest at the top, so the biggest scoring plays are the first thing you see. Each word shows its Scrabble value on the right.
  4. Narrow it down. Use the filters to require a starting letter, an ending, a letter the word must contain, or an exact length — handy when you already have part of the answer.

Tips for finding more (and better) words

Unscramble vs anagram: what is the difference?

An anagram uses every one of your letters exactly once — LISTEN and SILENT are anagrams of each other. Unscrambling is broader: it finds anagrams and every shorter word your letters can make. Tick "Use all my letters" above to switch into pure anagram mode, or leave it off to see the full set. If anagrams are all you are after, our dedicated Anagram Solver is tuned for exactly that.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the word unscrambler work?

Type in the letters you have and the tool checks them against a dictionary of over 168,000 words. It returns every valid word those letters can spell — including shorter words that use only some of your letters — then groups the results by length so the longest, highest-value words are easy to spot.

Can I unscramble letters with a blank or wildcard?

This tool is built for the exact letters you hold. If you are playing Scrabble or Words With Friends and have a blank tile, use our Scrabble Word Finder or Words With Friends finder instead — both let you add a "?" as a wildcard that matches any letter.

Is there a limit to how many letters I can enter?

You can unscramble up to 15 letters at once, which covers every rack in Scrabble and Words With Friends and almost any anagram puzzle. The more letters you add, the more combinations there are, so very long inputs simply return more words.

Does it only find full-length words?

No. By default it finds words of every length your letters allow, from two-letter words up to the full set. If you only want words that use all of your letters, tick the "Use all my letters" box to switch to anagram mode.

Are the Scrabble points accurate?

Yes. Each word is scored with the standard English Scrabble tile values (the face value of every letter added together). The score does not include board bonuses like double-word or triple-letter squares, since those depend on where you place the word.

Is the word unscrambler free?

Completely free, with no account, no download and no limit on how many times you can use it. It runs right here in your browser on phone, tablet or computer.
