Word Search Solver FAQ

How does the word search solver work?

The solver compares every requested word with every starting cell in eight directions: left, right, up, down, and the four diagonals. It highlights every exact match and reports its coordinates.

Can the solver find backwards and diagonal words?

Yes. It finds horizontal, vertical, and diagonal words in both forward and reverse directions.

How should I format the letter grid?

Put each row on a new line. You may type letters together or separate them with spaces, but every row must contain the same number of letters.

Does the word search solver upload my puzzle?

No. The puzzle is solved locally in your browser and is not sent to an external puzzle-solving service.

Can a word appear more than once?

Yes. The results list every matching location, including overlapping copies of the same word.
