FAQ and Support

A short collection of answers to common questions.

How do I change the daily reminder time?

Open Settings, tap Daily reminder, then tap the time row to pick a new time. The reminder follows your phone's local timezone and adjusts automatically across daylight saving changes. If you turn the reminder off and back on, your chosen time is remembered.

Why was my word not accepted?

Every accepted answer is a real British-English word that uses all five letters exactly once. The collection is curated, so some valid-looking words are left out on purpose: proper nouns, abbreviations, and very obscure, archaic, or specialist terms. A word you tried may simply not be one this puzzle lists. When the round ends, the full list of accepted answers appears, so you can see the ones you missed.

How are puzzles chosen, and what is the collection?

A new puzzle is offered each day, chosen on your device from the ones you have not yet played. You can play up to your daily limit, which you set in Settings as One, Three, or Many, after which the day closes until tomorrow. A puzzle leaves the collection once you finish or reveal it, so puzzles do not repeat. When you have played them all, you have completed the collection.

Does the app need an internet connection?

No. Every puzzle, every screen, and every other asset ships inside the app. HowManyAnagrams works in airplane mode and never makes a network request during normal use.

Does the app collect any data about me?

No. There are no analytics, no third-party trackers, no remote API calls, and no account system. Your settings, results, and progress live only on your device, and there is no copy elsewhere to restore if you delete the app. The Privacy Notice covers this in full.
