Crossword Toolkit(圖1)-速報App

Crossword Toolkit provides all the tools you need to take on a crossword, even if you're without a pen!

Enter the grid (with smart grid-assist), take a picture of the clues, and the crossword is now saved digitally on your device. No need to carry around the paper or tear out the page.

Also included in Crossword Toolkit:

Manual Anagram - Solve an anagram yourself. The toolkit will jumble the letters and display them in a circle. Fill known letters in the hang-man spaces to better visualise the answer.

Dictionary - look-up from Merriam-Webster. Easily look up a word suggested by the anagram or word-fit tools by tapping it in the results - no typing necessary!

Anagram solver - all matched words returned instantly. You won't find a faster anagram algorithm!

Word-solver - lists all the words which fit your blanks, for those final tricky clues.

Wikipedia Cryptic Crossword Abbreviations - an in-app display of the Wikipedia page on regular cryptic crossword abbreviations, for those just getting to grips with cryptic crosswords.

This app is totally free, with no advertising :)

Instructions:

To access the Toolkit without saving a crossword, click Crossword Toolkit at the top. This provides access to the dictionary, anagram and word-fit tools, plus the Wikipedia page. Swipe between tabs to access the different tools.

Access recently used crosswords from the home page, or click the 'Saved Crosswords' card to access your saved library.

To save a new crossword, tap the 'New Crossword' card on the homepage. You'll be prompted for the publication's name and the date it's published. Several popular publications are offered in the pop-up list, but hit 'other' to enter a different one. You'll then be asked for the number of rows/columns in your crossword grid - scroll to the right number then click forward. You'll now be presented with a blank grid with the number of rows/columns previously selected. Tap the squares which should be black to make the grid. (The smart grid assist will automatically fill in the rotationally opposite square, to save you time and ensure your grid is valid.) Click the floating action button again to continue when you're happy, and congratulations, your grid is now saved! Swipe right to the next tab to take a picture of the clues. The rest of the Toolkit is easily accessed by swiping right again.

To use the dictionary, just enter the word you wish to look up and hit 'Search'.

To use the anagram solver, just enter all the letters of the anagram. The results will be returned instantly, if they exist.

To use the word-fit solver, enter the letters you know, with a '.' (full stop) for letters you're currently unsure of. The solver will search the dictionary for all words that fit. (Note: this takes a little time, particularly if the first letter is unknown.)

Tap any of the results to look up that word in the dictionary. Whilst the anagram and word-fit tools will work without internet access, you must be connected to the internet to use the dictionary!
