Several times now when I am playing the game with the hot air balloons, I get cheated out of a win. My last word that is correct does not get credit disappears. I need to reenter another word and lose, with 2nd place. Feels like it is rigged.

Several times I have found the right answer only to have my streak count start over at 1 the next day. I started writing down the answers everyday including which try I was successful on and my streak count (starting 12/28/22). The answer I found on 1/19/23 was FLEET and it was indicated as correct on my 3rd try. But the correct answer was MUCKY. Were there two different puzzles available? These answers are extremely different!

For Jean MacMillan. A friend also had either completed wordle games or partially completed wordle games. I've been troubleshooting and it appears someone else is using his nytimes account. He may have left it logged in on a computer that one his his adult children use? Or his account has been hacked.

loaded free version on my android phone and android tablet. works great on the phone - but - extremely, extremely slow on the tablet. I've deleted the app and reinstalled it three times on the tablet, and I've rebooted the tablet three times hoping that would fix the glitch - nope! Still very, very, very slow to respond on the tablet. Tablet is a Samsung Tab E running Android version 7.1.1 with 1+ gig of Device memory available and 3 gig SD Card memory still available. Any suggestions?

First, two crashes, one on a 3,280+ streak when using the “try again“ feature. Said wait for ad to load and the screen froze and erased my streak. Because I was out of state, my streak is stuck on the leaderboard where it was when I left my home state. After getting home, it happened again, same exact circumstance. Contacted NYTimes and they said we can’t reset streaks. Period. Was seventh in the state. Now, starting over, leaderboard will not reset. Up to over 1000 wins (Would put me at 273rd in the state, thank you very much); does not show on the Leaderboard. What do I do? Can’t even get into the streak I had when leaving Home state to crash so I can start over. Will not let me change name on old streak, nothing. *@!! Any help, much appreciated. Thank you

E
