Comments on Upwords for Android

★★★★☆ Katherine Benge · Jun 21, 2026

I am so glad you developed Upwards as I've always liked the challenge of this game. Sometimes it won't accept real words that I know, but I still beat the computer most of the time. I do hate that commercials freeze this game for at least 10 to 30 min. It won't let me back in the game I'm playing, so I just turn game off til next day. Kat

Love it. My brother and I play the board game all the time. We grew up playing Scrabble.

★★★★★ Denise Quarmby · Aug 25, 2025

I've been playing this game against my husband for a few years. It is very true to the board game. It accepts many strange words but if you have the dictionary you can look it up. I paid for the premium version and then changed my phone and lost the features, perhaps after changing my username. It took a while but eventually got the features back. THANKS!

★★★★★ Marylyn Hofmann · Apr 30, 2026

Good game, just like the board game. Adverts are too long though.

★☆☆☆☆ Lou Hart · Dec 16, 2025

Now the ads have vanished but the dictionary is not a tournament one - some old Merriam-Webster list which contains words used by the AI which, it admits, don't exist. The dictionary described in the FAQs is not the one used and there are constant messages that the game is not found on the server.

★☆☆☆☆ Ricki McKernan · Jun 3, 2025

The adds are so loud and irritating that they give you a fright. So much so that if it's not fixed I won't play anymore.

★☆☆☆☆ Jj Qwerty · Jan 7, 2026

Airns is NOT a word besides an english dialect of "earn". Last I checked, what is basically slang, or even could be called a slurring of a word, should be used in games. Heck, I can't even use moundy, or a myriad of other completely reasonable words, but eve can use airns? AI slop in word games shouldn't exist.

★★☆☆☆ Dake Kai · May 4, 2026

The UI is awful. And you will have a quite few ads before even completing ine round of play. And the bots know way too many words the average person has never seen or heard. Love Upwards IRL, but this leaves a lot to be desired imo.
