Can You Guess The Secret Word?
Jotto is a unique word game that tests your vocabulary skills as you try to figure out what the secret five letter word is. Simply guess your own five letter words and Jotto will tell you how many letters your guess has in common with the secret word. Rule out letters you know are not in the word by tapping them once to turn them red, or tap them twice to turn them green if you’re sure they are included.
Once you think you know the secret word, enter it and see if you’re correct!

Can you please provide directions on how to play the game against another remotely. When a hit the button it asks for a word but then ends. How do I identify who I’d like to play and invite them to play. Thanks
Excellent for solo play

Someday perhaps it will have a portal so we can play ‘live’ with others. But as a solo game it works quite well. Coming from 50 years of pencil and paper Jotto, it took me a few frustrating moments to get used to the red-green-yellow buttons. But now that I have got it down, I am very happy to be able to play Jotto whenever I feel like it. The lone developer is kind and very responsive to questions!
like mastermind, but 5 letter words

i have been looking for a 5-letter word mastermind game for a long time now. thank you for writing it. one thing that i wish you would improve: I bought the upgrade so that I wouldn’t always be guessing from the same list of 100 medium words. but tag problem is, many of the 10,000 words are super hard. Like today, I got LINDY. This is not a normal word.

I’ve typed in several 5 letter words but when I press go, it says I must use only 5!! Letter words. Since when did”tiger” and “takes” no longer use 5 letters? And where do you go to fix and/or correct?

What did you do to the yellow letter option for maybe? I was using that! All the time! Lowered my ranking. Hope you’ll bring the yellow back.
Great mind game

I play Jotto every night and have for years. I used to play ‘Mastermind’ as a kid and love this version with words. Hint: QUILT is a good word for modifying to guess letters.
“Yellow for Maybe” Feature Disappeared After Update

I’ve been enjoying this game but already had 3 wishes for improvements: - Wanted a different color to designate double-used letters in harder levels; - Wanted no double-used letters in the lowest level, which isn’t supposed to have any; and - Wanted more words to solve for. However, since the latest update, not only is there no special color for double letters, now we no longer have the yellow designation to indicate possible letters. This is a step backward, so I’m giving a lower rating than I would have before the update. [lYellow for maybe” was reinstated, so I added a star.] The update that was supposed to filter out double letters where they don’t belong did not work. I’ve come across 2 or 3 with double letters in the Easy section, and just now my word turned out to be “MOMMY.” Please remove words with double letters from the Easy list, consider adding an additional color, or some other indicator to designate a double-used letter.

This is a great game and app. Thank you for recently doubling the word list in recognition of the fact that its biggest downside has been a tiny stagnant word list that we got too used to. However, as a solution, doubling it is insufficient because we still get a predictable word half of the time. I would recommend taking the old words out (if you want to add some of them back in after a 5 year hiatus, that would be OK), and giving us a new list that is at least 5 times larger than the old one. Then plan on regularly adding to and swapping out the list at intervals over time. Don’t let it stagnate again. Good luck and thanks for listening!
Update issue

My scores list low includes my most recent game no matter how many guesses. Otherwise this is a great app. Once fixed I will give 5 stars.
