hi,
Do you need to have a paid subscription to the New York Times to be able to 
play within the New York Times app?
Thank you. Keith

 Anna, are you playing from the app which is called solve wordle or are you 
playing the daily word on the new york times website?  I am able to play the 
daily word, but, the app I downloaded called solve wrdl, I just can't figure it 
out.  It is totally different from the single word that i am able to play from 
the new york times website.  Thanks for any help.

Hello Candy,

I have been playing Wordle and the Spelling Bee from within the NYTimes app, 
and yes, they are accessible. I haven’t tried playing them from the crossword 
app.

Best,
Anna

Please excuse me if I am misunderstanding this thread. I downloaded the New 
York Times Wordell and spelling bee app. I am on able to make it work at all. 
Am I correct? In understanding that this particular app is accessible? If so, 
could someone please tell me how to use it?
Anna, I understood that you were unable to use the Crossword app, but I am 
thinking that one is different. I’ve played Wordle every day, but that is only 
the one word that is with the New York Times. Is this app accessible? Thanks 
for any help.

Hi Wayne,

Yes, the keyboard is really oddly spaced. Too bad they didn’t use the one they 
use for Wordle. So whoever said the app was accessible, please tell us how you 
do it.

Cheers,
Anna

You made it further than me. While I could see the clue and after a time could 
enter the missing letters, I found the keyboard to be challenging at best. I 
was expecting a normally sized keyboard, but found that there were noticable 
gaps between each letter. This made using explore by touch to find the right 
letter to be quite taxing. I eventually figured out that if I found the right 
row, I could flick between the letters and double tap the one I wanted. I have 
since deleted the NY Times Crosswords app for these issues. I'm glad that 
others found the app to be accessible, but it wasn't for me.

Respectfully,

Wayne Merritt

Hi everyone,

I tried to play the mini crossword in the New York Time Crosswords app, but I 
couldn’t quite make it work. When it opens, the Across clues are listed in a 
very accessible way, saying how many letters the word has and whether any 
letters are filled in. If I touch one (not double-tap but just touch), the 
letters I enter go into that clue. If I double-tap anywhere, a screen 
displaying the grid opens, and if I touch a square, I’m told which square it is 
and whether it’s blank or what letter it contains. Doing a scrub gesture 
returns me to the list of Across clues. So far, so good.

However, I can’t find a way to hear the Down clues with the same information. 
If I touch an Across clue and flick down, there’s a Reverse Direction option, 
but whether I simply touch that option or double-tap it, the clues don’t switch 
to the Down clues. The clue at the bottom of the screen, which is the one being 
edited does change to a Down clue, but it doesn’t tell you how many letters are 
in the word or whether anything is filled in. If I choose the option to bring 
up the list of clues, the clues do say if a letter is filled in, but not how 
many letters total there are or where the filled-in letter is. So it seems to 
be maddeningly close to accessible, but not quite. Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Anna

I found it in the US App Store. One thing to note is the Crosswords app has a 
cost of $9.99 and includes several in-app purchases for more puzzles.

Hi. There used to be a crossword puzzle app in the app store called "FOUR 
Down," which had some free crossword puzzles, and then you could get some more 
for a small charge. I loved this app and worked all the puzzles. It was 
accccessible, and I worked the puzzles without a Braille display. I don't know 
if it's still available now, but this was an excellent app. Also, there is a 
crossword puzzle in the Blindfold Games set of apps, which includes about 40 or 
50 games of all types made especially for blind people.

I hope this helps.

Thanks.

I’ve recently read an article about the benefits of crossword puzzles, related 
to dementia, etc. and thought I would begin to look for some of these. Are 
there any that are blind friendly that you all know of that I could access on 
my phone?
