About Daily Word
Daily Word is a free Wordle-style puzzle game that resets every midnight. Each day brings a new hidden five-letter word, and you have six attempts to guess it. After each guess, colour-coded tiles reveal how close you are — green means the right letter in the right position, yellow means the letter appears elsewhere in the word, and grey means the letter is not in today's word at all. Millions of people play a daily word puzzle every morning as part of their routine. Daily Word on Flario works the same way, with no account needed and your streak saved automatically in your browser.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often does the Daily Word reset?
The Daily Word puzzle resets every day at midnight in your local time zone. You get exactly one puzzle per day, and your result is saved automatically so you can come back and see your history.
What happens if I fail to guess the word?
If you use all six guesses without finding the word, the answer is revealed and your streak resets to zero. Your best score and previous results are still saved. Come back tomorrow for a fresh start.
Is Daily Word the same as Wordle?
Daily Word is inspired by Wordle and follows the same rules — five letters, six guesses, colour-coded clues. The word list and puzzle schedule are independent from the New York Times version.
Can I play yesterday's puzzle?
Each day has exactly one puzzle. Yesterday's puzzle is no longer available, but Wordle Unlimited on Flario lets you play as many five-letter word puzzles as you want with no daily restriction.
Does my streak save if I close the browser?
Yes. Your streak and all game progress are saved automatically in your browser's local storage. As long as you return on the same device and browser, your streak continues.
What are good starting words for Daily Word?
Words that cover common letters work best. CRANE, SLATE, ARISE, and STERN are popular starting words because they include frequently used letters like R, S, T, L, and E.
