Spellcheck after a finished round: Level One: Easy with five green ticks, a Go to next round button, a typing box and an on-screen keyboard

Spellcheck is a daily spelling bee for one. Press play to hear a word with some information about it, type how you think it is spelled, and submit. Three rounds of five words go from easy to hard, and a new set arrives every day at midnight Eastern Time.

About Spellcheck

Spellcheck is a daily spelling game made by Answer in Progress, the YouTube channel whose creator built it after setting out to learn how spelling bees work. Each round is a row of words, shown as play buttons. Press one and the game reads the word aloud with some information about it, looping the audio so you can start typing at any time.

You can take the words in any order, using the on-screen keyboard or your own, and each correct word turns into a green tick. A round allows only one submission, so check your spelling before pressing submit. There are three rounds a day, Level One: Easy, Level Two: Medium and Level Three: Hard, five words each. After the hard round a results page shows a row of green and red squares per round that you can copy and share.

New words come out every day at midnight Eastern Time, the same for everyone. The game is free, works on phones and had no ads when it launched in early 2024. Besides the daily there is a practice mode: pick easy, medium or hard and spell as many words as you can before running out of lives. The home page now also points to a version 2.0 made with TED Games at ted.com, while the original keeps serving its own daily.

How to play Spellcheck

Open spellcheck.xyz, press get started and choose the daily challenge.
Press a play button to hear a word and some information about it.
Type the word as you think it is spelled; the audio keeps looping while you type.
Do the five words in any order, then submit the round once.
Go on to the medium and hard rounds, then copy your results grid to share it.

Tips

Listen for the extra information: a definition or origin can settle a tricky spelling.
Type slowly and check double letters before you submit, since each round has one submission.
Think of related words: the root often shows the spelling of an unstressed vowel.
Use headphones; the computer voice can be hard to follow on some words.
