Planned
Hangman,
one letter at a time.
Pick a word for a friend to guess. Or guess theirs, one letter at a time. Or play our family-safe word lists on your own. It's the perfect game for a long call, a rainy afternoon, or the back seat of a car.
This is our plan for Hangman, one of six family games we added to the roadmap in September 2026. We haven't started it yet, and its place in the build order is still being decided.

Letters you can read from across the room
Large letter tiles, a clear keyboard, and the guesses you have left, right there.
Illustrations of the planned design. The finished app may look different.
How Hangman plays
One secret word. A limited number of wrong guesses. That's all it takes.
Choose
One player picks a secret word. Or the app picks one, from a family-safe list.
Guess
Guess one letter at a time. Right letters fill in. Wrong ones cost you a guess.
Solve
Fill in the whole word before your guesses run out.
A word game for everyone at the table
Pick a word for a friend
Play over FaceTime, in the same room, or one turn at a time over days.
Family-safe words
Our word lists are chosen for every age, with categories from animals to gardens.
A free hint every word
Stuck? Reveal a letter, or the category.
Big, clear letters
Large tiles, and a keyboard made for tapping, not squinting.
Your pace, always
No timers. Think as long as you like. This is supposed to be fun.
Works offline
Solo and same-room games work anywhere. Nothing ever leaves your device.
Hangman for everyone
Large letters, spoken guesses, and simple enough for any age.
VoiceOver throughout
Every letter is announced, and every move is spoken. Hangman works without looking.
Voice and Switch Control
Standard accessibility actions, including a list of the moves you can make.
Sizes that fit
Large letter tiles, with full Dynamic Type everywhere else.
High contrast
Used and open letters differ by shade and style. Never by color alone.
Reduce Motion
Letters fade in instead of flipping when Reduce Motion is on.
Guesses announced
Hear each letter, where it appears, and how many guesses are left.
Free to play. Pro if you'd like more.
Pro is one optional purchase, for word lovers who want more. There's nothing to renew and nothing to remove.

Good to know
When will Hangman be released?
Not yet. Hangman is on the roadmap, and we haven't started it. We don't announce dates we can't keep. This page will have a download link the day it's ready.
Will it cost anything?
Only if you want Pro. Hangman will be free to download and the whole game free to play. Pro will be an optional one-time purchase. There will never be ads or a subscription.
Can I play with friends?
Yes. It's what Hangman is made for. Invite people you know over FaceTime or Messages with SharePlay, or through Game Center, live or taking turns over days. It's always free, with no accounts and no servers of ours. There's no matchmaking with strangers.
Are the words suitable for children?
Yes. Our word lists are chosen to be family-safe. And when a friend picks the word, it stays just between the two of you.
Do I need an internet connection or an account?
No, and no. Playing alone works offline, with no account and no sign-in. Your games and stats stay on your device.
Will it come to Android?
That's the plan. After the iPhone and iPad apps, we intend to bring the whole collection to Android.
Data Not Collected
That's the App Store privacy label on every app we make, Hangman included. No accounts. No analytics. No advertising. Nothing you do in the app leaves your device.
Something to play now.
Hangman comes after the games already in progress, and its place in line is still being decided. There's no mailing list, because we don't collect email addresses. Check back here.
