About Ringagram
Welcome to Ringagram, the free anagram ring solver designed specifically for cryptic crossword enthusiasts and word puzzle lovers.
The Story Behind Ringagram
As someone who fell in love with cryptic crosswords, I found myself solving them digitally more and more. But there was one persistent problem: anagrams.
Every guide on solving cryptic crosswords recommended the same technique: write the letters in a circle or arrange them in a ring. This circular arrangement helps your brain see patterns and potential word combinations that linear text makes difficult to spot.
💡 The Problem
Despite this being the go-to method recommended by crossword experts, there were no apps or websites that actually let you create an anagram ring digitally. Your only option was to grab pen and paper—not exactly convenient when you're solving crosswords on the go.
I wanted a solution I could use anywhere, anytime, without needing physical materials. So I built Ringagram.
What is an Anagram Ring?
An anagram ring (sometimes called an anagram circle) is a visualization technique where letters are arranged in a circular pattern rather than in a line. This circular arrangement has several advantages:
- Better pattern recognition: Your brain can see letter combinations from multiple starting points
- Non-linear thinking: Breaking away from left-to-right reading helps spot hidden words
- Visual shuffling: Rearranging letters in a circle makes different patterns emerge naturally
- Proven technique: Recommended by cryptic crossword experts and puzzle solvers worldwide
How Ringagram Works
Ringagram is beautifully simple:
- Type your letters - Enter the jumbled letters from your anagram clue
- See the ring - Watch as your letters arrange themselves in a perfect circle
- Shuffle & solve - Click the center button or press Space to shuffle and discover new patterns
The tool operates entirely in your browser—no data is sent to servers, no tracking, no sign-ups. Just pure, instant anagram solving.
🎯 Perfect For:
- Cryptic crossword solvers (Times, Guardian, Telegraph, Minute Cryptic)
- Anagram puzzle enthusiasts
- Word game players (Scrabble, Wordscapes, etc.)
- Students learning vocabulary and spelling
- Anyone who loves wordplay!
