Scrabble Aid is an app that will help you become a better Scrabble™ player. It will check to be sure a word is in its scrabble dictionary, and it will find the anagrams for available Board and Bar letters. it sorts its results by word score and length, although it does not account for double and triple squares.

This app has a very simple and intuitive interface. It even allows you to cancel its anagram search function, which can take a minute or two.

* Add the letters from your Bar and the playable letters from the Board into the two edit boxes in the middle section.
