Wordle, the word game that is conquering cellphones around the world, has a special way of sharing your scores. Taking advantage of the color codes of its rules, we can represent our game using emojis of colored squares. It’s a good way to do it, but one you only recognize if you know how to play it.
This is why Federico Viticci, responsible for MacStories, he created
Added accessibility to Wordle punctuations
Wordle allows you to share the results of your games in this way:
Wordle 208 3/6
⬛🟨🟨⬛⬛
🟩⬛⬛⬛🟨
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
This means that more than one does not know what you are sharing. To sample one of the game’s memes:

Viticci’s Shortcut a hole is made in the iOS sharing panel, so when you press the button on the Wordle website, you have direct access to it. As soon as you press it, you will receive a notification that the game results have been copied with additional text, which if we go back to the previous example would look like this:
Wordle 208 3/6
⬛🟨🟨⬛⬛ (2 partials)
🟩⬛⬛⬛🟨 (1 partial, 1 perfect)
🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 (Word done on line 3)
the shortcut works only with the original version of Wordle in English and add the text in that language. But the upside is that it’s easier to understand what you’re sharing, especially for people who need accessibility tools like VoiceOver to be able to read the results. You can download the shortcut from MacStories for free (the link to the shortcut is at the bottom of the article).
