Question 1

What is Magnetic Letters?

Accepted Answer

Magnetic Letters is a digital fridge poetry toy. Drag colorful word tiles around a virtual fridge door to arrange poems, phrases, or anything you like — just like the classic magnetic poetry kits.

Question 2

How do I use Magnetic Letters?

Accepted Answer

Just drag the colored word tiles to wherever you want them. Double-click (or double-tap on mobile) any tile to rotate it. No instructions needed — if you've ever played with fridge magnets, you already know how.

Question 3

Can I write my own words?

Accepted Answer

The current version includes 80 carefully chosen words spanning emotions, nature, actions, and poetry staples — enough to make thousands of different poems. We may add custom word input in a future version.

Question 4

Is this like Magnetic Poetry the brand?

Accepted Answer

Inspired by the classic Magnetic Poetry kit invented by Dave Kapell in 1993! The original kit was born from Kapell cutting up his refrigerator poetry into tiles. Our digital version lets you play the same word-arrangement game in your browser.

Question 5

Does Magnetic Letters work on mobile?

Accepted Answer

Yes — touch and drag works just like desktop. Double-tap a tile to rotate it. It works best on a larger screen where you have more room to spread words out.

Question 6

Why is freeform writing so relaxing?

Accepted Answer

Arranging words without grammatical pressure is a gentle creative exercise. Unlike writing a sentence, magnetic poetry invites intuitive, non-linear thinking — you follow what sounds or feels right rather than what's "correct." This lowers the inner critic and lets language become playful.
