Hurdle hints and answers for November 5

Mashable - Tue, 11/05/2024 - 04:48

If you like playing daily word games like Wordle, then Hurdle is a great game to add to your routine.

There are five rounds to the game. The first round sees you trying to guess the word, with correct, misplaced, and incorrect letters shown in each guess. If you guess the correct answer, it'll take you to the next hurdle, providing the answer to the last hurdle as your first guess. This can give you several clues or none, depending on the words. For the final hurdle, every correct answer from previous hurdles is shown, with correct and misplaced letters clearly shown.

An important note is that the number of times a letter is highlighted from previous guesses does necessarily indicate the number of times that letter appears in the final hurdle.

If you find yourself stuck at any step of today's Hurdle, don't worry! We have you covered.

Tweet may have been deleted

Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.

Strands requires the player to perform a twist on the classic word search. Words can be made from linked letters — up, down, left, right, or diagonal, but words can also change direction, resulting in quirky shapes and patterns. Every single letter in the grid will be part of an answer. There's always a theme linking every solution, along with the "spangram," a special, word or phrase that sums up that day's theme, and spans the entire grid horizontally or vertically.

By providing an opaque hint and not providing the word list, Strands creates a brain-teasing game that takes a little longer to play than its other games, like Wordle and Connections.

Watch live updates of the 2024 U.S. election on your iPhone Lock Screen — here's how

Mashable - Tue, 11/05/2024 - 02:30

Election Day is finally upon us, with millions of Americans heading to the polls to decide who the next President of the United States will be. For many, today means dropping off your ballot, turning off your phone, and spending as long as you can in blissful ignorance of the results. For others, it's a day for staying glued to their device, fervently checking on every live update as the votes are counted.

SEE ALSO: How to take a mental health day after Election Day

While it's likely to be a turbulent time regardless of your approach, tracking the results of the 2024 U.S. presidential election will at least be a little easier for iPhone users. Apple News is offering real-time election updates on your Home and Lock Screens via its Live Activities feature, allowing users to stay informed without actively camping news websites. Whether this is a blessing or a curse really depends on your point of view.

Apple News' Live Activities feature for the 2024 U.S. election will prominently place a widget on your Lock Screen, showing the real-time electoral count as it's updated so you can keep up with the race without even unlocking your phone. It will also offer such updates on your Home Screen, with Apple Insider reporting that they'll be shown on a Dynamic Island. Apple Insider further reports that the Lock Screen widget will be interactive, taking you straight to the latest election coverage.

Here's how to get Apple News' Live Activities presidential election updates.

Total Time
  • 1 min
What You Need
  • iPhone 14 Pro or later running at least iOS 16.1
  • or iPad running at least iPadOS 17

Step 1: Open the Apple News app.

Step 2: You should see a prominent notification saying, "Follow the election live." Tap the big red "Follow Live" button at the bottom of your phone screen.

If the prompt doesn't appear, you can also activate U.S. election Live Activities by tapping on "Following" in the bottom right corner of the Apple News app, scrolling down to "Special Coverage," and tapping "Election 2024."

Step 3: You'll then be taken to a page with a banner that says "Follow the 2024 election live." Tap it, and you should be good to go.

You can't tap said banner quite yet, though. Apple News' Live Activities will only commence from Election Day, Nov. 5, with Apple Insider reporting that it will start late in the day.

This feature is also only available on devices that support Apple News' Live Activities. Specifically, you'll be able to U.S. election updates via Live Activities if you have either an iPhone 14 Pro or later running at least iOS 16.1, or an iPad that has iPadOS 17 at minimum. You'll only be able to get the Dynamic Island on your phone though, as we're still waiting for this feature to come to iPads. Finally, it's worth noting that Apple News itself is not available in all regions; for a full list of availability per country or region, go here.

The NYT's latest daily word game has become a social media hit.

Each puzzle features 16 words and each grouping of words is split into four categories. These sets could comprise of anything from book titles, software, country names, etc. Even though multiple words will seem like they fit together, there's only one correct answer.

If a player gets all four words in a set correct, those words are removed from the board. Guess wrong and it counts as a mistake—players get up to four mistakes until the game ends.

Players can also rearrange and shuffle the board to make spotting connections easier. Additionally, each group is color-coded with yellow being the easiest, followed by green, blue, and purple. Like Wordle, you can share the results with your friends on social media.
