Sorry for the confusion! The word you spin must be a valid word.

So if you had a row like AEBUG, you could tap B then G to spin BUG, and the row would end up as AEGUB. Or you could tap B then E to spin BE, and the row would end up as ABEUG.

(Because BUG and BE are both real words)

I'm agreeing with everyone who says this is terribly confusing.

It also is flawed in that if I wanted to spin, for example, BED, I could not - it would spin once BE was clicked.

Edit: I see in other places you explained how to do longer words. But that just proves the point. This needs a serious refactor of the UX.
