Users can also track their statistics to find out how they are evolving as they continue to play Scrabble. Along with that users can also post their scores and achievements on Facebook to share with others.
As part of the launch, users will also get a unique Scrabble-themed animated wallpaper as well. Users can simply install the application and choose the wallpaper form the options to show their love for the game.
