About Killer Word
Killer Word is a deadly dictionary app which finds the word you need to win at word games like Letterpress.
Can't think of a word with a Q but no U? No problem - here are 75 of them. Need a word with K, V, M & H to finish the game? No problem - it knows 9 obscure words that match.
Just tell it the letters that are essential and it lists all the words that feature those letters anywhere. Then narrow the list down by also telling it the letters you don't want, i.e. if there is no E or A on the board, just subtract all those words out.
It lets you show the matching words by either standard alphabetical order or by length, which is very useful since the shorter words are more likely to be possible on the board.

Killer Word now uses exactly the same huge open-source word list as Letterpress, so it suggests all the legal words and no words that Letterpress won't accept.
Added some animation to make it more obvious that the number of matching words is changing live, as you type.

Speed speed speed. Word search is now so fast, it happens instantly, as you type. Launch time is quicker. The wordlist is now a table, not a block of text, which improves speed. Note: if you want to copy a word, just hold your finger on it for a second and the Copy menu will appear.

It's now a universal app, so iPad is supported natively.
Speed has been improved, particularly launch time.
The app now matches all letters in the search field, even repeated ones, so "QQ" for example finds all the words that contain at least two Q's, all 34 of them. This is very useful if the solution requires more than one of a character, and makes the app able to solve one-word anagrams (type all the letters and then sort by length).
