Today's Wordle Answer (October 26th #494)
The October 26th Wordle answer is FLOUT.
Players will have a better time solving today's Wordle answer by using the game's more challenging mode.

Players will be able to identify the confirmed positions of at least three to four letters by using the words' CLOUD,' 'SHOUT,' and 'CLOUT.' Using these words will also let Wordle players discover the correct positions of the two vowels in the center.
While these words will not outright solve the answer, players will have an easier time guessing today's Wordle answer FLOUT in their subsequent few attempts after discovering the correct position of four letters. However, players should be careful if they are left with only one or two attempts, as it is easy to use every attempt due to the number of possible answers.
