It's maybe not the most aesthetic solution but here is one option. Another in https://github.com/larsgw/censordle/pull/13

Thanks! I haven't tested it on an iPhone, but I think this is a good solution that fixes #10.

Did you see if with this extra letter spacing for censored words there is more text rearranging across lines as words are guessed and 'uncovered'? I noticed that it happens already, depending on the actual contents.

I strongly suspect it leads to more layout shifting. I'm not sure what a good solution would be for that, you could attempt to size the obscuration to be exactly the expected width of the word (difficult) and would require using a different number of characters relative to the length of the word. you could solve that problem by something like "tap to see how many characters this word is" but I've only ever used js popup libraries rather than in plain js so, not sure if that's an ideal solution.
