Off to a good start

Thank you for making this free and I hope your birthday was good. CryptoQuiz is a nice app for solving cryptogram puzzles. It is stable, easy to use, and works as advertised. I really like the ability to input my own puzzles -- in plain or encoded text. That's useful when solving the newspaper puzzles with family members... we can do it in parallel. Surprisingly this is a feature only CryptoQuiz offers. Ideas to make it better (and I'd pay for it if it had these features): - I'd like to select or deselect puzzle categories. For example, I don't want to solve lists of words; I'm more a quotation guy. Most of the categories therefore are in the way rather than enjoyable so I'd like to delete or deactivate them. - I'd like a view option where the puzzle is on one line and the solution letters are above or below. That's more natural to how I solve it with pencil and newspaper. - I'd like an option to turn off hints, i.e. it telling me when a letter is wrong. - Landscape (I use an iPhone) would be nice but not critical. Thank you for sharing your app.
My New FAV Game!!!

I love this game, instantly it became my new favorite game. It would be great it had achievement record and countdown timer. Thanks for making it free (:
Nice for pick up and play

Fun quick game I can just play on easy mode to pass a few minutes... although it's difficult to stop once I start <grin>. It has a nice user interface and plenty of good puzzles that can be very challenging on hard mode (if you like 'em that way).
Nice first start

Great app. There is a crash issue where I'm almost done with a puzzle, the app closes and a different puzzle with the same title pops up. I'm wishing for a way to download more. Thanks for sharing this. Happy Birthday.
Fun, but buggy

I enjoy this app, but it crashes when I win about half the time. Reopening the app takes me to the same puzzle, but not yet completed, so I already know the answer.
Upgrade crash issues

The game is both good and bad. There are to many category's. The auto random pic would be great it the game was only phrases. But there are too many lists. Words that have nothing to do with each other, other than they are in the same group. Things like ford, dodge, chevy, jeep. But on the good side once in the game the play is great.
