Reviews
Can’t access other games
MT Torres
After paying the yearly fee I am still unable to access the other games, like Sudoku. Also, you STILL have to buy any “packs” that you want. To the developers: Isn’t one payment good enough for you?
What’s the point?
PeggyRo
I find this app baffling. To access most content with my paid subscription, I still have to go to the website.
Issues with Spelling Bee
PollyQ
The crossword part of the app works just fine, but the Spelling Bee has the problem that it rejects words that turn up on the next day’s list of answers. Very frustrating.
Endless challenging fun
Cork L4d
Love the app for the endless fun with the crosswords and spelling bee. Always great to dip into whether I have 5 minutes or an hour.
Good Stuff
Johnisburn
Only way to improve this would be if someone could print it and deliver it to me each morning.
Lots of reused clues and answers
Dump$terKitten
The app is nice, but the crosswords reuse a lot of the same clues and answers each week. Seems like they use an algorithm to at least initially create the puzzles even if they edit or review them prior to releasing.
Fantastic app. Could use a search function.
Jj12176111
Great app! I really love playing the crosswords here, both by subscription and some of the packs I’ve purchased! I also enjoy the option for dark mode. One suggestion: it would be great to be able to search the available packs. For example, I can’t seem to find “Will Shortz Favorites 2” despite having the first and third packs in my library. If we could search for packs, that would make the app 5/5 stars for me.
Rip off
Michael R. Jones
I paid $40 bucks for a year of this app but can’t do any of the things they promised, no archives, no previous day’s puzzles, nothing.
