User Reviews for Crossword Puzzles!
Love-Hate
Simple to use and reasonable with sporadic difficulty. Tends to use the same answers with varying clues suggesting a lack of originality by designer. Still it is fun. Most annoying thing is location of the advertising bar along screen bottom such that even the slightest touch while manipulating your iPad activates the annoying ad. And yesterday there was a particularly annoying bug which included ads in a language I do not read nor speak, that caused lock ups, and were adult only oriented. Happened to both mine and my wife’s. Had to remove the app.
I like the puzzle but it's frustrating!
I like these puzzles except for three things. 1. The background many times interferes with the puzzle blocks, and 2. When I choose a letter a lot of times I have to tap it hard 2 or 3 times before it goes in, and 3. Many times the letter I tap is not what shows up in the box, especially if I'm trying to backspace to erase. It will type a letter instead. This seems to happen mainly on the right top side of the puzzle. That is VERY annoying and time-wasting not to mention I have to go back and correct it. I don't think we should have to watch closely to be sure what we picked is what happened!
What the ....?
Whoever creates some of your puzzles, must never come out of the basement and talk with real people. Sometimes I have no idea what the clue is about and many times no idea what the answer is about. While I do not support AARP, their puzzles involve every day words. I’m a college graduate, which does not make me the ultimate authority, but, neither am I stupid. I’ve been doing crosswords for many, many years, and sometimes I just throw in the towel trying to figure out what your answers are! Your “trivia” leaves something to be desired. If I were to die, after attempting one of your crosswords, I might feel that I wasted the last 10-15 minutes of my life.
Great
This is just the right level of difficulty for me. I often have to look up words while solving and am learning new words from each puzzle, which I love. The only reason I'm giving 4 rather than 5 stars is that the navigation is frustrating - it often does not respond to taps, and it would be nicer to have the 'next' button at the bottom so you don't obscure the puzzle each time you click it. Also it would be nicer if 'next' skipped finished words. But overall, the best crossword app I've found so far, and I've tried a bunch.
Distracting ads
I have enjoyed this app. It’s hard enough to be challenging but still has lots of easy clues. However, very recently there are those horrible distracting ads that move back and forth to get your attention. I tried today to do the daily crossword but just had to stop because the ads were making me crazy. If you x one out a new one appears a few seconds later. Please Zelnut, don’t ruin your good app like this. Stationary ads are fine. You’ve got to make money somehow. But I won’t use it as long as the ads are moving and flashing. Too bad.
Update: screen layout
***UPDATED review: display issue fixed with latest update. Back to 5 stars and back to being a daily play! Thank you!*Went from 5 stars to 4. Last update 3d ago cropped my screen, covering up half of the the puzzle top line...the bottom area with ads is more prominent and makes the interface clumsier. Usually a big fan of this app, not so much at the moment (iOS platform)
A Process of Initiation
Each morning with rare exception, I enjoy that day’s crossword. Depending on difficulty and brain function, each puzzle accompanies a cup of joe as I solve it within a reasonable amount of time. My routine allows me up to fifteen minutes of free time, which is roughly equivalent to how long it takes before I observe the bottom of my coffee cup. I would be remiss if I neglected to comment on the therapeutic value of discovering each day’s solution. The puzzling process serves to awaken my mental acuity, which is important to the casework I endeavor to handle. Metaphorically, using a steel to sharpen a blade would be a comparative experience. Thank you.
Updated review. Good interface, good puzzles
New comments: Glad you fixed the display issue on iOS 11. But now I can’t see the numbers in the grid. They’re very pixelated and mostly not there. Prior review:I like the app. It's easy to use and the puzzles are fun. However: sometimes I tap on a square and nothing happens. I tap a few more times, harder, and it zooms in. That's super annoying. I wish this could be dealt with somehow because this is super fun to play.
SCW Puzzle NUT
This is the absolute BEST APP that I have! Period!It’s so easy to use, has many different/difficult Sunday crosswords to choose from ~ not just the NY or LA paper’s puzzles, and it’s worth buying the ad-free option if you weren’t lucky enough to have found this on App-Advice w/ads removed free... FYI ~ App-Advice is my second choice, just for everything it introduces me to and the free extras, if you care about that sort of stuff. 😉Thanks for all the hours (and years) of brain-teasers from a dedicated fan ~ master-work, kudos!
Ads
I love that this crossword app works in landscape mode on my iPad, as most are only portrait. So I was disappointed to discover there is no way to get rid of the ads constantly FLASHING at the bottom of the screen the WHOLE TIME I’m playing. It’s distracting and definitely not relaxing, which is the reason I downloaded the app... to relax. I’ve looked everywhere for the option to pay and go ad free... I can’t find it. As if this isn’t bad enough... I put down my iPad for 5 minutes, came back, opened the app and was assaulted by a full screen ad with no option to close it, which stayed on the screen for so long I gave up and deleted the app. Come on developers... I actually want to give you my money here I don’t just want a freebie! I’ll pay a reasonable amount either one-time or subscription for the right app. I’ve searched and... there isn’t one! There’s a gap in the iPad crossword puzzle app market, for a landscape app with no ads... why don’t you fill it.
