User Reviews for Solitaire by MobilityWare

Not a fan of the recent changes 8/18

Bought the app and have enjoyed it for years. It’s a simple game you can play for fun, stress relief, etc. No biggie. However, the recent overhaul now forces you to look at their logo (an ad for them) while everything loads (allegedly) for a surprising length of time. Every single time you open the app (even if you haven’t closed the app and just switched apps for a second. Ugh! This was not the case before. Their customer service folks are nice... but their response was not satisfying. There is no need to have to wait that long... and no, your solitaire/company trivia is not fun. Please... just let people play the game! I may just delete the game and move onto another company. :-(Update: 12/18 — more changes in update that are a distraction from the game. Forced to pick king or queen-type personality, forced to sit through more stupid screens about some new points program. I want to pick up my phone and distract myself with a game of solitaire... not be bombarded with carnival graphics that you can’t shut off. These updates are so frustrating. I hope they are making buckets of money, because I see no point in the nonsense.

My Favorite

UPDATE - This USE to be my favorite until this last update!! I agree 100% with the others who are saying this latest update ruined it. I hate it! The new lay out is terrible and my running high score (vegas accumulative) is gone from view, I have to purposefully look it up every time instead of it being in constant view. The new graphics & UI are obnoxiously inconvenient and were much better the way they were. If I can’t change it back to how it was before the update, I will be looking for a new favorite. Love this game. Played a lot of others that don't have the features this one does. Smooth graphics with a lot of options - you can change the background and card backs with their numerous selections or your own pictures - a feature I love. You can turn animations up or down, play different versions ( I like Vegas scoring), and select different card faces such as regular to easy to see. Too many options to list - in short - you can't go wrong with this one! I've had it for years and it just keeps getting better. Thanks for the great app!! A+++++ 👍

THE BEST SOLITAIRE GAME!!

I am an avid Solitaire player, and thoroughly enjoy this particular Solitaire version. I tend to only order/play games or other modicums (The Weather Channel, etc.) in versions that allow complete freedom from advertisements. This version of Solitaire allows that option, which is one reason I so highly value this game. Another is the freedom to select card types (backs, fronts, formats, backgrounds, etc.) immediately, and as often as one wishes. The option to download content from one’s saved photos, etc., is another reason I love this app. I use a photo of my young grandson, clutching his Sloth Christmas Gift Pillow, as the back of my Solitaire cards. The app’s ability to store information is another great feature, as is the Daily Challenge, whereby your accumulated solved puzzles are updated to show your current level, as well as your earned trophies (Bronze for 10 completed wins; Silver for 20 wins, and Gold for completed months). All in all, my satisfaction with this Solitaire Game is the highest

Want to get to the game!

Overall, the latest update is good, but with the mobility ware, page, then the solitaire facts/ads for other games/game info page, it takes time to get to the game. I play this game numerous times daily, and going through these pages every time I go to the app is getting annoying! I’ve already seen all the the second pages numerous times. If these must be there, at least add a way to click through or skip them. Even if I want to read them, I am a fast reader and still end up waiting.I would also like other options for card faces. The current ones are basically the same except larger font. Would even like to see a complete card face.Took a deeper look and compared with the free/last version. In the update there are fewer card face styles - not including the one I had been using, and no choice for card spots. I prefer no outline. I do appreciate the no more moves flash on the play button, but that’s about the only thing I see as an “improvement”.

Great Game but with a problem for me

I have been using Mobilityware Solitaire for several years. Until recently, I have been very happy with it. However, from time to time bugs have shown up. In the past these were quickly repaired.Very recently I noticed that the setting I used for winnable deals is not functioning. I kept it at 40% since the beginning. That level kept my cumulative score moving slowly but surely upward. Now, as an experiment, I set it at 100% because I clearly see the 40% is not functional. The 100% is not functioning. Winning games are still rare.The response from Mobilityware was a disappointment. They took away the winning game slider control from Vegas cumulative scoring because they felt users were abusing it to get quickly rising scores. Huh? Why would the personal choices of app users be a concern? If someone gets some pleasure out of quickly rising scores, why would that bother anyone?. The purpose these games is for users to enjoy.I liked a slowly rising score and had found the right winnable percentage to do that for me. I have saved my cumulative score and switched to standard with 100% wins, which means I treat every hand as a puzzle I play until I find the winning plays like the daily challenges.

Confused

Before a recent update, I was playing Vegas solitaire. I was $100K in the hole after about 50,000 games (not bad, really; a loss of only $2 per game). My win rate was about 8%. The update hijacked my statistics, zeroed out my debt, and started me over with a new look I didn’t like. Now I am $100K in the black after only a few thousand games and my win rate is through the roof. Have I finally perfected my system? Am I a Vegas solitaire genius? Or did the boys and girls at Mobility decide to tweak the odds in my favor so I would feel better? I don’t feel better. I was okay with my old stats, powered by the conviction (no doubt false) that I was slowly perfecting my game and improving (remember, tens of thousands of games; 50K in my last run, but that was only my most recent reset - I’ve been playing for years and resetting my stats now and then when I wanted a do-over). Now I am a disappointed winner. I’ll keep playing, but gambler’s reinforcement - winning runs after long periods of loss - is gone, replaced by certainty. Who wants to be a winner?

Newer Version

This Mobility Solitaire game had been my favorite of all Solitaires, then it disappeared from my apps. I found another version, the graphics still good, but some changes in how cards fell in random deals. The cards would all be red and the same numbers, eg., 4 sevens in succession, and several eights in succession, etc. It become what seemed like impossible to win, and boring. I got back to pretty much liking the play, and winning a fair number of times. I've just gotta win those Daily Challenges!I just downloaded what seems to be the latest version and I like it thus far. I lost the first time I played, but undid everything and tried again and won. A sliding scale is one of the settings, so that the player can choose a percentage of win-able games. I chose 45%, but I'm going to lower it. I like a challenging game. I just don't like "random" deals that are like those described above. There are updates on the graphics, it seems. The graphics on this game have always been beautiful, card backs are like fine art. It is such a fine-looking game to play, and there are some new choices, also nice.I'm looking forward to playing lots of games with this version.

Used to be much better!

When this was a simple game it was awesome. Now you have added all of these bells and whistles that can’t be turned off! The user/player should have complete control in settings to turn off the frills that interrupt what used to be a very pleasant low key game. I love the music and graphics at the end, but there should be absolutely no interruptions in the game and no prompts to participate in any goals unless you choose to select them in settings. Please fix this. Thank you for your response, somehow I missed the option in settings and I apologize. My only other pet peeve about this game is that when I select a winning game, sometimes I don’t get one; Sometimes I can go back via undo, make changes and win other times not and the hints just say no useful moves detected! Now I wonder if I missed something in settings about this? Anyway I’m changing my review to five stars and I’m very happy that I am able to turn off the goal animations! Ah I went back and looked again and I found a setting for winning deals too! Hopefully I fixed it. Again please accept my apology, I’m feeling as thick as a brick.

New version needs some work, but nice

I also am tired of having to wait for the first screen to disappear. I have pretty much got used to the abbreviated cards, but don’t prefer them. They and the card outlines in back take up so much room it feels crowded, and I don’t like having the outlines in the background while your new and mostly great (I hate the martial swords and the clown face, which you kept) animations perform. And I wish you had more choice of thematic backgrounds, this year you keep messaging in this and another game that a new background is available, but it always turns out to be the same seasonal background as last year or the year before. And if you had all the time in the world, which I know I am not paying for much of it, I would love to see those original old card faces you mentioned on one first page! But I find the game relaxing while I think - at least until one takes 30 minutes to solve - and love it.

Developers mistake

I’ve used this app for 2 years. I purchased 3 other games from this developer because of this one. Now I wish I hadn’t. This abomination is not what I bought and no mount of fixing will make it better. I’ve asked the developer to consider an alternative that may satisfy but all I get is a canned reply. Zero customer satisfaction. Never will purchase another Mobilityware app.Update: Please don’t assume that the canned responses make up for a lack of credible customer service. Kicking the can upstairs to a “development team” is not accepting responsibility for what was done to this app. And it’s not showing consideration to the numerous customers who have complained in this space. I’ve made my case, added the suggestion to role this back or change the model for the Solitaire version in the app store that does not allow ad removal, to one that does. If there are others like me that are frustrated by this, check out the Solitaire+ app from A-Star.LATEST: Looks as though customer service kicked this debacle upstairs to the development team. And they’ve punted. No updates or fixes for nearly 4 weeks. This developer no longer cares to address any complaints. Don’t waste your money. Bad reviews outnumber good 10 to 1 or better.
