Great game!

I’ve tried almost every crossword game out there. This is by far the best. Not too hard but still challenging, love it !

Ad Inserts kill the fun & become crossword hell!

Done these crosswords for a while now but the increasing frequency of the adverts has exceeded my patience & I’m easy going but this is crossword hell for any normal rational person, so sadly I am removing this App & moving on to crossword heaven elsewhere!

Like it very much. Buuuut ?

I always buy this type of book( Arrow words )for holidays and travelling keeps me quiet for hours.....and I do have a few books left to finish no doubt years away from that...🙄 Found this 1st time I’ve ever come across it on an App and thought great, and I’m enjoying it very much.....But here’s the Buuuut... For the support team..... It Would really help if when you put the wrong word in like I have on occasions to be able to get a clue or a letter to help you solve and finish it. Yes you can go back but I like finishing it and moving on.......😤 This isn’t a criticism just a thought......Would of been 5 stars otherwise.....😬

Erstmal drei Sterne.

App über AppStore geladen und gekauft - keine Werbung mehr. Danach über „meine gekauften Apps“ aufs iPad geladen und die Werbung war wieder da! Zweimal kaufen geht ja nicht. Und warum sind in den Fragestellungen (auf Deutsch) keine Umlaute enthalten? Warum muss man die Wörter immer wieder ganz ausschreiben anstatt nur die einzelnen Buchstaben in die leeren Kästchen einzufügen wie bei anderen Kreuzworträtsel-Apps?

Good for engaging brain

I really enjoy using this app. It's great to use when killing time. Unfortunately I have found in this latest version that clues are not populating once solved, despite no longer being available to enter words in to. I don't know if there is something I can do to fix this myself but if not can this be looked in to please? Thank you.

Zoom fehlt

Hallo. Gut gemacht. Aber mir fehlen da die ein oder zwei Einstellungen. Wichtig wäre manueller Zoom bzw deaktivierung des Autozooms auf ein Feld. Vielleicht ist es möglich den Zoom selbst einstellen zu können. Und auch die Zentrierung auf die Zeile die man gerade in der Mangel hat auszustellen bzw manuell oder automatisch einstellbar wäre :)

Freezing Ads!

The app was my favourite app to pass the time.. UNTIL the ads started freezing and I was unable to cross them off the screen. I am no longer able to use the app as a certain advertisement has been stuck on my screen for quite a while now. This is a great disappointment.

It was great, until...

Ads. Ads ads ads. They were pretty much ignorable before then they added in the ones that take over your screen and force you to cross them off if you want to continue playing, they appear every 10 seconds I swear. Unfortunately the layout makes it extremely difficult to navigate anyway on iPhone screens so after this ads rubbish, have had to delete it :( shame!

Good app

This is more 3.5/5. It's a well-made and addictive app, however the same words come up again and again, which can get very annoying and I've seen a couple of what i assume to be americanised phrases which I've never heard of being British. Also it may be useful to be able to put individual letters in, for example if you might know a word ends in 'tion' or something, as you would do in a newspaper. Apart from that though, it's a very good app :)

Unhappy Update

I was really enjoying this app, really easy to use with a good selection of puzzles. Sadly the most recent update with "bug fixes" added video ads every few entries. I understand the need for advertising & am not put off by the advertising banners at the bottom. Now the noise and intrusiveness of the ads has caused me to delete the app. Too bad.
