Great App

Overall great app, with a fairly good AI. However i find that sometimes the partner increases the bid even though the opponents have both passed, thereby getting the lead and increasing the difficulty of winning a well calculated and strategized hand.
I have also observed a bug where the bids cannot be seen. Sometimes it’s just the number, other times it’s both the number and the suit. This is due to the font of the writing being white on a white bubble background. This bug has this far only happened when the game background was a greyscale plaid/checker/white dots.
Thanks for putting out a great bid euchre game and keep up the good work!
Cheers

Bid Euchre2

I downloaded the game to an iPad, but the rules do not show up.
Also, it does not show the players bids, and all text is in white.
The scoring chart is also in white text, and very hard to read.
My husband downloaded the game to his iPad and it works fine.
I have deleted the game and reloaded from the cloud, but its still the same. Please advise.

Little Error

They don’t have the game ques or scoreboard in a color that’s visible with the background...minor but significant

Could be better

It plays fairly well. As far as the other comments go, maybe the algorithm for card distribution could be improved but in real cards, you don’t always get what you want anyway. Would love to see it in landscape orientation for iPad and online to allow other users to play, not just virtual players.
UPDATE:
Have discovered that the software steals tricks that the player has won. BAD!!!
WISH LIST:
1) Would love to see the app work in landscape mode.
2) Would love to have the ability to network with other players, especially during this COVID-19 virus outbreak keeping us all at home.

No popups doesn’t work

The game is okay, (especially for a free game) but don’t fall for the $1.99 to stop popups. I paid it and the popups just keep coming.

Not bad

This is close to a game my family plays. We use 9’s and 10’s too and 5 players so you call for your partner. Would be better if you make a mistake bidding you had the opportunity to reset. Now I can’t see what is being hid since an update. Very frustrating.

Version 2.3 text in white

Latest version shows text in white on iOS 13.2.3 - unplayable so deleted the app. This is so frustrating! FIX THIS APP!

Right Bower & Concede Button

1. There’s a glitch with the right bower. The player calling trump usually leads with the right bower when they have one. That’s fine. However, later my “partner” will play the right bower as though it’s a low trump card (i.e. even lower than the queen). It will often leave the team short of the highest trump card. This is SO frustrating and often results in the team losing the hand. Other than this annoying flaw, I’m addicted to this app.
2. Make the CONCEDE button an Option or change its location on the screen. It’s in a bad place on the screen and I’m always hitting it by mistake.

Recent Improvements

Recent improvements make this app most enjoyable. For example if you are dealt a bunch of kings and queens and don’t want to waste your time playing the hand, you can go on to the next hand by punching the concede button. I know the developer and he accepts feedback and is constantly working on further improvements.

New update creates problems

Can’t read bids anymore after new update. AI seems tilted against user.
