They listened!
I’ve been playing this game for years. I started having difficulty seeing the numbers on the cards so I wrote to mobility ware with a suggestion. About a month later they came out with a redesigned card that I could easily see!
They have been great adding new animations, I love the dancing card man he makes me laugh. Some of their designs are quite elaborate, the card ship, the airplane and the Jeep.
The new daily challenges are fun. I never paid attention to the old one it was just another game, but these kind of change things up so that’s fun.
Solitaire is a great stress soother and these days that’s important.Show lessnametaken4:68
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 highestShow lessEilid Sidhe
Slow performance? Restart your device.
I love this app, but I was also experiencing the problem where the game pauses at startup. The initial animation with the card suits freezes, and then when the game starts, you tap a card, and nothing happens for about 5-10 seconds. After the game finally responds to the initial card tap, it works as normal until you go away and come back much later, at which point you get the freezing card suit animation again.
I fixed this by shutting my phone down completely and restarting it. After I did that, the game worked much better.Show lessLoneStrikr
From 5-Star to 1-Star in single update
I love the game. I wish I could choose “default order” for Aces to build, though. Having them in the same order each time makes it easier to focus on the rest of the game.
I wrote the above comment a few years ago, and I still wish for that option...in fact, I periodically look through the Settings to see if this option was “snuck” in there.
Would it be that hard? Club, Diamond, Heart, Spade is the order I always build on, no matter which appears first.
It would be nice, say, to “tap” the ace of spades and have it go to the far right, even if it were the first ace to come up.Show lessSam77w
Fix your program for dealing cards — it’s broken
You’ve obviously decided that your game isn’t difficult enough. Therefore, you’ve decided to deal pairs of cards of the same color, one on top of the other. Almost every hand has, for example, two black nines, or two red tens, or two of something else of the same color, together in the same stack. This makes these games much harder to win, as you know and as you have no doubt intended.
Please stop this and fix it now! The odds of getting two cards of the same number/face and same color on top of one another, hand after hand after hand is astronomical. I don’t appreciate being manipulated by your organization. Give the players a fair random deal each and every game. That’s not asking too much.
I love to play your card game, but only if it’s fair. It’s not fair now!Show lessRet. USAF Colonel
It’s good, BUT...
It really is a real good Solitaire game, with plenty of options for play, but… At the end of each win, you get a screen showing your score, your time and the number of moves you made in the game. You also see those same figures for “Best” that’s not explained very well (it’s not your personal best, but measured against some unclear metric). Under the Best Time, it ALWAYS says a time in the neighborhood of 30 seconds, give or take a few seconds! I even once saw a Best Time of about 23 seconds! I want to meet THE HUMAN BEING that can play and win a hand of Klondike Solitaire in this app in 23 seconds!! It’s this screen that’s the only thing about this game I don’t like, and this is a totally personal gripe. I’m sure the numbers are supposed to be a motivator to encourage you to play better, but I find it more depressing than anything else, so I turned that screen off in Settings. Other than that, I love this game.Show lessStymyx
Can’t transfer progress
I have been playing the free version of this app for several months. The Ad implementation on that version is terrible. Even in airplane mode you are bombarded with 2 ads before every single game. So I finally broke down and bought the ad free version. Unfortunately your progress in one version is not transferred to the paid version. So I lost 2 months of daily challenges. Not the end of the world but why wouldn’t you be able to transfer your progress through Game Center? Also I haven’t found a single difference between this and the ad sponsored version so you’re only paying to remove ads.Show lessBsakelarides
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.Show less235790865325

When I got my first I-pad 4 years ago, I downloaded and paid for Solitaire and it was was simple and easy to play. Now, this version I down Loaded to a second I-pad the settings no longer give me the ability to switch the side on which the deck of cards resides. Also, the pop up bar for the settings covers the cards while using the I-pad in the landscape position. I do not understand why changes have to eliminate things users actually use and/or create views that are bothersome. What do you say, folks, can you take ideas from the past and include them in future versions? If you do, I would like to be able to update my current version.Show lessBJJ71
Still the vey Best solitaire out there!
Used for over 3 years and it just keeps getting better and better! Lots of setting options, amazing animations and love the new themes for the holidays and on daily challenges area. The trophies are really a lot of fun; just wish you could more frequently earn them, perhaps by winning a certain amount of games in a row, or something like that? , as waiting every ten days seems too long😆. Developers: if you’re reading, that would REALLY make the game Da,Bomb! And even more fun and addictive! There is still a little lag when flipping the cards since the latest animation-packed update too, but not a deal breaker. Keep up the awesomeness mobilityware , and thanks!Show lesssuzanne-del
