Best Sudoku for iOS

I’ve tried perhaps a dozen different versions of this game, and this is by far most flexible of the bunch. You can configure it to provide varying degrees of assistance. If you ask for hints, it not only gives the result of the hint, but also explains how it was done.

Puzzles come in a range of difficult, and you can bring in your own.

If someone knows of a better version, I’d like to hear about it, because I haven’t seen it.

Ditto to the comment re: best Sudoku ever.

I too love the hint feature, because I learn so much from it. One suggestion to developers: some hints go directly to solution, while others explain first and then show the solution. I prefer the two-step approach. Going slowly helps me learn the rationale better.

Improvement I’d like to see? The Hint feature takes you to one and only one next move when, in fact, there frequently are several equally good next moves available. I wish app would allow me to see all of them.

Thanks.

Sudoku

This is the best version of sudoku I have played. Easy to switch from pencil to fill in. Good levels of play which help develop skills needed for more advanced levels. Play this every day and recommend it highly.

Love this game

Update—I still love this game, and think it is the best version, but the latest update broke the ability to play a game from your photo library, which I use all the time to play the Sudoku from my digital newspaper.

I am really impressed by all the features, especially the capability to enter your own puzzle from somewhere else. This really is the best Sudoko game by far. No need to try any others. The paid version is worth it.

Best I've Used For Improving - but a glitch!

Original review below. Still a great app, but Scan from Camera, and Photo Library are currently not working.

Really like how much you can configure this to provide the level of support I need. But even better are the highly detailed explanations available when you ask for a hint. I thought I was pretty good at Sudoku, but based on how I stack up against other players' times, I'm average at best.

Best App for Playing and Learning Sudoku

For just playing Sudoku, :)Sudoku+ works better than as any other Sudoku app I have tried. I’ve tried many. It has a great selection of difficulty levels and some wonderful tools for those trying to expand their skill. Where it excels is in “Learning Sudoku methods” and its ability to scan in paper puzzles. This is the only Sudoku App you will ever need.

Best Sudoku Ever!!

Update again: Still the best Sudoku app.

Update: still using this game after several years, I have never found another I like better. I like the daily games, though there never seems to be a shortage of new game to play. It definitely keeps my brain challenged. I am slowly moving up the difficulty chain. If I can exceed 50% most of the time, I'm ready to move on. Oh, and please don't add sounds that can't be turned off. I play in bed sometimes, chimes or other sounds would wake my partner.

Features I haven't found in other games, like highlighting all the places I've used a digit; letting me know when I've completed a row or column; highlighting a completed digit. It is my favorite.

Why does it read my clipboard?

No joke I've played this version since I had a palm pilot. It's been my go to for over a decade. Only now ios tells you when an app reads your clipboard, and it has been doing so for years. Passwords, addresses, anything, it's been accessing it. And when my clipboard is empty is populates it with my current puzzle whether I want it to or not.

So now I have to find a new version.

Please disable clipboard access or give us the option to do so. I want to trust you but I cannot in this state, especially when the app also wants internet access.
