  • Great app!

    Since the recent update, the letters are not rearranged according to the previous typed word. This really throws me off my time. Also could you please come out with a paid version of Word Warp so that I don’t have to see an ad every time I finish a game? I’ve been waiting for several years for you to ‘update’ this app so that I can pay for the app instead of making it free but bombarding you with ads. I was very disappointed that you did update the app but still didn’t have the option of paying for the app.

  • New format ...😩

    I don’t like the new format at all , used to play a lot but don’t now , totals don’t add as you go, harder to push letters in place
    Please revert back to old way

  • Broadening my vocabulary

    Great game to keep your mind ticking over and learn some new words. I like the link to the dictionary.
  • Not a huge fan of change

    I have played Word Warp for years and LOVE it, finding it a great way to both relax and keep my mind engaged. But today when I went to play there was now a privacy disclaimer and terms of use that needed reading and agreeing to. I almost closed the thing and thought “there went another of my favorites”, but I didn’t, I agreed and proceeded.

    Well, I truly dislike the font and the game is so sluggish now and takes a noticeable pause to load a new frame. And there’s a freaking ad after every single game frame! Some of them are now video ads that you have no choice but to watch the entire 30 second ad. Seriously frustrated and disappointed, actually bordering on angry. I accept your right/need to insert ads; I don’t appreciate being held hostage to them.

    I’ll sleep on this but seriously I think you lost a rabid fan with this move. Really disappointed.

  • Bring back the previous model

    I font like the upgraded look of WordWarp. Seriously thinking about deleting it permanently and looking for a replacement. Selected letters often do not register. It is no longer a quick, relaxing game.

  • Used to be a great game

    Played Word Warp regularly for years until it was upgraded this week. First, it kept crashing. Plus, I can’t shrink the screen on the iPhone version anymore. Worst is the loss of touch sensitivity. You must be deliberate in tapping the letters or else they won’t be chosen, which really slows down the game because your word ends up having missing letters and you have to renter it more carefully. Also, the ads have become very annoying because there is one after every game and they are longer than it takes to play the game. You can’t close and reopen the game to clear the ad. It’s been a good run, but I deleted Word Warp. I’m looking for a new word game like Word Warp used to be - simple, clean interface without a lot of graphics, ads, music, in-app purchases, increasing levels, required multiplayer, or other annoyances. I’m willing to pay for a good game. I’ve been looking at best IOS word game reviews, and so far none grab me.

  • Ad free return please!

    I paid for the Ad free version many years ago only to have the paid version not upgraded to iOS11 and therefore useless. Contacted support on several occasions and fibbed off with vague statements as to “being developed”. Months later and still waiting. Ads are excruciating!

    To add to above: latest version is appalling. I will be deleting this game as I no longer enjoy it. Constant ads and the operating system now changed for the worse.

  • Terrible Update

    This has been my go-to game since my first iPhone, ages ago. I could forgive all the obnoxious, interrupting ads because if you turned off the WiFi, it solved that issue (I’m still irked that I paid for the ad-free app and got screwed on that count when they decided to take everyone’s money and put ads back in). I can’t forgive the new update though for a whole host of reasons:
    1. The text change is terrible. The font is bigger, brighter and hard on the eyes.
    2. The text change screwed up the placement. Nothing is centered or aligned properly.
    3. They removed the ability to pause the game. (Oh look, they brought that back a day later after everyone complained)
    4. The buttons used to be super sensitive and intuitive. You could type in words super fast. Not anymore. I sometimes have to tap a letter multiple times for it to register and just as many times for it to take the word.
    5. The ads are even more obnoxious than they used to be, if that’s possible.

    The app looked and functioned just fine. Why go and break what wasn’t broken? This wasn’t an update, it was a downgrade.

  • 2 stars because it used to be great

    I wouldn’t review it or even keep it if I’d only used the latest version. This has been an app I’ve used daily for years but the latest version has me ready to delete it. I’ve really enjoyed it. I’ve put up with the endless ads with the recent versions, but now they’re longer and more insistent in their presentation. Added to that, it’s buggier than heck (never used to be) and slower to load. I’ve quit the app multiple times because I think it’s frozen, only to find out I just have to wait. I’ve been presented with screens where it says my score is zero and it only displays one word (the six letter word) to fill in. The pause function only works sometimes. I’ve gotten out of the app during play and gone back in only to find my score has been reset to zero. It has been turned into a piece of junk. Probably tracking me too. I can’t recommend it. If you’re an advertiser within this app, I would spend my money elsewhere.

  • You ruined it

    I’ve been using this app for over a decade and have loved it until now. The latest release is awful - the interface is more klunky. The font is too large, and there are no settings options to reduce the font display size. And it now takes two or three touches to select a letter to be included in the word you’re creating - it’s like the label of the letter block is misaligned or too small or something. Also, the algorithm for how the selectable letters display after you enter a word is different - can’t put my finger on it, but whatever my “muscle memory” was used to is not working the same way anymore. An app I used to look forward to as a break between demands on my time is no longer fun. You ruined it.
