Across Lite Crosswords User Reviews

Just the Best

I like crosswords. However, I do one and that's it. This one you keep the 'shell' and buy crosswords to put in it that are to your liking. You can also go online and download literally hundreds of any type you wish to match your skill level, to learn from or maybe something different to try. You can have cryptic, hard, medium or beginners to satisfy your need to do crosswords. I really like having the same layout for all my crosswords. It is surely an excellent concept and I for one love it. It's a knockout.

Puzzles are even more fun with Across Lite!

I always look forward to the New York Times Sunday crossword puzzle. A good puzzle and a cup of coffee are a great way to start the day. Since I started using Across Lite, I seem to finish puzzles even faster than before. I like that I can fill in the few letters of a word that I may know, just like I used to in the Times Magazine. I like that the app has different levels of difficulty where you can choose to see your correct letters as you go or not. The app could use some help with rebus puzzles, which are my favorite (besides the cryptic crosswords). Right now, each cell only accepts one letter per square which makes solving a rebus a bit harder since you need to remember what's really in those rebus squares. But even with that, I'd recommend the app. It also makes finding puzzles online easy as pie!

Just installed the update, and haven't seen a rebus to solve yet, so I'm not sure if the programmers have found a way to make rebus puzzles easier to read/solve yet. Still loving the app,

Excellent App

I have been using this app for quite a few years to do Matt Gaffney's daily crossword. Works very well either with the iPad screen or BlueTooth keyboard. Highly recommend this app.

Across Life

I have just started using crosswords on line and am happy with this as a beginners choice. :-)

Yay

Easy to use and fast to solve, very relaxing.
