What's New in Apparent Sudoku

2.5

October 18, 2026

Race your friends on every puzzle. • See your Game Center friends' times on any puzzle you've both played, not just the Daily: before you start, while you play, and when you finish. • New games start on a puzzle a friend has solved, so there's always someone to beat. While you play, the clock shows the next friend to beat and where you're on pace to finish. • Send a friend your time in a tap, through Messages, WhatsApp or anything else, and see who's ahead this week and your record against each friend. • Finishing a row, column or box now lands with a soft tint, each digit key shows how many are left, and there are quiet sounds if you'd like them. • Fixes: undo after a hint takes back only the hint, a 3 Strikes miss now marks its square, and the clock pauses while a menu covers the game.

Does what i want it to

I was just looking for a game I could use my Apple Pencil with and this does the job. Puzzles are solvable (I promise) and it does a decent job of recognizing what numbers I’m writing (except for 9s, I usually have to try a couple of times). It does tend to highlight irrelevant numbers occasionally when I’m highlighting a different number though.
