At first it played like a real game of bid euchre but for awhile now it’s a call, shot the moon every second hand. I had one play where the other team had 3 shot the moons plus a call all within 8 hands. Not representative of a real game. I’m sorry it’s not running true to the game as very boring and frustrating. Can’t even report the problem as when click support get error. I first tried the app with 4+ stars but the bots called 1 or 2 cards almost every hand. Very unrealistic of a real bid euchre hand. The bots pass you wrong cards, etc. so I deleted that app. Tried this one and it’s much more realistic of an actual game. The animation is better on the first app but at least this one runs true to the game. No more adds on this app as the other. ### 2/5 — Good practice app but …… *2023-07-15, version 3.1* This is a good simple app to practice but it got to the point where I was watching more adds than playing ### 2/5 — Support *2023-06-04, version 3.1* App support address is not working. So my question is in iOS can I remove ads? I click remove but nothing happens. Thanks. ### 3/5 — Bid euchre *2023-04-07, version 3.1* I find it frustrating when I drop two cards, then my opponent drops two cards also and gets the bid. ### 2/5 — Partner *2023-03-25, version 3.1* My partner has no strategy skills. It’s frustrating for an experienced player to see way less than normal plays and unnecessary bids. Please put some effort into your program to make playing more accurate . ### 2/5 — Rigged *2022-11-01, version 3.1* Nice layout, but it’s rigged. If I ask partner for a suit, I don’t get it. I count the cards, and partner holds back even though he should have them, because they weren’t laid. Computer gets the better hand 9 out of 10 times. Frustrating and enough to turn me right off. If you really like the game, I’m sure there is a better out there. ### 3/5 — Not bad *2021-12-17, version 2.6* I find my hands seem to be too much of a mixed bag way too often, whilst the opponents seem to have stronger hands dealt more frequently. Compared to playing in real life…you do get the feeling the app has the cards against you much more often than not. Otherwise fun but then comes a feeling of ‘what’s the point’. ### 3/5 — Bid Euchre *2021-09-04, version 2.6* After someone does a call two it will only allow a pass or moonshot. Doesn’t allow a call one. ### 3/5 — Bid euchre *2021-03-30, version 2.6* For every game played the opposing team has at least ask for 1or 2. I find it a very unfair game. I play a lot of bid in person and you definitely don’t see every game with the opponent asking for 1 or 2. Make your game realistic. Twice I have had the first bid asking for 2 cards and opponent on my right asks for 2 and he/she wins the bid???????? ### 3/5 — Bid Euchre *2020-12-09, version 2.6* My frustration with my partner is that it always ups my bid of no trump. Ergh!! It can never get back to my hand so we go down every time. In that vein, I would also like to see the partner “read” some of my cues in order to get an idea what I have in my hand. Likewise, the partner could give me reliable clues. It would help make the game more realistic. Covid Games ### 3/5 — Bid euchre *2020-08-19, version 2.5* Just wish the scoreboard worked, gets Tried playing only against your partner ### 3/5 — Bid euchre *2020-08-09, version 2.4* For months now I have been unable to play for the bids are only a bubble.Ive done everything possible including deleting and getting it back USELESS My partner constantly raises my 4 bid to6and never makes it.Is the game rigged for the opponent.Hope to see some improvement made.Its impossible to have the nicknames I chose already used for 3 of the 4 were made up names. ### 4/5 — Great App *2020-07-15, version 2.4* Overall great app, with a fairly good AI. However i find that sometimes the partner increases the bid even though the opponents have both passed, thereby getting the lead and increasing the difficulty of winning a well calculated and strategized hand. I have also observed a bug where the bids cannot be seen. Sometimes it’s just the number, other times it’s both the number and the suit. This is due to the font of the writing being white on a white bubble background. This bug has this far only happened when the game background was a greyscale plaid/checker/white dots. Thanks for putting out a great bid euchre game and keep up the good work! Cheers ### 2/5 — Bid Euchre2 *2020-05-21, version 2.3.2* I downloaded the game to an iPad, but the rules do not show up. Also, it does not show the players bids, and all text is in white. The scoring chart is also in white text, and very hard to read. My husband downloaded the game to his iPad and it works fine. I have deleted the game and reloaded from the cloud, but its still the same. Please advise. ### 2/5 — Little Error *2020-04-08, version 2.3.2* They don’t have the game ques or scoreboard in a color that’s visible with the background...minor but significant ### 3/5 — No popups doesn’t work *2020-02-29, version 2.3.2* The game is okay, (especially for a free game) but don’t fall for the $1.99 to stop popups. I paid it and the popups just keep coming. ### 2/5 — Not bad *2020-02-15, version 2.3* This is close to a game my family plays. We use 9’s and 10’s too and 5 players so you call for your partner. Would be better if you make a mistake bidding you had the opportunity to reset. Now I can’t see what is being hid since an update. Very frustrating. ### 3/5 — Right Bower & Concede Button *2019-12-01, version 2.3* 1. There’s a glitch with the right bower. The player calling trump usually leads with the right bower when they have one. That’s fine. However, later my “partner” will play the right bower as though it’s a low trump card (i.e. even lower than the queen). It will often leave the team short of the highest trump card. This is SO frustrating and often results in the team losing the hand. Other than this annoying flaw, I’m addicted to this app. 2. Make the CONCEDE button an Option or change its location on the screen. It’s in a bad place on the screen and I’m always hitting it by mistake. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Boring *2025-11-04, version 3.5* Bids are high no trump or low no trump 9 times out of 10. ### 1/5 — Garbage *2023-03-25, version 3.1* It is a piece of junk! We play bid Euchre quite a bit and there is no way the hands that the opponents come up with that many times is even possible! ### 1/5 — Bid Euchre *2022-08-07, version 3.1* Since when can someone call a hand without a right bower?? This game is far from being anywhere near perfect! ### 1/5 — Do not pay to remove ads. *2020-09-18, version 2.5* I paid the $1.99 to remove ads from the app and they are still showing up. You can’t get app support using the link, you get an error message. Not worth it. ### 1/5 — Garbage *2020-09-09, version 2.5* Still getting ads after deleting and reinstalling. Good way for developer to get user money and ad money. Seems suspect to me anyway. No app support either. Error 104 ### 1/5 — Could be better *2020-03-29, version 2.3.2* It plays fairly well. As far as the other comments go, maybe the algorithm for card distribution could be improved but in real cards, you don’t always get what you want anyway. Would love to see it in landscape orientation for iPad and online to allow other users to play, not just virtual players. UPDATE: Have discovered that the software steals tricks that the player has won. BAD!!! WISH LIST: 1) Would love to see the app work in landscape mode. 2) Would love to have the ability to network with other players, especially during this COVID-19 virus outbreak keeping us all at home. ### 1/5 — Version 2.3 text in white *2020-01-18, version 2.3* Latest version shows text in white on iOS 13.2.3 - unplayable so deleted the app. This is so frustrating! FIX THIS APP! ### 1/5 — New update creates problems *2019-10-05, version 2.0* Can’t read bids anymore after new update. AI seems tilted against user. ### 1/5 — Me too *2019-10-03, version 2.0* I totally agree with all these reviews. I find it very frustrating and would not play any longer if there was more bid euchre games in the App Store, which there isn’t any so I am stuck with it. Too bad as I really enjoy playing bid euchre. It has gotten really hard to win a game, it always goes to the opponent. It is getting worse, it is almost impossible to win a game. The cards always go to the opponents so they get all the bids. Come you guys, do something about it to make it more interesting. ### 1/5 — Still needs work *2019-03-22, version 1.6.0* Game does not follow normal rules. Does not use reasonable logic. Frequently Grants trick to wrong person. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Best around. *2024-07-21, version 3.4.0* Very entertaining. Little things to improve like when you hit a CLEAR button, at least ask ‘Are you sure?’. And maybe a Game Won/Lost counter. Tried the others and don’t like their presentation. ### 5/5 — Great on iPad, not so much on iPhone *2020-08-22, version 2.5* Overall great execution on a fun card game. iPad gives the space to play it where the phone is too small to see and click. Minor issues on partner logic and where buttons are located (hate the Clear Scores). It really is a five star program since version 2.4. ### 5/5 — Recent Improvements *2019-11-28, version 2.3* Recent improvements make this app most enjoyable. For example if you are dealt a bunch of kings and queens and don’t want to waste your time playing the hand, you can go on to the next hand by punching the concede button. I know the developer and he accepts feedback and is constantly working on further improvements. ### 5/5 — Love this game! *2019-02-11, version 1.6.0* Since the recent updates this game plays really well. Programmer does a great job of incorporating improvements. Recommend this to folks who want to get practice playing No Trump low too. ### 5/5 — Outstanding App *2019-01-31, version 1.5.6* Recent updates have really improved an already great App. Anyone who plays regular Euchre should try Bid Euchre. You will never want to play regular Euchre again and this App provides a truly realistic experience. I’m totally hooked! Can’t stop playing this game! ### 5/5 — So addictive! *2019-01-22, version 1.4.3* I don’t understand the poor reviews. To me the game plays very similar to playing in person. I win as many as I lose. It had a minor glitch, I contacted the writer and he responded immediately and made the correction. Playing this has improved my play and I love it. 5 stars for sure! ### 5/5 — Great game! *2018-08-27, version 1.3.8* The only negative about this game is the amount of time you spend playing it! Totally addictive! ### 4/5 — bid euchre *2023-03-11, version 3.1* Realistic play. I like the game and I like this app. Only turnoff is too many Advertising appearances. Great job. ### 4/5 — Can’t remove ads *2023-01-15, version 3.1* I love the game, but the Remove Ads button on the Options screen doesn’t work on my iPad Pro. Help! I want to get rid of the ads! ### 4/5 — Bad partner *2020-10-27, version 2.5* Stupid partner bids high when I bid low or if I bid 4 even though next player passes they bid 5 and another euchre. Wish we could change partners. Other than that I love this game, play it way to much. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
