The interface is cluttery and is designed to make you click on ads so you can click on something and literally be on a screen that you don’t know how to get off. The ads are normal ads and they make you wait for the next play. The good thing is the ads only appear between games, not during the actual gameplay itself. I do enjoy playing the game, but likely will get tired of it at some point because of all of the ads. ### 4/5 — Too slow *2025-10-04, version 5.4* The old version moved more quickly and allowed for several games per minute! I also miss the emotion emojis! Bring them back! ### 3/5 — Two things that don’t quite add up. *2025-09-27, version 5.4* Two things that don’t make sense about the game. Magically your partner and opponents are still there after you been gone several minutes between hands? People in this day and age can’t be held captive for 30 seconds at a light and go on green. The other thing don’t like is no chat or even emojis. ### 3/5 — Lack of Control *2024-08-22, version 5.3* I don’t like the fact as the player I’m not able to determine the amount I’d like to bet. Also I don’t like the “next round” without being able to leave the game without a penalty. ### 2/5 — Sorry Partner *2024-08-08, version 5.3* When I pulled trumps my partner had the Big Joker instead of playing it he lets the opponent win the book ### 2/5 — Game commercials *2024-08-06, version 5.3* Too many video commercials that are over two minutes long for each 30 secondhand and I play I must watch commercial videos about games over and over again. I enjoyed the game but I cannot handle video commercials. If I watch one save the King commercial I might not ever play the game again thank you for a great game, but I’m done. ### 2/5 — Too Many Ads!!!!! *2024-07-29, version 5.3* Love the game but too many really long ads. They take away from the game. I’ve stopped playing very often. It’s too annoying. ### 3/5 — Best I found thus far *2024-07-04, version 5.1* Best whist game I found thus far. Don’t like the ads, just a little over the top but I understand. ### 4/5 — Good Game But! *2024-05-10, version 5.1* Game play and functionality is great. Just too many add interruptions. There should be a purchase option as the adds are incessant and spoiling the game play. Please offer a no adds option ### 2/5 — Too Many Ads *2024-02-13, version 5.1* The first time I opened up the app I had to listen to an ad. After each hand you have to listen to your ad. I see a reason to pay for this app just to see how it plays. ### 3/5 — Crashes too often *2024-01-24, version 5.1* After about ten or fifteen minutes of playing the scene freezes. I have to delete the app and start over. I like playing the game but the freezing is a nuisance ### 3/5 — Great game..TOO MANY ADS *2024-01-03, version 5.1* There are way too many LONG ads! ### 2/5 — NOT REAL PLAYERS *2023-04-09, version 5.1* Thought I was playing with REAL players! I hope this app isn’t using my photo when I’m NOT on here pretending that I’m LIVE playing. You’re playing the computer with photos of real people. ### 2/5 — Bid Whist *2023-03-02, version 5.1* This game is set up for the computer partner to lose games on purpose . I have lost five games in a row because the computer partner will not play kickers when it has the only one left on the board or will cut out your book when not necessary and will out bid you when it doesn’t have enough trump or winning cards for the hand. Don’t trust this game if you want to learn or sharpen your skills. Game is a rip off. ### 3/5 — Great game but too many adsssss *2023-03-01, version 5.1* It’s getting the to point where I don’t even want to play. Y’all are play music themed ads during the game. I was not ok but became accustomed to all the ads but once you guys start playing the ads music during the game really irritated my soul smh ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Lots of ads and playing bots *2025-12-13, version 5.4* It has potential and was fun for a day but the amount of ads had me closing the ap after each hand to reload and play again instead of watching the same one over and over. If you have played in person you realize quickly that you aren’t playing people you are playing the computer and your partner will sabotage you at times. ### 1/5 — Partner *2025-12-04, version 5.4* My partner hardly ever bids and when partner bids it’s looses. Also doesn’t play joker correctly. ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2025-09-12, version 5.4* Having to watch a full ad after every game is too much ### 1/5 — Too many Ads *2025-07-19, version 5.4* Way too many adds no ad free option. Fun game. ### 1/5 — Tooooo many ads *2025-06-07, version 5.4* The game would be ok but you spend more time watching ads for other games than you do playing the one you want ### 1/5 — Rip Off! *2024-09-28, version 5.3* I paid to remove ads but they come back every time I close the app and reopen!! ### 1/5 — Too Many Adds *2024-08-06, version 5.3* So many adds and no way to select “remove adds” that I had to delete the app before I could before got to play a single game. The option to remove adds needs to be available constantly. Very frustrating!!!! ### 1/5 — TOO TOO MANY ADS *2024-04-09, version 5.1* TOO TOO MANY ADS TOO TOO MANY ADS ### 1/5 — I purchased the app to cancel ads to no avail *2023-04-11, version 5.1* The free app is more ads than game. The ads interrupt your play and you have to hit x in the middle of your game to do an ad and continue playing. There is an ad literally every 30 seconds. UPDATE: Your response is NOT helpful because I PAID for the ad free version and STILL have ads. ### 1/5 — Not good *2023-01-05, version 5.1* This app has way too many ads . Do not download ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Ads *2026-06-23, version 5.4* Great game to mine ads ### 5/5 — Fun playing *2025-10-24, version 5.4* Love playing. Fun. Engaging ### 5/5 — Quiet*Storm *2025-07-21, version 5.4* Excellent gam ### 5/5 — Great Game. *2024-06-19, version 5.1* Great game, game me my whist fix. I’m gonna purchase the as free option. ### 5/5 — BidWhist GOD *2023-11-01, version 5.1* I was brought up, watching my grandparents, and parents play this game until I mastered it, and now I can’t be stopped! Lol ### 5/5 — Needs improvement *2023-03-02, version 5.1* The AI needs work. Partner never bids. Plays cards that appears that it takes into account the cards that are in other players hands. I don’t normally complain about the advertising, I understand they have to make money for their effort, but the ads in this app are annoying obtrusive. Sometimes several times during a single hand. ### 5/5 — Good learning skillS *2023-02-04, version 5.1* Playing with a computer. Bidwhist is much different. ### 5/5 — Bid whiz *2023-01-16, version 5.1* Love this game ### 5/5 — Bid whist fan *2022-11-22, version 5.1* I really enjoy playing Bid whist. It is a lot of fun making the bids and it is also competitive. ### 5/5 — Review *2022-10-17, version 5.1* Why --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
