Forced ads

You get zero stars. As soon as you open the app up you are bombarded with adds and forced to choose allow for the app to force personalized ads there is no DECLINE option. Garbage app and same can be said for the ones who made it and force you to only accept ads there is no opt out AS THERE SHOULD BE.

Obnoxious ads

Adds come on and just sit there showing some picture I don’t want to see

Error

Today’s puzzle May 8/25 has an error. The word Britain is spelled wrong making the “down” words both wrong (pirsnip and tshart), and causing me to use the “see wrong” option when I actually didn’t have any errors. It has now happened two days in a row May 9/25 also. Each time I have had to waste a “see wrong” only to see that I was right and the puzzle was wrong. Todays incorrect word is “pliant” the puzzle has it as “plaint” For the third day in a row the puzzle is incorrect today May 10, 9 across/13 down the answers for “laugh at & stew” should be “scoff & fret” not “scofe & eret.

May 14/25
Another error on your part. Bottom left corner the clue is “rob”, you have the answer as ”strea” making the 3 “down words”, as well as steal all incorrect. I’m really getting annoyed at having to use the “see wrong” option and losing points, only to see that I didn’t have any wrong.

Fun but glitchy

I have completed several puzzles that say “In progress” and even gone back to use coins to show mistakes, and there are no mistakes but I’m out 150 coins.

Invasive.

Multiple pop-ups immediately after opening game.

Ads instantly upon selecting the daily crossword.

I downloaded the app. Opened it. And in under 5 seconds it gives me a pop up telling me to accept personalized ads. Another popup saying to buy coins, and another to buy packs/remove ads or whatevs. Then got an ad instantly after clicking the daily crossword. I bet if I continued for another 5 seconds the ad count would’ve reached the double digits. I strongly don’t recommend.

Good challenge

Good challenging puzzles but I wish there was more than one a day.

Relaxing

Enjoying these puzzles. They are challenging and fun

Weird clues

Apart from the constant AI ads, the clues are getting to be too much for me to keep this app. Why have I answered Israel for 5 clues? There have hardly been any other countries referenced in what I've played (let alone countries committing gen0c1de). There are KKK references in some clues and my breaking point was "Diarist" Frank for the word ANNE. There doesn't seem to be any thought going into the puzzles and I think you need to start doing some serious review of these puzzles before publishing.

Puzzles

There is no way to check answers !!

App needs work.

I like this app, but it lacks many of the basic features that other crossword apps have. It doesn’t skip completed letters or words making it hard to complete the puzzles without creating errors on words or clues you have already completed. I don’t play as often due to this. In fact, the app was inactive and when I played it again, I knew why I rarely played it. Please fix these problems. Your app will improve greatly.

Esoteric

Varies widely, some daily puzzles so esoteric, no fun anymore.

Cant just delete app

Don’t recommend they won’t let you delete this app from the phone you own and paid for!!!!!!

To many popups

Deleted over popups

Holding me hostage

I’ve tried the app, didn’t like it, when I try to remove it I’m not allowed.

Button presses

Hi, I just have to say that on an iPad that the top row and the bottom row seem to have much smaller target Arias and it often goes to the coins screen. Very annoying.

Wrong solution

I spent $0.99 to solve a puzzle and the solution was incorrect. Tuition collectors and band to support the pants, a Bursar and a Belt. But the solution was a D, not a B. That is incorrect and I want my $0.99 back. If you cheat every single player out of $0.99 then you’re running a scam to steal our money. How is that fun? Ridiculous.

Retyping letters

I like the puzzles but don’t understand why letters have to be retyped when filling in words. Also, the clues don’t naturally move in sequence, one to the next.
