About
Crosswords that are finally about you.
The newspaper hands everyone the same grid. CrossIQ builds you one about the thing you actually care about.
Type any topic — a band, a decade, a branch of science, an inside joke — and CrossIQ picks the answer words, writes real clues for them, and interlocks them into a proper across-and-down grid. Usually in under thirty seconds.
A FRESH GRID EVERY MORNING
One new crossword a day, every day. Solve any puzzle to keep your streak alive, and a freeze covers the day life gets in the way.
EDITORS' PICKS AND THEMED BUNDLES
Curators choose the week's standouts and sign their names to them. Hand-picked themed collections mean there is always something good to solve next.
EVERYONE ELSE'S OBSESSIONS
Publish your puzzle and watch other solvers take it on. Browse fresh grids from real people — a Hall of Fame for the greats, a Fresh Ink lane for the newest. Lighthouse keeping. Tokyo ramen shops. Competitive dog grooming. Somebody made every one of them.
BADGES AND TITLES WORTH WEARING
Climb completion, streak, and creator ladders. Unlock bronze through platinum badges, some of them hidden until you trip over one. Clear a themed bundle and it hands you a title for your profile.
HELP WHEN YOU WANT IT
Reveal a single letter, check a word, or take a small gamble for a bigger reveal. Help is there the moment you ask for it, and never forced on you.
BUILT FOR IPHONE
A fast, native app with a custom keyboard and a grid designed for one-handed solving on the train. No account and no sign-up to start, and your progress backs up privately to your own iCloud.
CROSSIQ PRO — OPTIONAL
• Unlimited hints, so one stubborn clue never ends a puzzle
