## What is Crossweek?

A new crossword every day, and a new theme every week.

Every week of the year has its own theme, from sea charts and jazz clubs to seed packets and ski lifts. All seven puzzles draw their answers from it, and the whole week arrives as a printed object from that world: a cinema ticket, a library card, an airmail letter, a taped-up gig flyer, a farmer's almanac.

Solve the day and the object takes the mark. A ticket gets punched, a postcard gets postmarked, a report card gets an A. Puzzles grow through the week, from a quick Monday to a big Sunday grid.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.4 — 2026-10-23

- Playable back-issues in the Drawer: open any kept week or recent back-issue to solve or finish missed days, plus three ready-to-play recent weeks right on the desk.
- Share a single day’s solve card (spoiler-free grid silhouette, stamp, time and streak) or your full week sheet, complete with an App Store link.
- Smoother crossword typing: revealed squares lock against accidental edits, completing the tail of a word wraps to earlier blank squares, and an optional morning reminder keeps streaks alive.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-10-14

Fixes repeated answers across a week. New puzzles use each answer once per week, with at least two full intervening weeks before it can return.

Expanded all weekly word banks for more variety. Puzzles you have already started keep their original grids and saved letters.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-10-12

Hollow, the Halloween week, begins Monday 26 October. Seven puzzles with answers like RAVEN, LANTERN and CRYPT, printed as a poster. Don't look behind you.

Also new in 1.0.2:
- A Write a review row on the Desk menu opens the App Store review page.
- After you have solved a few puzzles, Crossweek may ask for a rating through Apple's standard prompt. It appears at most once per version, and only after you close a solve sheet, never mid-puzzle.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-10-09

Play on 53 individually illustrated crossword boards: a greenhouse bench, a cinema reel, a museum frame, a workshop drawing and a whole year of other worlds. Each daily layout places its artwork around the letters.

Every week also has its own little keepsake to inspect, with a note from its world.

Open the new Desk menu for your drawer, bound stamp book, illustrated guide, and sound and touch preferences. Puzzle Help makes checking and revealing clearer.

Paper settles onto the table, ink reveals, and drawings lift when touched. Animations follow Reduce Motion.

Your existing puzzles, progress, streaks and purchases carry forward.

### 1.0 — 2026-10-09

No release notes.
