User reviews

Genuinely awesome

This game is fantastic. You can pay for a subscription for more material, but it’s a perfectly satisfying daily mini for free. They’re constantly developing new aspects for the game and they’re super easy to contact in case you come across any bugs or issues. The creators are awesome, the game is amazing, and it’s 100% worth the download. Take it from someone who NEVER takes the time to write reviews, this game rocks.

Response from developer

This made our day. Thank you for being an active user of Crossword Chef. :)

Forced picture upload

Latest update forced me to input a name and upload a profile pic from my photos. No way to bypass that. I uninstalled the app.

Response from developer

Hello Jeff. We're working on simplifying this flow (auto avatars etc) but we did want to form a community where we can show leaderboards for folks in a meaningful way. Note that you can upload a picture of your pet or your favorite plant if you want. :) Hope to see you again.

Forces you to Sign in with Apple Or Google

I was excited to try out this crossword app because it has good reviews and people seem genuinely happy with it. I don’t need my identity tracked by a crossword puzzle app, though. 1 star for you.

Response from developer

Hello CGruendell. Thanks for taking the time to write a review. We use Google and Apple sign-ins so we can enable friend-to-friend play, mobile-web sync, and offer you deep comparative analytics on your game play that are otherwise impossible without sign in. Please note that you can also sign-in "anonymously" with Apple by checking the "don't reveal my identity" option.
