All is good with my device and my internet connections however, still crap. ### 1/5 — What happened to this app *2018-11-17, version 2.3* This used to be a great app with many helpful suggestions. Then it got updated and it often had no suggestions. Then it got updated again and now it won’t answer at all!!

I hope you will fix this app to work again! ### 2/5 — Not good *2026-02-14, version 2.7* Absolutely gone to pot. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-07-24, version 2.7* Best crossword App ever ### 5/5 — Excellent *2026-05-07, version 2.7* This is the best app for solving clues. ### 5/5 — Solver *2026-01-26, version 2.7* Quick & easy way to finish a difficult cross word puzzle. ### 5/5 — Winter nights *2026-01-20, version 2.7* Its always fun to watch the solution come up on this app always complete always exact ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2025-12-21, version 2.7* Has every crossword clue you could possibly need!
