Drowning in uncontrollable ads

It's drowning in ads. Every touch on the screen triggers a new full screen ad that needs to be dismissed only after it plays. The avalanche of ads have made this app not even useful for its original purpose.

Galaxy user

This software is very good when I get stuck for a word and I can look at Thesaurus, particularly looking at option on the word length. The one thing that is annoying is when a word is not found with a definition and therefore doesn’t show up in the Thesaurus. I still, however appreciate the help overall that Crossword Helper provides.

No ad-free version?

Love the app, very helpful, however sick of how often the ads pop up. Clicked in app on “get ad free version” as I’ve used it enough to want it, but just directs to App Store page without any option to actually buy an ad free version which is not only frustrating but very misleading. Would rate much higher if it actually delivered what it advertised.

Too many ads

Way too many ads, some 30 seconds long. I’ll find another.
