Recently, since last update Tasty Treats ad locks up and I have to close the app to get back to a new puzzle. ### 3/5 — Decent *2026-08-11, version 1.7.5* Good game lots of puzzles and challenging, bit of ads easier and faster just to close the app and reopen instead of waiting for ad to finish and am not paying $50 for no ads 🤣 other then that good game and app. ### 4/5 — $35 ad free is completely unthinkable *2026-08-11, version 1.7.5* Feels like a joke. The app itself is fine but the greed is beyond comprehension. ### 3/5 — Decent *2026-08-10, version 1.7.5* Decent puzzles, not enough variety in writers. Same 10 people, some of whom aren't very interesting. They use the same words repetitively. ### 2/5 — Puzzles can't load *2026-07-22, version 1.7.5* $35 and half the puzzles on the last set were unable to load, with a message to contact the help desk. Nope. ### 4/5 — Pretty good, very british *2026-07-18, version 1.7.5* I'm an american so some of the questions about british culture I can't really answer, since I don't know them! Ofc I like expanding myself but it's a little annoying that I basically have no chance of knowing without just seeing it :P There's not really a fix for this but it's more of a warning to other americans I guess lol! If you watch a lot of british TV or something like that you'll probably have a better time :^) ### 2/5 — weird shaped puzzle *2026-07-07, version 1.7.5* I’ve been playing this for a while and it’s been perfectly fine, pretty fun! until I moved on to a new section and one of the “midi” puzzles was shaped like a $w@st1ka !!! I will be deleting this game if this isn’t taken down! ### 4/5 — Mostly great! *2026-06-24, version 1.7.5* It’s great, super easy to navigate and challenging puzzles. However, on Vol 3 of the easy puzzles, the hint says pirouette and the answer is spin, when it should really be turn because that’s what is considered correct in the dance world. Other than that, it’s fantastic! ### 3/5 — Used to be 5 star *2026-06-19, version 1.7.5* I used to love this app but when I switched to a new phone, the amount of crosswords has decreased massively and my usual constructor only has one crossword and before they had loads. Please change this back. ### 5/5 — my fave app *2026-06-18, version 1.7.5* i have the paid version of this app and it’s the best thing for winding down after a long day or killing time. the puzzles are challenging and fun. i’ve found myself becoming fans of certain puzzle makers as well. you know what else i love about this app? it doesn’t hide the clock on your phone. i hate that other games do that! ### 5/5 — Outstanding *2026-06-10, version 1.7.4* No matter where you are in your crossword ability, there is plenty here to stretch your imagination! ### 2/5 — Insidious ads to get access to devices is just wrong *2026-06-07, version 1.7.5* Kind of enjoyed the Hard puzzles and tolerated the ads until there was an “ad” that said my device was hacked and the only way to “fix” it was to download a clean up app. Could only get back to puzzles by closing the xword app and reopening it. This “ad” now shows up every time after a puzzle. So I am done with this app. And I suspect that the offer of paying $49.99 for “lifetime” access is an out and out lie. ### 5/5 — I made a volcano *2026-06-02, version 1.7.4* Yay ### 5/5 — Fun App *2026-06-01, version 1.7.4* Fun game. It's got a decent user interface and fun puzzles. I just wish their was an easier way to jump to the beginning off three current horizontal or vertical word, in case of a typo. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Medium is a joke *2026-08-03, version 1.7.5* More than half your creators make the medium puzzles ridiculously hard while the easy ones are for retards. ### 1/5 — Stupid Clues *2026-07-22, version 1.7.5* A. Nicolle should not be allowed to submit any more puzzle packs. Their clues are ridiculously STUPID (WAY too cryptic and esoteric)!!! Also, WAY TOO MANY NEW PUZZLE PACKS BEING ADDED!!!!!!!! 10 new puzzle packs in one day???? KNOCK IT OFF!!!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Used to like *2026-07-09, version 1.7.5* I quit playing this one because the ads always lock up or last forever. They used to work right, play through and then move on. ### 1/5 — Ads block letters *2026-07-08, version 1.7.5* Great app until banner blocked letters to make it unplayable ### 1/5 — Stupid Clues *2026-06-02, version 1.7.4* A. Nicolle should not be allowed to submit any more puzzle packs. Their clues are ridiculously STUPID (WAY too cryptic and esoteric)!!! Also, WAY TOO MANY NEW PUZZLE PACKS BEING ADDED!!!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Please stop the woke messaging *2026-05-31, version 1.7.4* Please develop a screen function to block authors with a cause. I just don’t want to be indoctrinated by puzzles. I really like the game. I’ve solved a few hundred. I pay by watching the ads. But now I have ten authors I no longer use, ie, his and his gift registry and black activist names. I can’t remember who not to pick when I search for a new pack. I’m not whining. It’s a free country. You do you. Just don’t teach me to be you. I’m not a phobe. I just want to solve puzzles without broadening myself. Thank you if you can help. ### 1/5 — Stupid Clues *2026-05-27, version 1.7.4* A. Nicolle should not be allowed to submit any more puzzle packs. Their clues are ridiculously STUPID (WAY too cryptic and esoteric)!!! ### 1/5 — Horrible clues *2026-05-19, version 1.7.4* Most of them are really bad clues you kind of shake your head at how they came up with that kind of a clue to get the answer needed most of them just make absolutely no sense. ### 1/5 — Looong ads *2026-05-13, version 1.7.4* 1-2 minute ads after completing every puzzle. I’m deleting. ### 1/5 — No stars *2026-05-05, version 1.7.4* Ai generated bs. Don’t waste your money ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great to pass the time *2026-08-28, version 1.7.5* Airplane fun ### 5/5 — Love these puzzles *2026-08-21, version 1.7.5* I like the medium puzzles because they are just tough enough to make me think but not so hard that I have to admit defeat. ### 5/5 — Really great interface, so easy and pleasant to use *2026-08-19, version 1.7.5* This is one of the finest interfaces I have ever worked with, and the puzzles are really good quality and some are difficult enough to make them fun. Can also be played off-line with no ads. ### 5/5 — For Americans only *2026-08-18, version 1.7.5* This is a great app that can be used offline. Great puzzles but I have one criticism, too many clues relating to Perhaps it is meant only for people from USA, if that’s the case it is worth 5 stars. ### 5/5 — relatively ad free, the ones there are aren't intrusive *2026-07-29, version 1.7.5* any ads that appear are only before or after you start a game, and the games can take quite a bit but your mileage may vary depending on how good you are at these. the ads are also somewhat uncommon and usually short and skippable which is a real treat for a free game, there's an option to pay 35 dollars for ad-free gameplay which is a somewhat large amount for a phone game, but understandable as there's not much you can monetize here, which is really charming. it's very simple and unobtrusive, with a huge amount of puzzles of varying difficulties to play, 5/5. ### 5/5 — Crossword *2026-07-28, version 1.7.5* I love crossword! I love how it challenges you to think and you also learn from it! It’s also a fun way to spend the afternoon! ### 5/5 — Crossword Puzzle Tefstone *2026-07-14, version 1.7.5* I’ve enjoyed this app for the last five years. It’s very enjoyable. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2026-07-04, version 1.6.9* I absolutely love the app,I don’t have great vision so it is hard doing them in books, this is the perfect game ### 5/5 — Quick to Play. Clever Clues *2026-07-03, version 1.7.5* Makes it easy to find where the answers go. Hard enough to make you chuckle but not intent on stumping you completely. Everything is geared toward Relaxing mind exercise. Very satisfied ### 5/5 — high-quality puzzles *2026-06-18, version 1.7.5* Quality puzzles that are actually a good level of difficulty. Very nice interface with a good nighttime presentation. Can also be played off-line with no ads. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
