Fair and enjoyable crossword puzzler. British English
The best UK English crossword puzzler of the few that seemed worth trying on the App Store (I did buy a few others and they were ok but the clues and lack of enough overlapping words made simple answers sometimes hard to work out). I have been using it for some years on a few different iOS devices and it has received appropriate updates and remained reliable.
There are occasional clues or answers which are a bit British-centric, but not often enough to be a problem.
My two complaints are:
1) there are no new puzzles to buy when you finish them.
2) you can’t adjust the crossword size to make it fit on the screen despite the high resolution iPad screen. Using an Apple Pencil would easily make even the largest puzzles usable despite being shrunk to fit the screen.

It’s ok. Could be better
This is ok to pass time. But the spelling errors in some of these answers is ridiculous.
Crossword.
Keep them coming, I enjoy them very much. Some times you have to think, great, I worry that you will disappear, that would be sad..
Good but has flaws
This is a good crossword with an easy and helpful design but has a few flaws. Some of the words are spelled incorrectly and a few of the clues too! For example. Capital city of New South Wales is not Sidney, it’s Sydney! The clues are too Euro centric too...too many references to lakes, towns and colloquial British and European places. Also I hate the pathetic clues likes like a sound of disgust: hoot or boo or tush...pathetic clues and answers. There’s no reason to include Hebrew,Greek and Latin words and letters either...all irrelevant information that only scholars would know. Apart from these faults, it’s great and I recommend it.

There are occasional clues or answers which are a bit British-centric, but not often enough to be a problem except on one of the 2 medium difficulty puzzle sizes.
My only complaint would be that you can’t adjust the crossword size to make it fit on the screen without having to drag the screen around on the larger more difficult puzzles. This is despite the iPad screen resolution being easily enough to still display everything clearly. Using an Apple Pencil would easily make even the largest puzzles usable despite being shrunk to fit the screen.

Happy
Enjoy playing this version of crosswords, I like the fact that there are different levels that you can ‘dip in and out’ of.
If I one little complaint it would be the American spelling of some words, however, it isn’t something that would stop me playing the in any way, shape or form.
Thank you

Thank you
Fun app
I like all squares to be a word answer but still love it now that I am used to it
Wonderful Game; but.......
The only complaint is that this is geared to the British English for the most part. Would appreciate one using USA enlist words and spellings. Definitely not boring and challenges your vocabulary, spelling, and trivia knowledge. I am senior and want to keep my mind active. Thank you to the developers.

Terrific
Love the British words and spelling. Hours of fun. Learning words that I have never used and will never use.
Errors
I am constantly surprised by the mistakes in Crosswords Plus. People do not expect to see errors, and I may say on a regular basis, in crosswords for which they have paid. The most recent error I came across was puzzle 36 in the difficult category, the clue was “Dutch pottery” and your answer was “delf”. That is wrong, the correct answer is “delft”, that is with a “t” on the end! Kindly ensure that your crosswords are error free before asking people to pay. Thank you.

I used to love this app, but......
I have the paid version, and I used to do a crossword every day. Now, however, under iOS 11, the app opens but I just get a blank screen - no crossword. I’ve tried re-booting the iPad but no joy.
Great
I love crosswords and I love these. Sometimes I lose my puzzles for months due to technical problems I suppose. All in all I like Dell better than any other! Keep up the good work.
Addictive and Habit forming
I really love the format of this crossword. I find myself not wanting to stop playing. Very addictive.
Save your money
The app doesn't work properly. I did two puzzles and now it won't move on to another puzzle and just takes me back to the puzzle already completed. Don't waste your money until they bother fixing app
Excellent crosswords
Really enjoy the game and its features.
Love it
I've been playing this for a few years now and absolutely love it. Simple layout, uncluttered and big letters. You can buy 1200 puzzles for a few pounds. Excellent value for money!
Love it
I really enjoy playing the game. Some of the definitions are dubious. I like being able to get help from one letter or mark errors .
Arrow crossword
I love the puzzles. Lots of fun and gets you to exercise your brain
Very Good
I love this app and it is quite addictive. My criticism is that only the easy puzzles fits on my iPad screen, the others have to be scrolled up and down. Also some of the spellings are rather odd: despite this I really enjoy playing it and am dreading getting to the end of all the puzzles.
