It would be great if it gave you an option to either continue or start new. ### 4/5 — Plays a fairly good game *2025-09-27, version 2.3* Plays a fair game at the highest level. ### 5/5 — Luv It *2025-09-26, version 2.3* Hours of endless fun ### 5/5 — Love hearts *2025-09-24, version 2.3* Needs less ads ### 5/5 — Best hearts so far *2025-09-21, version 2.3* Out of many other hearts apps, this one has an add every 3 hands, not terrible, thanks for making a game that’s not too revenue hungry ### 5/5 — Peoples *2025-09-14, version 2.3* How do we play with real peoples ### 4/5 — It would be nice if… *2025-08-22* Plays a fair game at the highest level. Points scored should keep track of your points accumulated during the game. In other words, lower is better just as in the game. **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. The score sheet does keep track of your points accumulated during the game, and lower is better. Touch the button labelled "Scores / Stats" to see this.

Thanks and enjoy! ### 4/5 — Great app but 1 ad causes app to freeze *2025-08-20, version 2.3* The red background ad that starts w/ pics of a bunch of fighters and the command “pic a fighter” causes this app to freeze ### 3/5 — Ads *2025-08-17, version 2.3* Way too many ads that you are forced to watch ### 5/5 — Easy *2025-08-05, version 2.3* Easy to play. Fun game. Win percentage set. Maybe be better with multiple skill levels ? ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2026-08-15, version 2.4* I had a great hearts game with no ads before I transitioned into a new IPAD. Now I get these pesky ads even in the middle of my game and no where in the app can I find a place to stop ads. I a getting ready to delete game and try another vendor. ### 1/5 — Aggressively pushes other game downloads *2026-07-16, version 2.4* Worked fine until in the middle of a game it blocked me to flash up an ad that told me download another of their games. It would not let me bypass. Bye, bye, “Hearts Card Game.” You won’t be missed. ### 1/5 — Stuck on an advertisement can only play one hand *2026-04-30, version 2.4* Fix your app ### 1/5 — Too many ads *2026-02-23, version 2.3* Just trying to find a hearts game without ads all the time. ### 1/5 — Fake virus ads *2026-01-17, version 2.3* Recently some of its ads have been fake virus warnings designed to trap the ignorant. Not good that they allow this type of advertising. ### 1/5 — Fun game, really offensive ads *2026-01-12, version 2.3* I enjoyed this game for two days until the ads started showing women being sexually assaulted. Extremely offensive!! I am not going to use this app again. ### 1/5 — Scam Ads *2025-12-11, version 2.3* Lately the ads appearing are scam alerts that provide a link to “fix” the problem. ### 1/5 — Ads are very intrusive. *2025-08-14, version 2.3* There is currently a State Farm ad that you cannot close. You have to close down the app and lose scores to continue to play. ### 1/5 — Another bot cheat “game” *2024-11-28, version 2.2* Of the many cheat moves used in this game, the most obvious is East having a lower card in the final play than you, so you get nailed with the queen or a heart. Virtually every time the bot game is losing this happens. Despite what the developers say, none use the random principle: far too challenging for them. ### 1/5 — Boring. *2024-06-06, version 2.2* You’re playing the same robot that “fixes” the deal. It becomes one set-up after another. You’re the mark. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great game! *2026-08-15, version 2.4* Tricky but not impossible ### 5/5 — Choose Your Difficulty Level *2026-05-29, version 2.4* I like this version of hearts because it allows you to choose the level of difficulty of winning. Other Hearts apps that I’ve tried seem to be programmed at the maximum level of difficulty, and there is a suspicion that they know all the cards so they can rig things for them to almost always win. With this hearts app you can select the level of difficulty, and it seems to be more fair. The game is free, but the full page ads are quite annoying; running for a considerable length of time. So I paid the developers reasonable fee for removal of the full page ads. You can also pay to remove the banner ads at the bottom, but I decided they’re not obnoxious so I haven’t done that. ### 5/5 — Hearts *2026-05-23, version 2.4* Challenging and so much fun ### 5/5 — Good Experience *2026-04-26, version 2.4* A great experience ### 5/5 — Hearts *2026-01-02, version 2.3* Love it…frustrating, challenging, enjoyable,, ### 5/5 — Great game, however…… *2025-10-31, version 2.3* I like this game however I’m spending far too much time playing. Tried the pay for add free version but it wouldn’t let me. ### 5/5 — Syl *2025-10-22, version 2.3* This is a great game. You can play offline. Yes there are adds but they are not long and loud. Respectful company Thank you ### 5/5 — Love this game *2025-10-18, version 2.3* Best card game on internet ### 5/5 — Hearts for Hearts Players *2025-10-15, version 2.3* Below is a post I made a couple of years ago, using my iPad mini. Been awaiting this “new” iPhone version, here at last! It’s clearly the same the game with the layout adjusted for the smaller screen. It’s a bit “squeezed,” but I’m SO glad they created this version which I can now play from anywhere. It would have been great to connect both formats thru a cloud, but no complaints! That would probably be a tech nightmare anyway. One question, are the stats combined from both devices? It seems so, as would be expected. Still the best Hearts app out there! ORIGINAL POST…….. This hearts game is by far the best available for serious Hearts fans. The layout is elegant (no crazy graphics, meaningfully customizable, clean and easy to navigate). Most importantly, the best programming strategy I've seen in Hearts…ever. Is there room for improvement? After having played thousands of games over several years, yes. But they don't take away from the value of this smartly produced game as it is. I will submit my suggestions for potential improvements directly. I like that the publisher is always looking to improve the game, but is cautious not to add silly graphics and game features. If you’re a Hearts fan…this is the app to have. Probably the top request on my list will be to have an iPhone version, and have both versions synced so I can jump back and forth from my iPad. A challenging upgrade, I'm sure. Also adding the split screen feature might be helpful…converting to a vertical (iPhone) layout when using with other apps in landscape view. Kudos to the publisher for his or her thoughtful development of this app. ### 5/5 — J’adore ce jeu *2025-10-14, version 2.3* J’aime le design et les informations concernant l’avancée du jeu. Les publicités sont courtes en général et on peut couper le son. C’est la meilleure application de la dame de pique à mon avis. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
