### 4/5 — Great, also, room for improvement!

*2026-08-25, version 7.7.6*

I love how many pieces you can play with, the background color and brightness options 😁 

My biggest complaint is that there’s no option to switch the side the pieces tray is. Left handed individuals would be more inclined to play if that option was available. I’m working on being more ambidextrous myself and have often lamented the lack of it. 

Do you think we could get larger puzzle options at some point? I love that we can get up to 1400 puzzle pieces and would love even more difficult ones! 

Overall, great find. Worth it to pay for no ads in my opinion.

### 2/5 — Poor help

*2024-11-11, version 7.6.7*

Had this for years, now it’s just stuck I’ve added new puzzles but not showing and won’t open, just shows completed ones

### 4/5 — Love but 30 Second Ads?

*2024-05-13, version 7.6.4*

This is the best jigsaw puzzle I’ve found and I’m totally cool with the 5 second ads. 30 seconds is just too long. How about an option to pay a minimal amount to get rid of them?

### 3/5 — pretty good but…

*2024-02-23, version 7.6.4*

i was doing a 1400 piece puzzle, and two pieces got stuck to the background. i can’t move them around, can’t put it back into the tray either. i’m gonna be soooo mad if the puzzle can’t be completed due to those two pieces glitching out 😤😠

### 4/5 — Needs better background colors

*2024-01-07, version 7.6.4*

I really enjoy doing these puzzles, but quite often I find that I cannot find a suitable background color on which to work.  So for this reason, I think this app needs some improvement.

### 3/5 — Missing pieces

*2023-02-12, version 7.5.5*

I just worked two different puzzles.    One had two missing pieces and the other had one.     These are puzzles from my library and 1400 pieces each    VERY unhappy about this    FIX THIS NOW!!!!!!

### 2/5 — Used to be Excellent

*2022-04-08, version 7.3.9*

Decline in functionality since I wrote this review. Ads are right next to the tray of pieces, and it's hard to avoid clicking an ad when trying to drag in a piece. That often takes you out of the game, and when you go back in it's messed up, sometimes having lost pieces or even wiping everything out. Very frustrating. Just lost everything when I had only 7 pieces of 260 left to place. It's a shame because the puzzles themselves are excellent, but I'm looking for a new app. The best jigsaws out there. The number of difficulty options and of different puzzles make this exceptional. Have never encountered a bug or a boring puzzle. Kudos to the developers.

### 1/5 — Very Disappointed!

*2022-04-03, version 7.3.8*

I have used this app for years and it was great!  Now, you’ve changed it and I have lost all the weekly puzzles I had saved!  The design is too simplistic and boring.  I wish I could go back to before you updated!  😤

### 1/5 — Jigsaw puzzle

*2022-04-02, version 7.3.8*

Je n’aime pas non plus la nouvelle version tout ce que j’aime c’est les fonds d’écran. Les puzzles débarquent facilement quand on bouge l’endroit où elles sont à droite. Même le nouveaux bruit quand on insert une pièce dans une autre me dérange. Je jouais très très souvent avec cette app mais là je ne sais plus…

### 1/5 — Destroyed!

*2022-03-31, version 7.3.8*

New update has absolutely ruined this, it is now almost unusable and no longer pleasant to play 🤬

### 1/5 — SM

*2022-03-30, version 7.3.8*

This used to be a brilliant app for jigsaw puzzlers but since the changes have been made it is annoying and unresponsive. Please reinstate the old version

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2022-03-30, version 7.3.8*

Not happy with the new update can I have the old one back please .

### 1/5 — Update made it less enjoyable

*2022-03-28, version 7.3.8*

I’ve been doing puzzles on the app for years and always really liked it.  It was nice to see an update to the way it looks until I started to do a puzzle.  The pieces don’t rotate as easily as they did - when you tap them they don’t rotate 90 degrees at a time, they seem to randomly jump around.  The ‘shadow’ on each piece is distracting. And all of the edge pieces are now grouped together, which makes it a bit too easy.  Overall, I’d really like to return to the older version but when I click the link on their webpage, it just goes to the current updated version.

### 1/5 — Clumsy upgrade

*2022-03-24, version 7.3.8*

Was my very favorite game app. The upgrade is awful, the pieces are difficult to move around, hate the sound effects. I don’t want to choose the number of pieces each time, just let me set it. One improvement is that it is now easier to remove a group when done. Otherwise the whole thing is much less pleasant to use, not relaxing at all. And I don’t need a little bell chime with every correct piece! Ugh.

### 1/5 — Old version was great, this new version is HORRIBLE

*2022-03-24, version 7.3.7*

I have been playing this puzzle app for a few years. Recently, everything changed. Now it is very slow to load. Now it’s loaded with ads but the old one didn’t have ads. Playing the game is no longer enjoyable.

### 1/5 — Update has ruined this

*2022-03-22, version 7.3.7*

Why did they have to change this? It worked well before, now it’s hopeless. Sorry I’m not using this any more.

### 2/5 — jigsaw puzzle plus

*2022-03-22, version 7.3.7*

Je n aime pas du tout la nouvelle version…les pièces sont trop mobiles et difficiles à fixer. 
Est ce possible de revenir à celle qui était beaucoup plus détaillée et plus facile à contrôler. 
Merci

### 1/5 — Awful

*2022-03-21, version 7.3.7*

This was a really good jigsaw puzzle that I’ve used for a long time until this latest version it’s made it the worst I’ve ever done who ever thought this was an improvement need to go back to the drawing board I’ve deleted it and won’t use it again

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Malicious advert

*2026-06-15, version 7.7.6*

An advert for a ‘PDF reader’ has totally blocked my jigsaw plus app. I have used your app for years and have never encountered this situation before. This is extremely frustrating and disappointing, please sort it out.

### 1/5 — Impassable Ad problem

*2026-06-15, version 7.7.6*

For a long time I have really enjoyed the great puzzles on this app until recently when I can’t get past an ad asking me to update my PDF file. I cannot get rid of it whatever I do so it won’t let me into the game. Please sort it out otherwise your puzzle game will become unusable.

### 1/5 — Great app spoiled by impassable ads

*2026-05-19, version 7.7.6*

I’ve been using this for many months and, for most of the time, the ads have not been a problem. However, and not for the first time, for the past 24 hours I’ve been unable to get past a ******* Candy Crush ad and it’s driving me crazy. Clicking on the “X” to leave the ad has no effect. The only way out is to close the app and try again. After a dozen or more tries I was driven to distraction and so am now writing this bad review. Get these ads sorted!

### 1/5 — Does not download new puzzles in ipados 26

*2025-09-17, version 7.7.5*

Attempted to download new puzzles. Download puzzles fail in ipados26

### 1/5 — Update made this unusable

*2025-04-28, version 7.7.5*

I used to be able to download puzzle packs, but ever since the updates there’s no option for it anymore.. I tried reporting the problem but it directs you to a website of the developer that’s not even active.

### 1/5 — Ads

*2025-02-21, version 7.7.5*

Unable to open the app to finish a puzzle, ads pop up and no way to exit , now it’s frozen!  So annoyed! Have been doing puzzles on here for years this is the first time I can’t get out of a blank screen! Thanks to Google ads!

### 1/5 — Crappy app

*2024-07-28, version 7.6.7*

Can’t get new puzzles from the puzzle store. It just keeps buffering and nothing comes up.

### 1/5 — Hate the update

*2022-10-29, version 7.5.4*

This was a great puzzle game but now the pieces just don’t flow like they used to. I will be deleting unless there is a way of backing up the old version.

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2022-09-10, version 7.5.0*

Just had another look to see if the developers have acknowledged the reviews. Waste of time. No improvement on the game itself, still as awful following the update and no response from developers to any comments.

### 1/5 — Lost puzzles

*2022-04-09, version 7.3.9*

I loved this app it was my favourite, but when it automatically updated I lost all my saved puzzles, and they have changed the layout which I hate !

### 5/5 — Five stars (revised from previous review of four)

*2023-04-02, version 7.5.5*

I like the Jigsaw Puzzle Plus upgrade in 2022. I like having all of the edge pieces at the top of the tray. But, has there been a tweak to put some on the bottom as well? I like seeing all of the puzzles within a category all at once. I’m glad I was able to get back to no ads since I had already purchased the app years ago. I love the variety of puzzles selections! I like the option to change the background color of the puzzle field. So, in spite of a few glitches with the upgrade that I experienced during the first day or so after the upgrade, I’m very pleased with the app. I play it on an iPad exclusively, btw. The only thing I would recommend is that there should be instructions on the options or a guide to how to navigate the app. For some people, it may be frustrating getting into or out of a puzzle, for example. Or, finding where the sound or flash options are. Thank you!

Update on April 1, 2023: I’m still enjoying Jigsaw Puzzle Plus. I have two requests, though. Is it possible to have captions on the photos? Also, is it possible to add a feature where a user can send a photo of the puzzle they just finished to someone and also to tweet it, too?

### 5/5 — Now Perfect

*2022-03-20, version 7.3.7*

I figured out the new interface and discovered where everything is and I’m pleased to say this is now the perfect puzzle app. I recommend purchasing the paid version. It’s seamless and so nice without the ads.

### 5/5 — Frustration

*2022-03-19, version 7.3.7*

I have enjoyed this app for several years but the most recent up date is frustrating. The pieces seem to float before being fixed in place, making them quite difficult to control. The overall size of the picture is also smaller on the screen which I don’t appreciate

### 5/5 — A&SLANZ

*2021-11-30, version 3.3.27*

Great jigsaw easy to do plenty puzzles to choose from and new puzzles regularly. Don't need a large table to do puzzles on and can't loose pieces. Been doing these for years.

### 5/5 — The Best!

*2021-08-18, version 3.3.27*

This puzzle is absolutely wonderful. Great subject matter and easy to work.   So glad I found it. Hard to decide what one to do next.

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-07-06, version 3.3.27*

Can’t say anymore.

### 5/5 — Great grandfather

*2021-01-27, version 3.3.27*

The best puzzle game ever, I am very pleased with this game.  thanks .

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2020-11-12, version 3.3.27*

I think I'm actually addicted to puzzles😀

### 5/5 — Worked well now not useable at all.

*2020-10-09, version 3.3.27*

App has worked for a long while and now it cashes and goes straight back to my main tablet home screen.

This app was very benificial to my mental well-being, and good when I needed to calm down but sadly in the last few weeks it’s completely not useable. Once making the edges within about 10-20 pieces placed in jigsaw it crashes.
