### 4/5 — Pretty nice…

*2026-08-28, version 23*

The puzzles are very relaxing and simple, but you can’t exactly choose which theme you want to puzzles to be. It’s also a bit confusing with the choosing puzzles you can also choose the difficulty.

### 4/5 — Relaxing

*2026-08-13, version 23*

More of these puzzles please

### 4/5 — Unexpectedly shuts down

*2026-08-03, version 23*

This app is the best one I’ve found for puzzles. It’s shortfall is that it I will come back to play it, and it has closed. I sort my pieces and, when it shuts down, I have to resort them. Not a big deal, but rather annoying.

### 4/5 — Addictively fun

*2026-06-15, version 23*

There are many colorful puzzles, but when it’s so addictive, there needs to be more puzzles to choose from.

### 5/5 — Casse-tête

*2026-02-09, version 23*

Beaucoup de choix,couleurs agréables

### 2/5 — I like some of the options but……

*2025-12-07, version 23*

I like difficult pattern puzzles with many pieces and rotation.  I also like puzzles that are responsive and the pieces move immediately as I slide them into position.  Not after several touches or moving 5 inches away from my finger and then I have to look for where it is.  I would give it 1 star except that it allows me to play the puzzle I want to play and not just the next in line.  I’m removing it from my iPad because I spent more time trying to get pieces to move and rotate than actually assembling the puzzle.

### 5/5 — There are absolutely no ads 😍😍

*2025-10-22, version 23*

So amazing

### 5/5 — Great photos and paintings

*2025-09-23, version 23*

Live the flexibility of choosing how much challenge to complete

### 5/5 — Majestic nature 2

*2025-09-13, version 23*

Wicked easy to do- options numerous

### 5/5 — The best jigsaw app…..ever.

*2025-09-08, version 23*

Very enjoyable jigsaw app, great that it’s add free and 14,000 to choose from Wow. I like that it has a ranking table too.

### 5/5 — Finally! A Good Jigsaw Puzzle App!

*2025-08-27, version 23*

I deleted my fav jigsaw puzzle app when I had to sit through two long ads just to start my puzzle. 
After that, I downloaded over 13 apps, but each was not working for me due to several reasons.  
The JS Ultimate app was my last try and Bingo! 
No ads. 
Lots of puzzles to choose from. 
It is in landscape mode, so there’s more screen space. And I know I mentioned it already, but… NO ADS! WOW!  I’m happy as a clam! Way to go dev team! You nailed it!

### 5/5 — Best jigsaw available! I’ve played for years!

*2025-08-26, version 23*

I’ve played them all. This is the only one I’ve kept. I’ve played for a couple of years now. The ads only run at the bottom. You NEVER have to watch an ad to play any part of the app. The selection is out of this world. There is something for everyone! Just download it. 100% free all the time!

### 5/5 — Jigsaws for hours

*2025-08-22, version 23*

Love the down loads so I can play off line.  Keeps me occupied for hours, thank you. 🌸🤗

### 5/5 — Best puzzle EVER

*2025-07-28, version 23*

I have a lot of puzzle apps but this one is the best. I love the categories. And there are no ads.

### 5/5 — Best puzzle app and it’s free.

*2025-07-11, version 23*

I’ve played this puzzle for years and absolutely love that you can custom fit the difficulty to your playing pleasure. I have had some recent issues with puzzles not loading, but that seems to have been resolved. My wifi? Ad changes? Glitch? Not sure what it was, but everything is back to the high standards that I’ve seen over the years.

### 5/5 — THE BEST GAME EVER ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

*2025-07-01, version 23*

I have done about 3 p

### 4/5 — Very good

*2025-06-17, version 23*

So I love jigsaws. I play on an iPad Pro. The best jigsaw app I have used was the Ravensburger Jigsaw App. They messed up their customer base somehow.  When I got a new iPad I couldn’t access the app anymore. 

I have tried a number of jigsaw apps since. Not a fan of many of them. 

This app is very good. It needs several options which would enhance the player experience. 

1. The ability to zoom into different parts of the puzzle to complete sections you have identified. 
2. Having seperate ‘folders’ to be able to add the pieces you choose into. Then to be able to empty a particular folder into your puzzle area. And to have an option to add all pieces that are not attached into a particular bucket. 
3. An option to pay a couple of dollars to remove ads. Some of us will never click on an ad. They are wasted on us. Not sure how revenue is generated from ads but being able to remove them for a small payment would be great. 

I want to thank you for a great, free app.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — What a shame

*2026-06-03, version 23*

You have some beautiful puzzles. Nice selection.   But for a person to work the puzzle it’s darn near impossible.    The pieces are way too small and difficult to move to place it.   Why is the board to work it on a negative of the puzzle. One does not need that, need a blank slate so one can see the pieces PLAINLY.    So disappointed.

### 1/5 — Contains Ads!

*2025-09-16, version 23*

This app contains ads placed in such a way that the user accidentally taps or clicks on them.  I do not appreciate the trickery here - there should be a note on this app posting that the app contains ads.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-07-24, version 23*

None of the images load and puzzles don’t open. Very small piece count and landscape mode only.

### 1/5 — App issues

*2025-06-11, version 23*

I couldn’t even open the app, but to be fare my iPad is pretty old and does not except certain updates. My iPad excepted this app and downloaded it fun but if I open the app it immediately shuts off and leaves me back at the home page. My iPad was made in 2020 during covid. Not that old but this app still doesn’t work.

### 1/5 — Deceptive description

*2024-09-01, version 23*

I would rather have known upfront that I was going to be receiving Google ads… so I would not have downloaded this app…
Gives you no choice to opt out of Google ads

### 1/5 — It would be ok if you could download puzzles.

*2024-07-12, version 23*

I have had this app for several months and at the beginning it would not down load puzzles occasionally. Now about every other puzzle I try to download, doesn’t download. They seem to have server problems and don’t appear to be concerned about it. It has gotten continually worse and they haven’t tried to correct the problem. This is why I give a low rating.
Problem is getting worse, down graded to 1 star

### 1/5 — Too small, confusing background

*2024-03-24, version 23*

The pieces are way too small, the background looks like the puzzle, pieces don’t move easily with finger touch, Just about going Blind trying to do this. No recommendation from me.

### 1/5 — New update wiped out everything

*2024-01-15, version 23*

New update wiped ou everything , score, user name , completed puzzles, I had a score of over 3 million not it is all gone, what did you do?

### 1/5 — Everything is gone

*2024-01-12, version 23*

Allllll of my status and progress is gone 😤😤

### 1/5 — Solved games

*2024-01-09, version 23*

Been playing this puzzle for some time but went to the game yesterday and all puzzle showing I solved them had been wiped clean so thanks for nothing

### 5/5 — I love doing all the small mosaics

*2026-09-06, version 23*

All puzzles on this site can be very challenging and fun.  And most scenes can be chosen in varying size of number pieces. Best of all most are free and you can save each one when completed, and the only please you need to store them is in your picture file.

Thank you!

### 5/5 — Where the heck is it?

*2026-07-30, version 23*

I love jig saw puzzle ❤️ but often wish each pic says where it is. Some i recognize, some not

Best Jigsaw Puzzles Ever!

### 5/5 — Gott

*2026-07-13, version 23*

ICH BIN immer GOTt

### 5/5 — Puzzles

*2026-06-12, version 23*

Pieces

### 5/5 — Nice and Simple

*2026-05-15, version 23*

No obtrusive ads, content locks, just some nice puzzles to do whenever. I would love if there’s an option to do puzzles in other dimensions (as in not always square) and if there could be an option to view the picture as a reference while doing the puzzle so I can see where the piece might go (rather than the overlay).

### 5/5 — Fun!

*2026-04-11, version 23*

I totally enjoy all the difference puzzles!
