Mahj 4 Friends

I’m glad a friend suggested this game! I’m just learning and there is no pressure playing with bots! Also, it’s easy to play with another remote player. We had no problem using the undo button to replay a missed tile. I think it would be a lot better on an iPad (rather than a phone). I’ll try that next time.

Suggested Hands so helpful

I’m pretty new to mah jongg and play and win a decent percentage of the time and I credit this to practicing with the app and especially using the “Suggested Hands” button to get ideas of what hand to pick when dealt a mish mash.

Potential for greatness!

I was very much enjoying learning the game on this app. It worked well the first few days. After the first few days, it would remain frozen on the main page, and I had to turn it on and off a couple times to be able to start a practice game. Currently, it just freezes on the main page no matter what and the only option I have is to join a live game, which I do not want to do yet. I have great service, Wifi, everything. Sometimes it tells me it’s waiting to connect to the server, but recently it just does nothing. I really miss practicing like I was able to in the beginning! Please let me know how I can go back to just starting a game with three bots whenever I want!

Response from developer

Hi there, I'm sorry the app keeps freezing on the main page. Practice games with three bots should always be available, so you shouldn't be stuck with only live games. These steps may help: Force-close the app: 1. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen and pause in the middle (on a phone with a Home button, double-click Home). 2. Swipe the Mahjong 4 Friends card up and off the screen. 3. Reopen the app from the Home Screen. Update the app: 1. Open the App Store, tap your profile picture at the top right, and pull down to refresh. 2. If Mahjong 4 Friends is listed, tap "Update". Check free storage: open the Settings app, tap "General", then "iPhone Storage" (or "iPad Storage"), and free up space if it's nearly full. If it still freezes, please email support@mahjong4friends.com with a short screen recording of what happens, plus your device model and app version, so we can look into it further. Best, Mahjong Support

Great for Newbies

I went to two in person classes and got hooked. But, being with other people and having to keep the play moving was a little stressful because of my inexperience. Finding this game and playing on my iPad has made me feel so much more confident for the next time I play with other people. It helps me train in recognizing patterns on the card and with the tiles while not being under pressure to make a play. It also taught me other ways to use jokers that I hadn’t yet seen. As a newbie, it’s also taught me to keep to patterns using 3 or more tiles as they allow the use of jokers. It doesn’t take the place of playing with other people but it’s a great learning tool imo.

Great for Learning & Practice

Absolutely LOVE this app! After reading/studying Play Mahjong, I started learning to play American Mahjong using Mahjong 4 Friends.
The “suggested hands” were instrumental in helping me understand & learn to use the NMJL card. I now look at the my card first and occasionally check to see if my choice matches what is suggested! The app helped me go a long way in just months!!! I now play in person with a couple groups and still practice with the app! Also love the “statistics” part of this app. That has motivated me to try and win every line on the 2026 card. Only 2 more to go!!!

Hi there, Thank you for this lovely review! It's great to hear that Suggested Hands helped you learn the NMJL card and that you now check your own picks against it. Playing in person with a couple of groups after just a few months is a big achievement. Good luck with those last 2 lines on the 2026 card! Best, Mahjong Support
