It sounds like this problem has been going on for a while. I’m disappointed you guys couldn’t fix it. ### 1/5 — Problem since update. *2026-03-15* This game still doesn’t work on my iPad. It did, long ago. This is my third time reviewing because of this problem. Why take the time to create a great game, leave it as an option but not bother to fix it when you are told about the problem? We can’t play it! Either fix it or remove it! **Developer response:** We have now fixed the issue and the game can be played normally.

It then just takes my money (for the loss) and restarts me in a new game. ### 1/5 — Can’t pass first tiles. *2025-12-09* Still Not working after update. I can not move any tiles. I am using an iPad. ### 1/5 — Can’t pass first tiles. *2025-12-07* Not working. ### 1/5 — Useless *2025-11-14* Update: Now it crashes constantly. Still useless. Fire your developers. I was looking forward to playing this as the graphics looked great. Same as others though, you can’t pass to start the game. Says this issue is fixed but as of today 6/29 it is definitely not. This is unplayable and useless. ### 1/5 — Unable to Launch *2025-09-01* Despite multiple gorcw quits and fresh launches, the game hangs at the loading screen on “Now Loading (10%)” and then never loads. Disappointed because the website version is quite good. ### 1/5 — Game does not work *2025-08-31* Game loads but no tiles can be chosen during the first Charleston. Useless. ## Most praised reviews (2 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Highly recommended! *2025-11-12* As a mahjong enthusiast, I’ve tried many mahjong apps, but MahJongo offers the best experience by far. No intrusive ads, a beautifully designed interface, and impressively smart AI opponents. I especially love the multi-language support and replay analysis feature — they truly show the developers’ passion and dedication to mahjong culture. Highly recommended! ### 4/5 — Pleasant Surprise! *2026-04-04* This has been the best app i’ve found so far for Chinese mahjong! Unfortunately I am a bit broken up that the app doesn’t allow for friendly matches, or any way to connect with my friends for a game the way the web browser does. That would certainly take this app up another level for me. Additionally I could convince others to learn and play with me through the app! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
