The best Crossword app on iOS

One of the few apps I use daily and I very much enjoy the ability to pull up a variety of different publications crosswords. Would love to see an update to include the NYT Midi which has been daily since March and maybe some English (not American) selectionโ€™s.

Glitchy

I just downloaded this to give it a try. On first launch there was an endless spinner, but once I force restarted the app it worked. Now that Iโ€™m trying to do a crossword, it keeps not responding to taps for 10-30 seconds at a time while the timer keeps running. The concept of the app seems great, the performance bugs just need to be ironed out before Iโ€™d use it regularly

Greatest crossword app!

This is the best app for all your favourite crosswords in one placeโ€ฆlove the new features like the Rebus!

Improved navigation

Several days ago I emailed asking about navigating the puzzle using the tab key. The app developer responded the same day telling me that the navigation was adversely affected by a recent iOS update but that it should be addressed in the next app update. Today, I received another email telling me that the update was out and asking that I verify its functionality. While the timing of the update was clearly coincidental to my inquiry, the kind of personal attention shown speaks volumes about the developer. I highly recommend.
