Great App

The app works great, there's good support, and the stuff for sale is well priced, and not pushed on you. What more can you ask?

Great support!

I just reported a server issue, and got a fix in less than 2 hours on a Saturday evening!! I think it's been years since I got that level of support. 🎉

As a new user, I was a bit concerned about the lack of updates. But that's a great thing for folks who can't upgrade their devices to newer iOS versions.

The app works great - I love the intuitive TouchWrite entry system. I can keep my eyes on the puzzle at all times.

The fact that their app continues to work well across the iOS versions is a clear indicator of the quality of the programming.

Free Daily Sudoku AND KenKen working again

When this app works, it’s great! The Free Daily Sudoku had been broken, for me, for a very long time. Not sure why it suddenly works again since the app hasn’t been updated in years, but I’ll take it. I’m still hesitant to add any paid subscriptions given the apparent lack of maintenance.

They send you political emails

If you buy you’re subscribing to them sending exhortations to vote for their candidates. Only company I’ve seen do that. I voted for the candidate they want but hate the idea that companies are going to start sending us political emails. So I deleted this app, unsubscribed from their emails and switched to black ink. It works just as well and is politics free

Politics with a Puzzle?

I generally liked the app. Used it daily. Then I got a vile political e-mail from the app with partisan puzzles.

Not how I like to relax at the end of the day. App deleted.
