Find a useful place to look when one loose jigsaw piece has you stuck. Puzzle Pointer compares a photo of your piece with the complete puzzle artwork and marks an approximate area to inspect. You still make the final visual check and physical placement. HOW IT WORKS • Start with the box barcode for a supported puzzle. Use a box or poster photo, or search by name, as a fallback. • Photograph one loose piece and confirm that every edge is visible. • Compare your piece with the marked area on the full puzzle. • Open the close-up, pinch to zoom, or try another suggested area. • Found it? Share a piece-and-location card if you want to. Puzzle Pointer is designed for physical jigsaw puzzles. Results are visual suggestions, not guaranteed exact fits. If a photo is unclear or no useful area is found, the app explains what to try next. If your barcode isn't in the catalogue, you can request that puzzle. A request helps prioritize additions; it doesn't guarantee availability or a matching result. Three primary piece searches are included free. Each unsuccessful original can add one extra search, for up to six completed free searches total; an extra search cannot add another. Completed matcher responses, including no-match, use a search. A search stopped before matching because the piece outline or reference is unusable, or a genuine processing failure, does not. After that, choose a one-time pack of 10 searches for $2.99 with no subscription, or Puzzle Pointer Monthly for $6.99 per month with unlimited personal piece searches while subscribed. Reopening the same result is free. The subscription automatically renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel the subscription in your Apple Account settings. Prices may vary by region.
