Ads
The constant ads are a torture
The Ads Are Too Annoying
The actual game of Scrabble is just as good as the real thing but the issue comes with the ads.
You can’t skip them and the only way to back out of them is by completely closing the app each time.
Plus lately they’ve been getting sketchy with one pretending to be my hope screen talking me I have a virus.

Far from flawless
I’m very glad this app was developed because Scrabble Go was an abomination. Unfortunately, this app is completely broken as regards notifications. I’ve had many copies of it across several phones, and the notifications have *never* worked properly. I end up forgetting to play for days because I don’t get notified.
Also bringing my score down - the forced on-board dictionary which allows players to see a word’s legality before playing it is completely contrary to the basic principles of Scrabble. Amazed that this can’t be turned off and a challenge system implemented in its place.
Finally, migrating to a new phone is buggy and one can simply lose one’s entire account and have to start again. I witnessed this with my mother when I got her a new phone - despite my very best efforts, and logging in via Apple, the old account completely disappeared.
All in all, there is rather a lot of work to do.

Hello ocarian, Thank you for your feedback! We want to investigate this further. Could you please open a ticket with our Customer Support so we can review it? Thank you!
Word not acceoted
I have deleted this otherwise good app as, for some reason the word JEW was invalid, a perfectly good word with a good score
Aggressive scam ads
Love scrabble but don’t touch until the developers have sorted the ads. I got an aggressive scam ad pop up faking Apple security warning of imminent virus attack.
It’s ok
You need to put a timer on the real opponent games though otherwise people just leave and you’ve got a bunch of pending games without an outcome
Screen size changed
I’ve been playing this game for a while now. Recently, the screen size has changed and I cannot alter it
How many ads?
Ridiculous number of ads which are deceptive in the close buttons.
I’m not against ads but the implementation is blatantly unethical and extremely detrimental to the game.

Annoying ads
Enjoyed the first few games then all games kept been interrupted by ads. Deleted now so frustrating
Saturated with ads
Games okay, bots are good to play with, but is totally ruined by ads after every move, I’ve dumped the game.
Only shows 5 star reviews
Too many adverts and expensive to remove. Ads after every word is infuriating and makes almost impossible to enjoy. Try another version of scrabble where the creator is not so greedy.
Terrible
Never seen a game with so many ads
I had one turn and then I had two adverts I couldn’t bypass. Just deleted it

Was great
Used to be good… Completely ruined by recent introduction of ridiculously long, irritating, and impossible to close video ads. Such a shame
Repeated annoying adverts
Drives you mad can’t close ads
adverts
the game is good but the adverts come up after every move and are difficult to get rid of. I get bored waiting and move on to another game
Deleted
I’ve deleted it - an ad after every go, it’s just too aggravating
Poorly designed
Can’t finish ranked matches because ads force forfeit
The bees knees.
With a subscription to remove the ads, this is best Scrabble app there has ever been - so many features and options. The only improvement I’d suggest is the removal of the pop up that keeps appearing after every play or when you’ve run out of games, I’d rather have the option of a simple button to seek out further games.

Hey Enoch 68! It's wonderful to hear you love the app and appreciate the features available! Thank you for your positive feedback! Your suggestion about the pop-up notifications is valuable, and we’d love to hear more about your experience. If you have any other ideas or thoughts, feel free to share!
Constant adverts
Would be good if it wasn’t for the constant adverts that take ages. In between games would be fine but this is almost after every move. Going to delete and would say don’t bother.
Too many ads
Real shame about this one as it’s a great game. Experience is totally ruined by the ad strategy though. Would have bought the ad free version for a one off payment but not paying monthly for scrabble 🤑
