### 3/5 — Shuffle

*2026-06-01*

Wish for shuffle

**Developer response:** Thanks for the suggestion! We’ll consider it for a future update.

### 3/5 — Ads introduced

*2026-04-20*

I downloaded this because it didn’t have ads. over the past few weeks, ads became more frequent until I got them after multiple games in a row just now. very annoying experience.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback. We recently introduced ads to support the game’s development, and we understand that seeing them too often can be frustrating. Ads are capped at 3 per 24-hour window, but we’re still working on spacing them out better so they feel less disruptive. For a completely uninterrupted experience, there’s also a “Remove Ads” option in Settings. We appreciate you playing!

### 5/5 — Lots of fun

*2026-02-16, version 1.25.2*

This is a great app that does what it says on the tin. There are no ads and is perfect to play on the tube since it doesn’t need an internet connection. Love it.

### 4/5 — Dark mode

*2026-02-12*

Would love an option to toggle light/dark mode. I prefer dark mode for everything except Set!

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! The app theme switcher is available in the latest version 1.27.0, please check it out.

### 5/5 — Simple and free

*2026-01-01*

I appreciate that this game is completely free, there are no ads, and it’s just like the experience of playing Set with a card deck. It works really well on my iPad and iPhone.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the kind feedback! I’m glad you’re enjoying the classic Set experience on both iPad and iPhone.

### 3/5 — May be glitchy

*2025-12-24*

I think I’ve had a few rounds with no possible set. There should be a hint or quit and show me the answer option.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! Each round is designed to always have at least one valid set available until the game ends. That said, I understand some situations can feel especially challenging. A hint or reveal option is a good suggestion, and I will consider it for a future update.

### 5/5 — Brain training

*2025-12-09*

This game helps you trains your brain and I haven’t gotten an add once

**Developer response:** Thanks for your support!

### 4/5 — Display size changes on iPad landscape

*2025-11-11, version 1.24.0*

Thanks for the response and changing display in latest version.
The size of the tiles now change during play on iPad in wide mode (as number of tiles change?).
The smaller size I find fine, the bigger size is too much when trying to compare tiles.

### 5/5 — Great learning aid

*2025-11-06*

When my 4 year old granddaughter brought out her deck of SET cards, she gave me hints so I wasn’t skunked.   After coming home, I loaded your app on my ipad to teach this 70 year old brain!  I still can’t keep up with the 4 year old, but I do occasionally find one first now.  Thanks for your help.

**Developer response:** That’s lovely to hear! Glad to help you practice ❤️

### 3/5 — Prefer old display format

*2025-11-05, version 1.23.0*

I'd been enjoying this game on a iPad but the update has the shapes filling the screen, which I don't find to be an improvement.
It seemed easier to assess the shapes when they were displayed in a smaller size.
