### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-06-01, version 5.5.6*

Very helpful

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2026-05-18, version 5.5.4*

Annoying review pops up too too much!

### 1/5 — Unbelievable how obnoxios this is!

*2025-10-17*

I recently downloaded again to see if they changed their fradulent ways, but you still gets ad after ad without a chance to see the answers.  They will never change! Don't download.  You will never get any help from them!

**Developer response:** Our ad partners usually do a great job at not allowing offensive or malfunctioning ads on their platform. For those instances when they fail, you can always tap the ad's identifier in the corner and use their reporting system. Not only will it flag that particular ad, it will also inform their systems not to show you other ads of its kind. We also offer a VIP upgrade that removes all ads.

### 5/5 — Great customer support

*2025-10-16, version 5.5.3*

I’ve been using this app for a number of years and it works great. It unfortunately doesn’t support any theme except for the sunny theme but i understand what a logistical nightmare it would be having to ad support for multiple backgrounds. I highly recommend this app. 
Great developer support as well.

### 4/5 — Ad Overwhelm

*2025-09-23, version 5.5.2*

No longer any good. Overtime, ads have dominated this app   Now they take up so much time, and repeat, and nearly always keep you from getting back to the word hints. The app is basically useless now. [had 2 years of use on iPhone 14 Pro]

### 5/5 — Need more inventory

*2025-06-17, version 5.5.2*

You add very little to your monthly inventory and some of it is too far out..... need to pump new blood into this game. Plus, we pay for hints and your hints are never the best words.

### 1/5 — Ad promotions a huge negative overshadowing a good app.

*2025-06-02, version 5.5.0*

Have to suffer ads when the app is opened and if you want to see top tier hints, so can be a double ad whammy wasting your time.  Plus the ads are for a game I would/will never play/purchase if only because of the life wasting ads.

### 5/5 — Ads

*2025-05-03, version 5.5.0*

Why did you make your ads 21/2 minutes long? It sure make want to delete the app!!!

### 1/5 — Was great until…

*2024-12-08, version 5.4.3*

It stopped loading the screen shot.  Keep getting the message “cannot load unless you have the summer screen.”  Of course I ALWAYS had this screen on.  So apparently there is a bug that needs fixed.

### 5/5 — Better when it was free! 🤪

*2024-07-06, version 5.4.2*

I loved this more….when it was free. BUT since now I pay for it, please WHY DOESN'T it support other backgrounds?!?!?!

This has been an amazing for times that I get stuck and in tournaments but I feel that if I pay for it, I should be able to use any background not just the sunny. Why does this not support the other backgrounds?

Will this feature ever happen?!?!
