### 5/5 — so far the best sudoku on the app store

*2024-11-22, version 1.2*

You may need to learn how does it work at the beginning after the learning this is amazing

### 5/5 — Great game. Love autofill!

*2024-08-27, version 1.2*

Favorite so far.

### 5/5 — Great

*2024-08-20*

I don’t have to spend time setting up the notes

### 5/5 — Love the automatic notes

*2024-07-14*

Also love the themed event puzzles

### 5/5 — Excellent!

*2024-06-04*

So much fun, and easy to use! The big problem is that you can’t stop playing!

### 5/5 — Great UI

*2024-04-19*

Best sudoku interface I have found. It would be even better if one could set it to not show mistakes per the real solution, only mistakes indicated by existing entries. Also, show detailed chain info in hints so that technique is clearer for users trying to learn that technique.

### 5/5 — Good

*2024-04-18*

It’s good. Gives a little more feedback to help you spot patterns which is nice

### 5/5 — By far the best I have found.

*2024-04-07*

Most powerful and least annoying with adds.

### 5/5 — I really like it.

*2024-03-21*

Fun. Works well. Good features.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2024-03-01*

It has all the features you will ever need

### 5/5 — Great game love it

*2024-01-27*

Thankyou ☺️

### 5/5 — It’s the notes!

*2024-01-23, version 1.2*

Repetitive motion of putting in the notes, in other versions of Sudoku, was really getting painful in my wrist.

### 5/5 — Fun Sudoku

*2024-01-01, version 1.2*

The most fun and helpful sudoku app I have found.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2026-03-05*

I was enthusiastic to try it, but it crashes and closes on the very first bit of tutorial, as soon as it tells you to drag over your very first number.  Restarting doesn’t help.  It won’t let me skip the tutorial, and it crashes in the exact same way if you try to play a daily puzzle instead.  Too bad.  iPad Mini A17 Pro, 18.7.2.

### 1/5 — App doesn’t actually work

*2025-12-05*

The app automatically shuts down before actually being able to play

### 1/5 — Unplayable

*2025-04-12, version 1.2*

I can’t play it.  It won’t let me make a move.

### 3/5 — No landscape mode. Cant toggle all notes at once.

*2024-05-04*

App doesn’t correct when you turn your device to landscape. Drives me nuts on my ipad. Also can’t toggle all notes on and off at will. You can turn them all on at once but then you have to delete them one at a time. 
I’d also enjoy a challenge mode, like 3 strikes, you’re out. They do have weekly events that turn the numbers into symbols which is kinda cool, but i dont play them much.

### 3/5 — Dragging numbers

*2023-10-16, version 1.1*

Dragging numbers seams very cumbersome. Clicking on squares and numbers should be automatic

### 4/5 — Would prefer a second colour for notes

*2025-07-23, version 1.2*

Other than that, ads are minimal and it’s fun :)

### 4/5 — Turn on and off auto note feature request

*2024-02-25*

Hi, I’d like the ability to start with auto note feature off and then turn it on and then off and on…as needed.  This would be like The NY Times Sudoku puzzle.  I like to begin by finding hidden pairs and a clean board before filling it up with numbers.  Thanks for considering!

### 5/5 — Best sudoku app

*2026-05-26*

I was looking for a good sudoku app with minimum advertisement and auto notes. This app fits all the requirements. Totally recommend!

### 5/5 — Great Game!

*2026-05-01*

This Sudoku has everything you could want.  What it lacks is a buy option.  The ads in between each game get old fast.

### 5/5 — Best Sudoku App I've tried

*2026-02-09, version 1.2*

Best Sudoku App I've tried

## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Fun game

*2025-10-19, version 1.2*

I like how it fills in the pencil mark candidates

### 5/5 — Best Sudoku

*2025-10-08*

The game controls/mechanics of this version of sudoku are far superior above any other version I’ve played over the years. Thank you for making this. If you’re looking for a sudoku app to download, THIS is the one!

### 5/5 — All the features

*2025-09-07*

With auto candidate completion, you can get to the strategy stage right away. Very few ads. The teaching hints are helpful for new players and for learning how to complete the more difficult puzzles.

### 5/5 — The best sudoku

*2025-08-24*

Thankyou ☺️

### 5/5 — Highly recommend

*2025-07-30*

Has all the bells and whistles. Highly recommend. This is the best Sudoku app in my opinion.

### 5/5 — Great game

*2025-06-12*

Great game. The auto note saves so much time

### 5/5 — Best so far

*2025-01-15, version 1.2*

Request: when you invoke the ‘lightbulb’, I’d like to get be able to cancel on the first or any screen there after.
