## What is SudokuScan?

Scan → Play.
Scan any printed Sudoku and continue playing on your phone.

• Track your progress

• Generate unlimited puzzles
• Play without ads
• Improve every day

Got a sudoku in the newspaper or a magazine? SudokuScan brings it to your phone in a moment – just point the camera at it.

SCAN
• Point the camera at a printed sudoku. The app finds the grid, straightens it (even at an angle or sideways) and reads the numbers.
• Automatic capture as soon as the grid is in view and the phone is steady.
• If the app isn't sure about a number, it marks it for you to check – it never makes things up.
• You can also pick a photo from your library or enter the numbers manually.

LIVE SOLVE
• Turn on Live solve and just point your phone at the paper – the missing numbers appear right in the camera view, in perspective, and stay on the grid as you move.
• Works even with several sudoku on one page.

SOLVE
• Play on a clear board with notes and automatic candidates.
• Smart hints don't give the number away – they first explain where the next step is and why. You learn techniques like a real solver.
• Mistake check, undo, and a light wave when you complete a row, column or box.
• A typo fixed within 2 seconds doesn't count.

PLAY ANYTIME
• Generate & play: unlimited new sudoku in one tap – 4 difficulty levels from Easy to Expert, each with a unique solution.
• My sudoku: every game saves automatically; your game in progress waits on the home screen.
• Progress: player level and XP, achievements, personal records and scanner statistics.
• Share the puzzle or your result with friends as an image.

COMFORTABLE AND DISTRACTION-FREE
