User reviews

No

For some strange reason no matter how I printed it the sudoku puzzle couldn’t find a valid answer. Doesn’t work, extremely confusing to use, wouldn’t recommend. Use a different app.

Absolute garbage

This app is absolute garbage. It doesn’t work had every number programmed in correctly and it said no solution. App is junk

Response from developer

Hi, sorry to hear that no solution was found for your Sudoku. Please send a photo of your Sudoku to hi@sudokuscan.de and we are happy to help!

App doesn’t even work

The scanner is very very very poor

Works like a charm if photo quality is adequate

Make sure you take the photo of the sudoku puzzle with good lighting and without distortion then the app will do just what it is supposed to do. I tested it with some sudokus with the size of approximately 10 by 10 cm printed on non glossy paper with plain white background and recognition was 100% correct.

Pointless and not worth the download

Doesn’t work. It’s pointless
