Great app, layout and design with choices in options. The puzzles offer a challenge for the aficionados and layered help for everyone else.

### 1/5 — Top of diagrams are cut off

*2024-08-21, version 1.3.321*

On the iPhone 13 mini. What’s the point?!

### 1/5 — Imágen de referencia no visible

*2019-01-06, version 1.3.321*

Hola,

La aplicación es buenísima, sin embargo, no es compatible al menos con el iPhone XS Max, puesto a que la figura de referencia superior no es visible por causa del notch del teléfono.

### 3/5 — Great game lacks polish on iOS 11

*2018-03-18, version 1.3.321*

The tangram! puzzles are great. There’s no question about variety. 

The board mechanics are simple enough: move via the inner circle, rotate via the outer circle. 

There seems to be no way to flip the parallelogram piece which you can do with real tiles. Perhaps it’s not a purist move. All puzzles should be solvable without this anyway. 

It is TOO EASY to aim for a piece on the lower portion of the board and be accidentally returned to the menu. Unfortunately, if you have random selection enabled (it is by default), then finding your way back to your puzzle is troublesome. If you happen to click on another puzzle, all your effort is lost. This is highly frustrating.

There is no pinch to zoom or spread to magnify. This is highly annoying when you have to move the whole puzzle back into view if you change a large piece, for example. There is an option to double click touching pieces and moving them as one. This is a decent workaround, but magnification and zoom would be better. 

It would be a really nice option for children if you could enable a full-size outline of the figure. Right now the target figure is small and judging relative proportions is difficult for younger players. Sadly, the target is easily obscured by overlaying pieces AND it often swoops out of view, seemingly on its own.

Overall, the game is enjoyable and play is consistent. 

Adapting the game to include standard UI features such as zoom is a must. 

A history with undo is a nice to have. 

Don’t wait another minute. Download the game and try it. There are enough free levels included to truly judge for yourself.

### 4/5 — Great but can’t get next board

*2024-11-29, version 1.3.321*

I finished the first board and I can’t get the next one.

### 4/5 — Tangram!

*2019-10-08, version 1.3.321*

Excellent game but I miss being to flip the parallelogram.

### 4/5 — Great challenge, still needs some tweaks

*2019-01-04, version 1.3.321*

The challenge of the puzzles is far greater than the original game.  However, the shape selection/rotation is quirky, and the swipe up feature catches too often, especially when trying to select a shape from below.   Also, I find that particularly in the puzzles where there’s slight incongruence of shapes, the auto-detector doesn’t identify a solved puzzle.  Frustrating when I know I’ve solved it.  I’m addicted, however.

### 5/5 — Tangram!

*2024-01-27, version 1.3.321*

Nice upgrade. You can see through the shapes to be sure you have the right piece. You can move and rotate pieces.

### 5/5 — Treino e distração da mente

*2021-01-24, version 1.3.321*

Muito bem feito

### 5/5 — Loving it

*2020-07-25, version 1.3.321*

I like this brand new Chinese app because it tells me how to make a Tangram Puzzles and I really like it

### 5/5 — Still a challenge

*2019-09-03, version 1.3.321*

Still a challenge and fun even after completing the game several times through. Well done!
