### 5/5 — Make Bible Scriptures Fun and Easy to Memorize

*2025-05-24, version 1.03.07*

JW crosswords help me spend my free time better and helps me to memorize scriptures by details in the scripture. I really enjoy it. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Updated!

*2025-05-21, version 1.03.07*

I haven’t used this for a while but when I sign back in I see that it has been updated with all the weekly meeting puzzles. I believe the software and the app itself has been updated the problem being telephones seem to have to update every week or so for security reasons and I’m sure it’s hard to keep up with. Very happy with how hard the brothers  work to keep this app current. I believe the last problem was probably getting the application itself updated.It’s up-to-date now so dig in and enjoy!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-04-25, version 1.03.07*

I love your crosswords, and the lessons it shares.

### 4/5 — Challenging & Fun

*2025-04-17, version 1.03.07*

The only complaint I have is the answers are spread across way too many Bible versions.  I have had a hard time finding the Jehovah W Bible “online” to research.  Weird…with so many being available 🤔

### 5/5 — Review

*2025-04-04, version 1.03.06*

I love that fact that there is a cross word puzzle that is informative and helpful with retaining information about the Bible. I love it.

### 4/5 — I like it but…

*2025-03-25, version 1.03.06*

It could be better it just need fixed then it will be perfect

### 5/5 — fun

*2025-03-23, version 1.03.06*

just get a bible and have fun if you need hints it got you but learn the bible before

### 2/5 — Questionable Clues

*2025-03-23, version 1.03.06*

I enjoy crosswords and was intrigued by this app which claims to be designed by and for Jehovah’s Witnesses.  While I expected some secular clues, I was disappointed to see  clues for unclean slang terms that true Christians don’t use.  Sadly I cannot recommend.

### 3/5 — Helps One To Think

*2025-03-20, version 1.02.13*

I haven’t been playing this crossword puzzle much, but I find it very helpful when you take the TIME to look up the scriptures. If possible, could there be a red flag to indicate that the WRONG WORD was entered? I think this would help one to search more for the CORRECT answer.

### 5/5 — Updated!

I haven’t used this for a while but when I sign back in I see that it has been updated with all the weekly meeting puzzles. I believe the software and the app itself has been updated the problem being telephones seem to have to update every week or so for security reasons and I’m sure it’s hard to keep up with. Very happy with how hard the spokes work to keep this app current. I believe the last problem was probably getting the application itself updated.It’s up-to-date now so dig in and enjoy!
