I previously had this, and finished all the puzzles - there were only a few hundred - in a couple of hours. It now says it requires 195 MB, which is a lot for a word puzzle that doesn't use a dictionary. Crosswordlike apps generally use very little storage. But, even with almost 4 GB available, it's telling me I don't have sufficient storage. It's promoting me to delete other apps to free up an additional 500 MB.

My Dad used to do these puzzles in the paper every morning. Us kids would try to solve them before he could because they were too fun. Those ones, of course, had the clue puzzles which led to the answer puzzles, so there was a little more to it. (Versus just having the bonus jumbles.) Still, it was great finding this app. It reminds me so much of my dad and the time spent on the morning paper each day. Feels like time travel to a bygone era!! 😜
