User Reviews

Users appreciate the range of puzzles and the app's potential value to puzzle enthusiasts but frequently report major issues including loss of progress, puzzles not loading, and UI problems such as tiny fonts and problematic keyboards. Many mention frustration with the subscription model requiring upfront card details and lack of effective customer support. Despite improvements over previous apps, bugs and usability issues diminish the overall experience, leading some long-term users to cancel subscriptions.

Pros

Provides a good collection of puzzles like crosswords and polygon puzzles for enthusiasts.
Has potential and value for puzzle lovers when it works properly.
Improved scrolling and navigation compared to the main Times app.
Offers a unified place for Times puzzles, easier to navigate than the website for some users.

Cons

Fails to save puzzle progress and often loses data or resets puzzles unexpectedly.
Puzzles frequently do not load or update despite indicating they are available.
Completed puzzles are often not marked correctly and continue showing as 'in progress'.
User interface issues: default text size too small, tiny crossword grids, unworkable on-screen keyboard, and bugs in puzzle viewing (see only half of the puzzle).
Subscription model demands immediate card details for trial and can be costly, with poor disclosure on pricing and weak customer support.

Recent reviews

I am a long time user of this app. It now fails to save puzzles . I have completed hundreds of puzzles on the app and now am unable to reload and continue any of them. In short , all my data has been lost. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, however the data remains lost. The developer needs to read this and sort this mess out.
