2026-06-04 TS***** Not a fan of the pay wall!

2026-02-24 FD***** I love this app’s outstanding pencil integration, no other crossword app comes close except “Paper Sudoku” which is equally outstanding (although has more ads but is free). My only gripe is the puzzle size, smaller puzzles during the week and now larger Sat-Sun puzzles. I’m almost done working my way through every single one since finding this awesome app a few months ago. Please please please increase your puzzle sizes all week or at least make them a little harder! Lol love the app, thanks for the fun.

2026-02-22 Ta***** The ability to write with your pen is fabulous. However, $8 a month is crazy, esp when it doesn’t even save your progress? Exited out the game for a min and had to restart my puzzle. Also, you should have the ability to zoom in bc I cannot write that small. All in all, great idea but immediately deleted.

2026-02-18 Ib***** This is a pretty good app for using your pencil that isn’t drawing or notetaking. Once you subscribe, which I did, you get a wealth of historical puzzles, which is really nice because it will take quite a while to go through them all. To that end, my suggestion to the developer would be to give us a filter so that we can see the puzzles that we have yet to do of which there are many. As well as filter for puzzle size and other attributes. Endlessly scrolling through the archives is a pain in the butt. It would also be nice if this were included in the family plan so that my wife, who enjoys the free daily puzzle because she can’t justify both of us spending a not insignificant amount of money on this app, could also enjoy its full potential for this cost.

2026-02-14 Ca***** I would love the ability to give feedback on specific puzzles. Some of the clues and conventions that it utilizes are just not good.

2026-01-22 ge***** Great app! It would be an awesome feature to be able to sort the puzzles by dimensions and/or by author.

2026-01-11 Da***** Honestly this app is a hidden gem, I don’t know how it don’t have tons of gleaming reviews. It’s perfect for a tablet, especially if you use a stylus or Apple Pencil. The crosswords are brilliant, the app words perfectly, and I know it will be a favorite of yours if you give it a try. I’ve almost completed every puzzle and it makes me so sad, I eagerly await the new one every night! Keep up the phenomenal work, you are doing amazing! Worth 10 stars!

2025-10-19 sp***** I love the handwriting aspect, but from the samples available it appears the level of the puzzles are on the easy side. If there were a variety of difficulties AND there were a (reasonable!) pay-once price to unlock all content, I would be interested in getting this for a loved one who loves crosswords, but as it stands , no.

2025-10-10 Do***** I really wanted a crossword app that used handwriting recognition with Apple Pencil. This does that, but you only get ONE very short crossword each day. No option to buy packs, only an incredibly expensive subscription service. If there were any indication that they would have better puzzles I might consider it. However, it is not worth it based on puzzle quality. I can only hope another developer figures out this technology soon, because while the handwriting technology is great, the puzzles aren’t, and the subscription price is exorbitant.

2025-05-29 Ch***** I used to be able to go back and do the previous days crosswords for free. I hadn’t opened the app in a few months and when I did today I was greeted with an option to pay a subscription if I wanted to go back and do the ones I missed. This app was so much better before the update of a subscription.
