## Review summary

Many reviewers praise Pure Sudoku for its clean, puzzle-focused core and well-designed challenges. However, widespread complaints center on intrusive ads and linked scam/malware concerns, plus updates that degrade usability (shading/highlighting changes). Readability issues (small numbers, notes) and occasional crashes are noted, as is the lack of iPad landscape support. Overall, the app is enjoyable when ads are minimal, but major UX and security irritants deter frequent use.

### Pros

- Clean, minimal interface that’s easy to use.
- Puzzles are well-designed and appropriately challenging.
- Core Sudoku gameplay is solid and has a long-running, loyal user base.
- Some reviewers report a low-ads or ad-free experience in certain versions.
- Overall enjoyable and engaging Sudoku experience without unnecessary bells and whistles.

### Cons

- Intrusive ads and pop-ups disrupt gameplay, including auto-opening browser links and scam/malware-like prompts.
- Updates in UI changes degrade usability (such as shading/highlighting) and remove useful features without easy toggle options.
- Readability issues: numbers can be too small, notes visibility can be hindered, and timing UI can be problematic.
- Occasional instability or crashes where the game shuts down mid-solve.
- Lack of landscape mode on iPad, limiting comfortable play on larger screens.
