Solid app, these features would make it even better

Worth the $5 for sure. If you play this game often, buy it and support the developers. Love the UI with the ability to quickly change the colors. Also the app is fast it doesn’t glitch or lag, allowing me to play fast. Some other apps are laggy and it slows me down. Please make the following changes: 1. The HINT button needs to be renamed. It is not a “hint” it just reveals the square. Call it REVEAL. 2. Add a setting to allow paying users to remove the HINT button. I keep accidentally tapping it 3. Create an actual HINT button that gives a hint 4. Make the “tournaments” real, with players competing against each other instead of a scoreboard full of fake users and fake scores 5. Prevent users from doing unlimited HINTS or reveals in tournament games. 6. This is BIG one that would make things so much easier. Please add a calendar selection feature so that players can easily browse to past daily puzzles. Currently players must swipe one month at a time. If I have completed the past two years worth of puzzles and want to play some older ones, I would have to swipe 24 times to get to the puzzles that I want to play! Take a look at the NYT Games crossword app and the way they handle the calendar.

Bad timing for commercials

I recently got into Sudoku again quite a few years ago I dappled in it now I have seven apps for different makers of the sudoku game. I’m gonna narrow it down to two or three that I like the most and I’m playing them back to back playing a couple games in each one until I figure out what I do and don’t like so originally I like this one the most because it was the first one I downloaded in this recent journey of getting back into it but what I’ve came to realize is it gives the ads at all the wrong times you’re just getting on a roll and it congratulates you if you finish a number or a cell or a block whatever and how it congratulates you by giving you an ad it’ll be like a cute little emoji congratulations way to go you’re doing great and then Bam you gonna add I understand these apps to be free have to have ads but it’s just all bad timing. Maybe if you mess up or something give you an ad give you an ad when you finish the game or when you start a new game something like that, I’ll try and keep track of what the other ones do but I’ve played the other ones all a few times and I was not annoyed with the ad so this must have the most ones out of the seven that I have and it’s super annoying because you just get on a roll, you got numbers in your head what you’re gonna play next and then you gotta wait for an ad and you lose it all in your mindso if it wasn’t for that, I would probably give it a five star

Developer Response ,

Hi! We apologize for any inconvenience caused by the ads in our app. We understand that they can be frustrating. We appreciate your feedback and are constantly improving our app's user experience. In the meantime, we recommend upgrading to our ad-free for a small one-time payment. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Ads and Statistics

You guys used to run a lot less ads. I get needing revenue to continue running the app but I have pretty quick times. There’s no reason I should have to watch 3 ads for a 2:20 minute level. Secondly, I used to have a flawless statistic sheet across the board. 100% wins. Just recently I noticed I dropped to 99% and saw that I have 131 started and 130 won. But my streak is 130… that means I should’ve lost the first one I ever started and I never should’ve had 100% wins. Which means the loss was randomly added to my account. It’s also on the daily challenges which you CANT reset not to mention no one wants to reset 130 games. Please fix whatever glitch happened on my account so I can have my 100% back. I dealt with the ads because of my statistics, but with my statistics being skewed and now not flawless anymore; its not worth staying on an app I already have other issues with.

Your generic computer response because you scanned the word “ads” has cost you a player. I may be a drop in the bucket but maybe enough people will get fed up with the lack of respect and the obnoxious level of advertising that ruins timed runs. The main issue, and most of my review has to do with the statistic glitch. And even if; I watch 45 seconds of nonskippable ads to play a 2.5 minute level. Having ads to run a game and being overkill are very different. I’d argue having close to a 1/3 of my time on this app being spent in adds is overkill.
