Crossword Daily: Word Puzzle

I’ve downloaded LOTS of free crossword puzzle Apps, and this one is — hands down— the best of them all. You get several new free puzzles per day (usually 5-7) from (mostly) major newspapers like Newsday, LA Times, etc. (sorry— no NY Times, though). They represent a nice selection, ranging from fairly easy to real stumpers. And if those aren’t enough for you, you can even go back to previous days and do one that you hadn’t gotten to yet. Movement within the puzzles is fairly intuitive. They can be worked in either portrait or landscape (a real plus, IMO). The blocks and text for clues are large enough... plenty easy to read. Ads never interfere with working a puzzle... they only appear if you leave the puzzle for some reason. PLUS all ads are only 5 seconds long! You can choose to show errors or not, and you never have to pay for anything unless you want to buy additional puzzles... but why would you, when you already have so many great free ones to choose from? No gimmicks or froo-froos, just the best free crossword puzzle App around!

Love the app - one of the better crossword puzzle apps out there, for sure. I would like to offer three suggestions for future versions though: 1. Please offer an ad-free version. I’d gladly pay a few bucks not to have ads. 2. The interface is a little drab (I love gray, but not necessarily for crossword puzzles). Nothing bright, or hard on the eyes, but not a drab gray color either. Also, I think the game would benefit from a smoother font. It would be nicer on the eyes also. 3. Being able to sync between devices would be terrific, possibly via Facebook or iCloud, as many apps do. Super convenient, and keeps folks coming back to use the app. Otherwise, great job!

This COMPLETELY FREE game has multiple NEWSPAPER CROSSWORDS for whatever day you select to play. If you’re a hard core crossword fan like me then this will be your highlight of the day like it was mine! Like many others throughout the past I’ve downloaded hundreds of crossword apps just to delete them for being to expensive/too many ads but this blows them all out of the water!! You have nothing to lose right? Lol

Overall a very good app. Automatically downloads at least 3 or 4 puzzles a day. It claims other numbers, like “downloading 7 of 8 puzzles“, and then when you look, there are 4 puzzles. Also - note to the developer - Wednesday is abbreviated Wed, not Wen. On the other hand, the app has never crashed, and I’m happy with it. One complaint: When keying in letters for a long horizontal word the screen jumps back and forth, sometimes putting the letter you’re keying off the screen.

Excellent UI. This app has all the fundamentals to enjoy crossword puzzles every day. I’d like to suggest two improvements: 1 The ability to toggle background white with black letters. 2 Offer a paid version to eliminate ads and necessary rebooting. Update...... I still really enjoy this app, but abhor all the ads. Many ads don’t work, the screen goes black and you need to restart. So many ads are very long running. Really want a paid version.
