Comments on Guardian Puzzles & Crosswords for Android
★★★★★
Very good overall, lots of choices of different types of crosswords and Sudoku. My only issue is that when I tried doing the easy killer sudoku the hint button didn't work, and I had to restart the app, which deleted my progress on said sudoku. I am only on the free trial, so it may be that this is fixed when I start paying, but it is really annoying. If this were fixed I would give 5 stars.
★★★★★
Works for me. I slightly got bored with the newspaper, so it's nice to be able to carry on with the crosswords separately.
★★★★★
Cryptic crossword set by PAUL is the best and enlivening. Quick crosswords encourage knowing of English words little known.
★★★★★
Love the app and the puzzles included for not a huge price. Couple of things that would be good for the sudoku app. Ability to select and pencil mark multiple squares. Settings to be saved globally for sudoku. Pencil marks also to be included when selecting a number using the 'highlight selection' setting.
★★☆☆☆
Doesn't work, freezes after one second of launching. I have to pick a crossword in that second or else the whole app become unresponsive.
★★☆☆☆
Clicking on things didn't work, I closed the free trial banner once, but nothing else worked.
★★☆☆☆
Thought I paid for year of puzzles. Already subscribe monthly to Guardian paper. Keep getting subscription expired message but cannot activate renewal.
★★☆☆☆
Useless for crosswords, no anagram help. Subscription getting set up is a nightmare. Would have used more, but it was just such a terrible set-up. If you live puzzles, use a different app/ real paper.
