Each and every day you are given a new free puzzle to solve. If you happen to miss one of the puzzles during the week, don't worry, you can also view the last seven days of reviews. The crossword puzzles are all meant to be fast, simple, and plenty of fun so you aren’t scratching your head for hours trying to come up with that last word or two to complete the puzzle.

The app currently has 3.5 out of five stars from users. You'll find the comments are pretty positive with users but one comment from players is that the clues aren't always helpful.

The Gameplay Experience

There are a few different gameplay features here that make the app that much more fun. There are two entry views for each of the crossword puzzles, you can zoom in on the screen, there is a clue view, you can check for errors in the entire puzzle or just in one clue, and you can get hints for the puzzle/clue/letter.

The best crossword apps for iPad

When you launch the app you are taken to the menu of puzzles for the last seven days so you can click on any of them to play. The game board is very clean and simple looking, which makes for better gameplay all around. Often these boards feel too cluttered, hard to read, and small. All the game controls are intuitive and smooth and so far I have found the clues to be quite helpful. I like that just as the developers promised this is a very fast and simple crossword option.
