[2013-08-01] A Google User: Not bad, not great Normally I prefer Shortyz for my crosswords, but I had tired of the fact that Shortyz has no active development and that you can't add custom sources--which I think the full Crossword does--so I decided to try Crossword Light. On my Nexus 4 it's a little bit laggy. There's no happy setting for the keyboard (small is too small, medium is too big.) The UI doesn't really look polished, though it's perfectly functional and actually has more features that I'm accustomed to, such as multiple characters per box or penciled answers. I don't consider any crossword app without outside sources a valid option, since then you're just stuck buying packs of puzzles by some unknown editor. Of all the ones I've tried (again, minus Shortyz) Crossword has been my favorite so far. If it weren't for the lag and keyboard sizing (and does it even support zoom?) then I'd give it 5 stars, easy. |

[2013-05-14] A Google User: Good but.. Good puzzles and user friendly app, but there is no option to clear all errors in the puzzle. |

[2012-12-14] A Google User: Fun but you guys really need a spellchecker. I've always been a fan of crosswords and these are no exception, but you guys really need someone who knows how to spell. I've encountered several spelling errors that made the puzzles rather difficult to solve. Musdash instead of Mustache. Caret instead of Carrot. Just to name a few. |

[2012-11-16] A Google User: Don't please Rubbish game |
|
[2012-11-13] A Google User: Clues too USA-centric. British will find the clues frustrating - many word are very dubious too. |
|
[2012-11-06] A Google User: Why? What did you guys do to this thing with the update? The clues down the right side in portrait have all disappeared. How do I get them back? Now it's look down, look up, look down, look up... You have actually managed to ruin the experience. Now searching for an alternative. Why can't anyone ever leave well enough alone? Uninstalled. |
|
[2012-11-05] A Google User: Best range Great app, but there are others. This one has puzzles that suit my non-US knowledge |
|
[2012-11-01] A Google User: No Horrible! |
|
[2012-11-01] A Google User: What happened? This was working great until the latest update ... now nothing works. When I tap on a puzzle name, the screen goes black, then the puzzle is removed from the list. I cannot use it at all. I am on a Samsung Galaxy Tab Note. |
|
[2012-10-27] A Google User: Awesome Best game no question! |

[2012-07-23] A Google User: Really difficult to place letters Squares too small' tapping screen and nothing happens and when it finally does light up it jumps to another clue in the middle of inserting a word. Far too frustrating! |

|
[2012-04-06] A Google User: Not always correct Some of them are super hard, but ther bigger issue is that words aren't always spelled right....that can make easy clues much harder... |
|
[2012-03-14] A Google User: Good I would rate higher, but the fact that it lets you cheat and then post your time sucks. I don't care who you are there is no way you can finish it in under 2 minutes. |
|

|
[2012-02-08] A Google User: Challange Forse close over and over during game. Also hard puzzles for those of us who haven't been following the events before our life time. Need multiple authors.good set up I like how much help there is but still UninstallIng it. |
|
[2012-01-28] A Google User: Good setup, bad spelling!! The layout for this game is very nice, but I've come across many spelling errors. "Mutuel" for mutual and "mostash" for moustache as a few examples. Very hard to excuse in a game that relies on correct spelling. I'm uninstalling. |
|
[2012-01-26] A Google User: Average Post a change log! |
|
[2012-01-24] A Google User: Some clues just wrong; e.g. tides aren't caused by magnetism. Moving cursor difficult. |
