horrible

tlexvold · 9 years ago · v1.3

why do you have to fill in the letters with the grid upside down and backwards?

This app is great...

uneequeone · 9 years ago · v1.3

but people are way too fast to judge. crossword construction requires patience and good sense and apparently the bad reviews come from those with neither. stick to candy crush. this app takes some getting used to - meaning you actually have to look through the menus and try a few different things - but soon its quite simple to understand. i am a professional, published and paid constructor and have used this app since release. it is unfortunate that bad reviews probably have prevented further updates...otherwise 5 stars.

So Disappointed !

Nakamaonepiece · 10 years ago · v1.3

No documentation, no website...no possibility to create your own wordlist though the description states you can do so. Im so disappointed.

:(

JofSpades · 13 years ago · v1.1

Its not worth a dollar. The controls are confusing and it crashes every time I try to open the settings. I want my money back.

Garbage

WillBike11 · 12 years ago · v1.3

Dont waste your money...agree with the other reviewer.

Crashes

tekir kedi · 11 years ago · v1.3

1 Down - Useless item or slang reference to sexual anatomy. 4 Down - Situation that occurs when numerous vehicles meet abruptly in an intersection. 2 Across - App _____________ to open after the 1st time. 3 Across - Depressed state of being after purchasing this product.

Bad!

Gnuberry · 11 years ago · v1.3

The grid never changes size or width or length
