I love this app for helping me with my cryptogram puzzles since I just use "?" for any unknown letters & then type in the known letters--it's a great app for that feature, however, when I try to use it to help me with a crossword puzzle, I cannot find any way of putting in a clue (in addition to putting in the known and unknown letters). I did pull up the settings, but there was nothing helpful. The HELP section said to use the magnifying glass icon, but not showing anywhere. So, it's useless!

Hi Lisa, thanks for the question. The app has a built in thesaurus so you can put a word in from the clue to find synonyms. You can then use the filters to narrow down the results, eg by using the crossword pattern (if you have known letters). Hope that helps.

I could not get this app to solve NOT EVEN 1 CLUE from a crossword puzzle in a popular magazine. I tried all the vices it provided, nothing worked & since the app doesn't provide a Q&A - Help option, is completely useless. And per every Rating Scale on Google Play there is no option for a -0- stars rating. In reply to your response below.... That's what I Thought too! 👣

Sorry to hear that Toki, the main search feature of the app is to find words when you only have a few letters, eg C??S?W??D -> gives crossword. The app also has a built in thesaurus which is useful for suggesting answers to crossword clues.

This is my go-to app whenever I need help with words. It's more than a crossword solver, it can help with codewords (my favourite puzzle), anagrams, and now I have been told by the developer that it can suggest rhyming words. This has now just made it indispensable, to the extent that I'm going to pay for the pro version. Hopefully the kids will understand where and why their inheritance is going.

Thanks for the brilliant review Bob and I hope the app helps with the poems for the cards. Hopefully there will be a little money left over for the kids when you buy the pro version 😂
