Ratings and reviews

It's nice to have dark mode, however I have to say the difficulty on this is strangely high. I'm no sudoku master, but I'm pretty good, & even on easy the puzzles are pretty difficult. Of the dozen or so other sudoku apps I've used, it's like the "easy" setting on this is equivalent to a "hard" setting on other apps. Just a bit frustrating. Ads are only a bottom banner, which is great. Difficulty is more my stupid brains fault, not the devs, so this is a good one for dark mode sudoku.

I like Dark Sudoku because it is the only app that supports highlighting of candidates, to solve puzzles with Chaining Strategies. But I miss an option to scan sudoku puzzles from papers or websites to import them. There is also no option to import a sudoku puzzle scanned with another app.

The app did not autosave my game! Hit "resume" to see the game completely reset. Uninstalled it instantly, how annoying. Also, if you're used to other Sudoku apps beware: this app will not mark your mistakes as you go. Not a bug (I think), just makes the game a little harder.
