Latest update (5/21/19) has serious problem. If you leave the app for any reason, all your entries are cleared when you go back. I completed the form at Stand Alone and sent an email on 5/21 but no response yet. Revised 5/24: I just got an update that fixes the problem. I can now say that I'm quite pleased with the software. I've been using it since it came out on Palm Pilots - - that was years ago.

used to be a good app I have used it for many years starting with a palm pilot then to an iPhone 4 then to android, now it won't show times at the end of the game like it used to

Just checked, works here. Sure you have an internet connection or are solving a puzzle others have solved? Did you use a hint on the last square? Market didn't support this app, people use the free stuff while we get 1 star reviews over minor things I could fix with clear feedback, but no money in android, just VCs buying users for quick bucks

This app used to work great, and then it suddenly stopped responding. I've cleared the data and cache and uninstalled and reinstalled the app (vanilla install), and it still doesn't work. Update: Have not used this app in 2 years since my review and got another response back from the developer 2 years later that my review was "arbitrary." Ok well arbitrarily speaking, I guess me and the dozens of others just happened upon the same exact problem using it. The review stays. Best of luck mate👍🏼

Why would it work great then just stop? Real users have been fighting back saying it's worked fine for a decade while I've seen no evidence to support this other than your phone locking up for non crosswords reasons
