Ratings and reviews

Love having an app to play CTC content. Been having reoccurring issues after loading a lot of puzzles (I'd imagine 80+): 1, when trying to load in a new puzzle from a link, it will show the "received a puzzle" popup, click save, the popup shows up again, and clicking save results "overwrite existing" popup. 2, after finishing a puzzle, returning to puzzles list results in white screen. Must restart app, and doesn't always save puzzle progress. Must delete old puzzles to restore app usage.

Love the app, I would add a feature in the settings that lets you toggle on and off the auto deselection of highlighted fields on user input. You could maybe add a double tap feature to remove highlight? For beginners to sudoku like me this would help to not have to use the color system to find markup the board. Just a thought great app nonetheless!

The app is fantastic! The puzzles are all well designed and challenging, the custom puzzles featured on their YouTube channel are incredibly creative and very fun, and everything is intuitive and easy to use. My one comment is not even a complaint about the app itself, rather the technical limitations it's under. I wish the puzzle creator had the ability to add more custom rules. A sudoku solver that can check Rembrandts, thermos, and palindromes would be absurd, but it would be incredible.
