About this game

Sudoku Help provides puzzles for you, in the categories Easy, Medium, and Hard. It also enables you to enter a puzzle of your own. Pencil marks are generated automatically. You can request a hint for the next step. For this app, both landscape and portrait orientations are supported. You can copy and paste sudoku puzzles as simple strings of 81 characters. Version 1.19 introduces the Quick Mode, enabling you to make the next step simply by touching either some highlighted square or the Give Hint button.

For those who are unfamiliar with Sudoku:
All digits 1, 2, ..., 9 must occur
- in each of the nine (horizontal) rows
- in each of the nine (vertical) columns
- in each of the nine 3 x 3 subgrids (separated by thick lines)

Ratings and reviews

It sure needs a nicer UI but it's the only app I found so far that will let you enter a board and help you with the next move so you can learn what you missed. Apps that only show you a full solution are pointless!

This app is very helpful as it quickly gives me hints and automatically generates pencilmarks. It helps me get through the hard puzzles very quickly. I rate it a perfect 10/10.

If you delete the small numbers and you do not hit the right spot at any time, all the deleted numbers reappear. This is very frustrating.
