Much more realistic play than the other app I found, with nicely customizable options/rules. My only complaints are that the card movement is much more difficult than the other app, and the graphic sizing/appearance may not be optimal. Still, the best option I've seen for someone wanting to play a more realistic version of the game! :-)

Come On!! I like the game. Pretty close to realistic play. HOWEVER: Ths graphics are a little small where the players bid. AND the AI isn't great: if it is pretty obvious that points should be played to assist your partner, do it! The computer partner will hold point cards until it's obvious that the other team has all the tricks. How can you set your opponents if your partner won't help? I wish it could be an option to be multi-player. Other than those complaints, it's pretty close to real.

No online multiplayer is disappointing. Game is still fun. Automated partner is next to useless... Update: After playing for about a month, I'd like to give an update. There is no redeal function. Not sure how random the game actually is, seems like every time I pass on the bid, the other team seems to take every trick. Also pertaining to randomized dealing, the Blackbird (Rook) card is dealt to me maybe 10% of the time. Seems like player to my left or my partner always has the Blackbird.
