"The actual crosswords and sudokus are great, and the navigation and UI work well and are attractively designed. The one big problem is that certain options do not save, which s a pain. Every time you start a new crossword you gave to set the options, or the defaults are applied."

"Cryptic crossword answers aren`t persisted between sessions, so I have to manually type my answers if I switch apps and resume later in the day. If this is fixed I`ll give 5*"

"I don`t actually subscribe to the Guardian itself so this app is great for getting access to the crosswords. The app itself works quite well and has a pretty good UI. But sorry guys. 32.99 a year is just waaaaay too much money to ask for this service in this day and age. If you brought the price down to say 1 pound a month then I`d definitely sign up. But at this price, I suspect only the most serious of crossword puzzle fanatics are willing to pay."

"Useless for crosswords, no anagram help. Subscription getting set up is a nightmare. Would have used more but it was just such a terrible set up. If you live puzzles, use a different app/ real paper."

"Constantly crashes out of whatever game I`m in and flashes that I`m not subscribed (I am, a yearly subscription). Reloads to work for a minute or so and then crashes again, which makes it unusable. I`m giving up!"

"How do I disable or change the notifications feature? It keeps buzzing on my phone too early in the a.m. and waking me up. Being disabled by a very debilitating illness, I can`t afford to lose sleep; neither is it safe for me to turn my phone off. All other Apps with regular notifications ``keep more respectful hours`` or only send notifications when the phone is connected to Data. This new feature is poorly conceived & unnecessary anyway as app users know new puzzles appear daily!"

"Imho not worth paying money for after the free trial. Yes it does crosswords well, and sudoku but as a Guardian subscriber I can get that. What I miss from the paper-paper are all the other puzzles futoshiki and others, plus Chris Maslanka`s puzzles."
