So here's my honest take on Crossword by puzzling.com. I've tested a bunch of word game apps and this one's pretty solid. The variety of puzzles and game modes is great, and I like how they tie the daily crossword to a fun trivia fact. The graphics look nice and it runs smoothly even on my older phone. The only real downsides are that the higher level upgrades can take forever, and the ads do get old after a while. But overall, it's a really polished crossword app that crossword fans will definitely enjoy.

Description

I’ve been using Crossword by puzzling.com for a couple months now. It’s basically a giant collection of crossword puzzles you can solve on your phone. Pretty solid app if you’re into word games and puzzles.

Here’s what you do: there’s a new daily crossword puzzle with themed clues, plus you can explore over 1,000 classic crossword puzzles. And it’s got a bunch of game modes too, like the extra-large ‘World’s Tallest’ crosswords. Took me a while to figure out some of the features, but overall it’s pretty user-friendly.

Look, if you’re a crossword junkie like me, you’ll probably love this app. It’s not perfect – the ads can get a little annoying if you don’t pay – but it does the job and there’s tons of content to keep you busy. Worth checking out for sure.
