Crosswords Classic App Reviews

This is my favorite crossword app. It has tons of daily crosswords & is free with no ads.

One of the first apps I ever got on my iPad, really love it. Recently not downloading all the puzzles I used to get. Only problem

I use this almost daily. The one issue I have are the occasional puzzles where there are apparently several letters in one box as part of the solution. There’s no way to enter that, so there’s no way to solve the puzzle. It’s rather irritating and I end up deleting them/not bothering when I come across them—it’s just not obvious at first.

I have had this app on both my iPhone and iPad for several years now and I love it. Recently the app on my iPad got messed up so I deleted it and reinstalled. The options gear was missing on the reinstall and I was unable to change the settings to my liking. I contacted Customer Service (Ben) who investigated the issue and created an update to fix it. I’m a happy Crosswords Classic geek again!

I love the endless stream of puzzles and can choose source/difficulty. The UI is great as you can use left thumb on arrows to scroll through clues and it always shows both directional clues on whatever square youre on. One of the oldest apps ive owned and amazed its held up so long, just had to finally post a review! Also appreciate diff options like i enjoy the red letter mode for incorrect letters life is too short to have to wrangle a puzzle to trip over bad guesses!

It would be so much easier to be able to filter the difficulty list by source and also to filter the source list by digit. Could you please add this in? Thank you!

This app needs night mode.

I’ve had this app for YEARS. Back in the day Starbucks used to have these cards with promo codes to get certain paid apps for free and this was one of them. I love this crossword app. Easily the best one out there. But then they stopped supporting this one because they have a different one you can pay for and they never decommissioned this, thankfully. I do use the Hints feature on some of the harder puzzles and I really wish they’d stop using OneAcross.com which is basically just a spam ad

I’ve had this app for a few years but it has recently quit downloading new puzzles. Haven’t been able to download one since May 27. Disappointing.

I’ve used this app for years and its been great. However, I’ve noticed that crossword providers have been shrinking and lately none of the Newsday Crosswords are available. What’s going on?
