Pangrams for Negative User Reviews
✓ Tilted tilesThis game is now barely playable since they changed the alignment of the tiles. Please change the tiles back to the original symmetry. Please. Also, you should allow user to change colors and fonts..Version: 1.0.44
✓ Text size too largeAll of a sudden the text size is very large and the buttons at the bottom have disappeared, making the game unplayable!.Version: 1.0.9
✓ Buggy?Too often words played during the game are refused, only to be included in the valid word list the next day. What gives?.Version: 1.0.15
✓ Good app but need to remove slurs!The game I played today had a anti Semitic slur that starts with k. Please remove!.Version: 1.0.52
✓ AwfulIt could be fun if it worked. But the add and delete keys started to hide themselves yesterday and the game is unusable without being able to add or delete a word. I reinstalled the app and it still doesn’t work on my relatively new ipad..Version: 1.0.44
✓ Inappropriate words for 4+Should reconsider the recommended age or update filters..Version: 1.0.49
✓ Latest update ruined iPad useFont size suddenly absurdly large. Can't use in landscape mode any longer & barely usable in portrait model. Please fix. I got a swift response from the developer to my disappointment - who says a fix is in progress. Will update again when the fix is in. Thank you for listening. May 20 -- Issue with size is still not fixed. Even in portrait mode, the letters are much too big on ipad. I find it frustrating to try to use this app..Version: 1.0.11
✓ Stopped workingBeen using every day and last 2 days there have been no new puzzles. Are you guys out of business? Are you in China?.Version: 1.0.52
✓ So many missing wordsEvery day there are missing words which are not colloquial, specialist or uncommon. This is just making it too frustrating to use this app.Version: 1.0.9
✓ Stopped workingI loved this game. Played it every morning while I had my coffee for a couple of years. Then 2 days ago it just stopped working - no new panagrams. I’m bummed..Version: 1.0.52
✓ Offensive slur found in puzzleI wish I could say this was a good game, because it (almost) is. The puzzles are enjoyable, you can create rooms to play against other people, there are many positive elements. Yet the other day, I opened up the October 16th puzzle in hopes of having a good challenge, but was instead subjected to shock. I found that this puzzle deemed the F slur as an appropriate word to include. While this is indeed a word, it’s still an adjective/noun with an incredibly homophobic past. I find this completely unacceptable, and am extremely disappointed that you would include this word in your game. Definitely bumped the star rating down a few notches..Version: 1.0.18
✓ Needs workFun game, decent design, but needs to use a much better dictionary. In my last game alone, I got a "Nope" for really basic words like icily and pulpy. I'll stick with it to see if the accepted vocabulary improves, but I don't see myself playing this much until that happens..Version: 1.0.3
✓ Racial slurs in gamesSeriously?!? You have the n-word in there?? My kids play this app. Not anymore. Have some decency.Version: 1.0.49
✓ Not designed for iPadThe app is simply not designed for iPad. It only works in portrait mode, and none of the words found are listed on the page where you work, you have to go to a different page to find them. $1.99 wasted for iPad users..Version: 1.0.16
✓ No substitute for NYTimes BeeThe racial slurs included as acceptable words are alone enough to give this one star. Understanding slurs is one thing, being awarded points for them is another..Version: 1.0.19
✓ Does not workApp does not work. Requested refund from APP store..Version: 1.0.52
✓ Need to extend dictionary please!!!Can you please upgrade your dictionary. There are so so so so many “common” words missing, in every single puzzle there are at least two completely legit and common words it won’t accept. Infuriating. Will be happy to update review once that’s done..Version: 1.0.49
✓ BuggyThe app buffers everytime a new puzzle is loaded. The wheel of death is ever present and the only way to get rid of it is to delete the app - which deletes my stats!.Version: 1.0.5
✓ Obscure wordsThese puzzles are great, but up to one third of the words are so obscure that perhaps 1% of the reading public has never heard of them. And annoyingly, some words are accepted in both American and British spellings. If they want these puzzles to be engaging and fun, they should stick to words that people have actually heard and used..Version: 1.0.15
✓ Doesn’t work on small screenIt happily let me pay and download but on my iphone se, you can’t see the bottom of the letter circle nor any of the buttons so you can’t play. Complete waste of money. Or if there’s a setting somewhere that I’m missing, please let me know and I’ll change my review..Version: 1.0.5
✓ Acceptable words are questionableI have loved NYT’s Spelling Bee, so I figured this would be close to the same experience. It’s close, but it’s just not as satisfying to play. Many words that should be accepted aren’t, and many of the words they do accept aren’t actual words. NYT has a more reliable word database and is more rewarding to play, in my opinion. I’ll keep playing this since I already paid for it, but it wasn’t worth the spend to me..Version: 1.0.16
✓ Offensive, uncertified dictionary databaseI wanted to choose 0 stars but... I just deleted this app. There was an offensive, racist pejorative once I revealed the answer list. I took a screen shot to share with the developers if they care. This app is not checked by humans before daily puzzles are pushed out. Whatever database this app pulls from includes slang, racist and random non-English dictionary words that decent people would never think to type into a word game and therefore will probably never win/complete a game. I prefer The NY Times Spelling Bee game. Words in Spelling Bee are not offensive and are from official English dictionaries so I win/complete most and if not at least I learn something..Version: 1.0.19
✓ Common words left outThe functionality of this is fine, but every puzzle I've done so far leaves out common words. For example, the last one I completed left out "airily.".Version: 1.0.19
✓ IPad version needs some workOverall I enjoy this app, but it definitely needs some work and more consistent updates from what I can tell from the reviews. For instance, someone in May mentioned that the iPad version does not work in landscape mode...which is super annoying. It’s almost the end of August and that isn’t fixed. You can only go back 1 week for the daily grams. I think we should have access to whatever the past history has been. I purchased this so I could play more often than the daily NYT one, but come to find out I did the past week and that’s it. There aren’t many options and no settings to change. I SWEAR, I’ve typed words in multiple times and I get a “nope” only to find that that word was one of the words I missed the next day. Not just once, dozens of times this has happened. I don’t understand the creating game room feature. Looking forward to updates and I’ll gladly increase this rating..Version: 1.0.16
✓ Cannot play game in landscape mode with last updateI play this game in landscape mode on my iPad. The recent update causes the Delete button and Submit button to hide under the Words/Play/Scores panel, thus I cannot play while in landscape. It has functional spacing in Portrait, but just barely. Very frustrating. Suspect that the UI change for small screens is the problem. Will remain 1-star. Is your fix to this issue is to not allow landscape mode play at all? Not satisfactory. Also recommend that player’s word list be visible on Play page rather than having to switch to another page..Version: 1.0.11
✓ Great...one big but!We love the NYT Spelling Bee, but wanted to play against each other. This app has been perfect for that. The one major issue we’ve found related to the dictionary. I’m playing a game right now that rejects the word “dollhouses”—the singular is okay—but it thinks “holo” is a word that most people use. There appears no rhyme or reason to the words allowed. We think better dictionary curation is in order. It would also be great to be able to delete players no longer involved. There’s no help or settings options. But here’s the worst of it: the un-curated dictionaries include racial epitaphs. I’ve deleted the app as a result, even though this is the best of the pangram apps..Version: 1.0.52
✓ IrritatingNot certain what they are using as a word source, but it is repeatedly maddening to try a valid, non-obscure word*, have it rejected and then find that something like “hmmm” is considered a word for the puzzle. *dictionary verified.Version: 1.0.49
✓ Good game but needs to eliminate the slursThere’s a lot to love about this game and the functionality, I do just wish they could eliminate that obviously offensive racial slurs. Seeing them when I tap to see the answers is so disappointing..Version: 1.0.52
✓ November 4 puzzleWhen I looked up the answers to see what words I missed, one of the words on the list was an ethnic slur..Version: 1.0.19
✓ Poor imitation of the NYT Spelling BeeNot pleased. Word list is not close to acceptable. Rejected “turgor” and “googol” and many others used in the Bee. The words they DO accept border on nonsensical. If you think that you are getting a close facsimile of the NYT Spelling Bee you are in for a bitter disappointment!.Version: 1.0.18
