Word Warp - A Word Puzzle Game for Negative User Reviews
✓ Don’t like the updated version at all.I Used to really like the game but do not like the update that was done last week..Version: 3.4.1
✓ One huge new glitchI have had this game on my iPods, iPads, and iPhones for over 10 years, and it has been one of my most-played games. Since I got my iPhone 12, however, there has been a glitch that has bumped the game from 5+ stars down to 3. I often play Word Warp when I wake up in the night, so I am lying down while playing. I play in Portrait mode. If, however, I tilt the phone, especially between rounds, the game board moves off the top of the screen so that all I can see is the three buttons for Warp, Last, and Got It, plus the End button. I tried just waiting to see if it would correct its self but apparently the timer is running, because after the set time has elapsed, it ends the game, as I have been unable to make any words. The alternative is to end the game. This has happened several times now. There is no setting to allow me to play only in portrait mode, which is disappointing. When this happens after one or two rounds, it is annoying, but when I have played 7 or 8 (or more) it is infuriating. Please fix, so I can get back to playing one of my favorite games!.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Hate the recent updateI used to love this app but the new update has made it no where near as good. The score doesn’t appear anymore. It is permanently stuck on 0 which is annoying if you think you are getting a high score and there’s no record of how well you’re doing. And the letters go back to the same order each time now. It was much better before..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Bring back the last oneVery disappointed with the new version. Letter order changes and suddenly it only wants one six letter word..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Mobility Ware has messed this up!A crushing number of advertisements!! At least one after every round and it’s often impossible to get out of the ad without closing the application and opening it again. If you can ever get through the ads, it’s a good game.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Add heavyI really enjoy this app and would be happy to pay for it to get rid of the adds. I have deleted the app purely because of the adds that just keep bombarding you..Version: 3.3.4
✓ THERE IS NO INTELLIGENT REASON for you to change the DEFINITIONS format🔥 I’ve been playing this game for several years solely because of the word definitions, derivations, definitions in various languages and photos. This feature in invaluable to people who choose to expand their education in linguistics. I can’t imagine any users complaining about the feature, so I’m assuming that it was the creators of this app who decided to no longer provide it this feature. Another feature that has changed is that users are forced to watch long ads. Before this change, users could simply opt out by stopping playing and then “reboot”. This was obviously a financial decision. Perhaps the admins weren’t satisfied by their income. Please return to the former status. Please. The updated version is suitable for Middle School kids. This change is insulting. If the update remains as is, I’ll delete it and write a review and post on several online sites. UPDATE: After receiving no response to my email, which is copied above, this review follows suit. I did find a better app which offers the definition style that you deleted..Version: 3.5.1
✓ What have you done!Have loved playing this game for many years but the recent update and the changes made has ruined the enjoyment for me. From the letter display, where the ads occur and the way the game info is indicated have all made it clunky and awkward.....no longer enjoyable. Looks like I’ll have to look for a different game..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Do NOT download this app!!!In the name of all that is decent, run now. A month ago, they started running ads after EVERY Word Warp game instead of after every few. I don’t like it, but I can accept it. But over three weeks ago, they started running an ad that plays loud music every time it plays. Not welcome at times when you’re playing discreetly, obviously. Within a week, this ad started playing after EVERY single game, without exception. Their customer support strung me along, promising me that they would “take care of” this...at one point telling me that HAD taken care of it. They have not; it’s STILL running after every game, and they’ve stopped responding now. What I can’t believe is the sheer idiocy of thinking they can do this without offending players both loyal and new (not to mention the sheer idiocy of the advertiser imagining that this ad is doing their company any good). Please...boycott stupidity. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP!!! UPDATE: I was told by technical support that they would be working to remove the offensive ad with the soundtrack, but that it would take “several weeks to do the programming.” (Why?) As it turns out, they lied. When I checked today, this same offensive ad was still playing after almost every game. But just now, I find that a brand new ad has been added — and it also has a soundtrack that plays loudly. This is beyond unacceptable. I repeat: DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP!!! And please, boycott every other product this lame company produces..Version: 3.3.3
✓ I’m done with this game.I’ve played this game literally for years. The most recent update went from a couple of seconds to start to 45 seconds before anything happened. Bought a new iPhone, sped up loading, but now the ads play at max volume even with the volume switch off and Sound set to Off in the game. Pity, the game used to be fun..Version: 3.4.3
✓ Used to love this gameHowever there appears to be s major bug with one advertisement locking the whole game and using battery power on iPhone.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Latest update sucksYou ruined a perfectly good and addictive game. You just lost me. Deleting now..Version: 3.4.1
✓ The last update helpsThe very last update has addressed several of the problems created in the previous update. Especially on the iPhone. BUT the iPad version is still really buggy - the freezes and glitches are so annoying that (for the seconded time) I am deleting this app. I play it to relax, not to feel like throwing the iPad across the room in frustration..Version: 3.4.3
✓ Word warpI loved this game, until they started to add ads, that you can’t avoid. I would be willing to buy the app to avoid the silly ads..Version: 3.4.2
✓ Word warpDon’t like the new format.Version: 3.4.1
✓ DeletedWas a great game which I played every day. The increased adds are over the top and very annoying, hence deleted the app..Version: 3.4.2
✓ What Happened?This isn’t the first time I’ve seen a developer update an app and actually made it worse than the original, but sheesh. More time is now needed each round. I’m wasting 20-30 seconds each round having to retype words that did not properly populate in the answer box because you press the letter you want and 1/3rd of the time the app doesn’t register it. This is a brand new issue directly related to the update. My suggestion: can it and go back to the original. It’s just that bad. While I’m glad they added some new words, it’s time to look at those words and ask yourself how often they are really used in conversation or writing? Then make further edits..Version: 3.5.1
✓ SucksThis new version totally sucks. I tap the letters half don't move and I get no score. Please bring back old version. I have been playing this for years and had no problems. Time to find a new game that actually works.😠.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Upgrade very disappointingThis was a very nifty word game - great for short bursts of play. The latest update slowed down the responsiveness, and made it a lot clunkier to play. And the ads are much longer and more annoying than ever. So disappointing, and consequently I play it much less now..Version: 3.4.2
✓ BabyI don’t like the latest version because it is slower and there is no time out. As well, the order of the letters switch once you have spelt a word which makes the game slower. Thank you for asking my opinion..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Unfortunately on the verge of deleting this appThis game used to be great when I first started playing it a few years ago. When the ads in between rounds started, I was fine with it because I know ads are necessary and everything we do via technology involves ads. The issue I’m having now (and have been for like two months now) is that in between rounds when the ads show, 90% of the time my screen ends up stuck on an ad that I can’t exit out of. I close the app and reopen it and the same 2-3 ads come up without a way to exit out of. I have already left a review about this not long ago, and all the creators said was to go onto their website and fill out a formal complaint. I did as they said, in hopes of them taking my complaint into consideration, but nothing has changed and it’s been weeks since I submitted my complaint onto their website. They have given me no choice but to leave this review for them and forewarn others before they download this app that you will be spending more time exiting out the game to get rid of the frozen ad than you will actually playing the rounds. This is my last time speaking out about this. If nothing is done about this within the next week or so, I’m deleting the app and also telling everyone I know to not download this ad-infested game..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Too many adsThe new version is quite annoying with way too many interruptions. One add per game seems enough..Version: 3.4.2
✓ Word warpI do not like how you changed the game. The 1 word game is too long. Other than that I enjoy challenging myself.Version: 3.4.2
✓ Used to love it ... now horribleI was soooo addicted to this game. But the latest update has ruined it. The typeface is ugly and when I enter a word it puts the letters back in the previous order, where it used to leave them in the order you just used (which helped when typing in shorter versions of the word). Now hate it. So sad ☹️.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Way too many ads.This has been the most ridiculous amount of ads of any download I have ever done. It’s just not that great of a game to have to deal with that much extra stuff. After reading through some of the other reviews, it is obvious that the developers of this must have a single digit IQ. Not listening to that Many people about an issue is a problem. Fortunately, I do not have anything else by just developer download it, otherwise, I would delete it. I am also going to post this anywhere. I can find a link on social media. I got your reply. The link to contact you is dead. Anyway, the amount and duration of ads for your app is ridiculous. Look at how many comments about that are posted. I know of no others nearly this ridiculous. Next worst is less than half..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Would be a good app…if only you weren’t bombarded with ads that take multiple taps to dismiss, ads for apps which aren’t appropriate, etc..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Can only do one word!Last update is awful. I only have the option to find one 6-letter word!!! No point playing anymore. I’m deleting it..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Oh Gosh Another “Improvement”???Well I think this is the final straw; gotta find another game similar. Because, wow, they just keep trying to fix stuff that isn’t broken while ignoring the one thing EVERYone wants... less ADS! Last improvement, they turned the sound into these annoying little squeaks. Now this time they have made the letters that you choose from too large. They make my eyes cross! Maybe if they had someone who is more in tune with what interface components make for a better play experience AND more acceptable words, AND a more creative way of producing the game without the ads ‘ad-nauseum’. Til then I’ll be signing off. The fun is no longer worth the hassle..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Was good, now too many Ads.It used to be a great game with ads periodically. Now there is a 5 second video ad between each game. Looking for a new game with fewer ads..Version: 3.3.3
✓ What?Who is the idiot who this was an improvement? Everything is worse. Even a challenge to send criticism..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Disappointing ‘upgrade’Used to love this game. Foolishly accepted the upgrade today. No longer works. Fail..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Paid versionWhy can’t you make a paid version so we don’t have to look at all the stupid long ads Love this game because it’s basic without the flash but the ads are painful.Version: 3.5.1
✓ ReviewLoved this game until the new version came. Now i very much dislike the font so will not be playing any more!.Version: 3.4.0
✓ Bring back the previous modelI font like the upgraded look of WordWarp. Seriously thinking about deleting it permanently and looking for a replacement. Selected letters often do not register. It is no longer a quick, relaxing game..Version: 3.4.1
✓ DisappointedI just downloaded the new version and I’m disappointed to say the least. The app has frozen and no amount of tinkering seems to fix it. I click on Continue and it exits the screen. I’m sure if I deleted it it would resume but I’d likely lose everything. The way the app works now is less efficient. The letters are now jumbled after making an entry. This means you have to go searching for your letters to enter a new word. Too bad it used to be a fun game. 😏.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Update Please?Love it. Simple yet at times testing. However at the moment I keep getting an error message saying that the developer needs to update the app to IOS 11. Has this happened yet? If not when? I like this game a lot..Version: 3.3.3
✓ Word warpGreat game to keep my brain sharp but too many ads. Also the choice of some words is strange. Some words accepted in crossword clues are not accepted ie tented and others are ie duh, ooh, aha which more sound effects than words. I agree totally. That said , it is a favourite game for me. Also I tried Homescapes, didn’t like it, deleted but it popped up and I can’t get rid of it to play Word Warp..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Not a huge fan of changeI have played Word Warp for years and LOVE it, finding it a great way to both relax and keep my mind engaged. But today when I went to play there was now a privacy disclaimer and terms of use that needed reading and agreeing to. I almost closed the thing and thought “there went another of my favorites”, but I didn’t, I agreed and proceeded. Well, I truly dislike the font and the game is so sluggish now and takes a noticeable pause to load a new frame. And there’s a freaking ad after every single game frame! Some of them are now video ads that you have no choice but to watch the entire 30 second ad. Seriously frustrated and disappointed, actually bordering on angry. I accept your right/need to insert ads; I don’t appreciate being held hostage to them. I’ll sleep on this but seriously I think you lost a rabid fan with this move. Really disappointed..Version: 3.4.1
✓ The update has ruined this gameUsed to LOVE this. Played every day. And now not only is the new design hideous, but there seems to be something off with the sensitivity because it takes several taps to select a letter. Pleeeeeeease fix this, I want my game back..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Good game destroyed by adsEnjoyable game that is now unplayable. Long ads that you cannot skip through mark this as an app to be deleted..Version: 3.5.1
✓ The ads are killing this app.It’s a good game but every time you complete a game, there are two ads that lock the app for 30 seconds. It’s very frustrating..Version: 3.3.4
✓ Way to many addsI have been playing this game for years ~ it is or has been my favorite go to game. I purchased a license to avoid the ads. When I got messages on my iPhone that the app would not work on new version of iOS I was concerned ~ can’t tell you how relived I was when the app was updated. But I feel betrayed now that I have to wade through ad after ad after ad what a waste it is with great sadness that I am now deleting this app from my phone I’ve tried to play regardless of the adds but just can’t take it anymore. Not only am I forced to sit through ads that are as long as it took me to solve the game (or longer) it is usually the same ad over and over again. If and when the developers get a clue and honor the agreement made by my purchasing an ad free version I’ll be the first one to reinstall.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Roll back the update ASAPHave to add my complete disappointment in the new update. Game feels completely different and not in a good way. It’s clunkier, less responsive, and a complete downgrade from what it was. What it was was simple, enjoyable, and timeless. If any updates are to occur it should have been to keep the timer up when you’ve completed the board and less repeats of boards. I’ll check back but if this version is to stay then I will have to delete after a decade of enjoying it. What a shame, hopefully the administrators take heed of all the negative feedback this update has been getting - it seems users are 100% in agreement since I didn’t see any positive reviews yet of this latest version..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Forced UpdateLoved the game until the last forced update. Now the sound won’t stay off and the ads are longer. How can I get an ad-free version? I still can’t turn off the sound on some ads. I can’t play in public..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Do NOT load this app!!!You will waste half your time watching ads, some with long videos that you can’t get out of. There is an ad or two after EVERY game you play. Other than the ads, it is truly a great game!! Honest! Too bad they spoiled a great game with all the ads! ————————————————————— Update: there are still ads between each game but with the recent 3.4.0 version there is no way to easily silence the audio on the ads and they blare at full volume between games. This prevents you from playing the game when there are people around. In the settings tab on 3.4.0 there is a “Mute audio” box that I have checked about ten times now but when you hit the “back” button at the bottom of the settings screen, the “Mute Audio” box doesn’t stay checked (iPhone 10R) and the ads blare on. This is a bug in the 3.4.0 version that needs fixed. Another issue with the 3.4.0 version is the size of the letter in the white bubbles. They are HUGE in this version. Very little “white space” around the letter. It is annoying and very distracting. Developers; if you can’t fix these issues, please go back to the 3.3.4 version where these issues were tolerable. It seems that you make this game worse with every new version. It truly is a really great game if it wasn’t for all the ads, the blaring audio volume and the HUGE letters in the bubbles. Come on guys, you’re supposed to be developers, let’s get it right and make Word Warp the best game app ever!! Thanks.Version: 3.4.1
✓ They’ve ruined a good gameI’ve played Word Warp every day for years. It’s an enjoyable, challenging, and mind-sharpening game. Over the last two days, it has changed dramatically. On the one time I’ve been able to get it to work, the interface had lost it’s simple class. The letters were suddenly very large and in a font that made them almost hard to read. On that one time, an ad ran before and after the game. An ad had previously never run before playing a game. But worst of all, I’ve only been able to get it to work that one time. Every other time the game has crashed when I’ve tried to play it. My phone’s iOS is current, and I’ve tried restarting the phone, but it still crashes every time. They’ve taken a game I thoroughly enjoyed playing, and destroyed it..Version: 3.4.0
✓ New displayYou’ve changed the font and display, and now ‘one word’ entries. Not a fan.Version: 3.4.1
✓ GoodNo bugs, dictionary support, good brain entertainment. Would like option for British English spelling. The advertising annoys me. I don’t mind silent adverts but it’s invasive and embarrassing to suddenly have a video advert blast into your world..Version: 3.3.3
✓ Word WarpSaw that the app had been updated. Went to play and game will not start. Good job guys..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Never Gets Old“This is the only game I can't stop playing. I've had this game since iPhone 3G, and though it's not perfect, I'll keep playing it as long as it's supported. There isn't a feeling more exhilarating than when you're about to run out of time and you still haven't found the six letter word, or more satisfying than when you discover it when in the final seconds. To keep your record streak going. Highly recommend this to word game lovers.” 5 Stars.... I just found this five star review I was contemplating writing a few years ago and then the phone broke and after replacing it I forgot about it. Fast forward a couple years I remembered how much I loved this simple yet addictive game and decided to download it again. Wish I hadn’t as the developer has decided to turn it into a never ending stream of advertisements unless you pay... Now the occasional ad is to be expected on a free game and I can’t begrudge them for ads, but it is literally in between every single round now. It was nowhere near that frequent a few years back and I mean not even close. This great time waster game has became a waste of time since you may now spend as much time watching ads as you do playing a round and that’s with the ability to skip the ad after a few seconds! And why pay to avoid the ads when the money obviously doesn’t go into improving the game. Very disappointed..Version: 3.3.4
✓ Word Warp has been warpedThere is something seriously wrong with the recent update of Word Warp. No scores, only one word to find in each game. What has happened???.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Changes!I don’t know what changes you made recently, but they have ruined the game. The game no longer works properly! The font is horrible to work with!!! I can’t even talk about all the HORRIBLE ads anymore. What a shame. It was and could be such a lovely game to play. But now it causes more stress than benefit. You know, some of us, I am sure, would have been willing to pay a reasonable fee in order to have an ad free word game to enjoy. It really is too bad and I regret no longer being able to play it..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Trouble with game since updatedThis was one of my favs but now I am having trouble with it since it was updated. The score sometimes gets stuck so it doesn’t add - it just stays on the same score after each round. I tried shutting it down and turning my phone off, but still having problems. Please fix this! Also, buttons are less sensitive so sometimes have to tap them a couple of times for it to register. Would like to see the app return to moving the letters into the order of the last guess rather than the letters being fixed until the next shuffle. This was a great game- with a few changes, it could be great again!.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Too many adsPreviously rated at 4 stars but reduced to 2 because of excessive and lengthy ads..Version: 3.4.2
✓ Timer removeThe timer should be optional. Not everything needs to be a race.....Version: 3.3.4
✓ You ruined itI’ve been using this app for over a decade and have loved it until now. The latest release is awful - the interface is more klunky. The font is too large, and there are no settings options to reduce the font display size. And it now takes two or three touches to select a letter to be included in the word you’re creating - it’s like the label of the letter block is misaligned or too small or something. Also, the algorithm for how the selectable letters display after you enter a word is different - can’t put my finger on it, but whatever my “muscle memory” was used to is not working the same way anymore. An app I used to look forward to as a break between demands on my time is no longer fun. You ruined it..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Too many adsGreat game but loads of ads..Version: 3.3.4
✓ Want the old version backI loved this game, until the last update. Now it won’t track your score, and is really glitchy. Whatever you thought you were fixing wasn’t an issue. Please give us back the old version..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Super Loud Ads even on MuteI have been addicted to this game for many years, but now I can’t play. Every time I have two minutes, I take out my phone and play a round. I even like to get in a couple rounds before I fall asleep, but these ads after every round are loud and can’t be muted. The only way is to turn down the volume of the phone ( and risk missing an important call ) imaging having a minute at work and playing a round or standing in line at the checkout, all of a sudden blaring music — everyone jumps and I’m busted. Same thing at night! I paid to have no ads, and here I am playing my favorite game and being blasted with these obnoxious ads. I just don’t play any more. Can’t risk it..Version: 3.4.2
✓ Don’t like the new versionAfter you warp, you can no longer view your last word. Don’t like the instant warp. Liked the old animations. Don’t like that, after you make a word, the remaining letters are warped. This makes it more difficult to, say, add “ing ” or “s” to a word. Changing the game just to make it more difficult is not appreciated. I suppose the larger numbers are supposed to make them easier to read. They don’t. On my iPhone 11, the game got stuck in a mode where there was only one six letter word. No other words. I could not find a menu item to cancel this. Restarting the game or the phone did not change it. I think it’s a bug. Used to love this game. Not happy anymore. I’ve installed another word game. But, there is nothing else like Word Warp. Too bad..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Don’t bother!I have been playing this app for years, however the new update has ruined this game. Many years ago, I paid for the full version with no ads, however the developers don’t seem to care about their loyal players as I now have ads after every game again. The new font is not appealing and the reaction speed in the game lags. It worked fine before, so why destroy it?!.Version: 3.4.3
✓ The recent change has made it so much worse.I’m writing this on September 6, 2020. The game just updated a few days ago. It has made it much worse. There is no pause so you have to stop the game completely . Then you have to login again and see again the Mobility Ware logo. The ads after each game. I’ve been playing it for so long even before the ads. They are annoying but you can live with them. When you write a word the letters go back randomly not like they did before. I would’ve hoped that an improvement would’ve made it better for example to keep the time it took you to solve the puzzle. I’m so disappointed I am playing it much less frequently. I’m giving it to stars because it seems to be good for your mind. Other than that one star would suffice..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Mr EdirinThis is a very bad version I don’t like it Wish to revert to previous version.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Current version ruinedLoved the previous versions. This one has too many ads. And no option to pay to remove them.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Game freezesThe game freezes frequently, and I have to restart my phone to continue playing - which I never had to do with the old version. Been worse since the latest bug fix. Come on, get your act together, there was nothing wrong with the old version..Version: 3.4.2
✓ Not so greatSo far the only real complaint is the complete lack of a real vocabulary range . Some "words" don't even exist according to the very same dictionary you are connected to ( for example "sots" which comes up often in the results but has no definition when you tap it )... And it does not accept a lot of the words that I know are real words , but clearly aren't used inside the US very often. A bit disappointing if you are slightly intellectual and looking for a real challenge..Version: 0
✓ Updated Program full of bugsScore updating doesn’t work among other errors.Version: 3.4.2
✓ Terrible UpdateThis has been my go-to game since my first iPhone, ages ago. I could forgive all the obnoxious, interrupting ads because if you turned off the WiFi, it solved that issue (I’m still irked that I paid for the ad-free app and got screwed on that count when they decided to take everyone’s money and put ads back in). I can’t forgive the new update though for a whole host of reasons: 1. The text change is terrible. The font is bigger, brighter and hard on the eyes. 2. The text change screwed up the placement. Nothing is centered or aligned properly. 3. They removed the ability to pause the game. (Oh look, they brought that back a day later after everyone complained) 4. The buttons used to be super sensitive and intuitive. You could type in words super fast. Not anymore. I sometimes have to tap a letter multiple times for it to register and just as many times for it to take the word. 5. The ads are even more obnoxious than they used to be, if that’s possible. The app looked and functioned just fine. Why go and break what wasn’t broken? This wasn’t an update, it was a downgrade..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Used to be a great gamePlayed Word Warp regularly for years until it was upgraded this week. First, it kept crashing. Plus, I can’t shrink the screen on the iPhone version anymore. Worst is the loss of touch sensitivity. You must be deliberate in tapping the letters or else they won’t be chosen, which really slows down the game because your word ends up having missing letters and you have to renter it more carefully. Also, the ads have become very annoying because there is one after every game and they are longer than it takes to play the game. You can’t close and reopen the game to clear the ad. It’s been a good run, but I deleted Word Warp. I’m looking for a new word game like Word Warp used to be - simple, clean interface without a lot of graphics, ads, music, in-app purchases, increasing levels, required multiplayer, or other annoyances. I’m willing to pay for a good game. I’ve been looking at best IOS word game reviews, and so far none grab me..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Game Stopped Counting Rounds etc.2nd UPDATE: Game stopped counting Rounds at 102. And in Dark Mode, Help text is same White font as entry field. And Support click goes to “Safari cannot find this page”. And, worst of all, to get your “fix” for avoiding the Clipboard connection, I had to Update. The newest versions play loud head-banging audio EVEN WITH THE MUTE BUTTON ON. Sorry but I have to drop all your stars now, and Uninstall the app. Bye bye. UPDATE: Developer responded by email with an Update one business day later that fixed the issue! Great! When I resume or boot the game from scratch, I see a Banner saying “WordWarp copied Clipboard from <any open app with contents in clipboard>”. That’s intrusive and uncalled for. Will you update with a patch that avoids that behavior? While you’re at when will you fix the other complaints I’m reading about the versions starting with 3.4.0? I won’t Update until you do..Version: 3.4.3
✓ Ad free return please!I paid for the Ad free version many years ago only to have the paid version not upgraded to iOS11 and therefore useless. Contacted support on several occasions and fibbed off with vague statements as to “being developed”. Months later and still waiting. Ads are excruciating! To add to above: latest version is appalling. I will be deleting this game as I no longer enjoy it. Constant ads and the operating system now changed for the worse..Version: 3.4.1
✓ I wish they'd make a button for word suggestionsUpdate: still no ad-free version available and I would gladly pay for it if there were. Frustrating. As so many have said, this app is addictive, but I am continually frustrated by the fact that weird words are accepted while perfectly ordinary words are rejected. I wish they'd allow us to suggest words that they would review and then add to the dictionary. That would be a good feature. Update: I paid for this app so I could avoid the ads, but when I updated my phone’s software, the Word Warp app wouldn’t work. I went to update it, and had to download a duplicate instead, so now I can’t run the ad-free version that I paid for, and that is still sitting on my home screen, but I can play the non-ad-free version which works perfectly on the more recent software, but is full of ads. This is bogus. I paid good money for this app, and expected it to be updated accordingly. There isn’t even an option to pay for it again. Only the free version is available now, which means tons of ads..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Word warpThe game was great until “mobility ware” took it over. Now the letters are hard to press and it’s harder to play. Never fix what isn’t broken!.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Wow. Just wow.Do you like apps crashing? How about non-stop ads, that will freeze the app? Would you like some horrible and non-responsive support thrown in the mix? You can have all this and many more problems if you download this now miserable game. It’s almost like someone’s kid thought of a great update to a once great app, told their parents and they said, “why not?” Hey, shouldn't we test this app out first, you know, see if everything works? NAH! Why would we? We don’t like our customers anyway. Sort these reviews by Most Recent, and take a peek at the latest and greatest from mobilityware. Obviously, the company isn’t. It’s a shame to delete a game that has been my go to for YEARS. Oh well, nothing lasts forever. Sad that it was intentional this time....Version: 3.4.1
✓ What happened!?I too used to love this game...could swear I had bought an no/little ad version, but that appears to be gone. Once I updated to a new phone, the old version wouldn’t work for months...then I discovered an updated version which...works, but, as others have said, there are WAY TOO MANY tedious, annoying, hard to get past ADS!!! Makes it a 50/50 on the enjoyment level. 😪 Update: was hoping something would change, but the incessant ads have taken 90% of the enjoyment out of this game. Now, if I play, I don’t play many rounds since it’s VERY tedious to have to close the app between almost every game/round. Not enough years of life to sit around waiting for ads...if I wanted another game by same developer, I’d look for it; but as things stand, that’s the LAST thing I’d do!.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Hate the new formatI hate the new look & format. It is no where as good or user friendly as the original. I have played this game for many years, at least 9 and I am now thinking of deleting it. A shame as it used to be good.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Why all the changes?I agree with 5brick8 review. Have played this game for years. Why change it so much? I agree that I hate the change that the letters stay the same after each attempt. It is much more stimulating when the letters changed order each time. Isn’t that the point of these types of games? That change makes it more boring to me. I don’t care for the huge letters - it’s like when all caps scream at you. Please at least return to the letter list changing each attempt. I do not get the same enjoyment from this game as I have for years and find myself playing it less & less often..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Go back to old versionThe old version was faster and easier to read. This new one is awful.Version: 3.4.3
✓ RuinedIn the last little while you updated this app, and totally ruined it! It no longer keeps my scores, it no longer lets me do the words other than the six letter word and it has to be silenced between each game! Right now I rate it zero for no fun at all!.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Touch sensitivity of the letter tray is badTouch sensitivity of letter tray used to be good. Now it is bad. Can’t play as fast as I used to. Also, would gladly purchase an ad free version of the game if it was available..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Too Many AdsWhy don’t you listen to the users!!! I would be happy to pay for an ad free version. Used to love this game and now because of the overload of ads will most likely delete…frustrating!!.Version: 3.5.1
✓ Good Game Too Many Game ADVERTS!!!Why can't we have a version without other game adverts interrupting all the time. Ugh.Version: 3.3.2
✓ Intrusive ads make a once-favorite game unplayableI used to play this game for long stretches of time. It’s one of my favorite word games. I ended up deleting it when it went a couple years without an update. I recently discovered it had been updated more recently and was thrilled. My disappointment when I realized I would have to endure several seconds of loud ads (that pause my music!) between every. single. puzzle is hard to overstate. I suffered through maybe a half dozen puzzles before I got fed up and deleted the app again. I would be willing to pay a reasonable price for an ad-free version of this game. I am not willing to waste my time on what amounts to an intensive ad delivery service with puzzles in between..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Word warpThe latest upgrades suck. Hope they fix it soon.Version: 3.4.1
✓ It used to be a good appOriginally, I purchased the ad free version of this app only to later get an email saying the developer no longer supported an ad free version on iOS. Of course, no refund was offered and customers, who previously paid, were not grandfathered in. Ok, so you took my money and turned the ads back on. Now I get an update (version 3.4) that changes the format and playability of the game. I guess if I had never experienced the original version, I might be okay with the new version. However, it seems that the app developer keeps changing the game, at the user’s expense, to collect more ad revenues. I’ve been a big fan of Word Warp for years but will now be searching for something new that is not owned/developed by this app developer - Mobilityware. NOT RECOMMENDED!.Version: 3.4.0
✓ Lost my score with updateI’ve been playing this game over the years and had a score of over 7 million. With the update, it’s completely wiped it - now it’s on zero. I tried to contact the developer but have had no response..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Hate the new updateI have played and enjoyed this game for many years but as a result of the most recent changes and updated “privacy” terms I have now deleted it.Version: 3.4.1
✓ The Upgrade that wasn’tThis upgrade is awful—it’s more of a regression into ancient graphics and a game that didn’t need fixing with than an “upgrade” !!!!! This used to be my “go to” game but with loud ads, other ads with somewhat indiscreet graphics, and gambling ads targeting the elderly, I now seldom play. Also...”payd” as a legitimate word whose definition says it’s the past tense of “pay” ....!!!! Seriously!! (Should be “paid”.)Also other legitimate words are not accepted......what dictionary are you using or aren’t you using one and just “winging it”?????!! I thought I would give it another try and in the span of less than an hour I got the same game again. This so called upgrade has completely cheapened and ruined this game. Seems like someone else bought it and took it over and made it into something less than usable. Very sad and such a shame..Version: 3.4.3
✓ Worst update EVERWhat happened??!! No game update for a year or more. Finally an update and it just completely ruined the game. You have to tap a letter several times to get it to work. The letters don’t arrange properly after playing a word. I just don’t get it..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Word WarpDislike the new formate, the way the letters are presented. And the way the letters go back to their original spots ie not dropping into where the word would be on the grid like the old formate..Version: 3.4.1
✓ It’s become unplayableI used to really enjoy this game. But ever since they changed it with the loud irritating ads playing after every single round I’ve been playing less and less to the point where it’s not even worth the aggravation anymore, and after years and years of having this game I am about ready to just delete it. If there was an option for a paid version without millions of ads I’d gladly buy it, but they don’t even give the option to pay to remove ads. Yeah, I’m done. Update: I’ve found two better replacements, Wordstock and Jumbline, both you pay a small price for, $1.99, but it’s the same type of game but with no ads. My response to your response: You’re not getting it; it doesn’t matter if we can dismiss the loud irritating ads after 5 or 10 seconds, it’s the fact that we have to deal with this after EVERY. SINGLE. ROUND. It’s not worth it. There’s other games out there. I’ve already downloaded two other games identical to yours that I paid a small fee for with no ads. If you add an option to pay to remove ads completely I may reinstall, but until then you will remain deleted..Version: 3.3.4
✓ Changes to App DO NOT WORKI have played Word Warp for years. It is highly addictive. However, the recent changes made to the App have made it glitchy and almost unusable. At times, the letters will not appear even though you select them. If you are moving quickly, this will trip you up and the word that you are attempting to play will not be complete causing you to start over forming the word. In addition, the order of the letters no longer tracks the most recent word. Instead, the letter sort remains the same throughout the game. Anyone who has played this game for a while will be thrown off by this. These two problems combined make for a frustrating experience. Please fix this App!.Version: 3.4.0
✓ Go backThis used to be a very good game but since the update it's not nearly as good as before. Please go back to the previous version.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Nuisance adsThe nuisance pop up ads after every game are annoying, especially the ones with sound.Version: 3.3.3
✓ Go back to old playformThe new platform freezes constantly. The older version worked perfectly..Version: 3.4.3
✓ Too many changes make for lowered qualityThis app was my time filler, playing 5 minutes here or there. I am now considering removing it after playing 5 or so years. Right now, I only have one 6 letter word to fill. Sometimes my finger taps are unresponsive. It’s a mess. And it’s taking too long for fixes..Version: 3.4.1
✓ What happened?This was my favourite game. I whiled away hours playing it, but since the new update it is almost impossible to enjoy anymore. The letters are so hard to push making it impossible to complete a game in the set time. Please address this problem so I can once again enjoy it..Version: 3.4.2
✓ Game now sucksYou ruined this game with your last update.Version: 3.4.1
✓ Latest update screwed things up, will be deleting it now.The new update changes the behavior of the letters. Before, after entering a choice, the letters would stay in the same order for the next one, making it easy to rattle off similar combinations. Now it resets and it’s necessary to rearrange the letters over and over slowing things down considerably. Also, it appears the the recognition of a tap isn’t as sensitive. The letter will change (color/intensity) as if it was tapped, but it doesn’t get selected requiring repeated taps to actually choose it. During fast play, this causes numerous false combinations. All in all, this game is no longer worth the effort. There are other options that used to be not as good but now are the preferred choice..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Loud Ads When Playing On MuteReally irritating to hear loud volume ads when playing on mute. Hey developers, there is a reason that some of your players choose “no sound” in settings. It is not good at all that when I finish a game I silence — and after EVERY game— a high volume ad jarring ad pops up. What’s worse is that I am forced to listen to the ad until an “X” pops up so I can choose to close it. What continues to get worse is some of the advertisers are sneaky in that a tiny “x” to close the ad is almost transparent to barely be seen while there is another very visible and large “X” that when you hit that , it takes you to the App Store. I realize you need ad revenue for those of us playing this game for free, but the set up is really disrespectful to your players. Of course, it is obvious that your app isn’t about the game and players, it really is a platform for advertisers. Please fix. Thanks..Version: 3.3.3
✓ Really disappointingDear “Development” Team I’ve been playing this for years. It was bad enough when you introduced the ads but now the game is (by comparison) truly appalling! New font is poor, response time is slow, you can’t short cut to the next word until time limit is reached (if you haven’t got all the words) and the letters go back to original sort order slowing game even further. Will you address any of these or should I just delete game now? This is not an upgrade!.Version: 3.4.1
✓ The new version is terrible.Many bugs incl only offering one 6 letter word solution..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Ads EVERY SINGLE GAME!!!This would get a good rating from me if there wasn’t a loud ad every single game. Would have purchased, but there’s no ad-free paid version. Deleting this annoying crappy app now..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Great game terrible adsI understand the need for banner ads and such so the author can get rewarded for his hard work. I occasionally click on them to support, but this particular implementation ruins the game for me. I can't play this game because on the train I have no wifi and it complains it can't connect to the server and exits. It's a shame, when I have played this game it's been really entertaining....Version: 0
✓ 2 stars because it used to be greatI wouldn’t review it or even keep it if I’d only used the latest version. This has been an app I’ve used daily for years but the latest version has me ready to delete it. I’ve really enjoyed it. I’ve put up with the endless ads with the recent versions, but now they’re longer and more insistent in their presentation. Added to that, it’s buggier than heck (never used to be) and slower to load. I’ve quit the app multiple times because I think it’s frozen, only to find out I just have to wait. I’ve been presented with screens where it says my score is zero and it only displays one word (the six letter word) to fill in. The pause function only works sometimes. I’ve gotten out of the app during play and gone back in only to find my score has been reset to zero. It has been turned into a piece of junk. Probably tracking me too. I can’t recommend it. If you’re an advertiser within this app, I would spend my money elsewhere..Version: 3.4.1
✓ Great game. Tired of Ads.I have loved this game for years. I bought the paid version to get rid of ads but that is a completely different game. Wish I could get an ad-free version of this app. The game is intuitive; updates have improved the app. Highly recommended. Update: they’ve just updated the game after not changing anything about the game in over 10 years!!! So now after typing a word, the letters go back to their original position instead of plugging back into the grid in the order you used them. So I’m constantly typing the wrong letters. They enlarged the letters and changed the font. There is NO WAY to change any of the new settings off. I’ve played this game for over 10 years. I want it to be the same. Very disappointing update..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Ads upon ads upon adsThis is one of my favorite games to play. I’m sorry, if I wanted commercials I would watch tv. I turn my ringer down to avoid that loud music that seems to be attached to every ad. Now the ads are getting longer. You would think they would want to make money from players who actually like playing this game and who are will to pay for no ads instead of getting paid by advertisers. All those stupid ads will not be seen if everyone stops playing! Go back to offering a paid version with no ads, but this time don’t mess it up when it updates. Or here’s a crazy thought... better yet, start limiting those ads. I swear I can go bake a cake and come back and one of those stupid ads will still be playing. The struggle is real I tell ya... the struggle is real!!.Version: 3.3.4
✓ The ads have killed itI used to play this 30 mins every day and would have given it 5 stars. The ads are now to frequent and irritating. I no longer play it..Version: 3.3.4
✓ The score is not changingThank you for your attention to the glitches. Now the score is not changing at all. Seems to be stuck. And I find the new font and size of the letters very difficult to work with. I appreciate that you are trying to improve the game..Version: 3.4.1
✓ So sick of ads after each game session!I couldn’t agree more with the reviewer who stated they are sick and tired of all the advertisements after 99.9% of each game. That said, I have enjoyed Word Warp for years....I am actually up to 48,000,000. However, again, there are times I am ready to quit playing because of all the ads. Even though, sometimes, you are offered the opportunity to “skip the ad”, it still takes 5 seconds of waiting to do so. I would recommend to Word Warp management, if you don’t want to discourage new (and less patient) players from remaining on this app, REMOVE THE ADS!!! Or at least consider only showing them every 10th game?!!! I have talked to several of my friends and family whom I recommended Word Warp.....and they have quit Word Warp simply due to all the advertising....and moved on to other games. I have to admit I have grown weary of the underwear ads that “enhance the male package!”.Version: 3.3.4
✓ Too many adsI have been playing this game since it came out and have always loved it. However there are so many ads at this point that it has ruined the game. I really like the interface and the variety of words but it’s become so unpleasant (not to mention that the ads have audio that you can’t turn off. So that even if you are willing to put up wi to the ads - you can’t play in any setting where there are other people). I would gladly pay for an ad free version but there isn’t one. I will very sadly look for a different app that has that option.Version: 3.6.0
✓ Game was good before updatesQuite a few glitches in scoring and in the continue button..Version: 3.4.1
✓ It Just Keeps Getting WorseI’ve had this app for years, and the game itself is pretty engaging and a good time waster, but it just keeps getting worse with every update. First there was the adding of more and longer ads over time, followed by ads that take you out of the app to automatically redirect to a browser or the App Store without permission. Then, within the last year, I started noticing that the app messes with the volume settings, often muting my phone volume and ringer/alerts without me knowing or allowing that kind of access. Today’s update added a bunch of themes that no one really needed while completely ruining the app itself. Now all it will do is show the game screen, but I can’t actually play anymore. I tried the typical troubleshooting- closing the app, deleting the app and reinstalling it, etc.- and nothing worked, so I’m leaving this review and deleting the app for good..Version: 3.4.0
✓ Latest Update Broke It!I really enjoy this game and play it daily. Well, I did. Until the latest update broke it. Now it only crashes. Boo!! Review Update: Okay, so the latest update fixed the crashing, but can you get the sound setting to stay fixed? I have to mute the sound every time I open the app. In fact, can you just go back a few builds and then leave the app the heck alone? It was working fine until you decided to “improve” it. And I second what another person said about the letters reordering after a word is entered. The old way was fine; why was there a need to change that? Honestly, you know how everyone laughed when back in the late 70s the Coca-Cola company came out with New Coke and it was a disaster because no one was looking for New Coke? No one was looking for updates to this app either. Review Update Redux: Honestly, you guys should fire your app developer. Now, even though you fixed the earlier mistakes, you guys broke the round counter. I’ve been on round two for I don’t know how many games now. Seriously..Version: 3.4.3
✓ Too many adsI used to play this all the time and purchased an ad free version - now it doesn’t play ads in the middle of a game but it takes forever to go to the next round because the ads play between rounds. I don’t recommend it anymore to friends who love word games, in fact I tell them to stay away from it..Version: 3.7
✓ What out for the con !Watch out for the small print in the IQ challenge which signs you up for an expensive text service..Version: 0
