✓ Good luck trying to open it!All there is is a “buttocks” ad.Version: 2.3.6

✓ Baygal68Buttons wont always lock words in but other wise quite good.Version: 1.1.4
✓ Too many AddsFun, but not challenging enough. Probably a kids app and toooooo many adds..Version: 2.2.0
✓ Too many adsUsed to love this app, then the ads after every puzzle ruined it for me. Don’t waste your time..Version: 2.2.0
✓ Annoying NotificationsWhat's with the stupid notifications every hour? I'm deleting it because it's soooo annoying with the notification message popup every hour. I tried everything to disable the notification but with no success. Also this app it doesn't have a setting where you can disable its stupid and annoying notification. So not worth to install a app which is a pain in the neck..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Too many long 30 second adsThe game itself is very good, but after every puzzle you get another 30second ads, which might not be as annoying if you take a long time to do a puzzle, but I don’t!.Version: 2.3.4
✓ Fun puzzles but stupid ads/scamsI finished playing a game and a screen popped up saying my "phone had a virus" and wanted me to follow their instructions to get rid of it. What a scam. Then there was no way to exit that screen unless you closed the app completely. It's an obvious scam and easy to avoid, but it's annoying that a simple word search game would allow this crap..Version: 2.0.8
✓ Too many adsWay too many ads. locked me into an ad for about 30 seconds with no option to close off. I’m spending just as much time watching ads as playing the game. Therefore I’ve lost interest in it..Version: 2.2.2
✓ Freezing way too muchSo sad! I was actually enjoying the game but after i reached a certain level it started to freeze. I only played about three times before this started to happen. I would close and reopen the app but even that wouldn’t work. I would have to go to the settings and disconnect the app from internet connection then back. That solved the problem once but then it started to happen again. I ended up deleting the app. It doesn’t work properly. Plus too many ads..Version: 2.2.1
✓ Font Size Update Too SmallThe recent update to the font size makes it too difficult to read and user is unable to adjust it. Disappointed since I’ve used this app for years..Version: 2.3.5
✓ SadWords are repeated far too often. This has put me off, i don’t want to search for same words over and over again!.Version: 2.2.3
✓ MehPop up adds are annoying, and this is boringly simple. Maybe it gets harder later, but starting off it is a waste of time if you are looking for something challenging. But, at least it doesn’t have in-app purchases. So, that’s a plus..Version: 2.1.0
✓ Ad Pop-Ups make this app uselessAds about 1 min long make the game useless. It didn’t use to be this way but it changes. Avoid this app and select another word search app. Especially since there is no in app purchase to remove ads..Version: 2.2.1
✓ Phishing adsPhishing ads about fake viruses claiming to be Apple. Please remove this scam ware from the AppStore..Version: 2.0.8
✓ AnnoyedGood but too many annoying adds for other apps!.Version: 2.0.7
✓ Ads Sometimes Lockup.The game is great, however the ads sometimes lockup preventing me from playing the game. I have to reboot my iPad to correct the problem. Now that is annoying..Version: 2.3.6
✓ Words not staying highlightedNot sure what’s happening with this app now. Never had a problem before and always enjoyed playing it. However, now after finding a word and highlighting it, it does not stay marked as having found it. This is happening so much that I rarely open the app anymore. It’s very annoying! Plus the way it jumps from the game to the screen with ads. Hopefully it will get fixed..Version: 2.3.6
✓ Ads!!Love this word search app, but in the last few days the Ads have been too much! It’s ok to have an Ad at the bottom of the screen, but now after every puzzle is a full page, animated and noisy game Ad that lasts for 30 seconds - that’s too much!.Version: 2.3.4
✓ Ads too longIf I could pay (a fair amount) to ditch the ads I would. Can’t even do that though. Removing and looking for a different app that I can remove the ads.Version: 2.2.3
✓ Dull gameBadly design user interface, too many ads. Game is boring..Version: 2.0.8
✓ Use cautionThere is a phishing file attached to this game. A misspelled "virus warning" message appears when playing a couple of levels. It told me my iPhone had been infected by a virus. I just deleted the game..Version: 2.0.8
✓ Cannot pay to remove ads?I like this game a lot, and have completed all the puzzles. However the ads are very annoying. I would love to pay for an ad free version, but apparently that is not an option. Too bad they do not want my money.... :).Version: 2.1.0
✓ Fun but issuesThis game is really fun but a few games I’ve played haven’t been very fun. A few times it glitched and went back to my home screen when I had one word to go. This is a really fun game but be warned it glitches lots.Version: 2.2.1
✓ Word searchGood for the memory as well as rapid eye movement!.Version: 1.1.4
✓ Spam pop up on gameThere is a pop up that comes up in the middle of a game and claims your device has a virus..Version: 2.0.8
✓ Too Many AdsEven with receptiveness of words in the categories, I still enjoyed playing. I use this game to tire my mind. Recently though I noticed the explosion of ads. I get its a free app so there will be ads, after every time I finish a puzzle is excessive. The puzzles are to short and quick, the ratio of ads is annoying. Looking for a different app..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Terrible.I can't believe theyre actually putting a word search game on the appstore that doesnt even let you see the whole grid. how am i supposed to find the words when there are missing letters ? this game is literally unplayable..Version: 2.3.6
✓ Great gameIt is very fast paced racing against the clock. The only thing is that u have to play the same game too many times to get 5 stars..Version: 2.0.2
✓ Stupid "you've won a prize" popupsEvery time I try to play, I get a pop up telling me all about the "new iPhone 6" I've apparently won. And there's no way to close the notification except to restart the game. But halfway through the next game, it happens again. I can't even complete a wordsearch on your app anymore so I don't really see the point..Version: 2.0.6
✓ ADDSLOVE THE GAME BUT THE ADDS ARE CRAZY VERY VERY DISTRACTING HOPE YOU WILL DO BETTER WITH REMOVING THE ADDS. OTHERWISE I HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO DELETE IT. LOOKING FOR ANOTHER ONE BECAUSE I DO ENJOY DOING THEM . FROM ANNOYED.Version: 2.2.2
✓ Too Limited On Its Word ChoicesThis would be a great little word search app - if it weren't for the fact that the program they're using to randomly generate the words has such limited imagination! I rapidly got tired of each new grid having the same words over and over and why they have subjects is mystifying as none of the words relate to the categories. You choose Zombie Apocalypse and you get a first grid with relevant words and then every grid after it has names of herbs or an entirely random collection of words. It's a shame because if it had a decent word generator it would be an entertaining little app..Version: 2.0.3
✓ OkFun but too easy.Version: 1.1.5
✓ Word searchInteresting,enabling,cool and with time to spare as to find.Version: 1.1.5
✓ Fun but repetitiveI like the style and layout of the game, but there's no progression. You can just play the same 10 or so puzzles again and again to get more stars or you have to pay for more puzzles. There's no level progression or option to select a harder puzzle..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Tooooooo many ads many of which are wasaaayyyyytoo long!Love the play just not the disruptions.Version: 2.3.6
✓ Get rid of the ads!I’ve had this game for years and loved it! But now, every time I finish one screen, I get one or two ads and it is very annoying!!! Is there and ad free version I can purchase? Never before did I have ads! Will have to delete if can’t get ad free version! Also, can’t find a way to quit a screen if I get stuck!.Version: 2.1.0
✓ No longer worth the effortIt now has too many pop up ads that have to be closed - it used to be enjoyable- use to banner ads and limit them. Advice - if you see Ad Choice ads pop up delete the app. Why can’t they run an ad and shut it down - 10 seconds is enough time. This is the third time I’ve tried and found way too many ads - no longer a smooth running app 🤬.Version: 2.2.0
✓ Contains frequent crappy virus scare adsDownloaded the app along time ago and it was a lot of fun. Started playing it again and it has these crappy frequent virus scare ads. Never seen anything like this before. Immediately uninstalled the app. Highly don't recommend this app and I would give it a A negative Starr if I could. Obviously no fun anymore, too bad it used to be a nice app..Version: 2.0.8
✓ Scam and Phishing Pop Ups, beware!!Some of the pop ups are disguised to look like your phone has a virus and there is no way to close it without force quitting the app. These pop ups are scams and are phishing for money and your info! Some possibly installing malicious apps and software to your phone. Uninstalled the app as soon as I saw they support this kind of predatory behavior within their app..Version: 2.0.8
✓ QuestsI finished 2 quests and it says I am 3 points short in each quest. How come? Why is this game not linked to my iPad? All other games are. 😡😡.Version: 2.2.1
✓ DISCLAIMER: this app has a lot of ads and use the same words over and overI LOVED this game... at first though a couple moths later they take away your time and give you MORE AND MORE AND MORE AND MORE adds AND they are using the same words over and over and over and over again it’s JUST SOOOOOOOO ANNOYING I hate this app at this point I give one star you should be warned this game is horrible.Version: 2.3.4
✓ Scammy adsScammy ads!.Version: 2.0.8
✓ DisappointedIt’s a shame you can’t tap the letters to highlight the words. Scroll my finger along a word 9 times out of 10 does not work! Forcing me to highlight it over and over and over and still only being able to highlight maybe 4 letters in a row especially when the word is diagonal. Should have an option to highlight the words another way coz your scroll over feature is absolutely shocking making the game completely frustrating and unplayable. Uninstalling immediately after review to find a word search game that actually works..Version: 2.2.0
✓ New searches??????When are new searches going to be available? ... I've been waiting more than three months … ALSO Why did you decrease the font size?.Version: 2.3.5
✓ Hey where’s the mystery word search?This game is a scam!.Version: 2.3.4
✓ Game is not accurately maintaining scoresSometimes I'm getting stuck on the second star. Other categories start losing stars I've already gained. Like when I'm finished playing tonight and come back tomorrow, I'll have one or more stars that have disappeared. Tried to contact support from App Store, but it brought up a different game! I'm about ready to delete, as I'm not getting anywhere. It's like sitting in a ditch with one wheel off the ground, yet continuing to give it gas! It's just stupid!.Version: 2.0.8
✓ ExcellentGood variety to choose from.Version: 1.1.4
✓ Unable to finishI downloaded this game and then deleted it because it would nt complete some words that had to cross over another.. No fun to play if you cannot finish!.Version: 2.3.4
✓ Word searchThis was a good puzzle until today, when an advisement started, the page went black and is still black!!! I can not play the game. Can you fix this please?.Version: 2.3.4
✓ Greek Gods PuzzleGood word search, but Uranus, Neptune, Jupiter, Mars, Venus, Mercury or Pluto aren’t from Greek Mythology. They are from Roman mythology..Version: 2.2.0
✓ Fun game howeverI keep coming across puzzles with blank spaces and search can’t be completed although the full word is there. Fix it.Version: 2.3.4
✓ Too many ads. Is there an ad free version?I like this game but there are way too many ads for other games. At times it’s hard to determine how to get out of the Ad and return to word search. Frustrated by the annoying and numerous ads when I would just like to play the game.Version: 2.2.3
✓ AdvertsAge for this game shows as 4+ however shows adverts for casino games. Not appropriate in a game most suited to kids..Version: 2.3.4
✓ Annoying with Ads, especially scam onesThe phone has a virus ad is really misleading and annoying - especially since it would pop up randomly mid-game (twice in one game?!). The searches themselves were ok..Version: 2.0.8
✓ Too many adsGood word search but long ads after every puzzle. I played 5 games and I’ve had enough..Version: 2.2.2
✓ Too many Ads!Too many ads!.Version: 2.1.0
✓ Game itself is greatGame itself is really great but way way way toooo many adverts. Every game ends and an adverts and they get longer. The last ad was 30 seconds of plonk plonks music. It done my head in. Delete app !! Sorry guys but you over done it..Version: 2.2.2
✓ Poor feedback interfaceStars indicate I’ve finished a pack of games but the displayed numbers show a couple of games not completed. Frustrating that I can’t find those games to complete the game pack!.Version: 2.2.1
✓ Interesting mindless puzzleGet lost in the puzzles betting own time.Version: 1.1.4
✓ WAY TO MANY ADVERTISEMENTSHi developers! This game is awesome for what it is intended to do. But the advertisements is OUT OF CONTROL. Please cut it down just a little bit. PLEASE! Having to watch an advertisement after every completed search. ANNOYING! Please Stop taking the fun from the game just for a little bit extra advertisement dollars. Thanks for hearing my rant!.Version: 2.2.2
✓ Frequent crashesFun game but it would be nice to play it longer than two minutes without it crashing.Version: 2.2.2
✓ AlrightIt's clean crisp simple.Version: 1.1.5
✓ Word search “porn”I’ve played this game quite a few times and this morning’s game came as quite a shock. Two times during one of the Word Search games I was interrupted with a five second or so clip of pornography. Real live porn. Took me by surprise. It happened twice in the middle of the same game. I haven’t had this happen before, and hopefully it won’t happen again. It would’ve been terrible if a small child was playing the game..Version: 2.2.1
✓ BoringHas to be one of the most boring games ever. Only 8 words to find on each game, no idea of what the relevance of the score might be as there's no progression through difficulty. If you want to try to get a high score on one theme (I was trying to get all three stars to see if anything exciting happened then), you have to tell it which one you want every time, and the same words come up over and over. Very US type words (apart from European countries) and they can't spell properly - donut for doughnut. Can't even see how some of the words fit the themes; is Vandamme a popular dog's name in America? It was in nearly every game. Never heard of it myself..Version: 1.1.4
✓ Annoyed😡I love this game and play daily with several friends but today I am really annoyed because my word on one game is acceptable and allows me to play, gives new tiles and when I next see this game it is back where I started. I have tried playing different acceptable but this one game keeps returning with the same tiles and the same last word played by my friend!!!.Version: 2.2.0
✓ Zero StarsSo many ads pop up that it's impossible to go through one game without worrying. And it isn't just after you finish a puzzle- they pop up while you're DOING the puzzle and ruin your experience. This is one of the crappiest excuses of an app I have ever downloaded..Version: 2.0.8
✓ ProblemGreat game, however after the last update can be very hard to see search words.Version: 2.0.4
✓ Would have been a 4* or even 5*Should have an option to switch off the numerous annoying ads, which make the game only a 2* instead of a higher rating. What a shame..Version: 2.0.8
✓ Annoying ads make it hard to use the appAfter every game an ad pops up, and you can’t X it until it shows you the whole thing. Very annoying, especially for a kid..Version: 2.3.4
✓ OkNot many words per game and has silly timing based star points thing, I think the idea is you do the same game but try to do it faster....... But who would want to do that??.Version: 1.1.5
✓ Auto music playing adsNot cool. Firstly I was going to ignore most of the ads because you don't have to wait long to skip them. Then I noticed that it makes you replay levels over and over to get all the stars while claiming it will be different every time but I looked for the same ten words across six games. Then the ads started auto playing music. I have my phone volume off to not disturb my significant other while they are sleeping. This is unacceptable. Sorry but artificial difficulty, a lack of follow through on puzzles being different and allowing ads that auto play music force me to give this a 1 star..Version: 2.2.0
✓ Too many adsGood app but should be a paid version with no ads..Version: 2.2.2
✓ Search for words, I would, if I couldWord Search, have played this game for years. And loved it. Great way to fill in a few mins here and there. However since updating my mini 4 to ios 12.1.4, the app no longer opens. Have deleted and re-installed, same result. I don’t think the app is happy with ios 12.1.4, I know I’m not. Hope to be playing again soon..Version: 2.2.1
✓ Waste of TimeAt first, the game was great. There was barely any words and it was fun. After you get to a certain level in each category though, it gets very repetitive and annoying. It sneakily takes away some of your time without telling you and you have to watch ads to get it back, each time you start a new game. The words sometimes don’t fit the category and get repetitive. The game just gives you the same words, less time, and a random, more difficult crossword time. It’s clear that this game was made just to make money, you can do the same level over and over again and not get anywhere. I’m just over all upset with it..Version: 2.2.0
✓ Annoying AdsLove to play the quick search while waiting for an appointment. I have the typical sounds shut off so as not to disturb others nearby. Recent ads have loud annoying sounds that can’t be shut off & lock up my screen so I can’t play. I hate this change!!! Had to shut off my phone to get it to stop..Version: 2.2.3
✓ Top row of letters missing half the timeUsed to ok as a mindless time waster. Now with the top row of letters being hidden half the time it’s now garbage.Version: 2.3.5
✓ I love itIt’s so much fun and.Version: 2.3.4
✓ NopeUsed to play all the time. Too many adds now (Sept 2020). Deleted.Version: 2.3.4
