Daily POP Crossword Puzzles Wiki

I would rate this app 5 stars, I do multiple crosswords a day on it, they all have more relevant and modern hints than other apps, which is wonderful. I never take the time to write reviews but hopefully the devs see this and consider fixing an issue I have and that is this: Hitting the arrow to go to the next clue will run you in a loop of the same few clues over and over before moving down the list. It seems trivial but it’s extremely annoying to have to go through 10 clues you just read to move on to the next clue. It will also skip entire sections of the puzzle. I know i could just tap the ones I want, but having used other crossword apps and being familiar with the controls a certain way made me realize how much better it could be just by making what seems to be a simple change.

This would have five stars, but when you put in the 20 coins to reveal the errors and you leave the puzzle for whatever reason and come back, you have to put 20 more coins to see the errors. Not sure if there’s a problem there but you certainly need to look into it. Other than that, the puzzles are just tough enough to keep you coming back for more. Although not tough enough to make you want to give up. Most can be solved without having to pay for the errors.

I don't like how you can only solve one puzzle per day without having to pay, and if you miss a day you have to pay to go back to that day!That's kinda BS!! It kinda makes me forget about the game and get hooked on other ones that I CAN continue playing. Jeopardy is the same way! I haven't played it for almost a month cuz it would make me wait til the next day. Plus in the introduction it said you could see errors and reveal words and hints for free, but they aren't free. They're 10-20 points per game! Very misleading

other reviewers have stated all that i would say so i’ll just keep it simple- it’s fantastic. the hints are relevant+current, the puzzles are challenging but not too challenging (this is a pop culture game after all haha), and really in general it’s got great content, great variety, and u can take your pick from any of the crosswords from the whole year! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND! BUT! is there an ad-free version available for purchase?? (this is the only reason i gave it 4 stars instead of 5)

This is fun as far as crossword puzzles go. Even with the random abbreviated word thrown in every puzzle because the makers couldn’t figure out another 3 letter word that might fit. I overlooked that! With the recent Ad integration - I’m forced to watch 30 second Ads ( which is fine!) I used to watch them to earn coins. However, the new Ads (even after waiting for the Ad to end) does not allow to click out of the window. The x on the top right is misplaced so that the only option it allows is to scroll my iPhone menu down. I have to force close the App in order to generate a new Ad and so far I’ve gotten the same Ad that does not allow to click out of. I love crossword puzzles - and POP culture. So, this was a great combination of the two! Too bad I can’t play 😡

I have to start by saying I really do love this game... when it works. It’s so much fun and the crossword puzzles are just the right level of challenging. I love the pop culture aspect of it. However, there are so many glitches that it rarely works. When I click on the app it opens up just fine. But then I try to click on the daily puzzle and the app closes. It takes about 5 or 6 tries before it finally works. The app also closes every time I click to try and watch a video advertisement to earn coins so I can buy more puzzles. So I never get to earn coins to buy more puzzles because that feature never ever works. It’s very frustrating because the app would be great if it just worked.

I started playing at the beginning of October and played daily until the November update. Once I updated I would continually get booted out. After several days I decided to just delete and download again (losing everything). I’m now about 2 weeks into it again and am being booted out. I already lost all my coins and badges accrued the 1st time I erased and redownloaded. I sure am even more frustrated that this is happening all over again. I will wait a couple days and ruin my streak with hopes of it being fixed. However if it isn’t I will erase the game for good.

I really enjoy the puzzles, challenging & fun but recently the ads pop up in the middle of doing the puzzle. Until this week the ads wouldn’t show up til you finished the puzzle. The second thing that irritates me is that if you want to do an older puzzle you have to use the back arrow to go through every single month. Why not just have a drop down box? The last thing is that to get free coins you need to watch an ad, ok, no big deal but recently after I watch the ad there’s no payout. I have to watch 3 or 4 ads before it gives me 10 coins.

I love the puzzles they are interesting and challenging but I am not happy with all the ads and how long it takes to get to the puzzles. Several times I just give up and go to a different puzzle app. What gets me the most is you have to go thru these long ads even when you leave the app for a short time to answer a call or text. I would be happy to pay a reasonable fee to remove the ads or subscription to remove ads and have access to puzzles without buying or earning coins. You lost a star with me. Since I wrote original review the ad time has gotten worse. One of the ads has no way of closing so I end up closing your app and try another day to see if it closed on its own. Also I am tired of buying coins to use the “show errors”

It’s been over a week since the last update which causes almost immediate crashing... you ask me to send my OS info to you, and to be patient... I’ve done both. And yet I look through pages of reported crashing with the same BS copy/paste response, and absolutely ZERO resolve. I used to love this game. Completing challenges, earning coins, trying to beat my best times. And you have sucked all that joy right out it because you just don’t care... you couldn’t two flying pieces of horse manure about your users. We aren’t even worthy of receiving progress updates, just more copy/paste drone responses. I’m done, deleting the game. YOU contact ME when you get your crap together and get the game fixed. Then MAYBE I’ll download it again. But what do you care, you’re making money on other games. As long as the $$$ is coming in from somewhere, you’ll copy and paste and ask for patience just to get us to shut up.

I really like daily pop crosswords but am very upset. You used to be able to get 5 coins every time you watched a video. Coins are needed to play more than one crossword or see mistakes or reveal a word. Today I was watching videos to get coins and realized it was only giving me 1 coin per video. This is ridiculous. It is going to take forever to get enough coins to do anything now. The only way to get enough now is to pay money. There are not even enough earn coin things. I am very angry and upset. This is the developers way to get us to pay money and it’s not right. 1 coin per video is absurd. Please fix this immediately and I will change my rating. Otherwise, I may have to find another crossword app.

I’ve done a pop crossword almost every night for past 3 years, it helps me fall asleep. I also liked the calendar with little icons on each day you complete a puzzle. Now it’s a different structure — long ads at very beginning, and now MULTIPLE times during ONE puzzle. I understand they need to make money. I did in-app purchases for coins to help me with puzzle clues. I wouldn’t mind paying a one time fee since I really enjoyed the categories and variety of daily puzzles. But to ask for $4.99/month for ad-free on top of the the purchasing of coins for clue help is just too much in my opinion. Now with the new additional ads throughout it interrupts my method of falling asleep.

Updated today and the game no longer works. I ran the latest update because the app would crash when I tried to open it so I updated thinking that would fix the crash issue. The app opens now but I can’t open any puzzles on the calendar . The calendar shows the number 1 in every square instead of a date and tapping on the calendar does nothing. I have played this game for awhile now and I don’t want to delete and reload as I have almost 8000 coins that I suspect I will lose. The game has been excellent and fun until now. I see there seems to be a issue with the game from other reviewers and I am hoping a new update is in the works to address the problems.

My previous review was 3 stars, prior to the update that created an advertisement channel with an occasional crossword clue. But, let’s get to my original review that was deleted for...not adhering to leftist orthodoxies (what happened to tolerance and free speech?). The crosswords are beholden to modern social justice warrior approved speech dictums. Clues revolve around feminist, BLM, and modern Marxist doctrine. The problem, outside the social ramifications of deleting the worth and history of white males, is that the clues become stale and overused. When the clues primarily consist of female athletes, minority movie stars, leftist politicians, etc., the themes become rote and answers overused. The format of the app is pleasing and there is great potential. The apolitical crosswords are actually a lot of fun. It would be great if the publisher could find the moral fortitude to stay apolitical for all crosswords, because some of us would like an escape from a world where the media feels the need to make everything political. Let’s see how long this post stays up before the those opposing free speech have their way.
