Crossword Solver v5.4.4
Havos Word GamesAbout this app
Developer Description
Most feature rich Crossword Solver available, with synonyms, cryptic and more
It has many advantages compared to similar applications:
1) Contains many thousands of Proper Nouns, including full names, professions, nationality, date of birth and death for about 60,000 famous people, plus around 26,000 places, i.e. countries, cities, rivers, mountains etc. It also knows the names and other data of 90,000 popular movies, books, comics, bands, songs, albums, works of art, deities and fictional characters. These proper nouns are essential for solving general knowledge clues, which can make up to 20-25% of crossword clues. These clues are the type that you either know them or you don't, i.e. difficult to just guess, so if you do not know a particular person you are usually stuck
2) Provides filters to reduce the list of possible answers. This is essential when only a few letters are known. For example, you can filter out rarely used words.
3) Choose the language of the word list, from a large range of downloadable dictionaries. 36 languages are currently available (see below)
4) Contains 5 different modes for help solving Crosswords, Anagrams, Synonyms, Codewords and Cryptic Crosswords. Codeword mode allows the user to specify which letters are already known (and hence not considered for the unknown letters), and which unknown letters are the same (i.e have the same Codeword number). Cryptic mode contains extra help with many examples
5) Solves "two word" answers. This is very useful in combination with first and last names of famous people. It also finds "two word" anagrams
6) View answers in multiple columns. Optimized use of screen space. Takes full advantage of size of tablet
7) Can be played in portrait or landscape mode. Just rotate your device and the display adjusts automatically
8) The dictionary also contains some foreign language words. These are often found in some crosswords. Foreign words are English, French, German, Spanish, Italian and Latin
9) Contains about 150,000 synonyms, using the built-in thesaurus, to help find the solution from the clue.
All of these features are available without an internet connection, and are rarely found in similar applications.

Excellent app for finishing crosswords, codewords and puzzles involving anagrams. Highly recommended.
Works well. Good word lists. Reasonably intuitive. I use it a lot
Used to like this. It didn't always give me an answer but usually did. As a freebie, I accept the need for ads, but recently, every time I use it, I get prompted for cookie permissions. I value my privacy and don't want targeting cookies, but there's no reject all option, so you have to go through hundreds of options to protect your privacy. And it's repeated every time I use the app. Given up on it, sadly.
This app used to be 5 star, but now if you don't consent to all personal advert information and select options it just keeps popping up every time you go into the app and every word you select
Frustrating Drains battery/buggy. Went to number keyboard using 123 to do f1???221 and could not get back to the letters keyboard..there is NO abc button, tried...i exited the ap and restarted. but still only number/symbols =unusable! (! it didnt have 'fronteer'! It had 'flywheel' so understood letters/numbers) Why WHY is there no way to get back to LETTERS? Its basic! App101 I went into 'help' there was no way to ask the question i needed. So here i am Lets see if you look at your app reviews
