Penny Dell Jumbo Crosswords 2 is a dream for word puzzle enthusiasts. The sheer volume of content is impressive, but it's the 'Alternate Clue' feature that really sets it apart. If you're stuck on a cryptic clue, being able to toggle to a more literal one is a brilliant way to keep the game moving without resorting to spoilers.
The 'Smart Navigation' is another highlight; it intuitively skips filled squares and focuses on the current word, making solving on a small screen feel effortless. It’s a polished, high-quality app that respects the tradition of crosswords while embracing digital conveniences.

Sun Oct 19 2025 specialappsskI searched so long and hard to find this app- buy it once, no ads, no in-app purchases, no gimmicks, just an easy to view and play interface. My loved one has dementia but still really enjoys crossword puzzles and this is an excellent way to keep his mind sharp. The words are big enough to read with a clear font. I wish there were more puzzles because I know he is going to go through these pretty fast, they are great!

Tue Mar 21 2017 +KR.12+These puzzles are great fun and so much easier than using paper & pen or pencil. It's easy to go back and correct mistakes. I like that at the end of the puzzle if I have mistakes I can highlight them. I just really enjoy this app and highly recommend it.

Bought it and immediately deleted it
Sat Sep 07 2019 RosiDarlingIt doesn’t display landscape, which makes it hard to use my iPad Pro keyboard. I have to actually interact with the onboard keyboard instead which defeats the purpose of having a keyboard at all. Wasted money.
