Word Search Pro‧ Reviews

I am really enjoying playing the game where you have a theme & you look for the amount of words with the amount of letters indicated. I enjoy the fact that you’re allowed to gain points by finding & selecting other words outside the theme, HOWEVER, I never have any idea why a word like car will be accepted in one puzzle but rejected in another, or why over half the words I find aren’t accepted, it is extremely frustrating. I find “sea” not a word, “adamant” not a word, but nasty is. Then I find “twinkle” it’s a word, but parts of it are not. “Twin” was, but “wink” was not nor was “win”. Words like “err” or “rye” & other 3 letter words are rarely a word that gets points. I get so frustrated cuz I’ll find large words & they’re not accepted like “waking” or “former”. I really want to know the rules concerning the extra words as it can really drive me nuts, And I know it’s not giving me a certain number of words per puzzle as it will reject then accept in same puzzle. WordSearchPro is a win overall but I feel like I’m going to go cray if someone doesn’t give me the criteria for the extra words. It’s so illogical seeming, like I said some words are accepted sometimes but not others like “run”. Okay happy playing! Sorry for rant. 🤪

Very enjoyable way to pass the time. However, the ads that pop up between games are extremely annoying. I wouldn’t even mind paying a little bit to get rid of them (although it would be irritating), but I don’t see any way to do that. Also, sometimes when you finish a game, a blank white screen appears, and there’s no way to get rid of it except to exit the game and start again. That happened to me today, and even when I tried to start the game again, the white screen was still there.

Update: I just went in to play the game, and all I get is the blank white screen. Very frustrating. I am probably going to delete WordSearchPro even though I really like it, and look for a word search that works all the time. Or maybe I’ll just read a book.

Update: The game froze, and all I could get was a blank, white screen. I wound up deleting it and downloading it again. So far, so good. It’s very enjoyable, and I spend far too much time playing it. This time I paid to get rid of the ads. Big improvement.

I really did enjoy the old version of WordSearchPro when it was an actual word search game. The new update makes it so you have to guess what words you're looking for. I downloaded WordSearchPro to have a word search app. I was pleasantly surprised when I noticed it had daily challenges. I completed quite a few of these but then just a few days ago, they updated WordSearchPro to the current format. In my opinion, this new format is absolutely terrible. Prior to this, the only complaint I had against WordSearchPro was that as a color blind person, it was sometimes hard to see the highlighted words when they blended in with the background so much, but they went ahead and ruined the game with the new update.

***UPDATE***

I have to give WordSearchPro a new rating, because they actually responded to what people were asking for while at the same time keeping the changes that some other people already enjoyed. I want to congratulate WordSearchPro developer for their great attention to customer service. Thank you once again!

First things first, I love love love this word search app. It takes the classic word puzzles and makes it something fresh and new! I play all the time. There are a few kinks to work out though. Highlighting words can sometimes be a little finicky, and the bonus words (the star that fills up in puzzle mode) needs to expand its word database a bit. I understand that you don’t want every little word to give coins because that’s how you make money with WordSearchPro, that’s fair. But things like KING, SITE, RIFT, TAP, and more uncommon words aren’t recognized. I don’t know exactly how the bonus is rooted, if you guys search for bonus words or put them there purposely so only those work so you miss some, or if there’s a word database, but I’d love to see more uncommon words count! Otherwise great game keep up the good work guys

I really like this version of word search. It’s not anything fancy with lots of sounds or graphics. It’s the perfect gaming app to help pass the time while attending to life’s boring moments (e.g. doctor’s waiting rooms, airport layovers, bar mitzvahs, waiting at the DMV, hanging out after awkward holiday meals while everyone scatters either to watch some sporting event, take a nap, or to make small talk with weird relatives, etc). What I don’t love is the constant mislabeling or misidentifying words into categories they don’t belong in. Just now, I played a level entitled Classic Board Games (Level 1254) and I couldn’t figure out the last word for awhile...and it was only a three letter word! Turns out, it was Uno. I ended up finding it but it just irritates me because Uno isn’t a board game, it’s a card game. I know it might not seem like that big of a deal, but to me it is. Especially when I’ve been playing your app forever. I will continue to play your app. I just ask that you step up the quality control/editing. Thank you 😊

I downloaded the free app to help kill spare time throughout the day and to help deal with my anxiety. Word searches take me back to a similar time, and I use them as a relaxing method. The game is full of adds after every game it’s an add which takes way longer than the game itself. I purchased the no ads option and after two games the adds came back. I deleted and redownloaded WordSearchPro , and it still had adds. I reached out to support and never got an answer. As of today they still had adds and have not replied or agreed to reimburse me for the money I spent to get a service I never received. This is a poor way to run a business and WordSearchPro is unusable with the adds. If I would have at least received a response from support it would have made me forgive any mistakes or misgivings. But they chose to take my money and not respond to me. I have deleted WordSearchPro and will not download any future apps from this provider. And recommend you stay away as well Because of all this I give WordSearchPro zero stars, as this review requires me to select a star I selected 1 Star but if I could it would be Zero.

These word searches start if easy then get harder. First in going to talk about the glows. For the levels there is no time limit but on the challenges there is a minute for every word. Personally I love word searches so you might get on WordSearchPro and be like, “This ain’t cool!” But this review isn’t for everyone. We all have our own opinions and, mine is I love this game . Okay more about the game. There’s levels that’ll have up to 40 parts to it those ones are really hard. You will start out with 5 and work your way up. All this stuff is why I’m giving it 5 stars. Now we talk about the grows. This game has hints but when you run out you have to rate the game or buy some for a lot of money. Another grow is that they use ads too much. Not like those tab tale apps but they use horrible ads. These are all the things that I’d like to talk about for this AMAZING app.

So I love this game, I think it’s super fun, and it’s really great for procrastinating my dissertation. I play it every day and it takes up hours of my time. Which is great, I’m loving it. But twice now the game has majorly crashed on me. I click to open it and the screen shows up for about two seconds then goes back to my phone background. I click out to see the apps I have running and it shows up as working, but then doesn’t run when I click on it, shutting off back to my home screen again. The first time I had to delete it to get it to work again, which erased all the data. And it’s been fine for the past two weeks or so but it’s acting up again and I can’t play it anymore. I don’t know if it’s an issue with phone system compatibility or with WordSearchPro , but it’s really getting my goat. I’d really like to not restart the game and challenges all over (for the second time). So all-in-all it’s a great game, but it’s buggy as heck in my opinion.

I love this game so much at school I got in trouble playing it !I showed my teacher how I was stuck to it and I did not want to go to the principals office !I told my teacher to download the game her phone and try it and if she liked it I would not go to the principals office !So she downloaded the game on her phone in the middle of a math lesson that I did not understand but got it after a while !Anyway she downloaded the game she played it for the rest of the math lesson I did not understand as you know !Okay so she downloaded the game also know as a cross word puzzle game !Anyway as I was saying she downloaded the cross word puzzle game and she played 20 games and she loved it so much that she told all the kids who had a phone to download it and then she told me to tell the principal to download the game on his phone !

Sooo.... I'm not happy with the new update because, there are so many bugs including:Answering the word problem but it taking you right back to the same one you just answered, Having a hard time to see if you like your brightness all the way up, or just not liking the update. It brings happiness to all the people except for the ones who are COLOURBLIND or as I call it CSD-Colour Seeing Disorder. What they have to go through during the game makes it even more challenging than the game already is, I'm not trying to hate on the game that's the main reason I'm making this review. All I'm saying is that I like the old version better than the nice pastel, galaxy one that is here now anyways I want to tell you some ways you can improve the game including:Changing the background to a more quality colour and making sure it's not so bright, and last keep adding more categories. Thanks!

I am going to complain to Apple. I paid the $2.99 to remove the long ads that are there but I still get the ads. There has been no response to my message by the company. Obviously this is a glitch they need to fix or refund the money. The sad thing is the word puzzles are wonderful. But I don’t have time nor power on my phone for such long ads that don’t even indicate when they have ended, and I have to click extra to find the X to end the video. And it is not just paying $2.99 for nothing. I feel Apple should know and warn people not to pay. And Apple should be made award that the company doesn’t care. It’s the principal of it. Another reviewer suggested reinstalling WordSearchPro . I tried that and the ads returned after 5 minutes. Irritating to spend more time on ads than puzzles. I will probably delete WordSearchPro and use word game apps that don’t play ads, have shorter ads or don’t charge for something that doesn’t work!

I wasn’t really optimistic about playing a word search game on an app because I didn’t know if it would be challenging enough. But this game really does the trick. Upside down, inside out, it seriously has every aspect of word search you can ask for in different levels, categories, and game types. I love how there is a battle style word search, it really gets you going, and the marathon style one really tests your nerves. I used to like playing word search only on paper but this has me addicted. I love WordSearchPro! Superb, awesome, above and beyond. And also BIGGEST BIGGEST BIGGEST advantage, no stupid advertisements popping up every 5 second. Probably every 30 minutes at and very short ones, also only during specific games. LOVVVE EVERYTHING ABOUT WordSearchPro.

I love this and have completed numerous puzzles. Now the problem. While working on a puzzle you had a word listen twice one of which was at the top and out of alphabetical order. I completed the puzzle but because of this double word it won’t close and won’t allow me to continue to the next puzzle. I have tried turning off my system and when I turn it back on the same puzzle is there. The word is sea weed. It is spelled as one word in alphabetical order and as 2 words at the top out of order. Sure hope you find and fix this problem

This is the second time that I can’t complete the word search. Again a double word Cape Town shows in the word list twice, once at the top out of order and then in the list. It locks up the puzzle. I can’t complete it and I can’t go to the next puzzle.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one that hates the new update. I've only had the free app for a month and though it had a few glitches, I loved it - even with the ads. It was a 5 star! Now, I miss the old daily search and it freezes multiple times a day. Plus , I don't even get a new hint every hour, much less every 15 minutes! It just says that an ad is not available and to try later. It's been hours!!! Even though it says there is no ad available, every time I go out of the current puzzle I sure get an ad. In addition the timer is way off. There are times when I know I’ve been struggling with the daily puzzle for a while and when I finish it says I only took a minute or too! Same with the daily classic - it says It took me 3 minutes but on the summary pop up it says I only took 1.45 minutes! Huh?! And what are the coins about? There is no explanation about how you earn them or use them. What were you thinking?! Fix it or bring back the previous version!!

I personally think WordSearchPro is great. It really challenges my mind a bit. But, sometimes I see things that I don’t know if it’s my grammar or there’s. Because sometimes I would see something like “Player Piano” shouldn’t it be “Piano player”? Maybe I’m just confused or something or I just don’t know what “Player Piano” means. And sometimes (this is just me talking) but sometimes I feel a little bit confused. In other ways it’s kind of random. Like sometimes there will be names or random words that I don’t know or word that are just there. I think that there should be a title telling you what words you are trying to find or a dictionary telling you what the word means. But all in all I think WordSearchPro is fun and great!

I have always loved to do word searches and puzzles, whether on pen and paper or on my phone. However, many of them I never found challenging enough. This game has an “extreme” mode with different variations that really give me the opportunity to have to pause and seek out clues to find the word. There are of course short ads and certain levels which need to be paid to be unlocked, but after playing for a total of 7.5 hours so far, I am still on the first category (animals) and have many, many more free ones left to explore, and that doesn’t even include puzzle mode which I have yet to break into. I am also enjoying the new “battle” feature where I can play against someone live. Great game!!

I really like the simplicity and aesthetics of this game, it’s a very simple and straightforward word search with some helpful boosts and hints available, the two reasons I’m taking off a star are that it takes a pretty good while to accumulate enough points to buy even one hint from playing the game naturally, and you can watch an ad for 25 points but one hint costs 100 and one usually isn’t enough if it’s hard enough that you need to use one in the first place. I also wish it was easier to exit a search I’m stuck on and start a new one and come back to it later. You can go back and replay older levels with new words to look for though. Just nitpicking at this point, I really enjoy it as a relaxing/distracting game :)

I’m a forty-something year old home school mom. Just got my first (old) smart phone a few months ago. I’m new to all the glitz and glamor this phone has to offer. I started with Solitaire, because it’s all I knew. Once a little more familiar with the phone, I searched for a new game that was fun and didn’t take a lot of my time. Reading the reviews for another word search game, I decided to skip that one. Searching a little further, I found this word search game, read the reviews and decided on this one. I have only played (classic) 3 or 4 times, but I am very happy with the game so far! Easy to use, quick games for those of us with limited breaks. Sometimes the different colors confuse my eyes, but I just view it as a challenge.

What I like: - Multiple levels - Challenging puzzle searches - Colorful
What I don’t like: - Ads after every single search - No option to choose colors for lines when “crossing out” words - Several “puzzles” have words that don’t even match the subject you are searching words for - When doing daily challenge, if you get stumped and exit on the puzzle then it won’t let you click to do the other search when you go back, forces you to resume puzzle portion Simply put, I wanted a word search so I just picked one to download and other than the ads the game is fine. Do I hate it? Meh not really (I can skip to shorten the ads at least) Do I love this game? No, nothing about it excites me enough to create an “ooooh wow I LOVE this game sooo much” reaction

I think the word search app is great! The word searches are on very familiar topics. A thing that makes the word searches a little bit more difficult is that they don’t give you the words, however, they do give you the number of letters in the words. I love how WordSearchPro is free. However, there are in-app purchases. They do give you hints in the beginning when you start out but, once you use all of your hints you must pay for more. Sometimes they do give you hints for fun. The word searches stay very easy for a while with only about 4 columns and 4 rows, but, once you keep on going through other packs, the puzzles will get bigger and more challenging. Thank you for taking time to read my review and I strongly recommend WordSearchPro for people who love a little brain puzzle.
