Crosswords broken 2.0.1 with Android version 15. This could relate to an Android update as it happened immediately after that. A lot of the time selecting a cell just highlights that cell in light yellow instead of selecting the clue. This happens almost every time when you try to select a down clue so the puzzle is impossible in grid view. Additional minor niggle on my screen (pixel 8 pro) the puzzle is about 2 pixels too wide, which has always been the case.

I am a long time user of this app. It now fails to save puzzles . I have completed hundreds of puzzles on the app and now am unable to reload and continue any of them. In short , all my data has been lost. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, however the data remains lost. The developer needs to read this and sort this mess out.

Generally good app, but two things stand out. One is that nothing syncs between desktop and mobile. I have to login for both, there is no reason to not have data shared. Two is that the app's keyboard is so small, it's nearly impossible to complete a crossword without errors or retyping in the answer many times. I don't know why they've made their own keyboard about 33% smaller than the standard Android keyboard.
