I have been paying for and using this app for a number of years now, there has been some bugs and glitches over the years but these usually get ironed out. Recently though the app has been refusing to load on my tablet, it starts to load and immediately blanks out. The same happens when I use an older tablet . I have deleted and reloaded a few times but but can't get past the password entry before it blanks out again. App is working fine on my phone but not really the best way to use.

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.

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.
