FAQs

Can I keep an unfinished puzzle?

Yes. The current board, timer, and notes are saved automatically on this device.

How does Notes mode work?

Turn it on, select a cell, and enter digits to add or remove pencil marks inside that square.

Can I use the keyboard?

Yes. Arrow keys move between cells, number keys enter values, and backspace clears a cell.

Do best times save by difficulty?

Yes. Easy, medium, and hard each keep their own best time record.

How do Sudoku leaderboard scores work?

Only solved puzzles without hints can enter the leaderboard. Hinted solves still update your personal progress.

Does it work well on mobile?

Yes. The board scales down and still keeps the cells large enough to tap comfortably.
