Really good app, although has occasional bugs, such as negative bonus in the conundrum round. Also a couple of simple improvements would really help: Would be good to have a "that'll do" button in the letters round to speed up play when you've got a word you think you can't beat Add configurable times: 30 seconds is obviously true too the original, but it's too fast for kids / slow typists. Being able to up it to 60s would make it a great educational tool.

Great app. I never ever have any problems with it and I play it for hours & hours into the night! Only thing I would of liked added to it would be different levels in difficulty. But that's not important. It's an excellent app and its free!

Been playing this for ages, great for killing a bit of time. Read somewhere about shuffling tbe letters, just shake your phone to do this. Only reason i am rating 4/5 and not 5/5 is sometimes you get the conundrum correct but it comes up as incorrect also the working out of the maths round auto generated does not always add up eg numbers should be in brackets to work.

It's my turn to host online Game Night this week and I was looking for a way to play Countdown via Zoom. This app is just what I needed - thanks!

Unfortunately it's been years since this game had any maintenance and it's very buggy. Too bad because it was most like the show so far.

It works very well but the dictionary used must be non UK English as Spaniard and various other words aren't in there, and there are plenty of bizarre words that don't exist.
