Sudoku without subscriptions, ads, or tracking: unique puzzles, smart hints, 9 themes, and full offline privacy.
I am a solo dev and I’ve been a Sudoku lover for years, but lately, finding a good app has felt more like solving a puzzle itself - and not the fun kind.
I was tired of subscriptions. And why does a puzzle app need to track my location or share my data with advertisers? There is visual noise like flashing banners and "collect 100 gems" pop-ups that break my focus. I just want my coffee and a Sudoku. Call me a grumpy old man, but that isn't much to ask for!
I wanted a "Zen" experience. So, I built it myself.
My goal: To create a clean, honest Sudoku for the App Store.
* Pay Once, Keep Forever: No subscriptions, no hidden IAPs. Just a fair price for a premium tool.
* For Everyone: I included 4x4 and 6x6 grids so I could play with my kids and teach them the logic, while keeping the Expert 9x9 tough enough for the pros.
* 100% Privacy: The app works entirely offline. Your data stays where it belongs: on your device. I don’t track you. I only care about your feedback!
So what else is under the hood?
* Unique Grids: Every game is generated on the fly - 100% unique and 100% solvable.
* Tutorial Mode: Learn advanced logic (not just guessing!) with a guide that interacts directly with your current grid.
* Aesthetic Choice: Nine handcrafted themes (Rainbow, Newspaper, High-Contrast, etc.) with full VoiceOver support for accessibility.
* Share Your Logic: Export a beautiful Timelapse Video of your solve.
Own the grid and rediscover the pure joy of logic.
Happy puzzling,
Tobias
I like this app a lot! Definitely a good time waster. I like the different levels of difficulty and the customization as well. My only recommendation is if there can be a “play again” button added after completing the Sudoku! Other than that pretty solid!
Developer Response
Great idea! „Play again“ will come with the next update, promised!
I kept polishing Sudoku Professional: version 2.3 adds new languages, smoother interaction details, and many small improvements that make playing more enjoyable.
Thanks for playing, and enjoy the puzzles!
