Crosscue
Offline crossword solver
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Import your own .puz or .ipuz puzzles and solve them with a clean, native interface. No accounts, no ads, no tracking.
Crosscue is a modern, native crossword solver for iOS — built for people who already have crossword files they want to solve, not a daily puzzle subscription.
IMPORT YOUR OWN PUZZLES
• Open .puz and .ipuz files from Mail, Files, Messages, or any app that shares them
• Works fully offline — once a puzzle is imported, you don't need a connection
CLEAN, FAST SOLVING
• Native keyboard that respects your iOS settings (light/dark, dynamic type)
• Swipe to switch between Across and Down
• Rebus entry for multi-letter answers (long-press a cell)
• Auto-advance, skip filled cells, jump to next clue
• Times tracked per puzzle; pick up where you left off
PRIVACY-FIRST
• No accounts, no sign-up
• No ads, no analytics, no third-party trackers
• Your puzzles stay on your device
Crosscue is free and ad-free. If you find a bug or have a feature request, open an issue at github.com/AtomicTrxn/crosscue.
