Great app and games. One issue

I love this app and play the games daily. One problem is that my sudoku is only showing yesterdays games. I’ve tried rebooting my phone and the app.
It still shows the games from the 25th

Great challenge

Only started doing English crosswords recently and what better way to learn than from then masters.

Good App

The app functions seamlessly, it has good features. The puzzles assume too much knowledge of American culture, I found most of them unplayable, not because of lack of knowledge of English but just cultural differences.
