Intermittently for half a year.

What need of the user did you have in mind when developing this app?

This app was actually developed for myself. I think that users like to solve Sudoku puzzles and hope to have a handy app and a high quality puzzle.

In what way do you think your app is better than similar apps on the market? Please describe in detail what innovation you think you bring and what you are proud of in your app.

Some of the other apps' UI designs are beautiful, but don't have high quality puzzles. Some apps have a high quality puzzle, but very poor UI, and that's why my app's at an advantage, it has a simple UI and a high quality puzzle.

What are your future plans and expected features of the coming new versions of this app?

Add more editor's choice puzzles. Add puzzles with more difficulties.

Assuming new users of your app are reading this page. What do you want to ask them to do (contact you about X, Share the app, etc.)?

When do you usually play Sudoku?
