Community Insight:
Title says it all but this app is 5 stars for friendly user use and ease of navigation.
For the past few weeks the App is NOT working. It only uses 2 letters out of the 7 you have to use. Whats up.
Im having a problem with cheat master and dont see where to post it. When we upload our words with friends board cheat master only shows 6 of our letters rather than 7. There is a button in the way for where our 7th letter should go. Help.
It helps us cheat with random people an helps us win LOL.
When we go for help, and it says see video, after watching the video, and the time has expired, there used to be and X appear in a corner to go to the next screen, many many times , there is no X to click on to change the screen and proceed, we are stuck on that screen, cant get OFF!! Not able to continue and proceed !!! Very frustrating !! Did not used to do that ever, now very frequent, snd discouraging.
App not working going on 3 days please fix paid for it. App mess up please fix.
Back to the game button went away.
Cant link back to the WWF app anymore.
The apps effectiveness is because of the offering of choices. Choose for location and then work it out yourself. Or chose a lesser answer for instructive scoring. It works.
Fun to use a lot of the time but often doesnt see all the letters on the board correctly especially where it is suggesting you play. So it is all wrong in those instances.
Very nice to use it- it confirms what words or placements we were thinking of using. Love the challenge.
Hey, DI is not an acceptable WWF word.
We recently redownloaded this app after it stopped working for us awhile ago. It will download our screen, allow us to watch a video for 30 seconds, show the x to close and get our free clue, but it then will not close. We have watched five different videos but none will close at the end or give us a free clue! HELP.
WWF2 is constantly changing. Sometimes the tiles are not recognized by this app making it useless. When it works it is great, but it is frustrating when it doesnt.
About 1 in 4 times, it just shuts down after the ad.
For the most part, its a good app. Sometimes it doesnt work. It boots us out or all our letters dont show up like its supposed to.
Doesnt allow you to get access to the keys at times and it at times gives us an error.
This app really helps us beat the computer, one time we got 176 points on 1 word. The disadvantage is that you only have 5 keys and you have to either buy some more or watch countless ads. We found that you can delete and reinstall it and you will have 5 more keys but that takes valuable time. We would recommend this to anyone that needs help with words with friends.
Usually works great but needs an update at the moment.
We paid for unlimited keys. We have multiple games going, and often we get could not process the picture error message, and sometimes its not even the highest scoring word after Ive played it.
This app frequently doesnt work.
Nice app until it stopped working. Unable to send screen shot.
This app worked like a charm. Now we cannot go back to the game. We have to close this app and reopen words with friends. What is the deal? Also your app used to pick up the photo when we took it. NOw we have to close the app (again) and choose the photo then close the app and go open words with friends. Did you not update to iOS 17? Very disappointing.
We constantly get pop-ups that say to go get two free keys but you never get them. It also suggests words that are not acceptable. When it works it works great but when it doesnt its a big failure.
When we import our screenshot as soon as it appears on the screen it just disappears. Is there anyone who can help us.
With the new update there are new boards. And so the score is not accurately reflected. Also more than once we have found words that dont show up on the app.
Screenshot helps sometimes but does not show correct boxes once imported for more points when playing words with friends.
Lately only shows one letter added to existing word.
Love the app. Please make it where we can pay for unlimited use.
App hasnt worked in over 3 months still have unused keys that we PAID for no way to contact support.
Two in ten times the app photographs incorrectly and gives you an answer that doesnt work. You waste one answer and have to pay for a second one.
So despite its name, its actually not the cheat master. We used a different app after this one only gave us a 7 point word and with the exact same screenshot, the other app gave us a 22 point word. This app even locked that 7 point word while the other app gave us the word for free, no ad needed.
The Royal Match ads never stop. You cant exit them to get back to the app even after 60 seconds. Truly obnoxious.
More than often the app suggests words but we find words on our own that score higher than the apps highest scoring word. They definitely need to upgrade the app.
Cheat masters is not working properly. For the lady 20 or more times it just gives us an error and offers no help. 4/12/2020 Still not able to use keys to help solve puzzles. Has been 2 months and you gave done nothing. What bus going on? Are all your techs not working g because of the virus. Our son works for a computer company that solves problems from home. Can your company not do the same? Or do you just not care. Once again we are trying to get you to do something about this app. We Play words with friends 2 constantly. Cheat master will not work anymore. It just gives us error messages. It is useless as an aide to the game. We are about to give up. You guys obviously do not care enough this app to make it work properly. Still only getting error message every time we try to use it. For at least 3 months we have not been able to use either Cheat Master or Cheat for words. They both give us constant error messages. We love the game but if you cannot get it working properly, we are sure you will lose a lot of players.
Tells you to check compatibility. Shows that you have the supported version but still fails to scan! Deleted.
What a joke. No way 43k. Doesnt work at all. This app should be removed.
This has not worked for three weeks now and we have sent you reports numerous times. Its annoying and there is no way to contact you other than this ridiculous way. What is your email address?????? We dont want to rate you because at this point we wouldnt give it one star but since you are FORCING us to Ill give it ONE star.
Now it never works. Time to find a new appluckily there are many others out there.
Its great when it works, 99% of the time it doesnt work.
Keeps saying unable to import board. Tried to send screen shots via email. The email Doesnt work.
Keeps suggesting DI as a choice, but WWF says DI isnt a valid word, we have wasted so many keys on this.
They added some advertising recently. The app was taking up 25 gb (almost half) of our IPhone total storage. We had to delete it.
We can't get this to work at all anymore. It worked great for a while. It'll tell us to email the issue. We have several times. We done everything it tells us to do. Guess we're out our money because this app stopped working and they won't fix it. It's been going on for 2 months now.
The word DI is not a valid word in Words With Friends. Please take it out of your suggested uses on the board. Ive wasted many keys on this suggestion. Thank you.
This app used to be great but now it only uses 4 of your tiles to creat words! So that really doesnt help us think of the best word.
We have wasted a good 25 plays where there was no such word! It even gave us a word but instead of giving us 45 pts it gave us 21! We played the word exactly how it was shown ! Also, it put letters where our opponent didnt play and gives a word from that but the word didnt exist! Ugh!! We see it was a mistake downloading this one.
We find several of the ads very offensive. The ones with the nurse. Dr. And patient and another similar one. ( kiss him, dont kiss him ) ad.
After we import the picture the app will flash then go away it happy on our iPhone and iPad, we've removed it and added it back still the same thing.
We love this helpful app! We only try to use it when Im stuck with letters we cant figure out a word for which happens a lot.
