What Makes Just Jigsaw Puzzles Stand Out
Put together jigsaw puzzles on your iPad! Choose from a variety of images, then decide the number of pieces. You can alter the background and the appearance of the pieces as well.
Comes with 15 free puzzles, plus the ability to play a daily puzzle or use images from your photo library. You can also add any of six collections featuring 50 beautiful images specially chosen to make great jigsaw puzzles.
The jigsaw puzzles snap together easily just by dragging them across the screen with your fingers. You can play puzzles that take only minutes to solve, or cut the image into small pieces for more of a challenge. You can also use handy arrangement commands to move the pieces around and work with only edge pieces or middle pieces.
Game features:
• Choose whether you want a small number of large pieces or a large number of small pieces, or anything in-between.
• Set the piece edges to appear beveled, with a dark border, or no border.
• Change the background color and pattern.
• When you exit a puzzle, the game remembers the positions of the pieces and you can resume playing later.
• Checkmarks show you which puzzles you have completed, and three dots show you which ones are in progress.
• Play the daily puzzle from JustJigsawPuzzles.com for free.
• Choose any image in your photo library and play it as a puzzle for free. You can use pictures you take with your iPad's camera, or anything you import including photos from your computer.
• Arrange unconnected pieces off to one side, or focus on only the edge or non-edge pieces.
• View the full image as a small moveable window on the screen to help you figure out where the pieces go.
• Includes a quick start video to teach you how to play.
• Get more puzzles to play by adding collections: The Masters, Landmarks, Landscapes, Animals, Space and Cities and Buildings. Each collection includes 50 beautiful hand-picked jigsaw images.
This Entertainment game offers engaging gameplay and regular updates for mobile players.

Community Insight:
Love this! Fun, fast, challenging, quick success! Beauty. We are happy the puzzles are of beautiful art.. A favorite pastime for many years for us! Our grandchildren did Kinkade puzzles for their Mom.. We had them framed and gave them to her for Christmas one year! They said that it would save her a lot of money! The boys were 9 and 7 at the time! Smiles!, keep the artworks coming! Granny Squack.
We really enjoying piecing theses together. The free puzzles are challenging enough for us.some more then other.some lovely pictures.
Love them all, great brain work out for this 87 year old gal.
Im enjoying the game. Just Jigsaws quits when we try to use a photo from our Photo library.
Good app that also lets you select your own photos.
Really great jigsaw game! Beautiful pics and awesome control options.
Love the app, love the variety of puzzles. We like the smaller pieces but the image is still too small, make it larger for those of us with bad eyesight keep everything else the way it is, full page, tiny pieces would make this perfect.
This app lets you make puzzles out of your photo stream. It would be better if you could re-size and crop the photo, but it does allow you to enlarge the puzzle and determine size of the pieces. All in all a Very Good puzzle app.
We really like this app, especially since it is free. The only issue we have is that sometimes it does not save our work. :( Other than that it's great.
Need more free choices….like it though.
How do we save? Tire of restarting all the time.
It keeps on losing our half completed puzzles. It's so annoying. With so many free jigsaw puzzle apps available, stay away from this one.
We are a lifelong jigsaw puzzle fanatic. This app keeps us 100 percent involved and challenged. The app is very interactive. You can increase the level of difficulty of each puzzle, time yourself, change the background color of the puzzle board and do several other things to make the experience more like working on a real puzzle. The choices of puzzles are great also.
Been playing for awhile tonight and so far we are totally absorbed. If u like jigsaw you'll like these,.
Love the puzzles but after finishing the first set you have to buy more.
Entertaining and makes you have to use your brain. Challenging, we like these puzzles.
This app is fun and challenging. You can adjust the level of difficulty for each puzzle so everyone can enjoy solving the puzzles – from beginners to experts. We highly recommend it.
You can adjust the size of the puzzle pieces to adjust the level of difficulty. We also like that you can immediately isolate just the edge pieces.
Great game! The feature to customize the difficulty makes it even more interesting to play. We appreciate the feature which allows the player to review the completed puzzle to assist with solving the puzzle. Good subject matter, very enjoyable.
This app is a lot of fun. Easy to navigate and challenging to do. We would recommend this if you enjoy putting puzzles too.
We find these puzzles addictive. They are our new go to entertainment when we can't sleep and don't want to turn on a light.
Lots of options and choices. Love it.
Like choices of pictures and levels.
A variety of Interesting photos. Challenging and addictive.
We Love this app need moor like it . Also need to be able to use your own pictures ! Thank you.
It was a great discovery to find a good picture puzzle app for a fanatic puzzle fan like ourselves. The pictures are challenging as well as interesting.
This is the best puzzle app. We love the way we can control how many pieces we use as well as the shape of he pieces and the size of the puzzle. This app gives us something fun to do while traveling.
Great game so far. Haven't found any scoring or tracking yet.
Love the variety and options available.
This puzzle app is great fun…live it.
Love the fact that you can take the puzzle from one that a 4 year old can do to one that is challenging for us.
Love the options. Well worth doing for free. After doing all the free ones we purchased another category. This is a relaxing game and has broken our addiction to mahjong. You have to get this game, great stress reliever.
We have been playing the regular computer website puzzles for a long time now, so we were delighted to find that they now had an app for the iPad. This is a wonderful, pleasant game. The choice of the number of pieces makes it easy to decide whether to have a puzzles that takes a short amount of time or a long amount of time! We highly recommender this app for anyone who likes to do jigsaw puzzles.
Thought we might try our hand at doing some jigsaw-ing for real—until we ran across your game—takes up less room too! Now what happens if we want to do a really BIG one.
We think this is a great game, and we bought the artwork version after playing the free version. However, the image of the Himalayan scene from the free version cannot be deleted from the next active puzzle screen, even though we tried to press the "X" on the image. This makes playing any other puzzle difficult because the new and old images are on the screen at the same time. UPDATE: we powered down our iPad, and that seemed to solve the issue. We will also remember to delete the "look" image before we press exit. We can see ourselves getting addicted to this.
We really enjoyed this app. You can make it extremely challenging.
We really like this app. We like the options that you can choose from once you get into the game like background color or moving the pieces to the edges.
Wish the puzzle pieces could be enlarged bit more for our big fingers.
We love jigsaw puzzles, now we can take them with us! Great puzzle choices, and it will sort our pieces for us, the way we choose.
We really enjoy working these. Being able to set the difficulty allows us the opportunity to do the puzzles multiple times w/o becoming bored.
The pictures on our screen are really small,not enough on options to enlarge,but maybe it's us not being able to figure it out.but on a cold day it keeps us entertained.thanks.
More free puzzles would make this a four star.
We love puzzles, this is good. We just wish it included more pics, or let the user his/her own pics. We recommend it.
Of all the apps that we downloaded for jigsaws we love this one… We rate this high at lease ****.
Good app….wish it had more puzzle groups. Also wish the puzzles were a bit more pieces. Good to play.
Love the puzzles, and the different options offered.
This app is great fun and solving puzzles help pass the time. We would recommend this app to other jigsaw puzzle lovers.
Puzzles interesting and fun! Sometimes difficult to move only one piece.
Great free puzzle game. Supplied pictures are interesting, can choose a range of sizes for the puzzle pieces, and can chose to isolate the edge and the middle pieces, and change the background. Would like the option to import our own picture, but other thank that, lots of fun.
Enjoyed this app with the granddaughters.
