Community Insight:
We are totally loving this app. Didnt know we could do puzzles but up to 300 piece puzzle, totally addicted.
Our only comment is we wish you would identify where these places are/such as the castles, luxury homes, etc.
We do puzzles daily…it keeps our mind healthy.
So many to choose from, able to select difficulty level and enjoy many varieties.
We play this often, particularly while traveling and listening to a book. You can't go wrong with Boy Howdy, clean, no crashes, and easy to play. Enjoy.
Whats the best photo size in pixels for an ipad pro 12 inch.
We downloaded this game less than a month ago, And may we tell you how happy we are that we did. We needed a puzzle that would relax us and allow our mind to have a go to game that is fun, relaxing, and mind stimulating. This puzzle has tons of great categories and choices for you to choose. We choose this time and time again over watching a movie, or reading a good book. Give it a try!! Very Satisfied.
We love the variety of the pictures, and the customer support. If you write to them, they actually reply! It is fun trying to guess what the puzzles might be. Just finished a library room and not until the last few pieces did we discover a person browsing in it. Sometimes an eye will appear as two pieces click together, a little eery until it all comes together as a fish or kitten. We would give six stars.
Not only does this app have more than enough puzzles and options and an intuitive user interface, it has excellent and timely tech support. Don't need to go anywhere else for jigsaw puzzles.
Best puzzle ever, we are addicted.
Love the puzzles! Thanks for the fun.
We have so much fun doing these puzzles. We usually do one a day, especially early morning when we are not ready to greet the day. We find they also teach lessons in subtle growth, like patience, discernment and serenity. We also play with our grandson where we learn to exercise our imagination. We named all the pieces, such as Jumping Man, Man on a horse, Robotman, etc. Tons of fun.
We love the fact that when Im on a role the puzzles change every hour.
On our other site, the pieces change their position shape we wish we could call them to tell them. Love your puzzles!!!! Erica J Shatz-Spry.
We love this app. We have the original jigsaw puzzle app by Boy Howdy, too. This one is excellent. New puzzles every hour, and a great library of pictures to play with. You can even import your own photos and turn them into jigsaw puzzles! We usually play the stationary version, but have also played the expert version where you can rotate the pieces. Both are fun. A great appenjoy it.
We are homebound. Keeps us busy. Love all the different puzzle choices.
Awesome app, easy to use with varying skill levels, many picture choices that are well organized, and overall very intuitive to use. But GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE sets this app apart from its competitors. We wrote to the developer with a "problem" and received a reply with solutions from a real person in about two hours! Turns out the app was fine–it was our error. We wrote back to let them know and received a reply back that they were glad it had been resolved. Doesn't get any better than that. You have a loyal customer. Thanks.
Been enjoying these puzzles for years. Thank you.
We love this this app and use it all the time. The only thing missing is a timer. Addendum: we dont know what happened with the last update but its infuriating. About 80% of the time when you press the button to see the completed puzzle, the program shuts down. Grrrrrr! Please fix this! 2nd Addendum: 2 weeks later and you still havent fixed the press to see puzzle option. Roughly 60% of the time pressing the button crashes the program causing it to shut down. You acknowledged our previous addendum stating you were aware of this problem in iOS devices. Aware is good. Fixing it would be better! It really is seriously off putting New Addendum: PLEASE FIX THE iOS APP PROBLEM IVE BEEN COMMENTING ON FOR OVER A MONTH!!! We AM BEGGING YOU. WHATS IT GOING TO TAKE.
Love this ap. Lovely choices of puzzles. You can use your own photos, too! And you control how difficult because its your choice of number of pieces.
We're in bed quite often for days on end- on disability for several on-going conditions. And get bored with the tv on for days on end! So we assemble your puzzles! And when we have all this confined time, we love to use some of our own pics to use, as well! Love the sizing ability, too, as some days we can't see the small pieces either! Great product for aging grandmas!! Thank you.
Still needs more insect puzzles that are not your typical butterflies, dragonflies, and ladybug/ladybird beetles. You need that to help educate people, especially the young! Also, you should include their names, and the names of the other pictures in the puzzles. Thank You for Listening.
06SEP20 Ive enjoyed playing jigsaw for hours every day. But since the last two (2) Updates, making use of drop down menu (IPad) closes the jigsaw App. It didnt do this before. There is no drop down menu access we can do without the jigsaw closing. We have over 1/2 of total memory available and Im completely update ass available. Otherwise, Im very happy with this App. And highly recommend it.
We gave it ac3 star because the pieces don't always look like they will fit.
We like the options. The way its laid out on the outside of the puzzles annoys us because its too packed for us to see which shape Im looking for.
We totally love this app better than any we have tried EXCEPT for the pop ups. Every time we try to pull a puzzle piece from the bottom of the screen, a pop up appears. It is so annoying that we are seriously considering deleting the app. Can something not be done to stop that.
Its a pretty good free app. Has issues with freezing up and the pieces dont always snap well. We have to futz with them a lot to get them to snap together, especially in zoom mode which is all we usually use.
Our friend and we do the same puzzles every eve and see who finishes first. Our puzzles are the most relaxing , enjoyable, interesting end of the day activity for us SENIORS. Thank you for this fun entertainment.
The puzzle selections are truly breathtaking and the applications has many choices in working out a puzzle that can make it more or less challenging. This is a relaxing and educational way to pass the time, and we highly recommend Totally Fun Jigsaw Puzzles.
Fun game lots of different ones keeps you busy.
We love these puzzles. Especially the dog ones thank you for making them interesting.
Our favorite pastime has always been jigsaw puzzles. You do not disappoint us we love the puzzles we have access to. Thank you so much for giving us access to them and the ability to enjoy them everyday.
We are hooked on the puzzles! We love that our grandchildren also enjoy with the options of the number pieces.
Love this jigsaw app. You can choose from hourly puzzles, daily puzzles, their entire puzzle options and – our favorite – mystery puzzles. Puzzles are easy, clear and fun to work. Highly recommend this app.
This is the best puzzle site we have ever used! Thanks.
We would love more colorful puzzles. Thanks.
What a great idea. A calming jigsaw puzzle (the 400 piece size is perfect on an iPad) while enjoying your favorite photos all over again. Or take a screen shot of any picture in the internet and use that.
A friend introduced us to this app and we have enjoyed it immensely.
We love this game. We can enlarge the pieces to see where they fit in the picture, then with a tap, make the picture smaller to fit in in.
One of the best apps we have found on the IPad App Store. Really fun and you can use your own pics.
We love this app because it allows us to use our own photos! Thats ALL we want to use.
We are really enjoying this. We love that we can choose how many pieces we want the puzzle to be. There is a nice selection of images and we can even use our own.
We love this free app. Tried five others and so annoyed with so few features and so many ads with the others. This one is great, love that they have nice photos, great options, no annoying ads (there ARE non-annoying ones), can easily use our own photos or downloaded images. Simple, basic, more like a physical jigsaw puzzle.
We really really love doing Howdy puzzles. Especially the mystery ones.
Cnt get enough of this game. Luvin it.
We just love this app! They NEVER ask you to pay for anything! You can even download your own pictures from your phone and you can save them to your photos as well! Our grandson loves putting puzzles together of his sister, cousins and him. Thank you for this awesome app.
We always used to sit with our Grandfather, working on puzzles. A great memory.
We really love this puzzle game. We play it daily! It has a lot of options available: sending a completed puzzle to a friend, saving the puzzles to our device photos, varying the number of pieces (size), and even a piece rotation. There are almost endless ways to reuse a puzzle and stay challenged. The puzzles are beautiful and have many different subjects to appeal to all players. The support contact is prompt and very helpful. We delete games that will not get back to us for the help we need. We highly recommend this puzzle game!! Great job BHT.
The pictures are beautiful and excellent photographs. So much joy to work. We love your work !! Thank you for all you do.
Cant believe its free and what a god-send in these times we are stuck at home.
