If you love it in the newspaper, you’ll love it even more in a format you can access any place, any time. In this popular game, each letter is replaced with a different one. Your challenge is to decode the puzzle and figure out the quote. You can work at your own pace or compete against other players in a Daily Speed Challenge. CryptoQuote will show you conflicts such as attempting to use the same solution letter twice.

Features: * More than 2000 carefully selected quotes, plus a new Daily Challenge Puzzle each day * Custom keyboard to see the entire puzzle * Share puzzles or quotes with others * Quote of the Day widget * Create your own puzzle or enter one from a newspaper * Letter frequency tool * Word search tool * Physical keyboard support

Great if you like: Sudoku, Crossword puzzles, word search, cipher, encryption, code solving and decoding.

I have played the Daily Challenge every morning and it is no longer available. The Daily Challenge button is ghosted out.

I was happy when the app was finally updated for whichever ios update that was. However, I am unable to record and see my rank in the daily challenge. Very frustrating!! I've tried emailing multiple times and have gotten no response. Please fix this issue or I'm deleting the app. It's been months...

Since the revision of the app, it no longer fits on my ipad. Terrible. I have to scroll, print is huge, very confusing.

Haven’t been able to get a new puzzle for some time. Tried to contact using the help email address but messages wouldn’t go through. What’s going on?

OK, but

Half the time the daily challenge is not accessible. There's lots of built in puzzles,but the program no longer keeps track of what you've solved and starts at the first one every time you try to choose one. there is no way to advance

Maybe the last update improved iPad function, but...

I’ve enjoyed this app for a long time, but the daily challenge now no longer functions. It appears to have something to do with newer iPhones with no home button. After completing the challenge, the app simply locks up and there’s nothing one can do but force quit out.
