“Pop up ads — Update: the pop up ads got worse somehow. I put my phone down out of reach in the middle of a game. Next I look at my screen, a website just loaded itself. No no no. Horrible. They just added pop up ads that disrupt the game…”

What we measured

Themes reported by reviewers
1 theme reported
Counted from the reviews we have read for this app. "No theme reported" means no theme reached our reporting threshold — it is not a finding that nothing is wrong with this app, and we do not say it is.
Five-star share of ratings
Under 65% five-star
Arithmetic on the stores' own published rating counts. It says nothing about why the ratings fall where they do.
In the package we scanned
No package has been scanned for this app, so nothing is published about what it ships. That is an absence of evidence about the app, not a finding about it.

What the analysis found
App-specific findings, grouped by what each one rests on. How they are graded lives on its own page.
The catch list 1
Charges we publish at a strength we stand behind: measured from an artefact, agreed by independent sources, or reported by enough users to clear that charge's own published bar.

Advertising volume or placement that interrupts normal use: ads between every action, unskippable or forced full-screen ads.
What we saw: Raised by 52 distinct reviewers — 10.4% of the 500 reviews scanned on this store leg (App Store).

“Former lover — I used to LOVE this game and it became a part of my morning routine each day. Since the newest update, all I get are ads. The ads take longer to get through than to finish one puzzle. I’m extremely disappointed. The least…”
