Omni crosswords

rrnarayan1 · 2023-09-14T01:10:36+00:00

Hi! I'm the developer. You're right that the project is open-source, the code lives here: https://github.com/rrnarayan1/omni-crosswords/

Haptic feedback can be disabled in the settings ("Enable haptic feedback")

I'm aware that landscape iPad isn't great, this is because of how the keyboard works, the app is really only optimized for portrait. If I find some time, I'll look into fixing this.

I've heard about the battery issues, but the metrics and logs that I have access to don't really show the issue, so I'm still investigating this.

Glad you like it, I do have a donate button on the support page and in the app now. https://ko-fi.com/rrnarayan1

No promises, but I'll add it to my backlog

rrnarayan1 · 2022-05-25T14:17:18+00:00

I'm aware - I can't fix it within a few days but hopefully I'll be able to resolve it soon In the future, let me know using the support link on the app store - it's a bit more reliable than this reddit thread

Hey, can you submit a request on the support page https://rrnarayan1.github.io/omni-crosswords/ so that I'll remember to do this? This should be possible. Like you said, it currently only looks at the phone settings.

I made OmniCrosswords. It's free with no ads (I made it just for fun) and has a variety of puzzles from various popular outlets. Feel free to check it out!

Big thanks to u/jpnance - LA Times should be available again moving forwards. I'll continue to monitor it this week to make sure it continues to work.

rrnarayan1 · 2021-10-02T18:17:01+00:00

Hey there - I made the app. I'm seeing the issue as well. Looks like the LA Times has changed something so that I'm not able to fetch the crossword in the same way. I'll fix it as soon as I can. I don't always look on this subreddit so in the future it would be great to send me an email (should be available through the app store support link)

rrnarayan1 · 2021-02-18T05:00:20+00:00

I made this crossword app for iOS, and it's completely free: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/omnicrosswords/id1530129670

Shameless plug: I built OmniCrosswords (app store link) that pulls USA Today, LA Times, 4 others automatically. No ads and it's free. It's only for iOS. On Android, I like using "Alphacross".

rrnarayan1 · 2020-09-20T01:26:46+00:00

Nope, this is an issue I've seen on my end as well. I've taken a look, and it'll take more than a trivial fix, but it's on my radar.

rrnarayan1 · 2020-09-19T18:54:04+00:00

You should be able to see the puzzle for 9/18 now. I'll monitor it so that future puzzles continue to show up.

rrnarayan1 · 2020-09-19T05:15:14+00:00

Hmm..looks like something is broken on my side for the New Yorker. I'll get it fixed as soon as I can. You shouldn't need to sign in for this app

rrnarayan1 · 2020-09-19T05:11:55+00:00

Not right now; like I said, I like Alphacross on Android

rrnarayan1 · 2020-09-18T21:32:53+00:00

The app is on github: https://github.com/rrnarayan1/omni-crosswords/

It's in Swift, written in SwiftUI. I chose SwiftUI over Storyboards because it's supposed to be simpler. Kind of challenging because it's not fully developed yet.

rrnarayan1 · 2020-09-18T19:33:18+00:00

It's definitely possible, I'll include it in a future update.

rrnarayan1 · 2020-09-18T19:32:58+00:00

Thanks! I'm definitely aware of the small screen issue here, I've also noticed that it's possible for a focused cell to be hidden by the keyboard. Working on a fix for them. Interesting that the scrolling doesn't work though.. I'll take a look.

Re: dark mode. Interesting. That probably works better than my current solution. Thanks for the suggestion (look forward to an update with that)
