2.0.3
September 17, 2019 Fixes a crash when completing the last puzzle in a volume. Improves the "Congratulations" screen layout for small screens and Anonymous-type authors. De-emphasizes solved puzzles in the list to make it easier to see new versus solved status. Correctly measures puzzle timing when switching between an active puzzle and other apps.

As you can see, I'm listening to your support questions and suggestions! Use the Help – Contact Support link anytime to reach me. Thanks, Michael @ Egghead Games
2.0.2
September 11, 2019 A quick fix for a crash that happens at the end of a puzzle, sometimes, for some people.

42205 new validated quotes are now available via a monthly subscription. These include all the same features you already love, like timed ratings, author biographical information and links. The app has also been upgraded to use the latest Apple features, with better use of large iPad screens, automatic adjustment for large text sizes and full screen on iPhone X phones.

This was a pretty big update under the covers, so if you have any problems at all, please email me at support@eggheadgames.com with any problems, suggestions or questions. I'll quickly do another release if necessary!

Cheers, Michael @ Egghead Games.

1.4.0
June 27, 2017 Game play remains unchanged - fast and optimized for your puzzling delight! However, behind the scenes we removed 178,961 lines of code from Google, Facebook and Twitter. In keeping with our core company principles, we've stopped using their convenient monitoring and sharing features so that you are no longer tracked and correlated for other company's advertising purposes. Apple now provides helpful (anonymized) data like operating system versions, device usage along with improved crash reporting etc., and that should be enough to help us provide you with good support and a stable application.

We also:
* improved About and split up the help file into bite-sized chunks (Guide, Company, Privacy, etc)
* improved the About - Contact Support feature (try it - we love to hear from you!)
* added & consolidated other features into About, like: Share, Leave Review, various links
* removed the "Please Update" nag - Apple provides plenty of those already!
* updated to the latest Apple iOS code, bug fixes and device support
* removed the sounds, in keeping with the latest recommended best practices (though we sort of miss them...)
* fixed some rare bugs

As always, we love to hear your suggestions, questions and problems. Contact us in the app, or email support@eggheadgames.com. We reply promptly. Happy puzzling!
1.3.7
October 19, 2016 This version is mostly internal updates to catch up with the changes made by Apple with the release of iOS 10. There are a few small tweaks to menu items and a couple of bug fixes (e.g. a rare situation with two congratulations screens doesn't happen anymore). We have more small changes coming in next few weeks, so be sure to let us know if notice something that isn't quite right.

As always, if you have any questions, suggestions or problems, tap About -> Send Feedback. We love to hear from you!
1.3.6
July 12, 2016 This week, we've continued our string of small updates. We removed the footer on the "Congratulations" page (thereby fixing a little bug we hope you missed), and also made the purchase buttons behave like "proper" iOS buttons when you tap them. As always email *any* questions to support@eggheadgames.com.

In case you've been following along, we won't be doing another weekly release until August, when we'll resume our normal schedule. Our release person wanted to go camping with their kids over summer, and we're a family friendly company that thinks life is too short. We'll see you again soon!
1.3.5
July 7, 2016 This week's changes are invisible, except for one. We've consolidated three home page buttons into a single "About" button at the top right. This makes scrolling cleaner and just looks "nicer". You can still reach us with Feedback, or leave a review (it really helps!).

Some of the other 78 internal changes spread through 63 files may make things a little quicker depending on your device and may improve Accessibility depending on your settings and iOS version. As always, let us know if you have suggestions, questions or problems. Just use About -> Send Feedback, or email directly to support@eggheadgames.com. We love to hear from you!
1.3.4
June 29, 2016 This latest weekly release fixed a tiny problem you never noticed where the volume checkmark would get out of sync with the header. We also did some pixel alignment on the volume images - our designer says they're much clearer now but it's geek to me - and more internal spring cleaning in preparation for some new puzzles.
1.3.3
June 21, 2016 This week we've updated the home page to make it easier to use as well as adding a splash of color. We removed the cryptic symbols for difficulty and playing order and replaced them with plain old text. Then we colored the icons for a bit of pizazz.

Please take a moment to add a rating or write a review. It's how Apple ranks the search results to help people find the app, so it makes a big difference to sales — and our ability to keep funding improvements.

We respond promptly to emails at support@eggheadgames.com. Happy puzzling!
1.3.2
June 17, 2016 We fixed a bug that appears when solving the bottom half of a zoomed in puzzle. This was an unintended part of a recent improvement to allow you to zoom the text to any size you want. Many apologies to those who were affected by this. This is not our normal level of quality, and we're taking steps to ensure that something this obvious doesn't happen again.

Many thanks to those who emailed us at support@eggheadgames.com. We had it fixed before the 1-star review appeared, but it takes a couple of days to get through the Apple release process.
1.3.1
June 14, 2016 The first of series of visual tweaks that will arrive every week or so. This week we're starting off with some small changes to better fit with the Apple design guidelines. The most noticeable is the small (i) symbol replacing the ">" we used to use. But there's also a "flash" on the scroll bar when the page loads, and the Guide screen comes up from the bottom and has a "Done" at the top right. Internally, there's some cleanup to better prepared for what's coming. Thanks!

Still reading? If you take a moment while you're here to give us a review, that *really* helps us out. Or email us support@eggheadgames.com - we love to hear from you.
1.3.0
June 9, 2016 The new PLAY! button allows you to quickly start the next puzzle, in whatever order you choose (e.g. easier first, or shuffle), or you can choose a specific category and puzzle. The completion page now has a photo and summary information about the quote author and a link to Wikipedia for more. Last but not least, you can track your progress with the new stats for number of puzzles solved, hints used and trophies earned.

As always, we respond promptly to email at support@eggheadgames.com and love to hear from you!
1.2.4
February 24, 2016 * fixes crashes triggered by some puzzles in the Family & Challenging volume. Sorry!
* improves the integrated support tool - tap to say hi!
* removes all the "Please rate this app" nagging.

We're going to see if you can leave a review without us nagging you. Please do! It makes a big difference to Apple's search results which in turn helps us continue to improve the app. (Next on our list: more puzzles!)
1.2.3
December 16, 2015 We fixed a problem with the app suddenly closing for some puzzles. Many apologies! Those responsible have been forced to listen to a loop of holiday muzak alternating with "It's a Small World". And, while we have your attention, our accountant would like us to point out that it's still an especially good time to purchase the Holidays volume. (Even though our Australian audience is confused by the snowflake symbol. You would think they'd have worked it out by now from the endless overseas movies and tv shows inflected on them by that northern hemisphere mob!)
1.2.2
November 30, 2015 New in this release is a cute little bouncing star when you finish a puzzle. Subliminal message: Buy the Holiday volume and solve them all. It will keep you away from the leftovers for a while! We also added external keyboard support for extra solving convenience.

Underneath the covers, this is our biggest update since we first created the app. We re-arranged things internally in preparation for some new features in the pipeline. This will save you some storage space and make the app even faster, but mostly paves the way for our next release. No, I'm not going to say what it includes, but if you contact us via support@eggheadgames.com you can apply to help test it. Or you can use the built-in Feedback feature we added last time.

Caveat: Because we changed a lot of things internally, despite our best efforts and extensive testing, something might break for you. Let me know if so: support@eggheadgames.com. We'll jump on it right away I promise. We obsess about our quality and our customer service, so I will respond and we will fix it promptly!
1.2.1
November 9, 2015 Happy Holidays! Well, almost anyway. It's definitely the beginning of what many call the silly season, though perhaps that is referring to the US Election. Oh, no, wait, that's another whole year away. Never mind.

Thanks for all the kind words about the re-design. It's heartening to put in so much effort and have it appreciated. If you could write a review with those same thoughts, that would be the icing on the cake! This update fixes a problem with "Restore Purchases" and a rare crash - so far the only glitches we found in that major update (knock on wood).

New in this release is Feedback. We take our support seriously so we're really excited about this. Unlike a "free" app, we can afford to pay people (based here in sunny but dry California) to answer your questions and fix any problems. Until now, the simplest way was to email us, but that can be frustrating if your device is not configured correctly. Now, if you have a problem, just tap the new Feedback link on the home screen and then send us a quick message. It's just like sending a text. We'll respond, usually within a few hours, and get things sorted out.

Of course, you can use Feedback to say nice things too, but reviews work even better for that! See the new Menu option "Review Cryptograms" to go right there. Thanks in advance. Your reviews are critical to app store success and will allow us to add exciting new features over the next couple of months.

Given the time of year, we're confident you'll enjoy the Holidays puzzle pack. This volume is particularly fun for beginning Cryptologists, as the category can be a huge clue to some of the words. Enough said, as we don't want to spoil it! And, of course, there's also the Political volume, containing masterful quotes from great politicians, just to remind us that it doesn't have to be silly after all.
1.2.0
October 22, 2015 Change is inevitable — except from a vending machine. — Robert C. Gallagher

Wow, wow & wow. There is just so much new in this release! Where to start? The summary: We've completely updated the design for iOS 8 and 9, added full split screen support for newer iPads, iPhone 6 Plus landscape, fixed a timing bug, and changed the icon. Now for what my daughter would call the "TL;DR" version...

As noted in our last release notes (essay!), we decided to update Cryptograms to the "latest greatest", as a precursor to some new features we're planning. This was not a decision made lightly. Change is hard. We know that. We hope that most of you will love the changes, but realize that some will be less sanguine. For them, we intentionally kept everything in pretty much the same place, but overall the design now reflects the minimalist "less is more" approach that was introduced with iOS 7. Later, we'll spruce it up a little as we also add new features. For those who like lists (you know who you are!), here are some of the highlights:

* changed the icon. Just look for CRYP (get it? Some wise guy suggested making it a cryptogram of cryptogram but we thought that would be too ... cryptic!)
* fixed a bug that was adding time to completed puzzles (aka "where did my badge go?")
* iPhone 6+ landscape and new split screen features of iOS 9 (for newer iPads)
* share quotes via any installed app that supports sharing (you know your Facebook friends want to see that quote!)
* updated some sounds (no more mechanical typewriter, no scary error beeps)
* made the keyboard match iOS's more closely (Del on the right, Undo on the left)
* many (many!) design updates including new icons for difficulty and expert solving times
* moved everything to iOS 8 and above - this is more or less required by Apple at this point as supporting old devices gets increasingly difficult

This was a "building foundations" release. Going forward, we have lots of ideas for new features! If you have some too, just drop us a line at support@eggheadgames.com or via our Facebook page. We love to hear from you!
1.1.04
October 6, 2015 These hand-picked, error-free quotes are great, right? So great that sometimes you want to share them? We thought so too, so we've improved that. Click "Tap here to Share" on the completion page and you can now choose to send the entire quote & author via email or that Twitter thing (should we add Facebook too?). Go on, share the joy!

This version also fixes a crash that our eggheads found in the logs (we like to fix things quickly). It also tidies up some niggling things, like the completion page layout, and a drawing glitch when starting to solve in landscape.

Mostly, this update reflects our renewed interest in Cryptograms.

Have you ever had a sibling or friend who seems to get all the attention? You were doing something equally great, but no-one noticed? This is how Cryptograms was at Egghead Games. It's a wonderful puzzle, great for idle moments, with lovingly hand-picked quotations, but it hasn't received much attention recently with Logic Puzzles & Acrostics hogging the limelight. After our recent iOS 9 updates, we've rediscovered what a great app this is and realize there are more improvements we can make to get it up to current standards and generally make it easier and more fun to use.

Keep an eye out as we gradually roll out these changes. And, if you're considering buying, go ahead! Now is a good time. This app is getting some love, and if you purchase now, you'll be along for the ride. And who wouldn't want to be along for a ride like that. Happy puzzling!

September 24, 2015 We feel bad. Somehow during all the iOS 9 hoopla, we missed that Cryptograms was having problems. Sure, it was happily playing along with iOS 5, 6, 7 and 8, but iOS 9 was sitting in the corner, feeling left out. So, this release fixes Cryptograms for iOS 9.

We'd also love to tell you that this update solves world peace, and that it explains why the toast always falls on the floor with the toppings facing down. But we'd be lying if we said that, and lying isn't nice.

All that aside, there are some wonderful, wonderful quotes to be found inside. The same wonderful quotes that have been there for a while, but I bet you don't remember them all. So, erase some quotes, solve them again. Maybe beat the expert time this time. And then put down the glowing screen, go outside and enjoy the day - just like we did after we welcomed iOS 9 back from the corner.
