Thanks for a great app and at a great price. Love the ability to grab
todays puzzle from my newspaper! Sudoku grab has replaced all my other
(& more expensive) Sudoku versions.
Anyway to business. From the various posts etc I understand that the
problem with the reset button being too easy to hit is fixed in 1.3.
However I have the same problem with the 'Hints' button. I keep
hitting it instead of the '9'. I understand though that, unlike the
'reset' button, it probably does belong on the main screen. Perhaps
you could change it so that you need to hold it for a short period to
activate, rather than just touching it. Alternatively perhaps you
could add a menu option to disable it.
My other suggestion, which I would personally find useful, is allowing
copying of cells with pencil notes in them to other cells (perhaps
this should wait for Apple's 'copy & paste' function). The reason I
would like this is that when I work a puzzle, I enter all the missing
numbers in a row in each empty cell on the row, then eliminate the
numbers from each of these cells that don't fit with the rest of the
puzzle. This feature would save me from repeating a load of typing. I
will understand if I'm a bit weird in the way I work and it's not
worth doing because nobody else would find this useful, but perhaps
enough people would use this type of feature to make it worth coding.
I would see it working similar to your 'sticky' numbers i.e. hold it
for a bit to activate and then touch another cell to copy it there.
Once again thanks for a version of Sudoku with such great (and unique)
features.
