Pros and cons of Doctor Who: Say What You See app for iPhone and iPad

Doctor Who: Say What You See app good for

I just loved it!! A bit hard though when youve only watched the episodes from the 9th doctor to the most recent ones
Really good app, but doesnt work on iOS 8.4. Très bonne app, vraiment, mais ne marche pas sur iOS 8.4.
Im really enjoying this now if only it would stop freezing....
Love this game. Its lots of fun! Only issue thus far, is that my LAST clue-picture isnt highlighting or shown on the junkyard painting. So, Ive only been able to complete it up to 49/50. :( (the power of three #22)
I love it. It has all the things i love puzzles and doctor who
It is a good puzzle, but some of the puzzles are so obscure, and I had to use the help and just type the given answers on all the left over pictures, then when I get one right my first thought is... WHAT? That picture was supposed to mean that title? No way. But the is enough witty and fun puzzles to keep it fun and accessible to keep me playing so far.

Some bad moments

I just paid $2.99 for an app that crashes before it opens. I restarted the phone: nope. I deleted & reloaded the app: nope. Looks like the app support link is dead too...
Please FIX the game!!! It has a glitch. I just bought the game and I cant even play what I paid for because as soon as I tap on the icon the screen enters the game but then goes back to the home screen.
On my iPad, which runs the newest iOS, I see nothing at all of this app! It asks for permission to send messages, and then ... It disappears.
It’s a beautiful rendition of the „say what you see“ game with Doctor Who as its theme. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work on newer iOS versions. I’m using iOS 8.4 and the game cannot open.
Finished the two games - when will others open up??? All it says is coming soon.
Asks $3 for what would be a freebie game for PCs and then has the gall to add in micro transactions. Zero value unless you are buying this for a very bored child - who probably doesnt know the titles to Doctor Who episodes anyway.
