This is far below what I had expected. The bids and defense are very poor. Sorry I bought this

This is a very poor app. There are no instructions or hints as to how to bid. The bidding screen is confusing and way too busy. Ive played this on a PC, and it is a far superior app. Its not worth $4.99.
It may be a good app for playing bridge, but it is of little use to someone trying to learn or improve. There is no way to check the logic behind bids, and all the help does for a bid is suggest one with no explanation of why. In fact, there is no help whatsoever on how to use the app. My 5 buck expense did teach me a lesson, to check out the next app better before I spend my money.
We are disappointed with this app and would not recommend it. North/South is hardly ever dealt a biddable hand while East/West receive game and slam hands.
My biggest complaint is that finesses for the north/south seem to never, or hardly ever, work. In a real Bridge game they will work at least 50% of the time.
I agree with all the comments about finesses rarely working for N/S and the bizarre bidding by north sometimes. Also, it seems to me that the same hands are dealt over and over. Paying for a little more expensive app is definitely worth it. The five bucks I spent on this was a waste!
Features reported here as missing (replay) are here on the 2nd row of the panel.
Played this app for years. I have used it for learning the game. Here is what is missing. A button with 2 ?? that when pressed explains why the game played the way it did. Especially to explain why it bid the way it did. There are times the game will add to my bid with some rediculus bid that is impossible to make. I would love to know what it was that caused it to bid this way. Another nice option would be for me to state, 3SPADES is the best bid, yet the app forced it to 5DIAMONS. What should I have done different that would have resulted in our having a 3SPADES bid.
Game hasnt been updated since 2012. Only uses a quarter of the screen on a 6+ , no way to make bigger. Difficult to press correct button.
Great app on iPad but on iPhone 6 plus the graphics cover only the upper left hand corner of the screen leaving about 2/3 to 3/4 of the screen a pale gray with black bands above and below. The game works, but is unnecessarily tiny and hard to see. With this display I would give only 1 or 2 stars.
This game may be an orphan because it has not been updated to display full-screen on an iPhone 6+.
Nice bridge app on an iPad or iPhone 5. I just upgraded to the iPhone 6 Plus. It only takes up the top left corner of the screen. This makes it to hard to see. Lets hope it gets fixed to take up the full iPhone 6+ screen.
The game shows up small - the same as on my on iPhone 4. I dont play the game on my phone because it is too small and difficult for clicking on the card I want to play. Please update the APP for the iPhone 6 Plus and then I will give it a 5 star rating
Need an update for the iPhone 6 plus!! It is way to small for the screen of this phone!!
Bridge is a game of statistics. you should get some chance to play. But this one only gives you hands to pass out!
Considering the complexity of computer bridge, this is a pretty good app. The bidding is very good, as is the play. It is possible that the program doesnt cheat by looking at all of the cards. Not enough bidding conventions and no help are the biggest downsides. Not recommended for iPhone 6+
Great brige game. Please create a way to replay your hand when you have not played it correctly. Also, the other reviews about the South bidding is spot on. But I think the North and South also need to have more biddable hands. When the North bids it needs to be more consistent with Contract Bridge rules. In a real bridge game, I would not play with North since it bids so outrageously. Please update! Update for iPhone 6s!
Zipping cards are hard to see. Cluttered board. Cards are hard to read. Busy and hectic. Bummer of an update.
New version Stinks! Cards are too small to see. You cant arrange your suits from L to R (high to low). Im not left-handed. It used to be a great game (not perfect -stupid computer partner). Then they decided to make it "better" and ruined it.
I dont like the new update. Its too busy. The cards are hard to read. The cards are so close together it is hard to keep track of the suits. Please go back to the old version.
