This app gives new players an overview of the game, relatively experienced players an opportunity to practice and advanced players an opportunity to test approaches and to have some fun. The developers are clearly committed to the delivery of a good product. Some bids and conventions could be updated

I used the free version for some time but the extra features in the pro version are well worth the money. I had a query about running saved games through another piece of software and the developer solved it the same day. Amazing support for the price.

Really well designed and thought out app. As a beginner to Bridge the help and tutorials were excellent. Looking forward to playing via bluetooth with my friends. It worked well on my Galaxy Ace and even better on my Samsung Galaxy Tab2.

Quit working for me, freezes up. When it worked I liked it. May try free version to see if it will work. Free version works fine. Have uninstalled and reinstalled pro and still freezes. Wasted my $$$ I guess.

Incredibly weak Bots. At def, gives away tricks at every opportunity. If the programmers pay ME $100, I'd consider playing a few more days. Rust In Pieces! !!

Enjoyed this so much in the free version that I bought the Pro. Really like the options and conventions selection. Well worth the small expenditure for a priceless app that teaches, supports, and gives hours of invaluable practice and entertainment. Latest version abounds with features and even a convention card. Have started using facility to download hands from local bridge club. Very impressed! !!

Enjoyed this so much in the free version that I bought the Pro. Really like the options and conventions selection. Have emailed developers with a query about selection of Blackwood, as the app isn't remembering it. Apart from that, well worth the small expenditure for a priceless app that teaches, supports, and gives hours of invaluable practice and entertainment.edit. heard back from developers within an hour and problem looked at and resolved. Very impressed! !!

Very impressive contract bridge game. Can't believe that at last there is an actual instructive and visually pleasing model. Can play SAYC at last! Brilliant addictive game.

Great fun. Wish we could add even more conventions...also just sometimes the play is not logical and more tricks can be won by following your own play and ignoring the hints.

Needs some work. Some cards do not remove from the board when play is done. Would like to see a version for rubber play and scoring, since that is what my wife and I play.

After trying several bridge apps on both Android and iOS I have to say this won hands down. In fact, I liked it so much I ditched my iPad (wasn't a big fan any way) and treat myself to a Samsung S2 just so I could play this on my phone or my tablet. Can't think of anything I don't like about it.
