What is Crosswords/CrossW-SMS?
Who should NOT install this app?
What are the advantages of playing via SMS instead of the internet?
- Uses less battery: SMS messages take less power to send and receive than network data.
- Better responsiveness: unless an app maintains a constant
connection to a server (which would make it a huge battery hog) it
will usually receive SMS messages more quickly than other types of
data. So you'll see a move right after your opponent makes it.
- Doesn't use your data plan (but per-message costs will kill you
if you don't have unlimited texting!)
What are the app's screens and what to they do?
