Pick Solitaire.com if

You are looking for a solitaire app that is generally easy to play and has fewer reports of malicious ad behavior or critical game-breaking bugs, despite still having frequent ads and occasional performance issues .

Evidence note: Both apps have a high lifetime rating, but recent reviews are heavily skewed negative, primarily due to excessive ads and performance problems. The free-to-play nature of both apps contributes to the ad-related negativity, as non-paying users are more likely to encounter and complain about ads. Solitaire.com's slightly higher lifetime rating and fewer reports of 'malware-like' ad behavior give it a slight edge in recent sentiment.

  1. [R14] Solitaire· 5/5 · US Exclusive offers don’t work: I don’t know if I am the only player who experiences this, but it’s a bit frustrating when trying to get the exclusive offers. Watching about what feels like hundreds of ads and then not having them register that I’ve watched them so it makes getting these exclusive offers harder to get. I think there’s a bug that’s causing this and I really hope it gets fixed because
  2. [R15] Solitaire· 3/5 · US Issue with daily challenge: When I try to watch a video to play an old daily challenge it plays the video but doesn’t let me play the game.
  3. [R27] Solitaire· 3/5 · US Question: Daily challenges- why are there daily challenges to get Exclusive Offers when they are no longer available?
  4. [R48] Solitaire· 3/5 · GB Bloated, slow, with lots of ads: Latest update has a memory leak, the app slows to a crawl and phone overheats after a minute. I’ve had this app for a long time, I’m keeping it because I like having my historical stats.
  5. [R3] Solitaire· 3/5 · US Customer: It was amazing but I have one of those old button I’m home button iPhones and it keeps on saying to update it and no matter what I try I just can’t update it!
  6. [R12] Solitaire· 3/5 · US Teacher: I don’t love this last update. The cards move in a jerky manner and not smooth. They do move faster, but not smooth. They seem to stall sometimes. Just my opinion. Would like the older version back. 🤷‍♀️
  7. [R22] Solitaire· 1/5 · US I just want to play solitaire: How about allowing somebody to play a game WITHOUT demanding they update. I am not updating, I am uninstalling. Say bye bye to your ad revenue.
  8. [R23] Solitaire· 4/5 · US Pretty good but: So normally I don’t write reviews but this game is very good it’s enjoyable but with the newest update it keeps giving me the update button and I can’t play the game without updating and I already update so I just can’t play the game anymore and would really appreciate if that was fixed
  9. [R7] Solitaire· 1/5 · US Was great, now terrible: I just played my 17th game in a row that was not winnable. Usually every third or so I win. Something is not working correctly.
  10. [R10] Solitaire· 1/5 · US FREEZING: You need to update this or get rid of it. It keeps freezing!!!
  11. [R21] Solitaire· 3/5 · US Pulls up ad websites without clicking on the ad: I love the format of this game but it keeps flipping me over to ad websites on my browser without clicking on the ad. It sometimes happens three times during one solitaire game.
  12. [R33] Solitaire· 3/5 · US Crash With New Spider Solitaire pop-up: The title says it all. I’ve played this Solitaire game for years. This morning, when I opened to play, a pop-up to play their new Spider Solitaire game comes up. I clicked “Maybe Later,” and the game/app immediately crashes. This happened all day. Tonight I clicked the option to download the new game then went back to my game, and the ad popped up again, the
  13. [R4] Solitaire· 1/5 · US Awful: This app is absolute trash. Can barley play the game at all but DONT WORRY, ever single ad will work flawlessly. The game on the other hand not so much.
  14. [R8] Solitaire· 4/5 · US Is there no way to pay to remove ads?: Title basically. I like this particular solitaire app but the ads are frustrating. Usually most apps have an option to pay to remove ads. This does not.
  15. [R9] Solitaire· 3/5 · US Used to be my favorite: I have had this app downloaded for FOUR YEARS and was so in love with it! UNTIL ads started popping up on the top of the screen and i had to watch a 2 minute ad video inbetween every single game I played!!! A perfect ad-free game ruined!!!
  16. [R11] Solitaire· 4/5 · US Sound and Ads: This is my favorite app for solitaire but after the most recent update I had to give it only 4 stars because I turn the sound off in the game and it won’t let me keep the ads muted anymore. Now it makes me jump when the ads come on sometimes if my volume is up. Never been a problem before. I probably won’t play it as often now because of it. Negative reinforcement.
  17. [R6] Solitaire· 3/5 · US Good app but no tracking options: I’ve enjoyed this game until the recent cookies/tracking all or nothing requirement. Contrary to the offered option, there are no options in the game settings to choose cookies/tracking options. So as I will not “accept” the allow-the-developer-to-track-everything condition, I will be deleting this game.
  18. [R28] Solitaire· 1/5 · US Too much ads: Too much ads playing in this app. Force you to accept prioritised ads and tracking. Too much legal forms to accept during playing this game. If you don’t accept, game randomly close and won’t allow you play until you you keep pressing accept random legal documents for just a basic game.
  19. [R75] Solitaire.com 3/5 · US Great app but WAY too many ads: I’d love to pay to remove them but the app doesn’t support that. I’ll finish a game, have a pop up ad play, then after the ad ends I’ll click “New Game” and get another ad. Two ads within 30 seconds and one button press is insane. I appreciate that they keep the app free for us to use but I’d literally give my own money to have a more seamless app experience here. R
  20. [R24] Solitaire· 3/5 · US Ads on DND: I don’t like the ad sounds sitting after I put my phone on DND. This is not cool!!!
  21. [R49] Solitaire· 1/5 · US Interrupts Audiobooks: Ads are out of control! I can’t listen to music or audiobooks while playing because they constantly get muted, even when no ads are playing they still run in the background. Fix this please.
  22. [R55] Solitaire· 2/5 · US Kills my music when playing!: Keeps cutting off my iPhone music when I play this game. Years doing this. Needs to be fixed. I’m just gonna switch to a different solitaire app.
  23. [R39] Solitaire· 3/5 · US Slow: Ever since the newest update the game is extremely slow
  24. [R45] Solitaire· 3/5 · US KEEPS FREEZING: I LOVE THIS GAME BUT IT WILL NOT LOAD! IVE DELETED THE APP AND REDOWNLOADED IT AND STILL NOTHING!
  25. [R57] Solitaire· 3/5 · GB Keeps freezing when app opens: The app often freezes when you open it.
