Simple Sudoku: Daily Puzzles

About Simple Sudoku: Daily Puzzles

Simple Sudoku is a straightforward sudoku app for iPhone and iPad: a classic 9x9 grid, number buttons, a notes mode, undo, erase and a limited number of hints.

It is published by Taiwo Omisore, who also makes the trivia app Qwiz, and arrived on the App Store in 2025.

The twist is the daily challenge. Each day's puzzle has a global statistics page for that date, with a map showing which countries players solved from, a top three of countries by time, and a list of active countries with player counts and times. Your solve counts towards your country, so the daily works as a small international race. Streak rewards, achievements and personal statistics track your own progress.

You can also play at several difficulty levels outside the daily. It suits sudoku players who want a plain interface plus a reason to solve quickly each day.

How to play Simple Sudoku: Daily Puzzles

1. Open Simple Sudoku and start the daily challenge.
2. Tap an empty cell and choose a digit from the number row.
3. Make each row, column and 3x3 box contain 1 to 9 once each.

5. Finish the grid, then open the global statistics to see how your country ranks.

Tips

• Scan each digit in turn across the boxes before switching to notes.
• Hints are limited, so save them for the hardest step.
• Time counts towards your country's ranking, so play the daily when you can focus.
