Pros and cons of Bridge Baron app for iPhone and iPad

Bridge Baron app good for

Great fun and good practice. Easy to use and very well constructed. Playing "on-line is quite challenging, spot on. Well done. I thoroughly recommend this App.

Despite some mistakes it remains the best bridge app. Cards should be bigger on iPhone to facilitate play.

I have only been learning to play Bridge (Forum D) for 6 years but using iBridge Baron on my iPad and or iPhone it looks as though I will have the opportunity to practice when on route or in the various waiting areas one has to occupy when visiting doctors, hospitals and the like. Reading textbooks etc. is sleep indusive! I am far too inexpierienced to comment on the quality or standard of bidding or play, suffice to say it is helping me during the learning phase. Nojo King

It gets confused sometimes, but its a game. Sometimes you have to think what its "thinking" ... but theres no better version out there. "Partners" leads are often frustrating, but thats true in real life as well ;-) Duplicate is great fun. Great for practice. Can only recommend it ... even though it never wins!

Have spent many happy hours playing. Great fun, and at the same time educational. Well worth buying. Although I must admit to being frustrated on occasion by annoying glitches in the software

Am extremely happy with this Version of Bridge Baron! Great improvement.

Some bad moments

The new version 3.2 is not better then the one before. The arrow in the middle is annoying. Still too slow. I have Bridge Baron on my PC and it is much faster and pleasant. Which I could go back to Version 2!!!

Used to love this app. Since update is much slower and more visually noisy. Not so fun anymore sadly. This was not an improvement. Hope they ll fix it soon

Really do not like the recent revision. The screen is too noisy and dont like the layout plus the Audrey Grant lesson is intrusive when I simply want to play a game. Another feature I miss is the continuous game when Load Game is selected, it begins a new game each time.

I bought app as someone wanting to learn to play bridge.There is a lesson button but lessons are not included. The lessons cost a lot more money. I only discovered this after I purchased the app

It used to work but since the last update, I cant see the cards. Useless.

Can not even get into game. Emailed App Store and asked for refund but they dont reply. Advise stick to free apps- waste of $
