About this app

Sudoku Kensei is a powerful Sudoku game and teacher designed to help you understand and solve puzzles — not just fill in the boxes. SOLVE SMARTER WITH VISUAL FINDERS Turn on any finder and the board lights up with color-coded hints. Naked Singles, Hidden Singles, Box Exclusions, Naked Pairs, Triples, Quads, and more — each technique is highlighted so you can see the logic, not just the answer. Finders never solve for you; they show you where to look. ADVANCED FISH PATTERNS (PRO) Tackle the toughest grids with X-Wing, Swordfish, and Jellyfish finders. Each pattern is highlighted with color-coded cells and backgrounds. Select a digit on the keypad to isolate one fish at a time — perfect for studying and learning advanced technique. SCAN ANY PUZZLE Point your camera at a printed book, magazine, or on-screen puzzle, or scan from an existing photo or screen capture of a puzzle. Review recognized digits before solving, and correct any misreads with a tap. SMART CANDIDATE MANAGEMENT Show all pencil marks with one tap. Automatic candidate tracking eliminates impossible values as you solve. Pro users can convert naked singles one at a time or all at once with the built-in solvers. SAVE, EXPORT & SHARE Save in-progress games and pick up where you left off. Pro version includes ability to import and export any puzzle as a QR code to share with friends. MAKE IT YOURS Choose custom colors for your answers, scanned clues, candidates, and highlights. Adjust font sizes, pick cell-first or keypad-first entry, and configure display preferences to match how you like to work. FREE & PRO The free version includes 10 free puzzle scans, all basic finders through naked and hidden pairs, and candidate customization. Upgrade once to unlock: • Fishy pattern finders: X-Wing, Swordfish, Jellyfish • Advanced multiples: Triples, Quads, Quintets • Convert Next Singles and Convert All Singles solvers • Unlimited puzzle scans • Import/Export puzzles • Additional pro features (and more coming soon!)

Baseline captured. Growth appears after the crawler observes a changed rating count.

Momentum comes from crawler snapshots for the tracked storefront. “Viral growth signal” means unusually fast recent rating gains; it is an indicator, not download data.
