Puzzle Workshop · Family support

A helping hand.

Puzzle Workshop is a calm maths puzzle app for iPhone and iPad. It is currently being prepared for its first App Store release.

Moving tiles

Tap a tile, then tap an empty space. You can also touch and hold a tile to drag it. Move a tile back to the tray to try a different idea. Pinned tiles stay in place.

Finding a hint

Choose “A little hint” for a nudge. Ask again for more specific help. “Undo” takes back your latest move, and “Start again” resets only the current puzzle.

Separate progress for each child

Open the parent area to add up to six inventors using nicknames. Switch inventors in “Your workshop”. Their puzzles and inventions are saved separately on the device. There is no online account or automatic progress sync between devices.

Sound and music

Use the speaker button on the puzzle screen to adjust music volume or switch music and effects off separately. The app respects your device’s silent mode.

Purchases and restoring access

Nine starter puzzles are free. Purchase options, when available, are in the parent area. Use “Restore purchases” there while signed in to the same Apple Account used to buy the collection. Restoring a purchase restores access to content, not puzzle progress from another device.

If you have a subscription, manage or cancel it through your Apple Account’s subscriptions settings. Deleting the app does not cancel a subscription.

Still need help?
