Common questions
My streak or stats disappeared.
Progress is stored only on your device, not in an account. Reinstalling the app, switching phones, or clearing app data will reset your streak and stats. There's currently no way to back them up or transfer them. This is on the roadmap.
I typed the right movie and it said I was wrong.
Guesses are checked with some tolerance for typos, missing "The"/"A" articles, and punctuation, so "Godfather" and "the godfather" both work. If a correct-seeming guess still isn't accepted, it's likely a genuine typo past that tolerance, or an alternate title Bad Plot doesn't recognize yet. Let us know which puzzle and what you typed, and we'll add it.
Is there a way to skip today's puzzle or see tomorrow's early?
No. One puzzle a day, same for everyone, is the whole point. There's no skip, no preview, no way to play ahead.
Does the daily puzzle cost anything?
No. The daily puzzle is free to play, with no ads and no account needed.
Still stuck?
