Common questions

How does Ruse work?
Open the app and today's puzzle is already there — a single logic puzzle you solve by pure deduction. When you crack the key step, it clicks into place and the trick is revealed. There's one fresh puzzle a day, and it never repeats.
How is each puzzle made?
Every daily puzzle is composed on your iPhone. A built-in generator lays it out and an on-device check confirms it's solvable with exactly one answer before you ever see it. On devices with Apple Intelligence enabled, Ruse may add the day's theme and a flavor line using Apple's on-device FoundationModels — that runs on the phone too. Either way, nothing is sent to a cloud.
Is the puzzle always solvable?
Yes. No puzzle is ever shown unless an on-device check has proven it is solvable and has exactly one answer. If you ever feel stuck, the trick is always there to be found by deduction — and paid hints can nudge you without spoiling it.
I missed a day. Did I break a streak?
There is no streak to break. Ruse has no streaks, no counters, and no notifications nagging you back. Come back whenever you like — there's a fresh puzzle waiting.
What does a subscription unlock?
Today's puzzle is always free. Ruse Plus (weekly, annual, or a one-time lifetime unlock) adds the archive of every past puzzle, all theme packs, difficulty selection, and staged hints.
How do I restore my purchase?
Open Settings inside Ruse and tap "Restore Purchases." Because there is no account, restore is handled entirely by Apple via your Apple ID.
How do I cancel my subscription?
Go to Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions → Ruse → Cancel on your iPhone. Cancellation is handled by Apple; Ruse never asks you to cancel and respects it immediately.
Is my data private?
Yes. There is no account, no server, no analytics, and Ruse asks for no permissions at all. Everything stays on your iPhone. See the Privacy Policy.
