Our Expert Score

84/100

Having a Bridge game endorsed by (or themed around) Omar Sharif is a mark of quality for any card enthusiast. This app delivers a sophisticated Bridge experience that doesn't feel 'dumbed down'. The bidding system is robust, and the AI partners actually follow standard conventions like SAYC fairly well.

What I appreciate most is the 'Tutorial' mode. Bridge is a daunting game, but the way this app explains the logic behind certain bids is very helpful for intermediate players looking to improve. The interface is elegant and old-school in a way that feels appropriate for the game of Bridge.

Great app

I really enjoy this app. Play it every day and have improved my game significantly over time. The interface is largely intuitive and easy to use. Very occasionally the computer players make bids that have me scratching my head, but that is rare. (Though I just played a hand where I bid 4NT and North responded with 5H, but had no aces!) One suggested improvement: the “Hint” button plays a card for you. Better to have it highlight the card so the player can decide for him/herself whether to play. (Also, the Tournament section requires tickets to play. The tickets are for sale, but the app constantly gives bonus tickets for free, so I’ve never had to buy tickets. Not a complaint! Just don’t understand why the bonus tickets are given. )

Best I’ve found

Update: Yay! Repeated requests for reviews of this app have been done away with in the latest update. Please update your app! 3/4/21 I’ve been playing with this app since it first came out. It’s the best it’s ever been in the current update. I generally play the tournaments and at times have not understood my partner’s bidding, leads or play. But I can’t specify which game or tournament. PLEASE stop asking me to review this app.

Tournament Games Statistics

I usually play 3-4 tournament games every day, and it seemed that most of them are played by the computer with N/S just having very few points and just playing defense, usually not successful. Decided to check results since March 1 for the games I played. According to my best guess concerning how many games might have had the 30 player maximum, only about 25% of the scores were positive numbers, so the hands are set up for E/W to win most of the bidding and have unusual hands when N/S bids. Players enjoy playing the hands more than generally unsuccessful defense, so it would be appreciated if the hands were more even. It would also be nice to know what the bid sheet looks like for North, because I often can not figure out why or why not a bid was made. I have not been able to figure out if North is just a really bad player or is he doing a convention I know nothing about. Even with this lack or trust and getting to the correct contacts, I still are close to 8000 points and have won my share of points, but it could be so much better. Thank you for looking into these two concerns.

Awful layout, no way to adjust display

Thu Sep 11 2025 Elle GG

Very sorry I impulsively purchased this app. The “cards” are huge on my phone so a long suit often breaks across two rows. Horrible to process. Suits display low to high left to right and can’t be changed, and I am used to the reverse. Once trump is set, the suits in your do not reflect this (with trump on the left), your hand just starts the same. Very clunky. And I haven’t found any bidding hints or analyses but I will keep checking. Rather than provide useful adjustments instead you can change the table pattern and the tablecloth! Ridiculous! Apparently Omar Sharif’s name has been dangled as bait to sell a rather poor bridge app. Very disappointing.

Good play but Need better “ROI”

The program plays the game pretty well. Would be nice to know what conventions it plays, as some bids don’t make sense unless “oh, that 2 heart bid (holding a singleton 2)” must have meant “transfer to spades”... oops! Also, would be nice to have better Return On Investment — as, for example, a tournament that has a “price” of 20 points in order to win 25, which means I drop 20 points if I lose but only gain 5 if I win.

Time tested

I have been playing this game by Omar Sharif for years and years. It is user-friendly. I am a much better bridge player now than I was before I started playing this game. The bidding is heart of winning and this program will help you be a better bidder.

Decent game, annoying bidding

Wed Dec 10 2025 MikeArk

Often computer partner does not respect settings. I set 5 card majors, program sometimes calls 4 cards anyways. Often too aggressive, bids its own 5 cards suit twice and thrice despite the fact opponents are bidding and I am passing. Annoying sounds that cannit be turned off in settings.

Disappointed

I used to use this app over 10 years ago. I liked it a lot. Then got Bridge Baron. Which was great but expensive. With my latest phone I went back to this and am not happy. I like to play a simple Goren style. All the convoluted conventions you use are too much. For example I want to set it to require me or my partner to have five trump to open. There are so many conventions the simple game is lost.
