is there a source for NY Times ones? I'm currently using https://downforacross.com/ which is pretty good on both mobile and desktop, but I'd like something that doesn't require constant internet connection, and this one freaks out when you're in spotty area and disconnect for a second.
Not that i know of, but you can use something like the crossword scraper extension them import it to the app.
If you find a source, please let me know!
The NYT puzzle doesn't even use the standardized .puz format that most other crosswords use. So most crossword apps wouldn't even be able to use the puzzle unless you scraped and converted it.
It's a shame, but I still pay and play, as it's a generally high quality puzzle, and I only really do one per day.
downforacross has them available for free, I was just looking for something more convenient. I've just found a script that scrapes the puzzles and converts them to .puz, so perhaps someone else out there is maintaining a downloadable collection somewhere.
edit: of course there's collection of the ones that NYT used to publish in that format https://tedd.it/r/DHExchange/comments/p1tzor/_/
