Version info (optional, but sometimes helpful)

  • Phone/tablet model: [e.g. Pixel 6]
  • Android version: [e.g. 12]
  • App version: Version 2024-03-29-2245-fd304c53

Additional context

You can reveal another square near the 1 by using logic similar to that which was used to reveal the 3.

Quite sure not. I solved the puzzle without guessing.

Starting point in your posted screenshot:
The '2' below the '4' on the left side of the opened block has exactly one additional mine around it. This mine is also shared with the '1' below the '2'. Ergo: The grid space diagonal to left/down to the '1' must be empty.

OMG, I am stupid, yes thank you, you are right
