I built this, the list started as a tutorial and then grew out of control. Especially when I started experimenting with mixing text and interactive elements. I think nonograms are underrated and relatively unknown, I hope this text changes it a little.
I link to my app[1] frequently, it's free right now, I hope this is fine. There's no Android version yet; for anyone who wants to try nonograms on an Android smartphone I recommend Simon Tatham's Puzzles[2] - like my app it is also free, has no ads, etc; nonograms there are called "pattern".
Feedback very welcome; thanks! If you use other nonogram solving techniques and want me to add them to the list please share too.
(if I were to nitpick, for large grids one might want to make the separating line a bit thicker every 5 blocks for faster counting, and repeat numbers at the bottom/right -- but at the size the examples are in neither are needed)
(BTW you didn't mention for overlapping but there's a nice trick: just try from either end, count how many cells are leftover, and take that off the starting side of each block)

Great work but…
In app purchase pop up quotes 0.0 for extra puzzles. My card got charged ~25 USD. I feel I was scammed.

How? If you look at the purchase history in your apple account it should show the actual price, and in mine it shows as free

Same. 'Unlock Image Puzzles' shows an amount of 0.

Since you mentioned Simon Tatham puzzles there's a js version here[1], but it really just isn't quite as good
