App is not Syncing

For some reason, the app is not syncing and continues to ‘clock’ or spin when attempting to open. I have deleted the app, re-add the app. Then the app will load, however, when trying to sync my gamer ID and pull in all my data, the app continues to ‘clock’ and never syncs and pulls in the data related to my gamer ID. Fun app, until this started happening. Please fix.

Stopped Working on iPad

The app was working fine for iPad up until 23 June 2026. Now it hangs indefinitely when opening the app. If I delete and reinstall the app, I’m able to play but cannot connect with Game Center to retrieve my progress. Attempting the connection with Game Center also hangs indefinitely, but worked prior to 23 June. Please address this.

Game Center ID stopped working

It was working well for a month but now it won’t let me use my Game Center ID. I push the allow button and it hangs forever. This just started happening June 23. Before today, I could allow use of my Game Center ID just fine. Please help.
