Incomplete Gaming

I can’t answer reporters. I can’t see the complete list of top 50 young players in the world. It’s all too bitty and in complete. Embarrassing, truly. Do better for the franchise.

Great game

This game is so fun. I had a lot of fun on 23 and I’m having just as much on 26. Just a request, can you please bring back some features from 23(planning friendly tours, planning multiple friendlies at once, the option to ask the board to expand stadium, stop having the best players in the world be 3.5-4 stars in the squad and the abilities to form a dream team club.) Please put these in and keep up the great work. Love the game!

Full of bugs

Has the potential to be a great game, but it is full of bugs. Saving games is extremely flaky, making me nervous each time if it has saved or not. Heaps of UI issues make the game often stuck and impossible to move on without force closing.

Crash crash crash can only do one game

Crashing again update needed

Great game

This game is so fun. I had a lot of fun on 23 and I’m having just as much on 26. Just a request, can you please bring back some features from 23(planning friendly tours, planning multiple friendlies at once, the option to ask the board to expand stadium, stop having the best players in the world be 3.5-4 stars in the squad and the click noise when you click something.) Please put these in and keep up the great work. Love the game!

This “game” should be called Crash football garbage

Piece of garbage.

Honest detailed opinion

The game has so much potential however it is unplayable on the iPhone
Game keeps crashing
Won’t let you sub certain players off
Randomly changing players positions
Unable to do press conferences
And the main menu tends to be awkward to use
I’ve played both this game and the standard Netflix version I feel like if the menus and hubs where a lot more simply like on the Netflix version added onto fm touch version and taking out the bugs this game would deffo be 5 star in the making I love the Netflix version however it does start to get restricted and boring after a while if you could combine the positives from both games that would be great

So many UI bugs!

Did anyone of the publisher played the game? I am not sure where to start but typing for search is a nightmare. There is no cursor where you can see if an input is actually in focus. Other inputs fields are not accepting anything typed in. Eg. Player DB search -> search by attributes -> Search by club, can’t insert a club name not a single letter…. This happens to all filters where I have free text search. Such a night mare. Global search works sometimes. but result are WTF…. looking for a player get results that are NOTHING related to the player. DO BETTER!

Hits post 37 times

I have played this game a lot and there are things I love but the snags, bugs and lack of immersion kill it. Give me fm21 touch with women’s football and I’m happy. Drop the match engine if needed. I can’t take another match where I hit the bar 12 times.

Still can’t get through a game

This just crashes all the time. The developers will hide behind the ui which isn’t bad really at all but things just don’t work and I can’t really play the game. I really hope they take accountability and next game needs to be much better

Good if it doesn’t crash mid game

Classic game that they’ve managed to get even more thoroughly detailed and challenging. This game was the only reason I was subscribed to Apple Arcade. After the game crashing during countless simulations, I’ve decided to cancel my subscription. Never had this issue with prior years, so I am not giving up on football manager, just giving up on playing FM on my iPad. Incredibly disappointing and endlessly annoying.

Terrible

This game is absolutely horrendous. Crashes every 5 minutes. Navigation is brutal. An experts guide on how to wreck a game.

Bug

I’m trying to activate the £200M increase function but only a message written “appolled” keeps appearing

Unresponsive UI Makes Hard to Enjoy

FM Touch on Apple Arcade is usually a good, solid title. However, an hour into 26 & it no longer seems to be the case. Whilst the UI update since 24 is more suited to Mobile & Tablet gaming, I find myself accidentally closing menus or not being able to scroll down. This by itself is enough to make me stop playing, as hard as it is to as there are not a lot of good alternatives on offer. Extremely disappointed with all platforms of this game this year.

I hate this game

It’s really confusing

Crashes all the time

Update 22/06/26 - game still useless and can’t play longer than 15 mins without a crash, no matter what settings you use. Awful & basically a robbery.

I’ve tried every fix going: cleared all cache, restarted iPad, deleted the game, loaded the smallest possible database, everything! Still can’t get through a game without crashing - utter rubbish after loving the game for years. Waste of 49.99 for Apple Arcade for the year - won’t be playing again

Good in Theory

Like everyone says, the 26 variant feels like a step back due to numerous technical issues, especially glitchy menus. As there is seemingly no way to report issues with the developer I must report here. Every time you are presented with the reporter question messages, no opinions come up as a response and the only option is just leaving the interview without saying anything. Seems like an easy issue to correct but it has been in the game since the release of this version. Otherwise still like the concept but seriously fixes are still needed even to get back to 24 level of enjoyment. On top of this issue, two fun features were eliminated, the career timeline and pre/post match animations. Both were nice little touches to increase realism, especially the latter. Seeing your team lift the trophy at the end of the season was one of the best moments in the game and now there’s just a message that says you won and it moves on. Are you kidding?

Crash crash crash

Crashing again

The game crashes when doing the tactic thing

Where the out of possession and in possession menu is the game crashes when u do certain things as ur changing it idk if it’s random or on specific things

Good effort but poor execution

Really interesting game with lots of realistic elements. However it’s impossible to navigate and there are lots of bugs and mistakes on certain pages. For example when in a meeting with board it blocks the conversation and puts the players face over it so you can’t communicate properly. It is also impossible to make subs and team selections and there is no function for loan recalls. Please can these be solved ASAP as this game has potential to be good
