*2022-03-06, version 1.25.80*

Could not connect to the server

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2021-02-28*

There is no support anywhere on the website and no information anywhere and doesn’t work at all. It needs an update to make it do something other than nothing.

### 1/5 — ...

*2020-11-01*

DOSENT EVEN DOWNLOAD

### 5/5 — Bu

*2020-07-18*

Gooood app

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2018-01-19*

I make games on my Game Salad account and I use this app to download them to my other devices. I’m just a beginner so this works really well . I have no issues with this app so far and it works great.👍

### 2/5 — Very buggy

*2017-10-12*

Image files become white squares after first launch. This problem was first mentioned in 2011– still no fix. Wifi link constantly disconnects and requires a hard app close to fix.

### 1/5 — Worthless

*2017-07-12*

I can't get the goddamn thing to work. I've contacted all the support, gone through everything I can find on the website, and still nothing works. Absolutely horrible.

### 3/5 — Issue When Loading Previews

*2016-11-08*

Worked great at first. My device keeps disconnecting when loading previews. Maybe an update is in order?
I'm running the Yosemite OS and the latest GameSalad version.

### 3/5 — Potentially very good

*2016-09-13, version 1.25.50*

Awful problems when rotating the app - this really needs fixing. Would be great to delete individual games from the list, not just all of them. Works well other than these two issues though.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.25.80 — 2017-10-10

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.

* Support for iOS 11
* Support for new web version of GameSalad
* Bug fixes and improvements

### 1.25.50 — 2016-05-04

Added support for the new GameSalad features i.e custom fonts.

Fixed the popup on the viewer when previewing a game with Game Center login etc so that it doesn't appear offscreen / uncloseable

General performance increases

Important:
We noticed that larger GameSalad projects won’t successfully load on the iOS Viewer. This is due to the devices closing the project since they think it’s an inactive app if it loads for more than 10 seconds. To work around this issue you can ad hoc test your game or manually install the iOS Viewer and run it through Xcode, as it will not close under those conditions.

### 1.24.42 — 2016-02-02

Fixed another issue with center of mass

Saving and loading boolean attributes works again

The random function works correctly again

General bug fixes and improvements

### 1.24.41 — 2016-01-19

Updated AdMob (7.6.0), RevMob (9.0.6), Chartboost (6.1.0) sdk's

Slight rework done on how the engine handles time (this should fix some of the timing/animation issues that have cropped up)

Some sweet load time / spawning optimizations as well
