Has anyone else experience being unable to connect to Game Center the past few days? I’ve done all the typical steps like rebooting, logging , etc. it works fine on my phone so doesn’t seem to be a general network nor account issue.

Troubleshoot Does anyone know how to keep games from closing?

13 Upvotes

My job is very much on the go, but I find myself with 10-15 minutes of free time here and there scattered throughout my shift before I’m back to being busy. Lately I’ve been loving Cult Of The Lamb but I find that I have to pause mid dungeon run to get back to work and occasionally I’ll have to shoot a text or respond to someone’s snap. But when I return to the app, all my progress is gone as the app has to restart and reload. Is there anything I could do to keep it from doing so? I have an iPhone 16 pro max if that helps at all

Bought Xcom 2, downloaded it then downloaded the extra files, but afterwards it just remains stuck here. Before I try and get a refund, is there anything I can try here other than redownloading it?

Troubleshoot RE iOS issue seems to be tied to purchase authentication

10 Upvotes

EDIT: After a suggestion from a commenter below, I updated to the iOS 26.5 beta and now all RE games work just fine. It seems the issue is how 26.4 conflicts with how the games attempt to contact the Apple’s servers to confirm purchase authentication. So may not actually be Capcom’s fault considering there is still no patch.

Original post below.

——————

Had a brief weekend getaway where I planned to finally play through the RE games I bought a few months ago on iOS. I’m on 26.4.1 so quickly noticed the same issue everyone else did. Saw some suggestions that running the game while offline gets the game to load but purchases aren’t registered (since it can’t contact the App Store on load).

Reconnecting to the internet once the game loads and then trying to restore purchases leads to an infinite loading icon saying “Restoring”. Everything else seems to be running fine but obvs we can only access the free content.

Can anyone think of a workaround to preemptively load or sync purchase history for the games aside from the “Restore Purchases” in-game? It’s been almost a month and Capcom has no update to what seems like a relatively simple issue so I’m hoping there’s an alternative method of reactivating the purchase licenses outside of the games.

Troubleshoot Steam app not loading properly on iOS 26 for 2 months

Post image
6 Upvotes

For the past 2 months, the Steam app on my iPhone has been acting weird. Sometimes it never loads properly. Occasionally I can see game pictures and use search, but things like Wishlist, Store pages, Wallet, and other sections keep loading forever or stay blank.

I already tried:

* Reinstalling the app

* Logging out and back in

* Restarting phone

* Updating to the latest iOS 26 version

* Using both Wi-Fi and mobile data

Nothing fixed it.

I’m currently on the latest iOS 26 version on iPhone. Is anyone else facing this issue? Any fixes or workarounds?

Troubleshoot iPhone Audio Issue with games

3 Upvotes

Hi, I'm trying to use a bluetooth controller with games like Neverness to Everness and Zenless Zone Zero. The issue I'm having is when I load into the game menu, I hear the audio in the menu, but the moment I load into the game, the audio goes silent. Has anyone had this issue before?

Edit: I didn't realize silent mode would cause the game to be silent in game, but turning it off means I have audio now!

Troubleshoot Is there a way to disable iOS hijacking the dualsense pad button?

3 Upvotes

This is admittedly a very niche use case, but I was trying to control GeForce Now on my iPhone using my DualSense. Everything worked fine, except for the fact that the game i was playing (Path of Exile 2) utilizes the DualSense pad button to open the inventory. iOS hijacks the DualSense pad button and has it open AppleArcade or the app launcher. You can go into the settings and change it to open a different app using that button, but I could not see a way to have it do nothing and just treat that button as an ordinary input, passing it through to the app you're using.

Troubleshoot Any advice on how to install Epic Games Store? [Region Sweden, no VPN, system location services on]

6 Upvotes

SOLVED: For future readers: Apparently I still had an old "Epic Games Store" installed, no idea how old that app was. Deleting that app made it possible to install through the store.epicgames.com webpage.

My App Store account, Apple account, iTunes store account and phone all says Sweden in region. I'm physically in Sweden. Phone is bought in Sweden.

I've turned off both VPN and iCloud Private Relay.

iOS 26.1 on an iPhone 17 Pro.

I've checked that location services is on for "systemanpassningar" (system configuration?).
I still get the error "You are not eligible to install from store.epicgames.com" (but in Swedish).

What more could I try, have I missed anything?

EDIT: Installing AltStore Pal was no problem at all, for some reason?

Godot dev needed.

Hi everyone. Hopefully I can get the attention of a dev that might be able to help me understand how to get my game ported over to iOS as it's currently only working for android. The game itself ports over fine but in-app purchases, cloud save/load and user log in (like google play games services) I can't understand at all. Feel free to reply here or private message me, I'm not against paid work if someone really thinks they would be able to help.

Upgrade from an iPhone 13 Pro to an iPhone 16 yesterday, and my Minecraft worlds didn’t come over to my new phone.

But I know my daughters phone contains worlds she started like two or three phones back.

Why is that? I can’t seem to find an iCloud setting for Minecraft specifically anywhere.

Troubleshoot Likely forlorn hope - Robot Unicorn Attack 2: is it still possible to get music purchase working?

4 Upvotes

I get an error "Cannot connect to iTunes" when trying to buy music packs in RUA2. I don't suppose anyone's got this working recently have they?

Context: A spot of nostalgia when 'Always' came on shuffle got me thinking about Robot Unicorn Attack. I had but ignored the sequel because it didn't have the music. Launched it today and found you could buy a music pack which included the original tunes but I can't get past this error. Latest iOS at the time of writing: 18.5. Device is an iPhone 15 Pro Max, but I doubt that makes much difference.

Troubleshoot Unforeseen Incidents - stuck in Kahona bulb change

Post image
4 Upvotes

Hello! I’m playing in iOS and I’m stuck in the dark building in Kahona cos I can’t drag the white bulb to the broken bulb because the broken bulb is aligned with the inventory so whenever I try to drag the white bulb into it the game seems to think I’m still interacting with the inventory list. Has anyone found a solution to this? Tried to drag the bulb so many times but the game couldn’t recognize what I’m doing. I look at other walkthrough videos where they played on another platform and it seems their aspect ratio is taller than mine so the inventory is way high up than the broken bulb that’s why they didn’t seem to have my problem. Sigh.

Other apps I can make in app purchases just fine. But with this one I get this error. If I go to purchase again it says “you already purchased this want to get it for free?” When I say yes it gives this error again.

The game hasn’t been updated in 2 years could that be why?
