My 2x food boost button will not work. No matter how many times I restart game. Since the new version came out it hasn't worked. I have 6 of 8 boosts available. When I push it it will take me to something else such as a habitat. It's not my phone. All other boosts work fine. Is there a limit to using this Boost? I.e. the timing of the food in the farms? Any one else have an issue? Really wanted to boost the food for the extra sweethearts but have not.been able to. So close to earning the dragon and community prizes :/

Edit (KP)



Yes it's a known bug...

There are 2 ways to get that 2x boost to activate...
1. If you have a farm that you haven't planted, the boost will activate here so you can boost first, plant after.

2. If all farms are working on crops, the boost can be activated by tapping a little outside the plant symbol. I think I was able to tap just below and maybe to left of the picture.

The problem is that the picture doesn't line up exactly with the button hidden under it for the boost. Why they haven't fixed it is yet another puzzle.

Happened to me aswell. Still happens. I just keep trying on other farms using different finger untill my patience runs out, L0L.
Good luck.

This is an open issue that storm 8 is investigating.

For some Android models, the icon doesn't align over the call to action that uses the boost.
A work-around that has worked for some players is to tap around/near the icon to activate the boost.

Yup i have an android galaxy s8. Sorry didnt see this until now. That is a scary bandaid/ work around. Sounds like an accidental gold spending opportunity to push around the button. But I will give it a try when I work up the courage. The event I wanted to use the boost for ended . I dont remember having this issue before the update though. But I dont know the last time I used the low level boost. Thanks for the info kooky

My God. Here is is over a year later, and this is still not resolved. I just got a new Android, and the 2x boost won't work for me on my farms. Mine is an LG something or other - brand new, just came out this year. A THNQ or something like that.

I dont use 2x too often so I may be wrong but I have had same trouble w tapping the 2x boost n nothing happening...that's if something is already planted and time is running.

But if memory is correct...if I try to boost first on an empty farm, then plant , the boost will work. Usually all the farms are running but once in a while I remember in time. This isnt a great answer but it may help some players.

Hello everybody! I play dragon story on android system! For a long time I can't use the 2x boost active on my farms. I press the button but does not take the command. Anybody has the same problem?
