My game freezes several times while playing but it doesnt shut down my device as yours did. I wonder if it's our connection or the game itself.

Is anyone else experiencing this?

My game shuts down several time after the update, but now it's working (I delete and install again the app) but when I cook or buy things, the game seems to be a little slower than before

I reinstalled twice, it got better after the 2nd installation but it's coming back. :( I'm waiting to see if other members are having this issue too. Thanks for your feedback.

Having this issue too, and game is laggier but that's to be expected with such a big update. Hoping they'll smooth it out soon.

I'm having this problem too. My game freezes and shuts off and goes really slowly the longer I play. I have deleted and reinstalled it as well and it hasn't helped.

I had issues this morning. (iPhone 6 plus). I force closed out all apps running in the background ( had 6 storm 8 games open) . I also deleted the valentine version from my phone.
No more freezing.

I deleted the valentine version when I got the update yesterday. But it didn't help.
The only thing that seems to help is to close every single app & browser running in the background. >.< And it only helps a bit. If I play for any length of time it starts to slow down and you see the bots hitching as they go along then it freezes. Very frustrating, especially since we can't play with the new shop on the valentine version. :(

Another thing is I keep seeing certain ingredients as unlocked when I know they're still locked for me since I haven't yet got to the level that unlocks them: brown sugar, raspberries and a chocolate thing.

Since the update I've had these problem as well. The game lags terribly (which never happened before) once in while so I have to close all apps and sometimes even restart my phone to fix the problem. I'm barely on level 21 and there higher level items that are unlocked... I can't buy them though :cool:

Try force closing out any applications you have running in the background. Also if you have the valentine version on you phone, force close it out.

Another issue that is happening besides the black screen upon opening it that freezes and when it freezes while loading is that it will freeze and crash when I am already in game.

bobbyrae
02-20-16, 01:50 PM
For pretty much all of today I have not been able to get into the game because the opening screen won't go anywhere. It just freezes and stays there until I force close it.

I'm still having this issue and reinstallation doesnt help with mine. Maybe you can try this and see if it helps with yours? It doesnt solve the issue but maybe it helps to improve things a little.

- restart device, modem and router if you are using wifi
- restart device, switch off/on carrier signal if you are using cellular

I'm also having problems with black screens, freezes, crashes. No connectivity problems with other apps. Only since the upgrade with the Secret Bakers Club thing.

Just a guess but it seems like the app problem that previously caused the problem with the "you're not connected to the Internet" error screen when there was no problem with the Internet connection is now instead freezing the game, locking up the whole device (and our whole networks/routers apparently, if 'restart your router' is a recommended troubleshooting step). I haven't had the frequent "you're not connected " errors since this update ... Instead everything just hangs.

I'm using version 1.5 for iOS and I just had my iPad restart while playing also. And another thing I noticed, my Christmas lights aren't twinkling anymore, and my Christmas tree has purple blocks instead of twinkling lights. (Yes it's way past December and I still have my Christmas tree out :p )
I'd post a pic, but it won't upload for me for some reason.

Like the title says..ever since the newest update at any point (2 minutes or 30 doesn't matter how long) when I am in the design tab the game will just crash and upon force closing and then at reentering all the changes (wallpaper, flooring, wall and floor decor) will be as it was before. It will also crash when I'm in the market and tabing between the stores :(

this regular version 1.5 is not smooth, it will not load after I don't leave the screen on and use another app. Then when I try to press the icon it will not load or it will do nothing. Then I have to clear all apps in background then it will show loading 1-99% (you know what I mean)

If I del this, as it say it will clear all game data, will it del my current lv and progress? Do I have to backup or anything?
thx

I'm having issues with the regular version. So I'm using the Cupcake v1.4.6 to do the current event.
P.S. I'm trying this at my own risk of using an older version.

02-25-16, 01:15 AM
everything was ok, then I downloaded Love & Cupcakes and played it for 2 weeks, last friday i have deleted Love & Cupcakes and opened the original version. i have noticed new content (Baker's Club Specials), BUT from the very beginning the game was freezing and when i was trying to cook something or buy it stops and shuts down. i'm playing from Russia, maybe the problem is with translated versions of the game???

There's no specific thing that we're doing, the game just freezes upon opening the app and then crashes or is frozen until you force close. It also freezes when you lock your screen while in bakery story and then turn your phone back on. I think the game is just overloaded with data.

02-25-16, 02:58 PM
My game sometimes doesn't even load. The loading screen comes on for a few, then crashes. When I try to open game again, it loads but I get no coins notification that I've earned so and so many coins while I was away.

I also get game freezing in the middle of playing. I have to force close. And open game again.

This freezing happens infrequently, maybe once a day. The not loading and crashing on opening happens very frequently, a few times a day. I've tried to put up with it, but it's getting to the point of being annoying

I play on an iPad mini, latest iOS

Same as above. Its quite frequent, probably a dozen times a day- generally every time I leave the app for any period of time, and return I have to force close.

You guys have got to fix your game! Omg. It's so glitchy!

It now randomly crashes. I can be buying stuff from the markets. Crash.
Place counters. Crash
Move tables chairs around. Crash
Cooking stuff. Crash
Using quick serves. Crash

On top of crashing, it also randomly freezes, with any kind of action.

This is the second time I re downloaded the game, hoping to fix all these problems. But nope.

Please fix the game. It's very glitchy. And the constant crashing, freezing...makes it annoying to play

Is this being worked on? The game is freezing up even more now. It takes me anywhere from 5-15 minutes just to open the game because I have to keep force closing and reopening the app every time it freezes. In addition, my game freezes much more frequently while I am playing it as well.

I get the same problem too. Sometimes I can go in and other times just stuck at loading screen. I find that I can get in better if I don't enter game by the OK on the online error message. I **** that message and click on the BS2 icon.

Not sure what else you can do except perhaps give the following a try and see if they help.

- disconnect connection settings
- restart modem, router and device
- suggestion by Kooky

I'm on iOS 9.2.1 on iPhone 6S

This game is currently completely unplayable. 4 out of 5 times it just hangs on opening at the loading screen, and I have to force close it. Once the game actually loads, it freezes completely and I have to force close, or the game just crashes and restarts itself. I have version 1.5 (upgraded a couple of days ago). Love & Cupcakes 1.4.6 never had these issues.

Not only have I been having this problem occasionally since the latest update, it's been getting worse with every time I log into the game. Today was the final straw. It crashed my ipad utterly and it's taken me 4 hours to do a full system restore. In the meantime I tried loading the game on my iPhone instead and have been having the same issues. So it's either the app itself or a bug that has crept into my bakery. I think it's the app.

I can hardly buy anything much less add to or serve from the stoves. I have lost so much progress it's unbelievable. I've lost keys earned during the secret squirrel challenge and I doubt I'll get those back. I'm so disappointed as I was really enjoying it. It was keeping me company while recuperating from surgery and now it looks as if I should have "wasted" my time on something that wouldn't have spat back at me.

This app has got some serious flaws. It is definitely too expensive to expand and the expansion parts shouldn't take up space in the pantry like it does, but please fix the crashes as the first priority.

I managed after a lot of persistence to get into the game and deleted the Japanese Macha and cream which took me below max capacity so I could play the cupcake version at least. It's a nuisance having to set stoves in cupcake mode then serve in the later version but at least it's working. I also couldn't delete items from the pantry in cupcake version so this was the only way I could get restarted.
