I made a video about iOS 9’s broken Game Center and you’ll never guess what happened next
I wrote that Game Center is broken, and that Apple told me it will “hopefully” be “resolved” “soon”, but the issues are tough to visualise for anyone who’s not experiencing them. At least, people on Twitter tell me so, and Twitter NEVER LIES.
So I dusted off my long-dormant and barely used YouTube account and made an amazing video, featuring:
- My finger
- An iPad Air 2
- Game Center white-screening
- Settings freezing on trying to access the Game Center section
- (The excellent) Dashy Crashy not being able to connect, and not showing friends in the racing
- Game Center white-screening a second time, in case you didn’t see it before
As for what I did next, you probably did guess: I wrote this blog post. So sorry about that misleading heading, but you know how it is online these days — people with SEO hats punch your face in unless you use TECHNIQUES to get people to visit your site. Just think yourself lucky they didn’t make me split this short post up into eleven separate pages. As a gallery.
Easy fix. Just sign out of GC and sign back in.
Which would be great if it was possible to access Game Center settings in any way, shape or form, but, as shown in the video, it isn’t for me.
Same issue here!!! Updated to the iOS 9.3 this morning. Tested the Game Center just now, was able to see the “me” tab for a few seconds. However, it crashed as soon as I clicked on “my friends” tab!!!!! I guess it’s like what you said before. Since most of the games are free, fixing the issue isn’t exactly top priority for them.
