Bugs in latest Wordfeud version

March 27, 2012

The current Wordfeud version has some annoying bugs that affect users playing on the iPad. Tiles can be hard to pick up from the rack, and the game list may appear when a tile is picked up when the iPad is held in the portrait orientation. This is caused by some changes Apple made in iOS 5.1. It also causes Wordfeud to crash if attempting to remove finished games.

There’s also a memory leak that affects users playing on the iPhone. The game board may turn black after playing a while, in which case it’s necessary to restart Wordfeud.

We’ve submitted an update to Apple that fixes these problems, and expect it to be out either late this week or early next week.

The update also includes new high resolution graphics for the new iPad.

Update: Apple really came through on this one and did a very speedy review, so the update is now available in the App Store.

    I enjoy being able to play WordFeud from my iPad. However, there is one major problem resulting from the very sensitive surface of the iPad screen. Like others I repeatedly unintentionally activate the ‘Play’ and ‘Resign’ commands. This could easily be resolved by moving the line of available characters to the top away from the proximity of the command line. Thank you for considering this.

    Hello, when making a word that end another one, if there is a “DW” else where than at the crosscase between the 2 word, the score of the 2 words are count twice while only the word with the “DW” should be.

  6. It should follow the Danish newest dictionary, and there are so Many words which wordfeud won’t accept . That’ s really frustrating.

  7. Again i can not send invertations to my friends pfff i hope you can fixed it.
    Thanks.

      I have the same problem with Black Screen, followed by app crashing, after the mid-march iOS update. It happens on my iPad 2, not on my iPhone 4. When I remove&reinstall the WF-app, I can play it agan for a while: Sooner or later the same annoying state is reached :-/

    There are a lot of annoying glitches on WF now since IS10 . The ability to add friends appears to have completely gone as using that feature brings up the player and it momentarily lights but does not add the player . Also unless it’s something you’re doing my account periodically freezes from allowing random plays. This can last 1-2 days or more and as a paying member is not good enough as the ability to play is what we pay for !!
    Lastly please advise people why you take no notice of everyone’s requests to allow you to resign on another players turn with less than 72 hours notice this is a farce that allows the preditors and freaks to operate causing mayhem?
