Hi there! I understand how disruptive it can be when Word Stacks keeps opening the "local server." Let's work together to resolve this.
Could you let me know a bit more about what happens when this issue occurs? For example, does it happen at a specific point in the game, or does it occur as soon as you open the app? Also, have you tried any troubleshooting steps so far?
Once I have more details, I can provide step-by-step guidance to help you out!
This issue occurs randomly. Sometimes only a few times during play, sometimes as soon as I return to the game, it goes back to the web browser looking to connect to local server
Thank you for sharing those details! It sounds like a challenging situation with the game consistently redirecting to the browser. From what I understand, this is a known issue that can happen with certain versions of Word Stacks, where it might open the browser unexpectedly. Here are a few steps you can take to help manage this:
1. Check for App Updates: Make sure that you have the latest version of Word Stacks. Updates often include bug fixes that can improve performance and resolve issues.
- Open the App Store on your iPhone. - Tap on your profile icon in the upper right. - Scroll down to check if Word Stacks has any pending updates.
2. Clear App Cache: Unfortunately, iOS doesn't allow direct cache clearing like some other systems, but you can try to reset the app by forcing it to close.
- Double-tap the Home button or swipe up from the bottom of the screen (if you have no Home button) to see the app switcher. - Find Word Stacks, and swipe up to close it. - Reopen the app and see if that resolves the issue.
3. Check Network Settings: Sometimes, network issues can cause games to misbehave. You might want to toggle your Wi-Fi off and back on:
- Go to Settings > Wi-Fi. - Toggle the switch to turn it off, wait a few seconds, and turn it back on.
4. Reinstall the App (if the issue persists): If none of the above steps work, you might consider uninstalling and then reinstalling Word Stacks:
- Press and hold the app icon until it wiggles, then tap the 'Remove App' option. - Reinstall the app from the App Store.
If these steps don’t resolve the issue, you may want to contact Word Stacks support directly, as they are actively working on similar issues reported by users. You can reach them at [email protected].
