Unlink Game Center account from a Game.

How can I unlink my Game Center account from a game?

I signed in a game with my Game Center account. Now, it automatically connects to the account when I reinstall the app. How can I revoke the account grant to the game?

Note 1: that I am not talking about the Game Data stored in iCloud, as there is none. It is about revoking the sign-in with Game Center.

Note 2: I am not talking about signing out of the game, but to remove the link between my account to the game.

On the account page of Apple, we can do that for Apple ID sign-ins but not Game Center.

Hi Chipsette,

If you're already signed out you can try closing and reopening the game. A helpful step may also be to complete a normal restart of your iPhone. The articles below can assist.

However, how third-party apps use Game Center is dependent on the app developer. You can contact the app developer directly to see if there's an internal game setting that allows you to turn off or revoke a previously granted sign-in or ask. The article here has steps on how to contact the app developer: How to contact an app developer - Apple Support

Cheers.

Hey Chipsette,

Since Game Center data is now stored in iCloud, you may be able to remove the link there. To do that tap Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Manage Account Storage. From here, do you see the game listed? If so, tap it once then choose "Delete Data...": Use Game Center to play with friends - Apple Support

Let us know how it goes.

Take care!

Hello, thank you for the reply.

No, as said in the initial post, the game doesn't have any data on iCloud. The game uses a login backend with their own server to store the data. What I want is to revoke the grant that allows them to link my device to my Game Center account. As it is possible to do with Apple ID with Apple Sign-In when removing the link in the Apple account settings.
