Game Center not updating.

I am having issues with Game Center, its not keeping up to date with my achievements.

For example I have Jenga and have gained 15 achievements where as game center tells me I only have six. Also I have Tap Tap revenge 4, game center says that I have no achievements and actually I have nine. I think that some of the others may also be missing achievements.

How do I fix this?
I have tried switching my phone off and on and logging out and back into game center, with no luck. All my apps are up to date and I have the lastest software update.

iPhone 4

October 2017 - i'm having this problem. I was number 48 in the world for a game with hundreds of thousands of players. I would still be up there but after a week of not updating my wins I have slipped down to 56.


Pretty much a first world problem, but come on Apple!

I have been having the same problem for a while now. at first it was just one game that would not update achievements. then I noticed other games not updating, or adding a few achievment's but not all that was earned. I have tried a few things and some have worked and some did not. for anyone still looking at this, I figured I will share my findings.


Restarting my idevice (4th gen 6.1.5). Nothing happened


sing in and sing out. nothing happened


Swipe the game having the problem, removing it from the game center list, while clicking cancel to not uninstall the game.(making sure the game isn't open in the background). this might work, and for me it is not a permanent fix. it would work for one launch of the game, and/or just update some achievment's.


what I just tried was a combination of the two. I made sure that none of the games(any) were opened, and closed any that was. opened game center. removed one that I knew that had a problem updating. after I restarted my ipod (regular close from lock button) after booting idevice I open game center I singed out ( could try at first attempt to make sure the game was removed) and rebooted. then I re-signed in. the game was there with 0 achievements but still had my old ones. opened the game and started playing. mid game I was asked to sing into my gc and I was able to unlock achievment's in other games as well. I did this for pocket mine. let me know if this works for. and I don't know how reliable this is.
