Remove or at least turn off Game Center

Thank you scifoso! You're brilliant. Game Center is now defanged, thanks to your instructions. No more annoying pop-ups.

Thank you scifoso this worked for me too. Another irritation out of the way!

God love you. Thxs for simple instructions (gen, restrictions,gamectr, off)

on my iphone, just figured out, general, restrictions, game center, turn off. I did have to add a pass code , don't know if you will or not

If your device is running iOS5 or earlier this works, but if you have iOS6 (no one knows yet about iOSD7) then the ability to disable game center was removed with 6.

And once a person updates their device to iOS6 then they will need to use alternative methods of dealing with game center.

No, the solution does not work - iPad and iPhone - both running iOS6.x

What worked for me on the iPhone is to clear the email address in the gamecenter box, and put in a made up ID. Then click submit, then cancel. Disappeared for now. The 'three times' thing does not work. When using SongPop - gamecenter pops up every single time. So, adding the made up ID worked for me.

Better remove this in iOS7, Apple.

Now I use my iPhone for non-game only. I really hate the Game Centre. I play games on my android now. Problem solved.

To everyone who says, "Just sign in once and forget about it": As it runs, it attemptps to award me for achievements I don't give a **** about which causes my game to lag ridiculously. Even worse, it doesn't remember half of the achievements so I earn them over and over again. When I disable it from auto logging in, after about 4 times loading a game it forgets it was disabled and auto logs in anyway.

Even I am facing similar problems with my iPhone 4s. A lot of my games hang and dont work properly because of the welcome messages and log in attempts by game center. I would love to delete Game Center permanently if possible or else atleast deactivate it so that my other apps work well.

There is no way to uninstall it, there is no way to turn it off. In apple's world, gamecenter participation is mandatory, at least to the point of constant prompts to sign in.

The most users can do is tell Apple how they feel and see if they'll ever restore the ability to turn it off (pre iOS6 we used to be able to turn it off in the settings)

Hi... I'm using the game Asphalt 8 on my Iphone. It keeps the notification on in the game center.... play your turns...

can anyone help.

Hello..

It's simple:

If you don't want Game Center it's simple to disable it: just go to Settings > Game Center > click on AppleID and sign out.

Next time a game will prompt you to sign in just click Cancel. You will be prompted about three times then it's done.

It will understand you don't want Game Center.

The downside is that if you want to use GameCenter again in another game you must manually go to same Settings > Game Center and sign in again.

Also GameCenter features will most likely be disabled, and maybe you'll want them(goto Settings > Game Center and sign in back).

I hope there is nothing wrong in what I said, it worked for me(ios 7.1).

First piece of useful advise I've seen for a while. Turn it off.

Recently, my person email was leaked through the game center and I recieved abusive messages from other Clash of Clans players. This was something I wasn't aware could happen but apparently its quite easy. Apple will not respond or take the issue seriously and Supercell say the route of the problem lies with the game center.

Actually there are ways to remove Game Center.....or at least have it totally disabled, invisible, and unable to access, but by 3rd Party Enterprise management.

There are several corp deployment management options, like MobileIron (http://www.enterpriseios.com/mdm/MobileIron) that can "Prevent Game Center" from being available to the user.
