game center broken in ios 9

Anyone else seeing this? I saw this during the beta but in the last beta it would actually load eventually. But now it doesn't do anything. Just sits on the white screen. It works perfectly fine on my iPad Mini 3, though.

iPhone 5s, iOS 9

Same problem here, I can not open game center, I got a blank screen. In settings menu I can not access to game center settings either, it freezes.

It worked fine on IOS 8.4.1.

I'm having the same problem with GameCenter on my iPhone 6 Plus. I get a blank white screen every time I try to load GameCenter. Because of this issue I cannot access DragonVale, other games seem to work fine so far. I even tried to access GameCenter through the settings and the screen basically freezes unable to load to the next "tab". I also just downloaded iOS 9 yesterday, with no beta before that.


Thanks to everyone for their input. Hopefully a patch or something will fix this issue soon so we can play our games and keep breeding dragons!

I have the GC Problem on my 6+, on my ipad4 is all ok... Probably this is caused by some other App installed.... Because i made a restore and choosed "configure as new iphone"...i have about 200 apps usually on my phone...


with only the default apps from apple the gamecenter worked perfectly..even with some games i installed later....back with a normal restore, it sometimes workes...after a minute or so

ahwm, do you make restore from icloud selective backup for your iPhone with same set of games like in your ipad?


ahw, How may friends do you have on iPhone and on ipad in Game Center?


So I haven't done the iCloud restore with the same games as on my iPad, but I did install all of my games on my iPhone on my iPad and it continued to work perfectly. Only 3-4 friends in Game Center.

Add me to the list of people with this problem. 


I also have the issue that someone else mentioned where it hangs when I try to delete any games. One workaround I've found for that side is to go into Settings/General/Storage & iCloud Usage/Manage Storage you can still delete the app from that list. But when you have 449 apps installed it can be tricky to find.

Similar problem. After 2 days of working around the problem it still will not work for very long. game Center will stay up for awhile for 1 game then boots me out. I am waiting for a new update. What I did is go to settings general, to the bottom of the list for reset. Make sur to turn wi if back on. Go to Game Center in settings and see if it will load. Usually blank just wait awhile, I go and make coffee. After it appears and looks ok. Go to Game Center app and wait for it to appear. I usually touch friends before I close it. Then dragonvale (I can play one game and only one game ) play game fast because settings will shut down on you.

I Went to apple support for 29.00. They will chat with me about this.


good luck!

Add me to the list as well. iPad Air 2, was not part of the beta, only used test center once for a game, game center not loading, tried logging in and out of Game Center on old iPad 2, did not help, and Star Wars Uprising seems to be GC dependant. Most other games are fine in my system but some I can't backup as I don't use Facebook and no GC to fall back on.

The problem is to do with your Apple ID account Within Game Center. Not sure exactly why yet working on that. To prove my point, wipe out your device using the reset feature, remember to backup to the cloud, login in using another Apple ID, from settings configure Game Center using your original Apple ID account! Load your Apps and it works fine


This proves your Game Center is fine, IOS 9 is fine it's the restore from ICloud has a problem so Apple fix it
