Same here. No Gamecentre access at all, and every game I've tried falls over sooner or later. Seems to have been all the iOS 9 versions,as it was no better with 0.0 or 0.1.


As an aside, anyone else unhappy with the unwanted apps/icons foisted on us with iOS 9? Got some thing called 'find my iPhone' when I don't have an iPhone; can't delete the app either. Want to use Gamecentre and cannot, don't want 'find my iPhone' but I'm stuck with it.


More and more it's a case of users taking what Apple deign to give us, and learning to live without what they take away.

Same here. Freezes my game while playing. Sometimes unfreeze and just keeps playing within 20 seconds. sometime game centre kicks in and welcomes me. But I lose the raid in my game. But most times it disconnects me from the net and I have to reload. Really disappointing Apple. This is the worst yet. Big thumbs down. I'm considering android for the first time ever.

Has there been any movement on this issue? Any other tips?


GC has not worked at all on my iPhone 6 since installing iOS 9. I've done every single update, currently on 9.2, but no changes. It worked fine on my iPad Air from the beginning, and I've recently upgraded to an iPad Pro, and it works fine on it as well.


Seems like a glitch on Apple's side.

All,


i tried all the suggestions here and nothing worked until I tried something different today. I have 2 Apple IDs, due to being a long time Apple user and also subscribing to MobileMe, prior to icloud. What I decided to do today was use my 2nd Apple ID in Gamecenter instead of my primary one, attached to my main email. I logged in with it, and then created a new Gamecenter account. After completing account setup, I went back to my GC preferences inside Settings, then logged out, and logged back in with my primary, original email. Voila! Gamecenter returned back to normal 100% with all my old games loading properly, as they have bewn doing on my iPad.


if you've tried everything else, and nothing has worked, try this. Hopefully it will fix you issue like it did mine.
