Yes
It might be a problem with your home screen.
I can recommend a custom home screen...
I use one on every device I own.
Ok I will see what I can do. But for one app that doesn't look like good solution
I was thinking the same thing. Without further information there's not a whole lot I can do.
Have you tried creating a custom shortcut. You know, dragging the icon from the app drawer to the main screen.
Oh I will try that
lawnchair launcher is a fantastic home screen
works on every device i've tested it on
@copper acorn i mean yeah, it's a bit extreme to fix just one app, but hey it's a really good home screen anyway
Same
Stuck again
Nova launcher has worked pretty well on my potato phone. I'll give that one a try. XD
Umm
Yeah welp at least I have an exuse not to go into Eden yet
Its happening again
Anyone else getting this
@quasi dragon This just happened to me
Yeah the server is down oop
ooop
It's happening again
I thought maybe something like that
that gave me a reminder to go to bed
man i need to make a mental note to save for traveling spirits before they show up
My friends are in eden when suddenly a server error pops
i kept forgetting to do this week's
It's back
@crystal mulch then you have one of the most powerful android devices currently available, and you'll be able to run almost all gamecube games and a good chunk of wii games
@fast hearth how can I get more info so I can play these emus? 🧐🤓
I want to go to eden but im afraid of server error when im inside
@fast hearth I rather like this launcher... It feels nice and clean.
I logged in now and still couldn't claim the heart what my friend gave me, and met with error
there is a server error
Yep
I use nova
I'm actually using the beta version of Nova
@crystal mulch well to legally play the games you have to dump them from your wii
https://wii.guide/cleanrip
i can't help you with piracy if you don't want to do that, though
Oh wow, cool!
Oof
you can also back up homescreen layouts and save them to your google account to be restored later
My phones are nowhere near ready for that
so i symlink my save files on my computer to OneDrive, and then use FolderSync on my phone to sync the OneDrive save folders to my phone storage
i tell the phone to update every day at 4 AM instead of instantaneously (like my laptop) in order to avoid conflicts if someone's using both of my devices at once
@fast hearth thanks for the link!
no problem 👌
if you've got any more questions hop in the dolphin emu discord sometime
i'm gonna head to bed
if you've never modded your wii before check out the homepage of that site
@karmic mesa the only obstacle i have left is figuring out how the heck rclone works so i can get my linux devices synced too 
Oof
Why hello there
i wish i can play Sky too
hopefully you can play soon, amsofast 
hello @whole beacon
welcome to the server 
feel free to ask any questions you have about sky on android!
you can also chat with the community about sky in #general-sky-discussion
by the way, this is a family friendly server, so it would be really appreciated if you could edit your nickname to something more appropriate 
Hello! I have a question: I'm currently considering getting a new mid-ranged phone and I wonder if it's compatible with Sky. Has anyone tried playing the game on a Samsung A71? It has a snapdragon processor (700 series) and lots of ram. On specs, it's 5 times better than my current phone (Xiaomi Mi A1), which runs the game relatively smoothly, BUT I heard that Samsung devices are not very good at playing Sky. 🤔
Where are you located?
Actually relevent
USA/China models use Snapdragon/Adreno processors. Well optimized for Vulkan/Sky.
Global model uses Exynos, less optimized

@tired flint
If it runs a snapdragon and the OS system is above 8.0 (Oreo) then it should work.
Thank you! ✨💖✨
As long as you make sure it snapdragon model, we've had that happen before, on this chat actually 
Ever consider LG, actually?

@tired flint Sorry for the late response, I play on a Samsung A70 (A71 is a newer model I believe) and it runs.. decently. Before patch 0.9.5 it ran quite well on boosted 30fps, now I have to use energy saving mode in the live version because of overheating and lag/lantecy.
||However, I am a beta tester and it runs much better, being able to play at boosted 30fps just like I used to before in live. I presume these improvements will be implemented to the live version soon.||
It's a pretty solid phone, sure was an improvement for me, though be aware of the overheating and general lag in Shipwreck. It isn't as bad as some other devices, but it is quite annoying.
I play on the Samsung Galaxy Note10+ phone an it gets sooo hot on 60pfs, am I the only one that has great phone but big heat issues?

@grim prism heating issues have been happening to many many devices, devs are working on it
Does your note have a model number with an F? (ex sm-n975f)
yes, what does that mean tho 😅
Exynos chip.
If you feel like going down the rabbit hole 
https://youtu.be/6CUSe8kgIE8
does anyone have a Xiaomi Pocophone F1? I want to know if there's a way to record both system sounds and mic. Because I am currently unable to do both.

@woeful jasper well... this is just sad to know tbh hahaha
I'm guessing seasonal candles get turned into normal candles at the end of the season?
yeah@unborn creek
1:1 conversion
Always good to double check 

anyone know how many traveling spirits on android :(((
Hello !!! I need some helps. My mobile phone is android 10 but it isn't compatible with this game 😭 Is have any kind of ways for me??? 😓
get a new phone 
Nice 💯
@fast hearth 6
wait
wrong link
Here's a list of the most powerful Android devices out there, updated monthly
@fast hearth i don't see my devices in there
hopeless 😭
500 people probably asked before me but android still can't access beta?
beta content goes in beta channels @limber jolt 
Guys, I have a question
1.8 GHz processor
4 GB RAM
Mali-G71 MP2
Is this device able to run sky?
!Readthepins
what'ss pinss preciouss?
Thank you
Will the controller support be improved?
@fast hearth no razer phone 😹?? Fake site?
@fast hearth what model
Just Razer phone
That phone is powerful 120hz
Why i don't see it
well that's definitely weird
they took my phone off a month or two ago too for some reason
Either way your phone is nowhere near the top of the charts
https://www.deviceranks.com/en/phone/antutu/13842/razer-phone-2
and this is the razer phone 2
although I might look into finding a better site since there's a few models missing
nothing too major though, the important stuff at the top is all there
Which time eden resets?
@fast hearth lol razer phone is bad software
Its costly bruh lmao
Yo yo uh if you bought a pass that you can give to your friend but don't use it up this season. Will it carry over to next season?
OnePlus have 120hz so
!edenreset
The Eye of Eden resets once per week.
Next reset is on Sunday June 21 at 00:00 PDT (In 6 days 14 hours 3 minutes 26 seconds)
thank you!

I using Sam sung j7, not Razer phone, just curious about it. My j7 is fine except battery is pregnant 😹
My friend with a Samsung a10e cannot download the game. Can the game just not be used on that device?
Google is weird sometimes 😂. Many weak phones have bad cpu, performance but still can download it and Some high-end devices are not qualify
You know, if your phone is not compatible with the app. Yoy can not find it on Google Play store
The game is only available from the official google play store. Do not recommend people to download from other sources.
When I tried sending him the play store link this is what came up.
Have you read the pins in this channel for troubleshooting? There is a lot of information in there that could be useful to you.
@lofty gazelle ^^
Tell him to wipe Google Play store & Google Play services 👍
@lofty gazelle - ask your friend to search for SKY on Google Store. If he can not see the app then his phone isn't compatible
He can find it. But when he clicks it it says it’s not compatible
That is very very weird, google never show you the app that you can't install
Im out 😹
If the game says it’s incompatible there’s no way to get around it
The info that’s pinned is only for if the game was compatible and you were already playing but due to a google play issue it was showing otherwise
Heyo, was wondering if the headphone feature will appear on android soon 👀
the pins of this channel talk about that a little!
Don't know if its just me, but me and my friend have been having a lot of glitching today and our games keep shutting down
there were server issues this morning so it's likely that the fault wasnt entirely in you @dry tree 
Ok, cause I have restated multiple times
How do you prevent sky from separating you when your playing with friends? I was helping my friend thru hidden forest because she's newbie, but every time we changed zones (ones with cutscenes) and loaded in suddenly we aren't in the same area, and I have to go Home and port to her
I've actually put in a request for them to fix that. There isn't really anything you can do. I call it server desynchronization.
@delicate glen if you’re holding hands you should go to the same server
Ye
If one of you watched the cutscene and the other doesn't, it separates you. I think it's easier to stay together if both of you watch the cutscene or both of you skip it
this is correct
Also, the higher up the friendship tree you are together, generally the better the algorithm knows to pair you
huh, really?
kinda weird that it's not just "put you in with at least one friend if you have friends in the current room"
Is it true that only Android version has the crashes when going through the wreak to battlefield?
I think so
Exiting shipwreck from any exit crashes a lot on Android
My IOS friends always get through
I have done it!!!
Time to sit back on the couch and enjoy!
XD
For anyone curious I am just mirroring my phone screen over Wi-Fi. And a PlayStation 3 controller connected via OTG cable.
The game keeps crashing lately. At first I thought it was because it was causing my phone to overheat which crashed the game, but lately it's been crashing even when it's cool. Sometimes it's crash every few minutes and it's really frustrating
This belongs in the beta channels and not here
@elfin turtle Are there specific areas that cause your game to crash? Ie: Forest / Wasteland? Or are the crashes happening in general irrespective of where you are, even in home space?
They haven't taken place in home space, but that's because I don't spend as long in there, but they've happened just about everywhere else from the isle to eden
Make sure to send in a bug report, it really helps them determine which devices are affected
Ok!
Scroll down and react to the flame
Yup
Hello, I'm not sure if this is the right channel to ask this but I've been having problems with the game on my new phone so I cleared data and uninstalled but when I'm downloading the required stuff for the game sometimes it gives me "download (area name) failed".
Is that bad or will it redownload?
Do you have enough space? Sky is much larger than it says it is
Area failed is usually unstable download connection or not enough space to download it
I do actually, I just got this phone yesterday :'^))
check your internet connection
Ohhh it's probably my connection
If you are on wifi try data l and vise versa
I see, thank you!!
I don't know why this is happening but I see it is a problem for others here, every time I leave the shipwreck in the wastelands up the pipes exit to the battlefield, my game goes blackscreen and crashes.
It's a known issue, they are working to resolve it
@cerulean token Basically all exits out of shipwreck are bugged at this time. Nothing to do but wait for a fix in future updates
Does anybody know what this is? The flower circle.. it appears sometimes.. maybe is nothing but I don't know
its an easter egg leftover from early versions of the game i believe
it doesn't do anything, it's just kinda neat
mhm! it's the mushroom fairy rings that appear for the last 10 minutes of every hour 
android was released on april 7th, 2020! 
can confirm ^
Yeap
i have proof too
Anybody facing a glitch where we are unable to see the chats?
I cant see what am self typing and what my friends typing🥺🥺
Device - POCOPHONE F1
Anybody facing a glitch where we are unable to see the chats?
I cant see what am self typing and what my friends typing🥺🥺
@noble pewter I think it's a glitch, I usually just restart my game and it'll work just fine
I think its cause my unstable Wi-Fi
Hmm
This happened me
What did ?
umm does anyone else have all 8 of the season candles spawning in valley?
Yes its a double season candle blob event @knotty kernel
Does this game have an official released soundtrack yet?
dont think so
Well, do you official guys now fixing the Google problem?
which google problem, @empty anchor ?
@tame owl
You guys said that you didn't change the compatible list
And why the hell this is happening
i'm sorry to hear that's happening, but we do not get to decide the compatible list, that's up to TGC
@tame owl yep and you are not official then why you @ me back
okay im sorry 👉 👈
TGC is working on bringing Sky to a wider range of devices
Does the game work on an a51
@short wasp
this is the minimum specs pinned on this channel
-Android 8.0 Oreo or higher
-ARM 64bit with Neon
-At least 1.5gb RAM
-OpenGLES 3.1 Extension Pack
-Vulkan Version 1.0.3 or higher
-Vulkan Level 0 or higher
-up to 3gb storage to download and install all levels
if the a51 meets these minimum specs, it should work
Can Android data be transferred to Apple?
Yes should be, as long as you use the same google account
But what's the reason why the Apple tablet can't be loaded when logging in?
I am in China.
Because china blocks Google
thank you very much.
Anytime!
anyone having slow frame rate today?
Why am I having a fire button at home?
@dire crescent Bit laggy yes. Nothing can be done about it though. Restarting and clearing your cache may help some.
@cinder horizon Hmm best to finish downloading Sky content then restart your app. It should go away then
thx
Np!
a question guys if I am already a tester to be a beta member in sky because I can not download the app in play store if I have tried that question since yesterday guys
@tribal agate beta questions best asked in #beta-discussion
Thanks guys
Np!
Hello, do you have any way to turn off the video recording mode of the game? It crippled my screen, I deleted the game and reloaded but it still didn't get that big white circle away TvT my phone is Xiaomi note 8
@wheat pollen if you hold the circle, it should show an x at the bottom center and you can put the circle there
Thank you very much! I will try
Anytime! Hope it works
Does the game not work with rooted phones or custom ROMs?
@subtle lion it does
anyone else playing sky on an android tablet and having significant lag issues at times? Also maybe its just me but it seems tablet doesnt have a 60fps mode 😬
depending on the specs of your device, 60fps may not be available
I play on an iPhone 6s and 60fps isn't an option
its a pretty new tablet so that shouldnt be an issue
"new" doesn't always cut it
idm not having the 60fps but a lot of the times it gets REALLY laggy
what are the specs
uh no clue, i just know its a samsung galaxy tab s5e 😬
smh, im a pleb
hopefully the overheating issue gets fixed soon cause my phone is fine it just overheats like crazy 😔
hello people!
i was wondering if anyone is playing on an android emulator
or is it even possible?
Using emulators is against the Sky TOS, @vagrant spire. Please don’t use or discuss emulators here.
Anyone pls help me? My friend lost access to his account, he uses Android he doesn’t have his user ID, his battey died while he was playing and when he turned on his phone and opened Sky he started with a new account suddenly... @modest nacelle @quartz kettle
You can contact TGC Support via the Support menu in-game. If you’re unable to access your game, you can contact Support by using the link below:

It's better if they can do so in game, wait time is about 6 days though due to backup
Thx @gritty basin 
Hi, can someone tell me how to fix downloading levels that are stuck? It's downloading it for me but it's stuck. Cus of this i can't play the next level :(
E.g prairie (50/50 mb)
:')
I've tried to fix it by following the instructions from support but it still doesn't fix it for me
And my phone's free storage is 2 gb
Levels that wont download are usually free space or internet connection. You could try on phone data or wifi
Now... hidden forest and dawn of isle have been downloaded while praire and valley of triumph haven't :'D
Whats is thisss
Oof that’s no fun, Phantom! Sometimes restarting your device or delete and reinstalling the app solves the download issue. Not always, but it’s worth a try if you’ve yet to 
What are the smartphone spec requirements for Android?
Pinned messages here, Idenshi ^^
You can read how to use your controller for sky here: https://thatgamecompany.helpshift.com/a/sky-children-of-the-light/?s=controls-navigation&f=can-i-use-a-controller-to-play-sky&l=en
Phantom: i see. Maybe some of the troubleshoot steps pinned here might help
Hello. Did you not support Xiami Redmi Note 7 now? 2 weeks ago i download game from google play and now game is not supported😟
This is kind of related to BETA, so let me know if i should ask in different channel... I'm about to get a Galaxy S20 right now, and I am unsure if BETA Sky app would transfer over to my new phone(My current phone is Galaxy S9). Does anyone know if the transfer of the apps would be done properly?
@upbeat urchin, that's a bug with google play, where it says your device is unsupported even though it should be supported. there's some troubleshooting steps to fix it in the pinned messages of this channel, hopefully they help
@topaz reef thank you wery much. I will try and see what happen 😉
Anyone know where blue light is
Valley of Triumph, Ice Rink
Thanks and the emote? I forgot bruh
@woeful fractal
there too, just above the mountain
Google play store and apple store and the only places to download the game from
As I said google play store and apple store are the only places to download the game from
Downloading from apk breaks tos

@mossy wind
I think you'll be fine. As long as you log into your Google account that is signed up for the beta, you'll be good.
Im a tester in other apps(and have been for a few years) and I got a new phone last year and everything transferred fine
Ok I don't think this should be here or no but
Is this a bug XD
Should I even be here
I mean look at that I'm standing on nothing
its an oob
oob ?
Out of bounds
I just found a hole that it wasn't letting me go up it but I just played with it until it got up and well now I'm on an really really big open field with nothing in it
@undone wigeon thank you
yeah, it's an out of bounds location. it's just something fun
Ohh Soo its not a bug or something XD wow
Oob areas are not high on the fix list. And they kind of encourage exploration and thinking outside of the box. Additionally they also don't hurt the game any.
Wow XD how cool
People enjoy doing oobs so i think tgc is leaving them for now
There are a lot of other things TGC is spending their time on. Like crashing.
Yeah true
Orrrrr making the 60fps on every device
and not just those flagship phones I mean man I wanna play on 60fps is that too much to ask
They restricted because their devices that would not perform very well.
It's not strictly the device model that is restricted. It's the GPU it has.
And a 60fps game will delete your battery on a phone
Especially if it's 3d rendering
That's true, sky or not.
60fps is demanding, not every phone can meet the standards needed for it
Also it makes phone cook egg
I use a fan to avoid overheating. :P
It's right about to start summer for me.
Southern hemisphere here 
Nice!
I play on an iPhone 6s and my phone can barely handle the graphics on the lowest setting without overheating, even when in a cool room and with a fan
the graphics are extremely taxing
Agreed, older phones suffer
I play on Samsung A70 and it lags a lot

60fps is demanding, not every phone can meet the standards needed for it
Bruh ik the device can't do it but hell not an idiot goes to the settings and go oh I'll put this to the highest graphics look the thing I wanna say is true it has it downs but man come-on like put another option there like besides the graphics another option where you can cap the fps or something I even got to the system game files but couldn't make it Soo it goes to 60fps cuz I didn't know the 60fps graphics option name and also yes it overheats and yes the battery drains but like this is a game people should know that there well be those problems
Also my device is adreno 509 it's hell playing the game but you know I still play it and having an option for 60fps would be amazing
keep this channel at it's topic ^^
It is
well, questions but alright
Wow
First the game gave you an error about unsupported XD
And second you had sling shot score of 800 wow
Lol
I've recently got a new device
Here's the video related to it
It has a whole barrage of problems.
Wow now that was a decent phone for playing sky XD
And the scores hell, those scores were amazing
The problems include. Screen burn. Overheating (even when not playing sky).
And a massive battery issue
I usually find myself playing sky on my A20. Despite really wanting to use my S7.
Well screen burn well I don't have any fix to that but for overheating
You can put the cpu clock at least little more down and gpu clock speed little down Soo it won't overheat and it won't drain much battery but you need root and for that you need unlocked bootloader sooo yeah
I know how to root but I'd rather not
I battle the overheating with a fan
Battery? I alternate between my devices.
I actually ended up soft breaking one of my tablets after rooting. I then had to reflash the operating system.
Generally rooting is a bad idea.
Some people actually wonder why Android doesn't come rooted.
Windows does
Haha tell me that I have root I have twrp to install custom ROMs and well I did many things to my phone I have an overclock kernel lol
Also does Samsung even gives a way to unlock bootloader
why do some send qr link over chat? mine is always censored. is it an ios thingy?
If you are close friends you can send it over chat
But it's blocked on public chat benches etc
I actually did not know that. The more you know!
When I rename my file to include spoiler for picture is it the same process as ios
@idle marlin does your device run faster after rooting
Well that's a hard question
oof
Well let me say this with root you can do many things tbh but you need to know what the hell you are doing lol you do something wrong your phone is doomed and but if you know what apps to use well yeah you can make your phone run faster
I'm using a sony phone they said I'll lose all feature including camera if I rooted it
Yes I wanted to delete some default apps from sony
Well look deleting some default apps from the system can make your phone got to a boot loop you know
You better leave it there
I did once and well it didn't turned out good
But sometimes it comes out good and nothing well be bad
True, I don't even how to do it to begin with lol
Anyone else have a problem loading through that one barrier in wasteland?
What barrier?
The 0.9.6 update finally fixed the performance issues for me (I.e. High end devices)
Oh yeah the update
@ivory kayak i think see means constellation gates
Can someone tell me the change log for June 15th update?
It's not up in the website
And I kinda curious for the update
There's no changelog for 15th june yet
Oh okok
They bumped the resolution down again;__;
Sorry @high turtle . they're probably tryin to spare the rest of us
😭
@fervent umbra ||next season stuff||
Ohhh
Arent greyed out for uncollected emotes though? Or is there a new bug in town 
the stance is from a past season, and the "nodding" emote is from enchantment
Why I can't report a bug on the bug Android page here ?
Ah. Thank ye! 
Thank u
Why does my shop only says restore your purchases.
Currency purchase is a support thing not an us thing (and not a android questions thing)

Ok thank you!
The dragon type masks...will those be next season?
Or two seasons away?
Sorry...wrong forum
@red heron you may delete your question if you feel you've posted in the wrong channel 
Generally speaking we wouldnt know confirmation of cosmetics for following seasons until they're announced
Excuse me, is the game having server issues right now? I'm stuck in the loading screen :((
my game's running fine, try checking your internet connection and restarting your phone 
Oh okay thanks, 🙏🙏
hope it works out!
@fast hearth Yes Sky is currently experiencing server issues. You can try restarting your game or waiting a while for it to subside.
Ohh okay thank you🙏🙏🙏
What does the Crash issue, does the new update fix. It only says various but it has a lot!. 😂
Does anyone have the problem on updating? the update size said it's 140mb on the play store and I have 2gb left on my phone but it asking for more space
@inland osprey You will need at least 3gb. Playstore updates have been finicky
Oml HHH ok thanks
Np!
Sooo... This is a thing
The discord went wrong
Oh, so everyone have been experiencing the server retry problem too?
Yes
Yes
Yes
Anyone got server problems?
I haven't farm candles yet and it's almost going to reset :"
Maybe they should add server maintenance scheduled
Does anyone feel the graphics sucks now , at the lowest settings
You mean the lowest one?@red pawn
@radiant vessel yeah as in the lowest battery saver one.
@high turtle its blurry at the edges ..
@red pawn yeah i noticed as well. They've been having overheating issues lately so that might be one of the reasons for lowering the graphics.
you can play fine in one bar though, its doable.
The visuals are probably for the best. The lowest graphics are undoubtedly going to be the worst quality. Lower-end devices will greatly benefit from this.
@radiant vessel my thoughts as well. Would 1 bar mean im back to before the patch? I'm on an s10.
I almost always play on one bar.
I play on no bar haha 
I personally don't like 20 FPS. Which is the FPS cap at no bar
1 bar's good.
Yeah
But for me
1 bar is too blurry
It wasn't before this patch
So I play at 3 bars
True, the edges aren't as defined as before
I also noticed that the battery drain has significantly reduced
For those of us running on the worst of phones. Blurry is completely forgivable if the game run smooth.
@karmic mesa True.
The only thing that bothers rn is the 60fps mode
It's still overheats
Which yeah it obviously will
I don't mind
TGC will have a serious hard time stopping the overheating.
I'm glad... Tho battery never really was an issue for me.
I only play at 30 fps so I also don't have problems with battery.
Yep
Same
The game used to soak up almost 65-70% percent battery in the first 3 maps
I couldn't play at 60fps even if I wanted to.
Android specs aren't as tough as ios so..
And the heat , oof
I have the strongest unsupported graphics.
Android specs aren't as tough as ios so..
@radiant vessel true that
My GPU is the adreno 530. The lowest 60fps compatible Snapdragon GPU is The adreno 540.
I actually have two phones compatible with the sky...
The Samsung Galaxy A20
And the Samsung Galaxy S7
If one dies I switch to the other
My only issue is that I hope that I can finish the forest before I have to switch to my A20... XD
Because my a20 is incredibly weak
Any y'all having connection problems? Even tho I have good internet
Me
I cannot log in qwq
Same😢
Hmm 🤔🤔
TGC is probably having some server issues
I log in earlier and it was just fine
Server issues began around the same time the new update was rolled out. Please be patient until it resolves.
I concur
Likely
Yeah
Now I'm kind of curious to see what the difference between the adreno 530 and the adreno 540
Thank god my phone uses adreno 540
Lol
@high turtle I see what you did there...
But sad to say it's -10... Because 530 was first.
😂
You'll definitely have a lot less bugs
Honestly if it doesn't hit your wallet too hard, go for it.
@karmic mesa I need almost one year more smh
The definitely looking forward to that at too
Which won't be coming anytime soon
The switch is supposed to be this summer
I've been checking the Nintendo store every single day since May
Woah
That's some dedication
Like I keep checking playstore for beta download link😂
I'm in the same boat
But I'm just following what everyone else says...
They keep saying Google is slow and eventually...
Yep be patient
It's been more than a week now :/ , nvm
So PC is possible?
Patience is the keyyyy
We're in the same boat
It's been about month
Just not yet
@radiant vessel There are plans but priorities are on Switch release for now
Yeah
Wow, I didn't know we had so many lurkers.
👀👀

Just got here lol
With sky server issues and goggle being slow ,they all be testing me huh

Lemme see if I can log in
Is it gonna be a cross server between switch and mobile phones?
No announcements have been made, but we can hope @fast hearth
There is one thing that I seriously hope... I hope that you do not require a Nintendo switch subscription in order to play online in sky.
But if they release the game in switch does it mean they have to pay it to buy the game?
@fast hearth I guess no
Thank god
It won't make sense haha
Haha yeah
I've actually done extensive research on the switch release specifically
OwO
If the game must be bought its is likely players will receive in-game compensation for the cost. But this is all speculation at this point.
Yeah like limited cape or something
The game won't cost to play
Beta capes are one-time awards. Never returning
On the off chance that it does it definitely won't be the beta cape
Or maybe the office cape
Switch cape😂
That's more likely
Lmao
It's got to be bright neon red
Ohh! I bet there's going to be some awesome Nintendo switch skins
Can you imagine having sky kids strapped to the back of your switch

Lol
Erm
Is sky still having server issues?
Yes @modest trellis
I can't login right now
Server. Issues. Pls be patient
Press F For Respect
Something strange happened to me with Google play and sky.
Don't worry this is not a complaint I did fix it.
But whenever I tryed to install the update. It would popup that menu that shows up whenever you don't have any space.
Except none of the apps were selected and it defaulted to ready. The only problem was the continue button was greyed out.
So I proceeded to delete a few apps that I did not need.
And when it uninstalled them the menu pop right back up like nothing changed except the apps were gone.
So I restarted my phone and try it again and it started to download.
And then it stopped at 3% and sat there.
I restarted it several times and it just sat there at 3% for like an hour.
E V E N T U A L L Y it downloaded the rest and installed the update.
But I'm still wondering what was going through my phone at that time...
Oh same @karmic mesa
i can update the game easily
Hey y'all's. Is it safe for us android peeps to update the hotfix?
I'm so wary of updating games since that fiasco of the 0.9.4 patch lmao
The update is, nice, there's nothing to be worried about here, no weird stuffs going on 
Aye thanks fire! Always glad to hear your input 
Can I ask something?
Of course
My friend is android user and I want to invite her to play sky game, but they said the device isn’t compatible with the version
What's their phone?
She used tablet
She use lenovo
If your friend's tablet is capable of running sky, then it won't show the incompatible message
Orr, there might be a bug in google, troubleshooting methods is in pinned messages
@sly wagon unrelated sorry but can I dm you?
Of course!
If your friend's tablet is capable of running sky, then it won't show the incompatible message
@sly wagon does it have anything to do with the version?
Nope, it has something to do with hardware
Ohh
Lol
Sky requires Android 8 or higher. And the developers have posted a barrage of hardware requirements!
ARM 64bit with Neon
At leas 1.5gb RAM
OpenGLES 3.1 Extension Pack
Vulkan Version 1.0.3 or higher
Vulkan Level 0 or higher
up to 3gb storage to download and install all levels
If you're unsure which version of opengl or vulkan your device supports, this app will tell you.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.realtechvr.glview
Hello, is Dual Apps allowed?
Only if your device supports it
Otherwise it is not against the terms of service
I can't really think of any practical reason why you would want to split your screen. The game's hard enough to run as it is.
Why's sky on playstore says the update is 68MB, but I have to download more than that? I mean the percentage is way pass 100% is this just my device or a common thing here?
It could be either really.
My guess is they force people to download all asset all over again despite the update size?
When I updated the game I only updated to 68 megabytes
Some devices have a long pause after reaching 100% before they actually start installing.
This does not mean that you're downloading at 100%.
Yea that could've been the case but it's more than a minute, and no way it takes that long
If you scroll up long enough you can find where my phone took up to an hour.
My data usage is up too tho
Before I got my new phone my old one would take forever to even start the download.
IDK, maybe you had some corrupted assets that it had to redownload.
I'ma take you at your word, but normally I don't think that's supposed to be the case.
This is from last patch update
How is the resolution after the update
Erm... My entire installation isn't that big
The resolution for the lowest setting got smaller@little anvil
Other than that it's about the same
Looking at the data used can be misleading
It will tell you how much data was used from every app downloaded and all the pictures and icons that it loaded in the time period that you have selected.
@DreamFyre#3037 what about the higher settings
I haven't had a chance to fully test it myself. But I'm sure it's similar to before.
I updated every app on my phone sky included.
And that is just today
@DreamFyre#3037 what phone do u use
A20 and S7
Also that is a sorry @
Unless you're intentionally nullifying it so that it doesn't ping
@little anvil
I only update sky that day
I have a question,if i turn on the quality to high.Will my phone overheating again or its normal?
It will likely overheat
Some players have been reporting that higer resolutions caused overheating even with the new update
Yep. Sadly I have to always play on lowest graphic setting. Once I adjust it higher I can notice the temp difference really quickly
@naive pollen makes sense. It's possible they nuke the graphics when on the lowest settings causse you probably turned it on to cool down your phone and extend battery life.
Which means not doing any of the cool reflection stuff
I think they only reduced the resolution, reflections still should be there. This game doesn't use ray tracing for reflections. They are hard coded
is it known that fungi in hidden forest occasionally launch you into space if you spend some time on them
yes, i think
aight
@quaint portal I personally haven't heard of that, do you have other app opened at the same time? Or try choosing the lower resolution? If crashes persist the only way I know is reinstalling
I've heard there has been server connection issues tho
so it might be that and you just have to wait it out
Off, I updated the game today and now I am stuck on the loading screen to enter the game and it keep spamming Error Communicating
Anyone had some problem and how to fix it? >.>
im also stuck at loading screen :\

@drifting current same with me, since reset till now i can't login. I have 100mb/s inet speed, but still can't login. So this is server issues from SKY, not from our connection
😦 my friends can login but just me cannot login, I am sad
@spice notch thanks for the info
Anyone had some problem and how to fix it? >.>
@drifting current Play sky in White House / Area 51
@drifting current I think it's the current ongoing connection issue for android, just have to wait it out or try reinstalling i guess
@mellow moth thanks i will wait it out tomorrow before resetto try the game again
Hello, is me again
Can I ask a question, does season pass cal only gift to one person per day? Because this morning iI still can gift it my friend, and tonight I can't gift it to my another friend

@wheat pollen same happened to me
My hands still sweat while playing on lowest setting on Snapdragon 845
You have to have been with friends with someone for at least 3 days before you can gift it! Could that be why? @wheat pollen
@wheat pollen whenever I try to offer friendship upgrades it always bugs for me and almost always cancels it, even though my friend accepted the offer. It might be that your friend need to accept the pass offer within the first 2 seconds, before it bugs out, or what chlo mentioned
Hello! I have question, is there way to get loading screen work normally... Until recent update it was working just fine but now it takes me 5-8 minutes each time to get back into game.
This happens when i open game first time or app crashed and i have to open it again.
I really wish this could be fixed since my game crashes many times during playing.
Btw not related to internet, I dont get "bad internet/ error"
Anybody else constantly getting yeeted from their group? Anytime my group enters a new area, I have been forcibly let go
So my friend is trying to get sky on auora store, a type of store for android, can that work or no?
How to get here
@fervent umbra i know how
I do OOB tutor
Ill need to check if my sky is working
I can do the first one now, the second one I need my friend
Cause that one needs piggyback
Its pretty easy oob tbh
The first one everyone knows, yeah
I’ll teach you
Ty
Just jump from last window of valleys end temple and fly on sky slope
Skies are bright and you fly in the cloud tunnel and you fall in the water
Yes
I can send code
:>
Ok
@fervent umbra is it okay to message privately the code?
Yes
Okie :>
it is preferred to dm the qr code as this is a server with nearly 95k people 
Ok
You ditched me in home
@dusty hemlock auora store is apk, only places to download is google play and apple store
@fervent umbra that would probably fit better in #screenshots-and-videos , unless you have a question about it 
@dusty hemlock auora store is apk, only places to download is google play and apple store
@gritty basin ok thank you!
What happened?
That's accepting an invite not sending
Click the qr, give them a nickname, confirm and then share
you have less than 3 active invites?
Sorry then I don't understand your question, since you said you can't send invites but your pic is of accepting invites
Also is your phone almost dead?
can you take a picture of your favorite friends constellation?
The orange suggest that battery saver is enabled.
Hi guys! I was able to play normally before the latest patch came out. So when I saw a new update telling me my phone isn't compatible, I thought of uninstalling and installing the game again and that might fix it. To my surprise, now I can't even install the game. Can someone help me or guide me through this?
There were steps that you could follow posted in the pinned messages.
Force close all applications
Pull down the notification bar on your Android device and hit the gear-shaped settings icon, or find “Settings” in the application tray.
Navigate to Apps, or App Manager.
Scroll down and find Google Play Store.
Tap Clear Cache and Clear Data.
Repeat steps for Google Play Games and Google Play Services
Power your device completely down (do not hit the Restart button)
BE SURE TO LINK YOUR SKY ACCOUNT TO GOOGLE TO SAVE YOUR PROGRESS
Launch Google Play Store and try reinstalling/updating Sky
If it still shows up incompatible, close the Google Play Store again and wait a little while before checking back.
There's a troubleshooting method in pinned messages
does anyone have issues with connecting to the game?
coz mine keep showing error communicating
Lol
thanks anyway @karmic mesa
why do i cant play sky with wifi?
it doesnt want to load whenever im using wifi, my connection is fine though
IDK I only use WIFi
For me wifi sometimes works better, like I kept getting a zone disconnect issue in wasteland (black screen, no audio, only thing visible is my candles and wingbuff) once I reloaded on wifi it loaded normally
me too usually, but idk its been like this since yesterday i cant use wifi to play, i dont wanna use data lol
Can you access other internet related apps while connected to Wi-Fi
not yet, i tried clearing the cache tho
Clearing the data is effectively reinstalling the game.
If your progress was saved locally it would be lost.
If it's connected to a Google account you won't even have to log back in. It will already know who you are.
i reinstalled the game just now and that error communicating keeps showing 
hmm
As unlikely as it sounds your router could be blocking the connection.
Reset network settings. It will delete mobile, wifi and Bluetooth profiles
ah now it suddenly work, tysm for your help anyway! @karmic mesa @delicate glen ill try to reset the network settings if it happens again T_T 


How tho
Anyone help
I cant collect stars
After eden I went on star run and there were some stars that appeared to he collected already
@reef onyx This is a known bug. Sorry to hear its affecting you. The only suggestion is to restart and clear your games cache. If it still persists, you may report a bug at #report-a-live-bug . Click the purple flame at the end to start your report.
Off was playing in middle with my friend, last night I cannot login at all on sky, but now when I can finally login the server keep spamming error communicating and the box nonstoply showing up and its getting irritating

@drifting current same problem with me 😫
Its so annoying since I had my game updated twice in a day, but it still so broken. My friend been asking where I am to do daily since yesterday and they all waited on me, I guess I had to tell them to go on without me cus this error so persiiiiisssteeeeeeent
@drifting current There may be regional server issues happening at the moment. The only thing you can do is wait for it to clear up on its own.
You may also send in a bug report so TGC knows to look into the frequency of server issues
I think its might be regional and android problem, my friend in same region playing fine on her iphone.
That may be the case. I've had server issues on my android at Eden's reset, and during the first 4 hours of the update launch too. It's working fine for me at the moment though.
I am kinda skeptish, but does bug report is actually helping? Cus I do know they have other priorities for other bug they gotta fix
It does. TGC will know to enquire with their technicians if the server issue persists.
But never seen them fix some of old bug like, how player keep stopping piggyback each other at entrance of every area, I think it was really old issue too
Yup that one is low priority, but big issues that prevent u from playing are prioritized over that :3
I am still skeptish cus all you can do is just wait it out, lmao
Imma just try again 2 hr before reset
Well think of it like this: they can only fix the problem if they know about it
the more people have the same problem, the sooner it gets fixed
I really at the point where bug like this so common that I really dont care anymore cus the team taking while to fix it, I will try to submit report but I really believe they wont fix it even until the daily reset though
the connection error sounds like a problem with your home wifi
+62 seem to be having that problem
Yep
A bug can't be fixed if the devs don't know about it, 
Anyone have a problem error to get in to sky ? I cant get in from the morning 😢 idk why
That seems to be an issue in some regions! Report it in #report-a-live-bug
My bro using same connection is not having problem in his game, he still can login on his ipad
I really hate that bug report bot, they need to at least make it 2 mins not one min. Idk why they gotta make the waiting time so short
Hi, I’m trying to switch account on my android but why is it when I sign out of the current acct there, tries to sign in a different account, it automatically signs in the former account? No option to use a different google account?
Using more than 1 account is against the tos
But there is a way to change your account
If it’s two devices that’s fine
The former account on the android was just a moth that was set up when I installed the game
Oh i understand now
Sorry I’m not familiar with android settings. Hope you get help!
aw why? 
Using certain spells causes me to suddenly switch servers from my friends
Plus game freezes suddenly
that's odd, maybe you can #report-a-live-bug as that would help towards fixing it? 
And....my phone has gotten worse with the overheating

I used a Fireworks spell in homespace...
It boots me from my friends and failed to execute the spell wasting it totally
Has this happen to anyone? Manta living?
And this when taking picture?
No lie krill is gone when left and return
And this when taking picture?
@fast hearth I've seen this one before, but with smaller quantities of pixels
Please report it in #bug-reports-android
Press the flame icon and follow skybruh directions
Alrighty I have a video of the krill being friendly
Has this happen to anyone? Manta living?
@fast hearth yes it happened to me a few times
The Krill sometimes doesn't eat it 
Has the black screen bug fixed yet? It's getting more annoying
Not yet, it's probably not an easy job to do
is their a route to efficiently farm all the candles the game has?

@distant idol hope this guide helps 
it's for the daily spirit whose memories you need to relive
dont forget that there is a channel #questions-and-help where it would be better to ask about these things 
@maiden python That is what I suspect to be an Emu, please delete that as they are against ToS
No it is not, allowed.
Playing sky on other than the supported platforms that is Android devices or Apple devices is against Sky ToS: https://thatgamecompany.helpshift.com/a/sky-children-of-the-light/?s=legal&f=eula-terms-of-service&l=ja)
please delete the image @maiden python
so many pings i feel bad 
It's not mine, I stole from my group
Also, please report your friend from the group as it is still, not allowed.
Thank you for your understanding! 
Hi, whenever I try to enter anywhere from shipwreck or when I try to enter battlefield from anywhere (shipwreck or graveyard) my screen becomes black/white and freezes and the after a minute or so, the game closes itself, is there a problem with my device or is this a bug, I have other friends too who experience the same thing
@storm dawn Hi! This is a bug.
It has been there since 2 updates🥺
TCG is working on fixing it in future updates. It's proven to be more challenging than initially thought for them. In the meantime all we can do is restart the game (and clearing sky's cache)
It's also a more common occurance for mid range to low end androids. Although ios have been experiencing it too
I see, thankyou so much @naive pollen 
if nothing seems to work, and you want to get into battlefield, asking a friend to go to the fortress (where the spirit is) and joining them usually works 
Np! 
Toggle your devices network connection off and on and reloading the app fresh also helps. I kept getting the black screen on wasteland and doing that helped
Thanks a lot guys
it seems my game got pixelated/blurred suddenly, no matter the graphics options I choose. I have a S11 plus, last android. Anyone with the same thing?
ali that was an issue even before the update
you can try waiting a bit, going home and returning, restarting the game etc
one of those is bound to work bhdfsjk
😫
you can #report-a-live-bug as well 
@rancid junco Hi. Yes, tis a bug. To fix this, take an in-game snapshot (bottom right camera icon). This should fix your issue in a flash! 📸
this is odd, the snapshot looks great and in high res, but the game still looks low-res
the in-game camera function sometimes looks better than the game
Probably because the game can afford many frames worth of time to render the snapshot
Achieving great graphics fidelity in a single frame is easier when compared to x frames per second
Hence TGC took the opportunity and made it so screenshots generally look better than gameplay
Can i join the beta 😢
@kind fjord the beta is currently closed. see #beta-faq for more information.
also, beta questions shouldn't be asked in regular channels 
SORRY I'm still New with discord
no worries! just make sure to read the #rules and double check the pins in the channels because they often contain more info about rules for the channels
I posted this in eden spoilers, but Wren suggested I might have more luck here. My Pixel 3 is having trouble processing eden. ||When I get to the red crystals, rocks, and climbing the pipes with the dragons, it lags registering my movements, often leading to me losing winged light||. I'm not going to blame it all on my phone since I know it's also a lack of skill on my part. I'm just wondering if anyone else experienced the same and have figured out a diz6
*fix
All you can really do is either lower your resolution from your device's built-in display settings or adjust the in-game graphics setting
Ok thank you I will try that!
No problem, hope it works out for you 
i havent seen another player for like 3 hours and i cant complete my cr. pls help :/
@inland scaffold #looking-for-group-live would be better
