App continually resetting on iPhone after some idle time #104

Hello, I think this issue has been reported already in other posts, but just to repeat it: when you play a game on the iPhone, get interrupted somehow (not even going to another app or another website), and then turn on the iPhone again, the page resets, even though you were in the middle of the game. All the other Wordl apps I have never lose the current game, whatever you do, so it would be nice if a game remained active as long as it is not completely finished, no matter what...

Thanks for providing the app, by the way! Interesting that one can choose any length of words! Geert.

Thank you! I just encountered the same problem while playing through a browser. I began one, got interrupted and had to leave it, came back an hour or so later, and everything was gone. VERY ANNOYING! Please fix this. Thank you!

It just happened to me again after four guesses, but then had to leave it for less than an hour. Came back and it’s gone. I’m done with this site. That’s too frustrating to continue playing in these conditions.
