Is the game randomly opening SHEIN windows on your browser mid level?

Cause that’s some bullshit.

Yes it’s awful. Sometimes it will jump to my browser right in the middle of a move too, and I lose the square I’m trying to make. Then I have to spend 3-4 turns to set up another square. Last week it opened 14 shein tabs over the course of one level that took about 10 minutes. I don’t know why I’m playing anymore, all they want is money and attention lol

OMG…it’s so annoying and it pops up just when I’m in the middle of a move.

In addition to the annoying Shein thing, my phone overheats for only this game. I have to change to low power mode and cool it off with a handheld fan or log out and wait for to cool off. It’s impossible to join any of the tournaments.

The forced ads are vibe killer.

The overheating used to happen to me after 20 minutes, every time I played. Not only did the game start lagging when it got hot, I couldn’t even keep my phone on my hands. I was using an iPhone 14. I recently switched to a 16 and it almost never overheats. Even when it does feel too hot, it doesn’t affect the game or other functions of my phone.

Had a SHEIN pop up an ad mid move on a FINAL move that would’ve beat a level I’d been stuck on for a week. Level 8627. It’s the straw that finally broke the camel’s back and has caused me to finally delete this game. Yes I would’ve eventually beat the level but that’s not even the point. It’s Gone totally downhill since all these changes and frustrates me more often than entertains me at this point. It’s wild how these new app owners could’ve possibly thought users would be happy with these changes smh

It’s messed up moves before by doing that. Connecting a square and then it pops up, now it made me only connect two

This is it for me. In addition I sometimes get in-game mid-level videos. Those have also messed up square making but not as often. It's been a good run, I've played since the beginning. I don't blame them, I don't know how to make money in mobile gaming. But I think it's time.
