Common Clash Royale Problems & How to Fix Them

Can't Update or Play Clash Royale

Can't Update or Play Clash Royale

The biggest Clash Royale problem we're seeing lately is the game no longer works on some Android or Apple smartphones or tablets. This is a known issue, with NO fix. 

If you tried to update Clash Royale and now you can't play the game, you're not alone. Supercell confirmed that certain Android and iOS versions will no longer be supported. If you just returned to the game after a long break and can't install it, now you know why. Older devices are no longer supported. This change happened back in 2018 and I'm assuming by now that you upgraded to a new phone.

Basically, if you have an Android phone or tablet running Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich or older, you can't play Clash Royale anymore. And, if you have an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch on iOS 8, you can't play Clash Royale either. The company suggests updating to newer software or buying a new phone. We also recommend you get with the times, it is 2020 after all, and get a new phone like the Galaxy S20

This is out of Supercell's control. If your phone or tablet is too old, the game and operating system simply can't support newer games. You're out of luck. 

And if you don't see the update in the app store, just swipe down from the top of the screen on iPhone or Android to refresh the app store.

    When I move to the torunaments tab, the game stops ten exits. The challenge was stopped at three losses, and I have been unable to do touchdown.

    On both iOS AND Android the game likes to just minimize at random during a match, especially 2v2 matches, and the longer the game and device have been running the more likely it happens. Usually every 2 games, sometimes on the very first (had it crash after a factory reset with literally nothing else running except system processes, over a gig free of memory and half a gig free of GPU according to the on screen stats I tested it with). It doesn’t crash entirely because it’s still there in the open application screen, and I can tap it again to load back into a match if I’m quick enough. My android is just a year old tablet, my phone is an older iphone, both have no problems loading or launching the game, it’s crashing in the middle of matches (with in addition to lag is kind of a big problem with a PVP ONLY GAME).

    My assumption would be a platform independent memory leak within their application itself, and when encountering more objects on the screen causes it to happen that much sooner (hence 2v2 being more of a problem than 1v1). But of course as a money grabbing company they don’t even have a customer support number or email available anywhere, and they ignore you on social media, so it’s doubtful they’ll ever fix anything unless it causes them to lose money.

    Whenever I try to enter the help center in settings the game crashes. This is extremely inconvenient because I have lost an account and I cannot retrieve it since this keeps happening.

    Your wifi drop solution is not feasible. If I follow your solution it would take a long time to restart the game and I would already lose to my opponent.

    After the last update, there’s a huge amount of game freezes, Every one out of two/three! It’s not my WiFi, wasn’t the case before the update

    Wifi / 4G connection issues has certainly increased since the last update.. My home network and/or phone provider is not the issue..

    I have to say I’m extremely disappointed with supercell on this app. I have a string of emails going back and forth (I somehow found their customer service email after much digging), where they basically shift blame, saying it’s my wifi, it’s my device, or the newest update fixed it (which, as pointed out by many, didn’t seem to solve the problem). For a company that advertises heavily and pushes their games, you would think their customer support system would be better
