No cloud save

I've been playing for months now with two accounts (one actually was for my daughter) but since last weekend for one of my accounts my cloud save is gone. I tried everything, log out in the account ...

    I’m sorry you ran into this issue! 
    Did you possibly also play with Google Play logged in not long before this happened? There might be a chance to get that save. Depending on when you saved with Google Play, you may have lost some progress though :( 

    You can also contact Support for help. You’ll find  a button “Help Center” at the bottom of this site.

I‘m glad you got your town back!

For sure it’s better to have different towns on different devices!  

I hope you don't mind another suggestion. Use both accounts for your town to save the game. Upload the data once when only Google Play is logged in, and again when Facebook is also logged in. The game used to do this automatically, like it’s stated in the Account Manager. But now we have to do it on our own.

Thanks for the advice, that's a good idea. So I will have to log in on Google Play, save to cloud, log out, log in on FB, save to cloud and that way I will have two cloud saves (normally, when things go like they should). Now I will try to find out whether I can have a second Google Play account to connect to the other SFP account, so that I can double-cloudsave for both games. Thank you once again!

    You’re welcome!

    I’m not sure if it’s necessary to log out from Google Play. Guess, it’s the same on Android and iOS devices. 
    Usually I let my Game Center account logged in all the time, and just log in with the FB account on top. Then I force close/open up the game, upload to the cloud and log out from FB again.
    I want to avoid the current issues with FB login in SFP on Apple devices, so I only use FB when needed.

      I play on Android. Before I logged out of Google, I was always connected with both, FB ànd Google. But it seems that when I was uploading to the cloud, it only uploaded to Google, never to FB. Maybe that's an Android issue, but to stay safe I'll do both separate.

      How do you get your neighbours without FB btw?

        If you feel better with uploading separate, it’s the best you can do 🙂  

        Unfortunately we don’t get neighbors without FB anymore.
