Sims free play stuck on age screen

Hi all!
I’ve just downloaded sims freeplay onto my iPad but when I open the app, and it asks for my age it won’t go any further - I put my age in and click continue and nothing happens. iPad and app are both completely up to date... any suggestions very welcome - I just wanna play the game!!

    I found this on another site. I don't know if it works, but I thought I would pass it along. If you try this and it works or doesn't work I would appreciate if you post your results for everyone else. Thank you.


    1. Switch your device to "Airplane Mode" (this should turn the wi-fi off)
    2. Now, open Sims Freeplay
    3. A pop-up should come saying "Internet access required" (or something like that)
    4. Now go to setting and switch off the Airplane Mode (with the app STILL RUNNING in the background). Make sure you're now connected to wifi.
    5. Open app- it works.

    If you're using your "data", switch that off too.

  • I am using an iPhone 7+ and it won’t go pass the age page for me. It’s very frustrating and makes me want to throw my phone across the room🙂 but if anyone knows what to do please tell me

    I’m having the same problem since the update :

    - my game wouldn’t update so I deleted it and reinstalled it.

    - when I open the new game, I’m stuck at the age screen. I write the age and tap « continue » but nothing happened.

    - uninstalled and reinstalled the game several times, nothing changes 

    - made the connection on and off several times, nothing changes 

    - put the iPad on and off several times, nothing changes 

    N. B. The game was working perfectly till the update this morning.

              I tried the chat help on ea help page which is not working as well
