Frustrating by design, offline mode needed
My Internet connection is horrendously poor. This is in no way restricted to this game, its just a fact of life. And therefore, since this game needs a continuous connection, I am often unable to pla...

Ohmigosh, yes! Even if it just synched slightly less often, that would take a lot of the annoyance out of the game. I get constantly disconnected sometimes, like log in, play for five seconds, OOPS DISCONNECTED. Every other game is fine, I only have issues with Sims Mobile.
@AbigailHawk I wish it was like Freeplay...Save? - Ok...Exit? - Are you sure? - Ok. If nothing else, I would feel better. ☺😉
@sindidoll I feel you. I have a game on a second device (very old phone, no service), and I use wifi and mobile hotspot to connect when I need to restart shifts and such. It would be so great to be able to manipulate my house and fashions offline then connect when I'm ready to update and save.
As it is now, I get that blasted network message probably 80% of the time. Very frustrating. Maybe we'll see accommodation someday for players like us.
@PaQuilter1: Ugh, I hated Freeplay. Though speaking of that - I've been getting ads for Freeplay recently. I thought they shut Freeplay down?
@AbigailHawk I think they stopped offering it on Windows Phones. You probably keep getting the Pregnancy update ad. It's still going strong. ☺
@PaQuilter1: Yeah, that's the one! It keeps freaking me out. I'm severely tokophobic, my sims are NEVER allowed to be pregnant. Thank goodness for the adoption options!

And last I heard, the app is also banned in several countries, seven to be exact. And for those who still have it, can no longer receive any updates on the app.
@AbigailHawk @PaQuilter1 Freeplay is only being shut down in some countries. Arab countries and China. I don't know @terogamusaudiHaz if it's being banned in those countries or they are no longer selling it. It could have to do with politics , tax tariffs issue or the new pregnancy feature for unmarried sims . They are not stopping freeplay overall
