My sims can not take a bath in bathtubs - spring update on mobile

This is not the same as the issue with “baby bassinets” as I already removed them from my homes previously. I also do not have pets.

Since the new spring update (2022) none of my sims have been able to take a bath. I have all 7 lots  and have tried bathing my sims at all 7 homes, have tried moving the bathtubs, removing all other sims from homes, restarting the game and nothing.

It just keeps giving me the error “Sims wants privacy!” But no other sims are present and again, all bassinets have been previously removed and no pets. 

Also have not rebuilt or re-arranged homes recently so nothing has been moved or changed since the bath option was working just a couple of days ago. The only difference is that I updated to the new Spring season and now bathing isn’t working for my sims. 

Was going to attach pictures to view the issue, but the images are too large and when I size them down they don’t match the file and won’t let me submit them 🤦🏻‍♀️

  • I have this problem too.

    I couldn’t use the bath yesterday and today the bath has completely disappeared! It’s not in my inventory either ☹️ 

  • Hi, @N3JMXDJ and @jessiedhal

    You can find the bug report about not being able to get energy from bathtubs here. You can post a comment or click ’Me too’. There’s also mentioned that the fix is coming (Simguru Skye’s tweet also below). 

  • Quick Update! I just finish the treasure hunt event and I got the “Sizzling Hot Tub”. Then my sims can finally take bath! BUT! But only in the newer versions tub like the “Sweetheart Spa” from the last event. Other regular tub items still not working. Please see the pictures I took.

    same thing happened to me! but i have to put the sizzling hot tub in the same lot in order for the sweetheart tub can work, mine is weird tho the tub is misplaced counterways after the update so i have to glitch to make it look normal again

    check out these pictures

  • There’s update available when opening the game and it fixes the energy recharging from the bathtubs.

  • @Ilois4 That’s been fixed today, however I’m having problems with my sweetheart spa tub.. it appears the tub isn’t in the right placing and it’s glitching when I attempt to use it.

    @ctannu Unfortunately Sweetheart spa’s placement issue and animation didn’t get fixed yet. You can find the bug report for it here.
