I have an older iPad 2nd generation Safari iOS 9.3.5 which I believe is now maxed on updates. The game plays slower at times, and I'm basically always or near always maxed out on items. I used to do more landscaping, but not only slowed on that, but have been getting rid of unnecessary tree's and bushes. Parking lots are being stored, besides, you can't park on parking spaces, and I like adding cars to stores and buildings on occasion. You learn as you go. Been playing this since 2012, do my town is pretty much filled up. At least I'm not a plopper, I think out an area, then place buildings & a few decorations. Someday, I'll get a new iPad, but, since my desktop took a crap 4 months ago, it's a choice between a new iPad, or computer, which is sort of out of my reach right now. Can't afford both, and as long as my iPad holds out, I'll probably look around soon for a new PC..
