Trapped in Tapped
Long time lurker, only commented once or twice in the last few years but I have finally come to terms with a problem that I (heroically) ignored for years. Long story short; when I first began playing years ago I never created an EA login...just started anonymous and never changed. Now my poor phone is reaching the end of the line and I fear my game will be trapped on my old phone. Is there any solution? If I take my phone in can the memory file be transferred?
Tried EA help and...they couldn't even figure out what game I was talking about.

It's an old one and I have had my origin account for years so I'm not 100% sure it's still up to date but hopefully it helps.
Anonymous games are not stored on a server. That's their primary concern.
They need to save their game and create a user ID. THEN it will be backed up on servers at EA.
Good point. I assumed too much.
It's funny, I tried to create an origin account two years ago and it never gave me the prompt to utilize the file on my device. It always defaulted to a new game, so I was afraid to mess around with it.
Thank you all so much! I've had my phone so long the chrome bits are falling off, I can finally move on!
It's a good rule of thumb to always come to the forum for help before contacting EA. A fair portion of the "help" there doesn't know what they're talking about.
And the other half sends people here to get rid of them faster!
