Play against strangers! Pick "Random opponent" when starting an online game and you are paired with the next player who is looking. The game begins right away — no friend code needed. And Yatzy Pop! now runs on iPad, full screen.

One fix: opening the app from a turn notification could sometimes show the new-player screen instead of your game, as if you had never played before. The app now remembers who you are.

You can now play against a computer opponent. Choose between two difficulty levels on the home screen: Botzy plays casually and Popzilla plays to win. Online: when your opponent moves while you have the game open, it becomes your turn right away, with no extra tap.

• Turn notifications now take you straight into the right game. • Polished the home screen badge ("1 turn", not "1 turns").

Async play got smoother: • After your move, hop straight into the next game where it's your turn — no trip back to the list. • Tap a turn notification and land right in that game. • Hosts get a nudge the moment the last friend answers the invite, so games start sooner. • The app reconnects and refreshes when you come back — never yesterday's scores. • Need out of a game? The ··· menu lets you give it up gracefully. • A fresh coat of polish on the home screen and your games list.
