Please add these ideas to this game

Love the game it’s relaxing but I have some ideas to make it better 1: please add colors to the game once you make it to 4096 the black color gets a little bit boring so make a color scheme please. 2: add different grids to the game like 3x3 and 5x5-8x8 because I’ve got to the point we’re I’ve got so high I can’t get higher because there’s not enough room so add more grids please. 3: please add more then one undo make it five so people can make more progress, and please fix the undo glitch sometimes when I need to undo I Press the button and it doesn’t undo and I have to restart and that’s annoying so please add these to the game Thankyou.

Undo button + swipe sensitivity

Overall, I love this app. Not a lot of iOS apps have the original game’s 10% 4 spawn rate, and the game runs really smoothly. However, I do have two big issues with it. The first is the fact that there is no indication at the game over screen as to whether or not the undo button was used. I’m in a 2048 Discord server where we host tournaments and the rankings are based on the sum of your top legitimate scores, and without being able to see if the undo button was used it is very difficult to see if a score was faked or not, since you can simply toggle the undo off before you die and it will not appear on the game over screen. I feel that it would be better if there was a counter at the game over screen showing how many times the undo button was used over the entire run, regardless of whether or not it is toggled on at the end of the run. My second issue is that I fel that the app is much too sensitive to swipes. I have had this app register a literal tap as a swipe before, even though my finger barely moved at all. This can benefit players who are trying to get a faster time, but I have had games ruined because the app registered a swipe up when there was none. At the very least I think there should be a feature that allows players to adjust the swipe sensitivity to guard against these accidental swipes.

Ads Have Made my Favorite App Unusable

Edit: recv’d response from dev that all ads have x’s in corners. this simply isn’t the case. some ads started coming with app store buttons to close instead of the x’s, and increasingly ads started showing up with none. when i couldn’t find any, i even blindly tapped the corners where they usually are. clicking into the ad and returning with < 2048 in upper left still reveals no x. on iphone 12 pro max; 15.3.1. i played the game many times a day, trying to keep my 2048 tile time under 10min, and 4096 under 22min. i’m pretty sure i’m not being stumped by the ad close button between games, but i could be wrong…i was getting ad server errors intermittently as well with something like “index?foo&bar could not be displayed properly.”

The ads have ruined this app. The game itself is a commodity by now, so there are lots of different apps with the same game. The ads they’re serving between games take the app hostsge indefinitely. i’m uninstalling it and using one of the alternatives. it’s just not worth the pain of having to kill the app between each game when there are so many alternatives available.

Every ad has an X or arrows to skip after a few seconds. Look in the top corners.
