• Your progress and leaderboard name come back if you delete the app and install it again • Missiles now explode with a proper bang • Blocks drop a row at a time, in a wave • Lasers count blocks down one at a time • Fixed: losing your last life could score a level higher than you reached • Smoother play with lots of balls and blocks on screen

• Rockets now break the first block they hit, whatever its number. Missile launchers turn up a little less often to make up for it. • New daily twist: Laser Day. And from 16 November, Lasers, Big and Tiny balls turn up in every daily challenge. • New twists can arrive without an update. Open the game online once and the next few days' challenges are ready, even offline. • Fixed: after an update, a score could fail to reach the leaderboard

• New special: Lasers. Hit one and its beam sweeps round, slicing through blocks until the turn ends. • Rebalanced specials: Clones turn up more often and Double-Shot less, and missiles hit harder as the levels climb • Missile launchers show their aim with ghost rockets, and the volley flies just as they showed • A quick tour of the screen on your first game. Replay it any time from Help. • Help explains every special in a line or two, with Next to step through them • Recall and Speed stay on screen, lighting up once a shot is under way • Fixed: sound could stay off after an ad • Fixed: a resumed game's launchers pointed somewhere new • Fairer leaderboards: scores are checked to make sure they were played in the game

• A new look for portals: a tunnel of rings in the block's own outline • Sound now comes back after a timer, alarm, call or ad • Sticky speed remembers your fast-forward level between games • The logo lands with a thud

• Smoother, more battery-friendly performance • Game mechanics updates and fixes

• Share your result: a Share button on the daily game over and on every leaderboard sends a picture of your level, rank and stars • Fixed: a game could freeze when an ad was due on the level you lost on. Ads now wait until you're ready to aim. • New game from the pause screen now saves your run to the leaderboard first

• New mode: Cubez. Blocks turn between hexagons and cubes as the board drops, and the flat sides send balls off at new angles. Play it from Home, with its own leaderboard. • New specials: hit Big Balls or Tiny Balls and every ball grows or shrinks on the spot • Two new daily twists: Sudden Death and Cubez Day • Redesigned shop, with 70 balls in seven sets • Dark balls are lighter, so they stand out on the board • x2 and x4 timers only run while balls are in flight, not while you aim • Fixed: sound could go quiet after an ad or after switching apps

• Backgrounds now move as you tilt your phone, from a deep starfield to carbon fibre that catches the light. You can turn this off in Settings. • Blocks that reach the floor now smash to pieces • Block colours keep their full rainbow at high levels, instead of turning all blue • Fixed: fired missile launchers left a red circle behind

• Smoother play in big volleys, even with hundreds of balls in the air • Fixed: a board background from the shop could disappear after starting a new game • Lighter on battery and smoother haptics in busy moments

Ball Busters has been rebuilt from the ground up. • Comic-book board clears: clear every block for a KABOOM • New specials: turning missile launchers and portals • A daily challenge with a new twist and three goals every day • 43 balls to collect, plus trails, block themes, hit effects, aim guides and board backgrounds • Missions, daily rewards and new leaderboards • Uses the full screen on every iPhone, with haptics you can turn off • Lots of smaller fixes and polish
