Overlay and lag issue | Forums

[Whitechapple]

Yesterday I logged into Trials and noticed my top layer of phone data now showed up in game (the bar that shows cell coverage, time, and battery). That by itself isn't really an issue, but now leaning forward and leaning back are about half a second lagged, which makes the game of precision controls unplayable.



Anyone else ever experienced this? I tried deleting and re downloading the game - same issue. Any suggestions are welcome.

I have never seen this. I can pull my overlay down while playing by grabbing the top of the screen with my finger, but it always goes away after a few seconds. I assume you have tried restarting the device? Maybe try opening other apps and seeing if it does it there too? I'm not sure man, I can see how that can be frustrating. I personally get to play about 1/5 of the levels at 2x speed!

I had the same issue earlier today.



It's reverted to normal now though. I tried everything I could think of but it didn't help. This was also happening with Safari so I know it's not a game issue, it's a phone issue. Hopefully by now yours has reverted to normal too. If not then leave it for a night and it may be fine by tomorrow.

I'm experiencing a huge input lag right now on Android. I just wasted a bunch of tickets just trying to finish levels. What the hell is going on?

I hope the problem fixes itself after a while. I closed every other ap that was running, but nothing seems to make a difference.

I'll wait it out, and see what happens. It's about time to delete and refresh my phone anyways

I had the overlay issue for the entire day, and it's finally gone for me. The lag still remains even when the overlay is fixed, however.

This has never happened on Android devices (AFAIK), I do have 2 overlays on my screen - round angles and a battery bar, but they never interfered with the game or any other app, or the launcher (interface) I use, in terms of creating lag.

Maybe you iOS guys received some sort of an incremental update from apple, somewhere in between or the game simply had a quirk on iOS?
