<br />
 
Dear Townshippers,<br />
 
<br />
 
We are aware that many of you are experiencing issues with accessing your friends' towns and receiving gifts/help. All these problems are caused by the major technical issues with our servers. Our developers are currently working on the solution, and we will be implementing a fix in the upcoming updates to Township.
 
 
Meanwhile, please try the following steps:
 
* Open Township
 
* Go to the Settings (upper left corner) and disconnect your game from Facebook.
 
* Exit Township, launch your Facebook app and log out from it
 
* Exit Facebook and open your device's Settings
 
* Search for "Facebook" in the list and make sure that you are connected to your account there. If you are not, please log in with your Facebook user name and password
 
* Open Township again, go to the Settings (upper left corner) and connect your game to Facebook (tap on "Connect to Facebook" button)
 
* You should get a pop-up message asking for your permission to access your Facebook profile. Please select "Ok" - note that if you choose "Don't Allow", your town won't be connected to your Facebook account
 
* Please try the steps above several times. It may do the trick, and your game will get connected to the server.
 
 
 
 
Once again, we are terribly sorry for any inconvenience caused. We appreciate your patience and understanding very much!
 
 
P.S. Please do NOT reinstall the game - it may lead to progress loss.
