It's not a bug. If you open a game on one device (ie. your iPad) then you have to finish it there. You can't open that same game on another device (ie. your iPhone).

Yeah, this is a known behavior: if you uninstall/reinstall Outwitters, it considers itself as "being on a new device". Alex fixed this the last time someone reported it, but these days he's busy working on the update, so it might take longer for him to get to you.

There is a designated thread for identifying bugs in outwitters created by the devs. However, lets say it is your turn on a particular game... And you open that game on your iPad or iPhone, then you must complete that turn on the device you originally opened it with... Once you finish and submit that turn on said device, the next time it is your turn you will be able to use any compatible iOS device to open that game and use your turn.. But again, once you have opened it you must finish that turn on that device.

I hope this helps Smile

It only applies for games that have been opened and not completed on one device.
