Very simply, using the tab on mobile devices causes the game to break (infinite loading and action buttons stop working). It means I can't do anything to planets unless they're alerted. If it's fixable, that needs to be priority.
I use Safari on an iPhone 3GS with factory operating system.

I use Safari on an iPhone 3GS with factory operating system. I'm guessing you clicked too many times. If you try to load a planet then tap somewhere before out has finished loading it seems to freeze up. You have to be patient. If this happens click another tab, battle tab for example, wait for that to load, then try again with the planet tab. I know its one of the slowest things on mobile( at least for me) you just have to have patience.

No no, it breaks completely when I get there. If I move to another tab and it loads successfully, all the actions are still selectable but do nothing. The only remedy is refreshing the page.

The planets tab lags for me even on my sup0erfast PC due to all the information it needs to grab from the database. I can imagine a phone wouldn't be able to handle it well. I think changing the whole planets tab a bit would be nice.

same here on the iPhone 4s with 32gb! It's just terrible on the iOS system; Although at least I can now check in and empty out my R/M/A now vs. last year when I couldn't. DAN please know this: I don't play any more games on facebook or the PC except for yours! DAN if your wondering why players are leaving (it seems that way, I could be wrong) it's because the game is just so damn hard to play on the iOS system and I suspect other mobile touch systems. I urge you to figure out how to get this game to play on the iOS and other mobile touch systems. iOS first since those owners spend a lot more than Android owners according to academic studies. I do play Bejeweled Blitz much more because they figured out a way to make it playable on the iOS and take payment through various sites. just my two cents.

You think people are leaving cause GL isn't very good on mobile?

You can't really blame Dan. It's not going to be compatible everywhere. People are leaving because of the lack of content, and all the unfixed bugs.

This is still an issue. The planets tab is unusable on iOS.

I can't do anything from a planet's tab when it comes to planets on my iphone 4 (clicking on build structure, etc. just gives me an infinite loading bar), everything else works for me

I hate dolphin. Safari was always the best for me, I just need a fix for the game breaking on planets

It's not lag, it's processing time required to build a page of the few hundred or so planets that you've got on scan. There'snot a whole lot you can do, I'm afraid.

Now my iphone is jailbroken and still running ios 4.2 for what its worth and crashes on certain applications, doubt it has anything to do with it, but I could be wrong.

try OPERA MOBILE, it works for me and have has very few crashes. planet tab is really slow still, but its gathering a lot of data.. so its to be expected. I never use a WIFI connection, so i dunno if that would speed it up or not.
