Best Of

The past few days I can no longer have something playing in the background on my phone while playing the game. Why? This sudden change is a nuisance.

can someone explain why I can’t play music in background anymore ?

even I closed the video

Please help. I enjoy playing this game while listening to podcasts. I’m not interested in playing without being able to multitask. THANK YOU!

can u help us somehow pls? 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Hello @gtamanaha, We are aware of this issue and hope the Studio will have it fixed soon. Look for an update in the following discussion: 👉Audio issues

Please see the update (blue background) from the CM in the original post.

Hello Candy Crush Support Team,

Since updating to iOS 26.3 on my iPhone 17, my Spotify and Audible audio stops completely every time I open Candy Crush Saga. The audio indicator disappears, and playback pauses immediately, even when game music and sound effects are turned off.
This issue did not happen before and seems related to the game taking exclusive audio control.

Please advise if there is a fix or if an update is planned to resolve this issue.
Thank you,Eleonora

I can no longer listen to podcasts or YouTube videos while playing Candy Crush. Who's going to sit there and play Candy Crush without multitasking and doing something else? What is happening?

about 3 days ago I lost the ability to listen to audio books while playing Candy crush. It’s driving me insane because I always play music or listen to books while playing. Now whenever I open the app my audio immediately ends. Are you able to fix this?
