"There was a connection error. Try again in a bit"

Xoruk!

It's no overloaded server, sounds like a bug to me.

Asking a question and trying to confirm isn't a "lashing". How is asking if you have technical expertise "lashing" you? Relax. If you say it isn't server overload then that assumes you know what it IS. So unless you do know the exact cause I'm not particularly interested. I could say it's a sun flare or the planets aren't aligned..... Seeing as I don't know though, I'm not going to say what it IS NOT when I don't know what it actually IS. Logical really.

Thank you for replies...

I can't log in to King or facebook it says connection error always, I'm at 1,321 level :(

I’ve tried changing passwords. Still “connection error”.

soooo without “logging on”, what happens when I de-install, re-install game ? I lose everything??

Just boosters, gold and last saved level are good. I'm on level 6433 and it's very irritating. Let's keep our fingers crossed they find a fix soon!

I found a workaround on iOS!

Open Settings, find settings for Candy Crush & Turn off Background App Refresh & Mobile Data

Open Candy Crush

Tap Profile, it should now show you as logged in. Hit Edit.

Go back to Settings for the app & Turn on Background App Refresh & Mobile Data

Go back to Candy Crush & enter your password.

Success!

This worked for Soda Saga too

I can't log in on either Facebook or any Candy Crush app. This has been going on for some time. I have tried various devices and still get the same message.
