    Hi Cyndi, I truly wish that I could wave a magic wand over that stupid challenge and get rid of it but it' s not that easy.  I thank you very much for writing what you just wrote.  The studio monitors these challenges and, unfortunately some players are playing it and winning so I don't know if they have collected enough data from players writing here complaining about it and wanting it off the game.

    This is breaking GDPR rules in Europe yet King continue to force this on us - I don't want to be paired with people I have blocked in facebook - its complete rubbish

    Well done we have to get King to recognise European law - they are insensitive money grabbers

    Hi guys,

    I have an update for you on the buddy challenge if you play it on a mobile device.  You can now opt out of this challenge.  You can read all about it here:  https://care.king.com/en/candy-crush-saga/superstar-information-post-can-i-opt-out-of-playing-the-buddy-challenge

    Elsa I went to this link to opt out and it says "Page not found" I too hate the buddy challenge. You click the X and it still makes you do it. No way around it. I too may uninstall. So aggravating!

    Thanks @Elsa

    Hi @Janden07 please see our full guide on the Buddy Challenge here

    How do I opt-out?

    If the rewards and fun of the Buddy Challenge aren't something that appeals to you, don't worry - you can switch this feature off.

    To do this, take the following steps on a mobile device.

    • Open Candy Crush Saga
    • Before tapping 'Play', tap the pink gearwheel in the lower left corner
    • Tap the green wheel button to open the Settings menu
    • Scroll down the menu until you see the green check-mark topic 'Features' and tap it
    • In this menu, you'll see there's an option to opt-out of the Buddy Challenge.  Take this and close the menu.

    If these steps are followed fully, you'll no longer take part in the Buddy Challenge and other players be able to choose you as their buddy.


    Thanks!
