starting today, I’m no longer able to earn hand switches in Sweet Cinema, apparently replaced by 10 minutes of free lives & fish. Why not replace the licorice wheels, which are easily earned, but very seldom used?
Please bring back hand switches.

agree!!!
I hope you're right, but will only believe it when I see it. I've made up my mind to take a break from the game, until I feel that it's fun to play, and not impossible.
Obviously, the change WASN'T FOR EVERYONE, because I haven't received any changes
Well @stephanie2024 I would say it is me that hasn't received any changes, but I do not expect that to be the case for much longer. I fully expect that the change everyone is complaining about will catch up to me sometime.
Oh wait…yours is still 12/16 with switches?? Since the change, mine has been 10/16, no switches. Oof
You're one of the lucky ones, because I still don't get the Free Switch. I get the Sweet Cinema, but get the fish and wheels. I definitely think they pick and choose who gets what kind of boosters in the Sweet Cinema. For that reason, it makes it harder and harder to want to continue playing this game.
12/16 @myname_wastaken I have never had the 11/16 version
Also are you still at 11/16? How many switches did you get? What else did they change? So curious now.
Amazing! I'm really happy for you and also ridiculously jealous. This gives me some hope tho.
Looks like I spoke too soon. After playing one Episode today my Sweet Cinema reappeared.
I got the Factory Frenzy today as well @HM100
That's not correct @HM100 as I had Factory Frenzy on my Android phone yesterday. I have never had the Baker's Box
Not only that. Free Switch (Alongside Striped Brush) has started to become even rarer. The Timed Free Switch was dropped from the Podium Prize and timed Brush can't be awarded from Weekly Contest and Podium Prize any longer.
Factory Frenzy while awards Free Switch still, it is only on Windows as on Android/iOS/Mobile it is replaced with 7 spoons.
@Alienscar I never got this feature in my game.
You're probably not going to get the Free Switch back. I did receive a message from one of the moderator, and they said they're working with King to "hopefully" bring the free Switch back. Let's hope it actually happens!
Well I got my last Free Switch today
I collected all twelve boosters
.When I refreshed my Sweet Cinema disappeared completely 😞
I agree 💯! I too, have had to rely on getting the lollipops in the Sweet Cinema, although it takes many times of watching the ads to collect the lollipops. The coconut wheel doesn't help too much, so hopefully King will bring back the Free Switch. Definitely, not getting my hopes up too high!
since the switches have not been earnable (January 28), I’ve watched ads to build up my lollipop supply, however I need to watch twice as many to have enough of a supply. I had a short supply of switches when this change started, which I use sparingly. Even my Season Pass no longer even offers ONE. Now the only way for me to get switches is with gold bars.
Why not eliminate the coconut wheels from Sweet Cinema? In the 3 new episodes I’ve played since the change, the coconut wheel was only used ONCE! I don’t need any more coconut wheels. I have 7300+.
I play one new episode every 3 days, when the super color bomb gets offered to me. Without that I would not be able to get thru an episode without using up my gold bar & lollipop supply.
This change is discouraging. Please bring back switches.
I wonder if this will be my last one then...
I’m boycotting game until they change it back. No use playing as I won’t be able to advance far without hand switches. Hope others will do same to get the message out to them
No more hand switchers in Sweet Cinema for me either! They seem to have been replaced with 10m of Lives which is completely useless since that 10 minutes starts as soon as you hit claim. Hammers & Switchers were the only useful treats in Sweet Cinema and now in a round you get one hammer & no switchers. Very annoying. I'm on round 19792 and seriously thinking about not playing anymore.
It would be nice if the people you’re selected to play with were on games closer to the level you’re on. I’m on 13,000 something and I play with folks that are on games 1-400. Where they win 60 games in 30 minutes. Meanwhile, I can use all my boosters and gold on a single game. And then lose my supercharge colorbombs and progress in the race to win gold bars and not win the episode race
Ha! Love that. Doubt seriously my absence would matter. I’m sure enough new people join every day to negate the silence of me walking away. I’d rather complain with a wink and a smile.
As I mentioned in another thread, I did finally lose the free switches in Sweet Cinema yesterday. Very sad. As someone else mentioned in another thread, perhaps it should be renamed to Bitter Cinema.
I did get the new Season Pass at the same time you did.
I'm collecting lots of lollipop hammers for now in the hope they will help. I will play with strategies next week when I (hopefully) get the supercharger again, and see if I can find something that works. I'm thinking that worst case I can just try to live with a minimum of free switches (will probably need at least 90 though), and see if I can get enough gold along the way to pay for them all. But it seems like it's going to be tough to still break even.
As long as there is no free switches in the sweet cinema, I will not play the game anymore.
So sorry to hear that @Nobody1 . They add these changes as they see fit. My games are now seeing the new Season Pass and I very much doubt it will revert back. I never look at Sweet Cinema so I have no idea what version I have, but I think soon the testing will be done and all players will see the same event type. They have been streamlining the levels and now they are streamlining the events as well. Good luck finding an alternative.
W pełni zgoda po 20000 niedobrze mi się tu robi jakby tacy gracze po prostu byli zbędni - tak to odczuwam, od nagrody za 20000 po terazniejsze beznadziejne ZMIANY!!!!!!
Ja też nie płacę więc czas poszukać innej gry tu już siedzieć nie ma sensu z tymi zmianami brak łapek w słodkim kinie przelało szale na stronę odejścia z tej coraz bardziej skomercjalizowanej gry... Wyścigi tygodniowe z nowymi graczami przy lewelach kilkunastotysiecznych, cz teraz gdy mam ponad 20000 to jest chore i niesprawiedliwe nie mam szans z lewelem 50 czy tym podobnym. Nagroda za 20000 śmiechu na sali niedobrze się robi to po prostu zniechęcenie, Do dalszej zabawy.... Szkoda że tak to się kończy
Gra traci sens zmiany na gorsze dla graczy nie kupujących CZAS kończyć, fajnie było mam ponad 20000 poziom i dla mnie Gra traci sens Słodkim kinem i z mi fanami w nim zabiliście grę… łapki już tylko za pieniądze??? To chore
who’s brilliant idea was it to make the recent changes to this game. I have not, nor will I ever, paid to play.
Not to be a further downer but when I got The Change ™️ last week I lost not only the switch but also down to 10/16 possibilities, not 11 like you. I don’t get it. It’s really upsetting especially after having all my switches and hammers get disappeared when I took a break over xmas. Feels like the gods are conspiring since I hit 20,000. The game has lost so much of the character we’d come to enjoy. It sucks
Veo todos los anuncios y la mayoría de las veces no me da la recompensa
I'm gutted. I have been collecting free switches from Sweet Cinema all week, but in the past hour it changed to the 11/16 version.
It will be interesting to see what I can come up with now as a new way for staying at the end of the map and keeping my streak without losing gold. I will report on it as I figure it out.
My app is already updated @jellybean437 but I still have the twelve version of Sweet Cinema.
This is the nature of Candy Crush people get different versions of features and some people don't get the feature at all.
Free Switches are a must for the Chocolate Box and for some levels. Not getting them on mobile from Sweet Cinema will make me to avoid the Free Switch task from the Chocolate Box unless I use Gold for these. Jelly Fish is useless on Star Tournament levels as the third pregame booster is always Lucky Candy. This makes Free Switch be like a rare booster like UFO and Party but common than the two mentioned ones.
Overall, I'm in a mixed stance with the Sweet Cinema Update. While you still get Lollipop, the lack of free switch makes things less fun if you plan to rely on these. Booster wheel is not always an option of getting Free Switch since it works once per day
Today I've got the Sweet Cinema without free switches.
mine had 12 as of 12 hours ago. Opened this morning and there it is. I updated the app a few days ago because if you don’t the game slows down and gets glitchy. So go as long as you can without updating , I guess.
I agree. Terrible change
Not that it helps you @jellybean437 but my Sweet Cinema is still the twelve version.
Stop using it for a while and hopefully they will get the message.
now there’s only 11 out of 16 possible boosters. Boo. You know what I don’t need? Infinity lives for minutes (I have friends for that) or fish!! You know what’s not there? Free Switch!!! Just when you think you couldn’t further ruin this game, BOOM! You did. Some of these games are impossible to win without the lollipop hammer and free switch. No I’m not going to spend actual money on this game. Your new changes are awful. There should be more frequent opportunities to win gold bars so we can trade it for the boosters that are no longer available in Sweet Cinema
The only thing that is going to help me are the lollipops, and I'll need lots of them when I get stuck on very hard levels. Be happy that you're lucky to get the Free Switches.
I also still have them so far. I have gotten 40 of them from Sweet Cinema since the new levels dropped on Wednesday. Hoping they keep coming - without them I will need to change my strategy to stay indefinitely at the end of the map without losing gold bars. Probably I would need to watch even more ads and rely more on lollipop hammers.
