- I've reinstalled game pigeon over and over and I dont know why it isnt working. Dec 3, 2016 5:56 AM. Girlfriend can't play me back on iMessage games (ios10) I send her moves on Words or game pigeon and they just show up as images and not as games. She can send me moves but on game pigeon it asks me to update to the latest version.
- Game pigeon cup pong cheat. Hi I'm here to help just in case ya are still having a problem deleting the app called game pigeon. The game won’t open for me on my iPad, iPhone or Android-based device. In order to play Flash games, you have to install.
- One of my friends try to invite me to a game from gamepigeon, but when I tap on the invite literally nothing happens. Like as if I didn’t press anything at all. It seems to work for my other friends because I can play with other people, but with my friend it doesn’t seem to work. She had a iPhone SE and I have a iPhone 7.
So my game pigeon isn't working for me. I have been able to use it in the past but today and yesterday it won't let me. I have restarted my phone and I have storage on my phone. I also have a 5s. If anyone could help me that would be great! Be the first to share what you think! It still doesn’t work for me. I hadn’t played it since i installed the beta, which was two weeks ago and yesterday was the first time. Got an invited played and sent it, and the when my friend played me back it would throw one ball and freeze. I haven’t tried it on any other games though.
