Forum:Versions

Hi !

I have a few remarks/questions about he recently released version 1.0.4, especially in regard of performance review.

I have noted a rather inconvenient surge in power usage by the game in this version. The 1.0.2 was already a bit of a battery sucker, but now, it's even worse. For example, this morning, I lost mort than 10% of my battery life expectancy in less than 10 min of gaming. In the mean time, I could feel my iPhone (an eight-month old 3GS with no other app in memory than Pocket Frogs) heating up very quickly in my hand.

It seems obvious to me that the CPU usage is skyrocketing, therefore sucking up the battery very fast, especially if you spent a bit of time in the pond maturing a young frog.

In the mean time, I have encountered numerous freezes during the game, ranging from half a second to 6/7 seconds, which to me is abnormally huge. Here are a short list of situations in which I endured those freezes :

- jumping on a gift box in the pond. The screen displays the frog with its legs streched, calculating whatever it needs for a few secondes before flashing the pop-up announcing what the gift is.

- scrolling up and down the main habitat list screen. The grey box of the habitat stays empty for a few secs before its frogs are displayed.

- any number of pop-up notifications, whether it is a frog hatching or maturing, an award, a mailbox delivery can occasionnally generate a freeze of a few seconds.

Am I the only one having these sorts of problems, or do other people have experienced it as well ? ZhaDhum 09:34, October 8, 2010 (UTC)
