Graphics appear slow and choppy using the new Samsung Note 10.1 2014 edition

I have a Galaxy Mega S3; game play was great (level 43+) until this morning, when the Courthouse and Judge Snyder arrived, and now when I try to scroll around the town, the graphics stutter around and it reads phantom taps.  Looks like there's some tipping point where performance goes wonky.

I just got the Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5 and paid a pretty penny for it.  Simpsons Tapped Out is almost impossible to play on it.  I see where others have the same issues.  It is laggy and choppy.  I can play it on my old HTC Evo LTE phone that is absolutely loaded with other apps.  All other games on the Galaxy Tab S work great.  I have no issues with the Galaxy Tab, just that the Simpsons game apparently is not updated for some Android devices.  I can't believe EA will not fix this issue.  I am not buying donuts anymore for sure.  I will not buy an  Apple device just to play their game.  EA will not get any $$$ from me until they fix it, which apparently will be never from reading the posts here.  Such a shame.

I've given up trying to play it on my Note 10.1 2014 edition. I still play using my old Nexus 7 (first generation). But even this is starting to lag. 

EA seems not interested in sorting this out... Has Samsung got any ideas on the cause of this?

i have been doing the exact same thing for a year now, but with lollipop now installed on my nexus 7 1st edt. I now have a lovely paperweight and have resorted to playing on my phone.........

Good News.......

The Christmas event update has fixed Tapped Out. It's works brilliantly now on my Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 edition with no slowdown.

Same here on Galaxy Note 4 since the Terwilliger event ended. The game became almost unplayable, flickering characters, cannot scroll through lists anymore etc etc. I am close to stop playing it...

Few years later now... I bought a brandnew Samsung tab A 10.1 2016. Simpsons tapped out is still unplayable. STUTSTUTSTUTTER. Sound and image. Other games run quit fine. So what did EA do all this time? Wonder why no more people buy doughnuts?
