@SalixCat U know the blue icon that shows up on the mail box when there's a ad available to watch in sims mobile. Well that blue icon disappears when I select it & then I can't watch the ad. I guess it's the ad watch mail boxs that crash in my game. That is my only issue in sims mobile

This also happens to me, when I click on mailbox, the blue button dissapears and no ads show up(no rewards) I have to close app and open it again. Same happens when I get the option of extra reward after completing mision, in this case the game gets bugged and I can’t do anything until I restart the app(no reward).

Finally, in the case of STS event, the ads sometimes don’t show up but incredibly it gives me the reward.

@powalola227 Would you be able to capture a video of any of he issues you mentioned using the screen recorder function on your phone? It would be very helpful for us to see, if you're able. I don't think you can attach video files here, but if you upload it to youtube as an unlisted video and link that here, that should work.

I click on the watch ad play button on the mailbox, The next screen pops up for me to select the big blue play button or the green button watch video ad.  It does not matter which I choose, no ad plays and I am brought back to the front of the house and the blue play button is there for me to select again.  This happens repeatedly until the blue play button is no longer available. I have been able to watch maybe 3 ads and I am on level 16.  Also from reading other posts with this same issue I would like to add it does not matter if it is the house mailbox or one of the mailboxes in town,  I am also new to androids.  Any tips are appreciated, thank you!
