I'm on an iPad. When the game first came out I downloaded it on my Android phone and immediately got rid of it because it was impossible to play on it. I was so glad when I got my iPad and was able to play :)

I'm on an iPad. I can't imagine it being played on a phone.

Samsung Galaxy S Tab 2 Nook. I had it on an iPad Mini but decided to reset that game and now it won't progress on that device.

I played more on my Ipad2 than on Note 5. Although Ipad 2 is already showing its age & it lags, I still prefer it its bigger screen.

Oh and I also have a Note 4. But I am playing less and less on that unless I travel and need internet access. I mainly back up my game from my Nook to my Note in case of a crash.

Android phone, android tablet and Kindle. The tablet/Kindle layouts are preferred as you can have Simtracker or hobby menus open without covering play area. I hate switching back and forth. But the phone is handy for traveling and it is faster. (My Kindle and tablet are older.)

I played on a gen1 or 2 iPad (no camera!) until the iOS couldn't be updated any more and then bought an iPad mini to keep playing. I'm now saving for a bigger iPad with more memory because I miss the iPad's larger screen size vs the mini's screen size.

I tried playing on my android phone but, for me, it was impossible.

Yeah, I have it on my kindle too. I only have one main game, which is on my kindle. I'm not sure how I can add neighbors since I'm playing on a kindle. It's not apple so I don't have a Game Center. I don't want to restart on another device, because I'm really far on my kindle and have used lots of money on the game, plus I've been playing for just over 2 years. Please help.

I added my Kindle neighbors through facebook. (I have an old Kindle Fire, don't know about other versions.) If you want to use another device, you save your game to the Cloud. After you put SFP on the other device, you can download your saved game.

I started playing on an iPad Air, and late last year moved my game to my new iPad Pro. Love love LOVE the bigger screen for this. It's so much easier to see everything and tap where I need to. Tried it a long time ago on my iPod Touch, but the screen was way too small. I ended up deleting the game there.
