Help

Questions people ask about Skip Solitaire. For the rules themselves, see how to play.

How do I play with a friend?

Tap Play Online, then share the six-digit room code — read it out, send the QR code, or use Invite Friends to send a Game Center invitation. Your friend taps Join with Code and they're at your table.

Can we talk while we play?

Yes. Start a FaceTime call first, then open the game and choose Play on FaceTime, or pick SharePlay from the Play Online screen. You talk over FaceTime and play at the same time.

Do I need Game Center?

Only to play online, and only to be signed in — no friend requests needed. Practice games work with no connection at all.

What happens if I lose signal?

The table waits for you. Rejoin and you carry on where you were. If everyone else has gone, the game holds still until someone comes back, or you can tap Play On and let the computer take the empty seats.

Where are my saved games?

Saved Games on the home screen. Games save themselves as you play, and follow you to your other devices through iCloud. Swipe a game aside to delete it.

How does the turn timer work?

It's off until someone chooses a length when the table is set up. Every play starts the clock again, so it only runs out on a player who has stopped playing: then a card is discarded for them and the turn passes. Twice in a row and the computer plays their seat until they tap I'm Back.

It helps to say which game and which version you're on — Settings in the app names the version at the foot of the screen in TestFlight builds, and the App Store page names it too.
