    There wasn't a specific Jetpack setting, but as long as Documents & Data was enabled, iCloud seemed to work.

    What exactly does it sync though? Just coins and purchases like OpenFeint? Will it sync mission data?

    Also, should I disable OpenFeint if I have iCloud enabled?

    I already posted this once, but my update went fine. Played a couple games today, no glitches, everything where it should be...:D

    Oh, and I'm pretty sure HB did some "touch-ups" on some of the effects. It still blows me away how much attention they pay to updates...:eek:

    Hey guys!

    My name is James and I work with Muscat at Halfbrick.

    I’m here to help with the Jetpack Joyride bugs and will do everything in my power to assist where I can. There appear to be a few different complications at the moment and we’re having a hard time pinpointing the exact cause of these problems. That’s where you come in!

    Let me know if you’re experiencing any issues with the game so we can grab some details and put them to good use. Your feedback is incredibly important and will be a massive help when it comes to releasing a fix as quickly as possible.

    Thanks heaps!

    Cool, and welcome to TA!:D

    I am not actually experiencing any problems (Yay!), but while I've got your ear, could you explain the cloud save? Where it goes, what it saves, etc?

    Thanks!

    Thanks! I believe I've seen your username on Twitter. Glad to hear the update went smoothly! iCloud should save your coins, mission progress, high scores, stats and achievements. In other words: everything! The data is then pushed wirelessly to Apple's servers and can be accessed from multiple devices, as long as you're using the same iCloud account on each device. It's a bit complicated for me to explain in more detail but I hope that answers your question!!

    Just want to post back really quick and say that the update worked fine for me. Did you guys do some optimizations for older devices? I noticed that there's no more stuttering/frame rate drops on my ol' 2nd gen xP

    Any chance we could grab a crash log? This would be a huge help as we're doing everything in our power to prevent further data loss. Just email [email protected] and I'll be happy to send through some instructions. Thanks!

    I also have a ipad 3 running 5.1.1 and had no problems at all. I downloaded the update right to the device over wifi... Did you download it to itunes first and then sync the device? I've had similar issues with other apps on my ipad, and it had something to do with syncing from itunes.

    I downloaded the update to my ipad 3 and the game works great for me. Maybe it is an issue with Itunes specifically, as someone mentioned above.

    So, this question is for the android version but I didn't know where else to ask it. Is there a way to save the snapshots jj takes during the runs? I can't seem to find the icon/button to do it. Thanks

    There is currently no way to do this but I'm told it will be added in a future update. I can't say exactly when this will be but the team is working on it along with a host of other features and content. In the meantime, you can take a screenshot manually depending on what version of Android you're running. Hope that helps!

    Thank you much for the quick response. I'll be honest, I didn't even know I could manually take a screenshot in android. I'm not terribly familiar with this OS still :(

    @ Peanuts -

    Hey, is JJ using the iPhone's Cloud save feature or is a separate Half Brick Cloud? I ask because it doesn't show up in my phone's Cloud list in Settings...
