    I have the same problem.
    Tried killing AppStore app and rebooted my iPad.
    No go.

    The app description details the latest update ver. 1.10, but I have no option other than opening the game.
    I don't have automatic updates enabled.
    My game is still ver. 1.0.

    This is very, very strange. I've never seen anything like this.

    Edit
    I don't know if this has any significance, but since another Danish poster had the same issue - I'm also on the Danish AppStore.

    Maybe a sync via iTunes does the trick

    Maybe, but I don't have the hours needed for that... I absolutely hate iTunes sync. It takes forever and a day to do that.
    I'm counting on it'll work itself out eventually.

    Power down your device and turn it back on.

    That doesn't work. I am also on German App Store and have the same problem as reported that while update is displayed in app details it doesn't show on the update tab

    I'm based in the UK and having that issue so I don't think it's restricted to any particular country. I've tried killing the app, killing App Store, rebooting, pretty much everything and still can't upgrade. I guess it's just a case of waiting it out now.

    @kepa There is a massive glitch that ruins runs. It's where most of the magical projectiles lose part of there animation, while some don't have any at all. It can sure make the game interesting at times, but it's awful when this starts happening 3/4 through a run and there's no way to stop it. That last boss is hard!

    I also cannot update the app. It shows version 1.10 but it doesn't allow me to update. US App Store.

    those are apple issues, not WS update issues. Sometimes you'll be able to update in a fews hours, sometimes a few days, i've even had times when it wouldn't let me update at all. you don't want to uninstall/reinstall because you'll lose your save data.

    kinda sucks, but i'm not sure if there is an actual fix for it. Maybe try downloading the update via iTunes then syncing?

    Sometimes it helps if I switch to another store.... If you have a CA or NZ account, try signing into those then back into your US account. You might be able to update then.

    Same thing happened to me with Miss Claire Garden, Mass Effect and again when trying to update Shadowgun...

    Can you post a video/pics of the final boss? It seems like i'll never get up to it, so it would be cool to see what it looks like

    update 1.1

    Hi, i'm on German Store too. this morning i couldn't get the update either
    my fix was to delete the App from iTune (not the one on your device)
    then redownload it again. the iTune will have the new version

    then sync .. that worked for me


    hope it helps

    Is this working correctly? It seems like the timing is sometimes off but sometimes isn't?

    Update troubles

    So i updated the App on iPhone 5 this morning without a problem.
    Turns out i had the same problem like others here to update it on iPad 2.

    I downloaded the update to iTunes, connected iPad to iTunes and it synced only for a minute even though i haven´t done that in ages and was happily downloading games to the iPad in the past without having them in iTunes.

    Turns out, i have the updated version now on my iPad. I just went to options and i have a setting for swipe sensitivity which came with the update.

    BOTTOM LINE: Check settings in Wayward Souls, maybe you got the update in some weird, stealthy way too :)

    Nope. Still got the old version 1.0 on my iPhone and iPad.

    I haven't backed up my iDevices at all, other than via iCloud, so I know from experience that it takes hours to do it your way, because there's no way to sync apps individually, and I've got multiple gigabytes that iTunes insist to sync from my iPad.

    I absolutely hate iTunes.
    In my mind, iTunes stands as the complete opposite of the user friendly iDevices and iOS.
