Note: Yup, the update is still not available on iOS. Happens sometimes. May be a bug with it, could be Apple holding it up…at this point it’s available on Android and Amazon. EA typically releases updates for all 3 markets at the same time, and then it’s up to each App Store to approve them, some move slower than others. (which is why Amazon is often late) This has happened with other games as well (see TQFS)…unfortunately just a little patience is required. Hopefully it’ll hit iOS soon….
NOTE FROM PATRIC- I was one of you…no iOS. It landed this morning. HOWEVER…it didn’t just “show up.” I needed to shut down my device completely…as in all the way off, not just clicking the screen. Shut. Down. Then go into the app store…and do a search for “The Simpsons Tapped Out.” That finally brought up the new updated screen. Please try that before you write, reinstall, or freak out any further…Thanks!!
Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
Check your app stores because there’s an update on our hands!
And i’m actually pleasantly surprised by EA…as a nice touch they’ve added Turkeys to the Splash Screen and Icon….i don’t recall them doing that ever unless it was for a major event.
Two thumbs up with that EA, good job and a nice touch.
And of course, as you may have guessed, this leads right into the Thanksgiving mini-event! No waiting!
I’ve got a LOT going on at work right now, so I’ll fully update this post later. But for now know that you’ll need to complete Lisa’s first 6s task and that will launch the mini-event…
Now let’s go into more details….
So, this is a pretty standard Mini-Event. Follow tasks to unlock stuff…
One thing I will note is it does look like we’ll see some Black Friday Specials. A WHOLE lot of items and Mystery Boxes will be coming. Just a heads up.
A few important dates:
As of now…always subject to change from EA

I’ll work on some posts for both as they get closer….
Now let’s break down this event….
