Words With Friends on Nokia 1520 Video Demonstration

[w4rmk]

I am disappointed that Words With Friends is unusable on the 1520. I created a YouTube video to demonstrate how bad it is and also in the hopes that Zynga might take some action to update the application and stop stealing $2.99 from buyers for an app that doesn't function.

Even when it worked it was awful. Zynga needs to step up & fix it.

First of all.. rotate your phone..

Second, have you tried uninstalling it and reinstalling it?

That being said, I can understand your frustration...

Zynga has been HORRIBLE.

Rotate my phone? I just tried that and WWF doesn't go landscape, so not sure what you are asking here.
Just un-installed and re-installed, no difference, crashed within 3 seconds after running the re-installed game.

I'm glad I retired from that game even before I got my 920. lol

I think he wanted you to record the video 16:9 sideways so there was more viewing angle...not turn the 1520 but the phone using to record the video.

Oh, ok, I see. I figured portrait phone should be a portrait video.

Portrait video is something that should almost never be used. All it does is limit the viewing area of a video and make shooting that video harder to frame.

WWF on Windows Phone has been garbage since it's release. Haven't paid any mind to Zynga since deleting it from my phone.

@w4rmk

I used to play WWF but as you show, it is so badly optimised for WP8 that I too stopped playing it. Not a peek from Zynga either though their iOS & Android version get regular updates. I've since moved on to the game "Angry Words" which is more or less the same game with similar gameplay, speedier loading and a better chat facility. Also it's free.
