Quick fixes
- Close Shut Up Fly, then open it again.
- Make sure the iPhone is not in Silent Mode and turn the volume up if buzzing or effects are missing.
- Open Settings > Apps > Shut Up Fly and allow Camera and Motion access for the complete fly-sense experience.
- If a permission was changed while the game was open, restart the game.
- Install the latest available version of iOS and the latest Shut Up Fly update.
Why does the game ask for sensors?
Flies react to movement, device motion, and the player's approach. Camera frames and motion signals are processed live on the iPhone. Camera images are never recorded, saved, or transmitted by the app. The game does not use the microphone.
My taps are not landing
Tap the visible fly directly and move quickly once you are close. The fly may escape if it senses an approach. If every tap appears offset, restart the game and make sure Display Zoom or an accessibility touch setting has not just changed while the game is running.
Progress and leaderboards
Level progress, stars, settings, local scores, and the local Hall of Fame are stored on the iPhone. Shut Up Fly also supports optional online leaderboards through Apple Game Center. When you are signed into Game Center, eligible scores may be submitted to and displayed by Apple. Deleting Shut Up Fly removes its local game data; scores previously submitted to Game Center may remain associated with your Apple Game Center account.
Game Center troubleshooting
- Open Settings > Game Center.
- Confirm that the player is signed in.
- Reopen Shut Up Fly.
- Game Center availability and score display are operated by Apple.
Optional weapon rewards
Choose an available optional weapon offer in the Junkyard Picture Show. A completed rewarded ad can earn one use of the displayed weapon. Ads need internet and may not always be available. Leaving before the ad provider awards the reward does not grant a weapon. You can return to ordinary play without watching.
Reward limits and presentation differ by version. Follow the available count and limit shown in your app. See release details for the current release.
Please do not delete the app as a troubleshooting step: deleting it removes local progress. Contact us first.
