Call of Duty Mobile is finally available on Android and iOS, and it’s off to a slightly rocky start. Multiple users are reporting the Call of Duty Mobile not loading or being stuck on the opening screen. If you’re one of those users, here’s what you can do to temporarily fix it.
The game has been downloaded a million times in less than 24 hours, and it’s no wonder the game is running into these issues.
Call of Duty Mobile Not Loading Fix
Multiple users have reported that they can’t get past the opening loading screen shown below
For now, there is no concrete fix for the problem, but here are a few things you can do.
- Force close your application and relaunch it. Multiple users have confirmed that after a few relaunches, the game eventually starts working.
- Check your internet connection and make sure you are connected to a stable WiFi network.
- Restart your device, and try running the game again.
- Update your device through the mobile’s settings.
- Update Call of Duty mobile through the play store.
- Try restarting your WiFi modem and running the game after that.
- Clear the game’s cache from the Application Settings.
- Check the system requirements (listed below), and make sure your mobile device is supported.
After you’ve tried these temporary fixes, you will be greeted with the following screen with a loading bar, like shown below
You might get a Cod Mobile Update restarting message, but that’s just a sign that the game is finally going to start working eventually, and you’ve made it into the servers.
There’s a chance you’ll run into the CoDM Update Failed Error Message as well, but fret not, as following the first step should get you in the game eventually.
The game launched yesterday without any major issues, but as the server load has increased, it’s clear that there’s still some need for server tuning to be done by Activision.
Activision’s Response
Activision has acknowledged the server issues being experienced by players, and have confirmed that they are working on resolving these as soon as possible.
