    You know people are not concerned about a thing except if they face a problem. I had no concern about this issue before I start having problems, but the game has a big security issues.

    1- I changed my gmail password password, but I am still able to log onto my account without signing my password since the game is installed my phone.

    2-I sign out from apple id and game-center. Same as google+ the game asks for my gamecenter log in, but if I hit cance I am able to play the game since the game is installed to my ipad.

    So if your device is stolen or if your phone is changed under-warranty as in my example; the person who capture your device can play the game as long as he/she doesn't unistall the game. And the down-side of it is that he/she doesn't need to know your password. This is a huge security problem in my opinion. The game should ask your password at least if you change your password.

    It's a game, not the codes to launch nuclear missiles.

    I can't think of any iOS games out there that are individually password protected. Linking to GameCenter / Google+ is not a security measure, but a kind provision to protect your game if you do lose your device or get a new one. It would be unfortunate if that provision didn't exist. MANY games do not have such a way to essentially back up your game progress, even across devices.

    Your device itself has a security password, so if your device is lost or stolen and they get around that main password (or you were foolish not to set one or require one) than you have FAR bigger issues than them having access to some *game*.

    It doesn't have to be nuclear missiles or atomic bomb to improve a security. Isn't there a security process to buy gems? You can't buy gems infinite gems with one payment can you? But you can have infinite access to the game once you install the game to a device. So the securities can be improved there is no question about it.

    Let me be the first one to tell you that thieves are the best ♥♥♥♥ers for passwords. So one of the most popular game company should work imroving its game's securities in my opinion for its users. And the comment like yours are not encouraging them to do so.

    That's because gems are done through apple or Google. NOT SC. The security is fine as it is. We should have better guards.

    Well as I already said: people are not concerned about a thing except if they face a problem. I am guessing you don't have any issues like mine. Even if when your credit card are stolen; you can change it by disabling your stolen card and you recieve a new one with the same privilages. As it is already said this is not a nuclear missile and I should be able to reset the game from all the installed devices and retrieve it again. This shouldn't be a space science for supercell.

    There is a huge difference between a credit card and a game. If it was possible I would place bets on SC already having that done but on THEIR end.

    Your forgetting that the person who has your village could also press that button - then you would be hopeless.

    Security settings are security settings. There is no difference between a credit card and a game. Both are security settings; one for credit card and the other for the game. And SC, google+ or apple should improve this feature. I already spent 6 months for this game, I know people who spend more than a year. As I said your device could have been stolen or you could be careless. My point is that you don't have anything to do by the time you figure out that your account has been compromised. It is your village, your account; you might make a mistake; and either SC, apple or Google should help you by the time you understand you made a mistake.


    If the banks work with same attitude; credit card ♥♥♥♥ers could cause you to be bankrupt. Imagine a bank would tell you that they have nothing to do after your credit card are being compromised.


    Of course the effects are a lot different, but the process are the same for a bank and a game companies.

    The difference is it isn't possible for SC to randomly disable accounts from working on specific devices. If you think it is then pleas click here.
