I wish I could zoom easier to paint specific shapes easier and I found a glitch if you change the rule to S. 8. And B. 3,4,5, 8 random total extinction some times occurs and it looks like its for no reason.

Loved the lock unlock feature so you can zoom and move and the fact you can zoom in without deleting what you've been working on can, can I delete single cells? Without having to start all over, generation counter would be good,

I can't place dots where I want them. Frequentlyy the game places the dots slightly off from where I click and with no undo or erase option, I can't create glider guns or any other cool designs.

the game broke! I could not watch any ads or start a new game. (Request) Please make it so you can add your own boxes!

Too bad it crashes all the time. I'd give it five stars if bugs were fixed and either the settings menu was more user friendly (there's really no point in having lots of different settings screens with one or two settings on each! - why not combine them into one screen?), or at least the changing of survival / birth rules was accessible directly from the game UI.

Problems with touch, though, my phone works fine with everything else.
