May we please get rid of the obtrusive HeyZap bar?

**Samhayne** · 12-03-2011, 04:14 PM

Guys, please no Jailbreak how-to's, ok? Thanks.

As for Hayzap, it is only supposed to pop up on first load, not when you multitask. The team was working on correcting that on Friday. I'm not sure if it requires a client update or not. I'll have more info on Monday. Thanks for the feedback and for keeping it constructive!

No more discussing jailbreaking. I just got an infraction point over this!?! Extremely unhappy about it atm. So I'll just stop posting for now :/

PHAR! :O You're back <3

Back on topic, I also find the tips quite unnecessary for higher levels who know what they are doing. I think there should be an option to turn these off.

Also, I have found that it pops up after merely locking & unlocking my iPhone, without exiting the app or going to the home screen.

Heyzap also seems to cost me MANY app crashes. This is why I can't multi task the majority of the time.

Did anyone else pick up on that... "working on correcting that on Friday..." does that mean new content is coming out Friday?

"Was working on correcting that on Friday" It happened in the past.

No worries, I stumbled over it myself.

I don't have a Heyzap Account. Don't want an account either. I spend money on PL. I want the option to remove the add asking me to sign up for a service I do not want in a game I pay money for. I did not sign up for adds. And as far as I am concerned it is guerilla marketing. Forcing some one to become part of something they don't want so that a company can increase it's revenue from outside the games income.

I love how it pops up notifications when im not playing STS games. I cant find the garbage app to delete it.

We cant talk about JB. Then tell me how to delete something you make us download. I download PL or SL. I didnt want to download some spam garbage app with it.
I would like to see STS use this extra space to make some new zones. The new updates all look like old stuff used over again.

If it makes them money. It is here to stay.

Its SlingLabs advertising push notifications sdk built into the app, or something similar. There's nothing to delete, and it didn't download heyzap as far as I know on anyone's device. It can't do that without your express consent. Of course, it could have asked and notified you of it when you updated, but who reads those permissions anyway.

I hope that isn't the case, as it's a dirty trick I wouldn't expect from one of my favorite devs.

I'm totally with you Apollo!

Thanks for telling STS, because really it's very annoying. I thk I had paid like more than $200 worth In platinum on star legends only so far. I can't believe They did this to us.

Space-time studios, please remove HeyZap whatever it is cuz i don't like it, pocket legends and star legends feels now like any freeware app from the market.

Bad move sTs , we already paid for platinum, no need to bother us with crappy adds from crappy apps, Hey Zap is worthless app we just don't need it.

**Luellasky** · 12-04-2011, 11:42 AM

AGREED!!.... its really bugging me also

**Cahaun** · 12-04-2011, 11:43 AM

I found the solution! I killed the tapjoy sign! (Though I wasn't able to sign in lol) I'll type the solution out real quick.

**helpguy** · 12-04-2011, 11:46 AM

Agreed

**Cahaun** · 12-04-2011, 11:47 AM

Ok here it is:
1. Download "Batteryguard"
2. Run the program
3. Select the HeyZap program
4. Press the "Kill Task" button
Problem solved

I can confirm that it pops up when you switch characters, when ever I head to main menu, when I allow phone to go to sleep and open it back up. So pretty much any time I am not actually in a map. This combined with the deal of the day auto pop up, I just don't know what to say. It's like removing your pop up blocker on a web browser and being assaulted by adds. Not something I would expect from STS.

iOS or Android.

**Cahaun** · 12-04-2011, 11:54 AM

I used android and it works. Is "Batteryguard" in the IOS app store?

I don't know that is why I asked what platform you were using. I don't think there is any way, unless you jailbreak an iOS device, to close down specific functions.
