The Simpsons: Tapped Out is a free game for iOS, developed and published by Electronic Arts, first released on February 17, 2012. The game consists of the player helping Homer and other characters to rebuild Springfield. The game features the original cast. An Android version of Tapped Out is planned, but not in the makings yet.[1] On March 3, 2012, due to connectivity problems, Tapped Out was removed from the App Store.[2] As of April 22, 2012, EA is still resolving issues with the game.[3] According to EA in an interview, Tapped Out will be re-released later on in the year.[4] In mid-June 2012, EA took the game offline to fix the server, and to fix the Springfields which experienced problems.Cite error: Closing </ref> missing for <ref> tag

On February 17, 2012, the free Tapped Out app appeared on the Sweden, Singapore, Norway, Denmark and Finland's App Stores. It was later added to Canada, the United Kingdom and several other countries, with the United States recieving the game last. On March 1, the reaction to the app being released in the United States was so overwhelming, that it created connection problems.[5]On March 3, 2012, three days after the US release, the app was removed from every App Store (with the exception of the Canada app store; the game was removed later), so "to make sure you current players have the best possible experience".[6]

Most connection problems have been fixed since then, but the bugs were the main problem with the downloaders of the game. Tons of bugs were reported on the Tapped Out forum, mostly reported was the "DC while loading friends city bug".
