The Game Center app
If your friends aren't hard-core gamers, you can use Game Center's Auto Match feature to find
opponents you don't know who are also looking for a game.
Only apps compatible with Apple's social gaming network work with Game Center; there's a
handy Find Game Center Games in the Game Center app that lists Game Center-ready titles in the
App Store. All your games compatible with Game Center are also listed in the Game Center app.
Game Center also provides leaderboard information for games, so you can see how you match up
with the rest of the world.
If you use the same game on both an iOS device and your Mac, many games will allow you to ac-
cess the same Game Center account so you can play multiplayer games and set high scores on any of
your devices.
To use Game Center, you first need to be signed in to the Game Center app on all your devices.
That's all some games need, but others will require you sign in to them when you launch the app.
Then you want to invite friends to play with you. Here's how:
1. Launch the Game Center app from your iOS device or Mac.
2. Enter your Apple ID and password to login.
3. Tap the Friends button at the bottom of the window to view your friends and recommenda-
tions.
4. Tap the Requests button at the bottom of the window.
