IOS version

The **iOS version** of Bitlife is the original version of the app. It debuted on September 29, 2018. It is known to have a significant amount of greater features than the android version of Bitlife, but the developers claim to be working to catch up the Android version. It was last updated in May 2020.

In the iOS version of Bitlife, you can interact with co-workers and classmates, and you can have more options for the family such as having step-families, being adopted as a baby, men being able to impregnate more women at once, or having twins and triplets.

Also, in the iOS version, you can travel back in time, which only Canadian exclusive people of the Bitlife community can get. In July 2019, it was updated so anyone in any place can time travel.

The reason for these changes is that Candywriter was intended for iOS only before popular demand made the app available for Android. However Android updates have been resolved faster thanks to new developers being hired for Candywriter. In late October 2018, the Haunted update has been added to Android before iOS. Some bugs have not been patched on Android despite being patched on iOS, such as money being taken away when gambling at Casino and Horse Races whereas before the Bank Balance stayed the same until winning or losing.
