How to Get More Lives on Candy Crush

Buying Lives

Click on the “More Lives Now” Option when faced with the “No More Lives” screen. This is the option to buy more lives from Candy Crush using your credit card or other connected payment method.

Click on the “$0.99” button to buy lives. Depending on your mobile platform (iOS or Android), you will be connected to the store via the app to approve this purchase. Remember, this option costs money.

Asking Friends

Connect your Facebook account. Asking friends for life is only possible if your Facebook account is connected to Candy Crush. Click on the connect button on the Candy Crush home screen.

Allow Candy Crush to post to your friends on your behalf. This will allow the game to contact your friends when you want more lives, or boosters, but will not post status updates on your behalf. This will also sync your gameplay with your Facebook account so you can play Candy Crush on Facebook as well and still see the progress synced with your phone app.You will see the following three screens after you give permission.

Ask your friends to gift you extra lives. Once you’ve gone through the process of connecting your Facebook and Candy Crush account, you need to click on the "Ask Friends" button to get them to send you extra lives when you run out.

Choose the friends who want to ask. You’ll see a page giving you a list of your Facebook friends. Choose the ones you want to ask for extra lives. Remember that you can’t have more than 5 lives at a time, so there’s no need to ask 20 people as you won’t be able to use all those lives together. It’s more recommended to ask a few friends at a time, rather than spamming their accounts with requests every day.

Unlimited Lives in Candy Crush

Go to Settings > General > Date & Time. The trick simply moves your phone’s times a few hours ahead so you can get the free lives, then back (this is important), before you actually start playing.

Move the time on your phone a few hours ahead.You have to turn off the option to set time automatically for this. It’s easier to go one day or one month forward, as it’s simpler to change days or months as opposed to moving the hour counter. In this example we’ve gone one day forward.

Go back to the game. You’ll see you have full lives. Don’t start playing just yet. Go back to Settings > General > Date & Time and fix the time. It’s easiest to set time to “Set automatically” as it will use your carrier to determine the correct time and automatically adjust.
