Is it me ? My son has an iphone, I have captivate. When I play a word he gets a notification pretty much instantly. I on the other hand don't. It's it just the app itself on my phone ? I need to open the app and it needs to refresh, too long sometimes. Any ideas ?

I donno the apps history, but if it was an iphone app that they ported over then the devs might not have fully optimized it for android yet.

its a known issue, they are working on it. I think it had something to do with being compatible with 1.6(no push notification support)
Many here may not have known or used WWF on iphone, but I used it from day one. WWF was very buggy on iPhone (way worse then it is now). The servers would get all jacked up, and it would take hours sometimes for a game move. Making it cross platform also brought up a new set of challenges for them.
Your best bet is just deal with it for now and wait, or use a different word game. It will get better though.
