Four in a Row running in the Little Rivals iPhone app

Four in a Row

Get four in a row before your opponent.

Orange has three pieces along the bottom row. One more piece completes four in a row, and the app celebrates the win.

A few things you might want to know

Still have a question? Email us at support@littlerivals.app.

What can we play?

Four in a Row, Tic-tac-toe, Dots & Boxes, and Pocket Fleet all support games with friends. Word Duel is a solo word game, with a fresh daily puzzle too.

Can I play on my own?

Yes. Play any of the four board games against Moss, the computer opponent. Pick Relaxed while you learn or Clever for more of a challenge. Word Duel is also there when you feel like playing solo.

How do I add a friend?

Open Friends, tap Add friend, and enter their exact username. Once they accept your request, pick a game and send them a challenge.

Do we need two phones?

Yes. Each player uses their own iPhone and account for games with friends. Little Rivals does not have a pass-and-play mode on one phone.

Do I have to sign in with Apple?

No, you can start as a guest. If you want to keep the account, connect it to Apple in Settings. A guest username alone cannot restore access if you sign out or lose the saved sign-in on your phone.

What if I leave halfway through a game?

You can come back to it. Leaving a game or closing the app does not forfeit an online match. Open it again to load the latest board. Practice rounds are saved on the phone where you started them.

Do I need an internet connection?

You need a connection to sign in, add friends, and play online. Moss and solo word puzzles run on your phone, but reopening the app may still require a connection to check your sign-in.

How does the daily word work?

You get a five-letter word to solve in six guesses. Everyone gets the same word for that date. Once you finish, you can compare your result with friends without revealing the answer on the leaderboard.

Can I change my character?

Yes. Open Settings and choose Your little character. Pick a preset or mix the bodies, faces, hands, and colors to make your own.

Can I turn notifications off?

Yes. Choose which reminders and game alerts you want in the app’s notification settings, or turn notifications off entirely in iOS Settings.
