Fix "Conflict Versions" Error in Flex City
If you can't quit passive mode or can't access competition modes in Flex City, you're likely running into the "conflict versions" error. This usually happens when the game detects that you're not playing through an official, verified installation.
The good news is that this issue is easy to identify and fix once you know the cause.
Common Causes and Fixes
Reason 1: You Are Playing Using an Emulator
Emulators are not officially supported, and Google Play can flag your session as a version conflict.
Fix: Download the official game from the [Google Play Store]( Google Play) using your mobile device. Alternatively, read our guide on how to play Flex City on PC using [Google Play Games](How To Download And Play Flex City On PC), which is the officially supported way to play on a computer.
Reason 2: You Are Using a Non-Official APK
Installing Flex City from an unofficial APK file instead of the Google Play Store can also trigger this error.
Fix: Uninstall the unofficial version and download the game from the official Google Play Store.
Other Possible Causes
The error can also occur when your account activity can't be evaluated because a necessary requirement was missed. This can happen for several reasons, including:
- The device is not trustworthy enough.
- The version of your app installed on the device is unknown to Google Play.
- The user is not signed in to Google Play.
- The user does not have the necessary license for accessing the app.
