To invite friends in Vita Mahjong, open the game to the main lobby, access the share option directly from the screen or via the Settings menu, and send an installation link through your device's native share sheet.
Inviting a friend does not create a live multiplayer lobby or a joint match. Vita Mahjong is a solo tile-matching puzzle game, so the invitation feature functions as an external sharing tool that directs your contacts to the game's official app store page.
How to Send an Invitation Link
The invitation system generates a pre-formatted message containing an official store link for Android or iOS.
- Launch Vita Mahjong and wait for the primary lobby screen to appear.
- Locate the Share or Invite icon on the main interface. If no dedicated social icon is visible, tap the Settings gear icon.
- Select the Invite Friends or Share with Friends button to open your device's native operating system share tray.
- Choose how to deliver the link:
- Messaging Apps: Send the link directly through SMS, WhatsApp, Messenger, or Telegram.
- Email: Open a draft email containing the link to send to contacts playing on tablets or other devices.
- Copy Link: Copy the raw URL to paste into group chats or social feeds.
- Tap Send in your chosen app to deliver the link.
When the recipient taps the link, their device opens the Google Play Store or Apple App Store directly to the Vita Mahjong installation page.
Troubleshooting Common Sharing Issues
If the share prompt fails or the recipient cannot access the game, use this reference table to resolve the problem:
| Issue | Likely Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Share sheet does not open | Temporary OS glitch or low system memory | Restart the game or reboot your mobile device to clear memory. |
| Invite button missing | Outdated application version | Open your app store and update Vita Mahjong to the latest release. |
| Link loads a blank page | Browser configuration error on the recipient's phone | Have the recipient copy the URL directly into Chrome or Safari. |
| Cannot install the game | Incompatible operating system version | Confirm the recipient's device meets the store listing's OS requirements. |
If the in-game button remains unresponsive, have your friends manually search for "Vita Mahjong" by Vita Studio in their device's app marketplace.
How Social Features Work in Vita Mahjong
Vita Mahjong does not include real-time multiplayer, competitive ranked lobbies, or direct tile trading. All boards are played independently.
Players who want to play socially must organize manual comparisons:
- Daily Challenge Comparisons: Because daily puzzles provide the exact same tile layout to all players on that date, you can compare completion times, remaining moves, and star ratings with friends.
- Stage Progression Races: You and a friend can start the same numbered campaign stage simultaneously to see who clears the board first without using the Undo or Shuffle assistance tools.
