Original story (published on January 31, 2022) follows:

Disney Emoji Blitz is a popular matching game for the little ones in the house and the casual crowd. It uses as a base the recognizable faces of the most iconic figures of the company throughout its history.

However, in the last few hours, the game is suffering from an issue that makes it unplayable. There is an error message that appears while trying to open it, wich gets Emoji Blitz stuck.

The error message in question is ‘Restart to download content’. Having said the above, there is a potential workaround that should help resolve it (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9).

Disney Emoji Blitz ‘Restart to download content’ error

According to multiple reports, the error started appearing just a few hours ago. Apparently, Disney Emoji Blitz detects that downloadable content is available and makes you restart the game to download it.

But, after restarting it, Disney Emoji Blitz shows the same ‘Restart to download content’ error message again. So, the process becomes a loop with no way out.

Has anyone else been having issues all day? I have restarted the app, updated it, restarted my phone- and I’ve still been receiving this message all day. I just want to be able to connect in time for my daily prize! How frustrating! 🥺😢

Disney Emoji Blitz players are complaining that there are currently events going on in the game, which are time limited, and they are not being able to comply due to not accessing the game.

Try this workaround

Considering the above situation, many Disney Emoji Blitz players have been unable to access the game for many hours, and looking for a way to solve the problem.

However, having said the above, some managed to find a workaround. This reportedly helps to access Disney Emoji Blitz again without suffering from the annoying persistent ‘Restart to download content’ error message.

Basically, instead of opening the game from the icon on the phone, the user must open it directly from the App Store. This way they can bypass the issue.
