Why is there a buddy on my candy crush game? I don't know this person

So I play candy crush on my iphone… Not through facebook. Which means I don't have friends on candy crush. About two weeks ago, another icon sat next to mine and I don't know who it is… When I pass a level, this person passes the level too… And the individual gives me extra life as well… It creeps me out because I don't know who it is… I almost feel like I'm being stalked. Has this ever happened to anyone?

Yes this is also happening to my mom, honestly I think this is just a glitch, nothing to worry about, and just enjoy your free lives ^^

Btw if you want free boosters, go to and follow the instructions given there.

I don't want a Candy Crush buddy! How to I play without one?

Don't want a candy crush buddy please eliminate.

  • Why does my daily booster wheel not work in Candy Crush? The daily Booster wheel icon is present and when I click on it the wheel launches, but the wheel is dark grey and will not spin. When I close the wheel and try to launch it again it tells me to come back later for another spin. The game is on my iPhone and is not linked to my Facebook, nor do I want it to be. Does anyone know why this is happening?
