Description of App
How will you live your BitLife?
Will you try to make all the right choices in an attempt to become a model citizen sometime before you die? You could marry the man/woman of your dreams, have kids, and pick up a good job along the way.
Or will you make choices that horrify your parents? You could descend into a life of crime, start prison riots, smuggle duffle bags, and cheat on your spouse.
It's all up to you...

Becoming famous
So I'm playing and I'm a magician and I got a pop up saying that I'm famous 20 percent. How do I boost it to 100 and what are the things to do when famous? I'm only seeing that I could post to social media but not sure if there's anything else to do. Thanks.
Once you become famous, a new
Once you become famous, a new option called fame should appear in your activities. You can do lots of things, like write books or be on talk shows or commercials, and they will boost your fame. Your fame also naturally increases and decreases over time
Thanks and
I only bought the remove adds feature but looked like they changed something. When I shared a link to join social media I closed it out and went back to the game later and I couldn't post anything. It asked if I wanted to share to join social media again. I clicked out of it.
Question
How do I get the lawyer job? Is it community colledge, then university political science or finance then graduate school? Or is it the other way around? Another question is when I took drugs at the nightclub and I applied for an interview they said I failed my drug test but I went in to rehab and I wasn't suffering from anything or addicted to anything so was wondering how that came up.
Military expansion is coming
In the next update, they are going to add tons of new stuff. One of the things they’re going to add is a more interactive military career. There’s going to be a Minesweeper minnygame and I believe there will be other minnygames added as well.
Great
Looking forward to that I can't wait. I wished if they added some crimes for high school in the future.
A less clunky interface?
So apparently another thing they’re going to add in the update is a setting called power user mode. It’s supposed to make the interface faster to navigate.
Not too excited about the mini games
In this game, mini games usually means inaccessibility. Hopefully it will be better this time, but I will feel much better once everything is here and confirmed.
Inaccessibility
The only ones I think are inaccessible are the home burglary and the prison escape. The thing is I don't know of a way to tell the devs to make it accessible because if they put in hints they the escape would be easy or they could have it by luck and chance like tap on escape prison and it could be either you get caught or you are free instead of the puzzle and the home burglary could be like that as well either you get caught or don't. If someone has twitter and think this could work please send this off to the bitlife devs.
I actually
I actually have an idea on how the burglary in prison escape could be accessible. When you are going to escape prison or tdo burglary, a pop-up would ask you if you are a voiceover user and if you answered yes, you wouldn’t have to do the puzzle.
Sounds good
I think that's a fair way to play the inaccessible minigames. I hope they are receptive to it.
The update is here and i have a problem.
I've noticed that the Time Machine is an in app purchase. My question is this. Do we have to pay every time we want to travel, or is it just a one time purchase?
Have to check that out
Will check that out but I think that might be a one time purchase. I will watch biju mike and see if he does a review on it and maybe I might know something. He always does bitlife videos on his youtube.
I found out
You will need to pay everytime to use the machine.
My fear is also confirmed.
Military mini games is also inaccessible.
Oh wow
I almost bought the time machine thank god I didn't. I finally bought the bitizenship. I didn't want to but it started to get annoying when I wanted to use the social media. Eventually the military games should become accessible. Now we could give gifts to our family I love that and we could also make love to our partner which I wanted from the start. I'm not finding the thing with the birth control. I will finish this life quick and start over another one.
Turn on
Turn on power user in the settings. It gets rid of all those annoying descriptions that make going to the activities tab a pain. It also gets rid of some other stuff.
Yes and
I have mines set to that and I think the app works a bit faster than the last version.
This is kind of a stupid
This is kind of a stupid question, but I noticed on the update notes it said you can spend time with all relationships at once. Does anyone know how to do this? I was looking around the menus for it and I feel like it's probably super obvious and I'm just missing it.
Answer
It’s not a stupid question, it took me forever to find it. If you go down past all the relationships, you will find something that says spend time. Click on that and you’ll be able to spend time with everyone.
I saw it
I saw that and I think its a good idea instead of doing it one by one now they should have the same thing for like conversations and if you want to give money or gifts you could select who you want to in one shot. And a suggestion if anyone could pass this on to them is I think there should be a drug-store where you could buy stuff and keep it on you for example like vitamins and other things so if you have a headache or a soar throat or what ever, instead of going to the doctor every minute, the stuff you buy should be there on the main screen and the person could take it when the pop up comes up saying you have some kind of ailnment.
Something to remember
You will also need to be at least 12 years of age in order to unlock the option to spend time with all.
Oh that's probably why, I'm
Oh that's probably why, I'm 18 now and I just saw the comments and tried looking again, now I see it.
A few questions
Hey all, I just wanted to start off by saying i’m new to the site and i just came across this thread. So sorry if these questions are stupid.
So I’ve been playing BitLife for a wild now and i was wondering how do you all play? For example, when i play, i spend time/have conversations with everybody in my relationships tab including my animals, study/work harder, every year. And every 4 years i go to the gym, library, meditate, get waxed, go tanning, and cut/get my hair done.I know this is really tedious and overall, it gets boring after awhile. Occasionally, i’ll play the lottery or go out to clubs. And i’ve read of people completing 9 or 10 lives and it takes them only a few weeks to finish a life. And on the other hand, my last life that i completed took me about a little over 2 and a half months and i’m barely on my 4th or 5th one lol. I didn’t play every day for 2 months, it was more like every 2 or 3 days. So any tips that i can use to speed up my life Would be helpful.
My second question is that have any of you lost a life after updating the game when a new release comes out? Because i always have but my last character didn’t get lost after i updated the app. And i’ve read all the new stuff that just came out and i really want to update but the person i’m currently playing became a lawyer and i’m making bank and i don’t want to loose that lol. But i was like 1 or 2 in the game, so i don’t know if that has anything to do with it.
And my last and final question is what’s instlife? I’ve read and heard that bitlife is working on some big update that supposed to merge with instlife. I’ve looked on the appstore but couldn’t find anything.
I’d really appreciate any answers. Sorry if this came out to be an eternity.
I'll answer 2 of your questions.
To be honest, I guess it all depends on what you wish to gain in your life. I've played the game so many times that I am now finishing one life in but a few minutes. I love smart characters, so i usually try to max out my smarts. This will allow doctors and lawyers and music composers to do maximum effort in their jobs, earning them great promotions. I personally don't really waste time on relationships. They are optional and their benefits is not always guaranteed. When Love comes my way, i usually just age up and see where it takes me, for better or worse. In the first few updates, we lost our progress. However, this seems to have been fixed.
I finish
I played the game so much I finish a life with 15 to 30 minutes because the relationships are borring to say the least. So I just age up and what ever pops up I treat it accordingly. I'm trying to get the lawyer job and I still can't get it. Because when I choose to go to university the major I want sometimes never pop up and I'm not sure if I could choose more than one at a time.
You can always cheat lol.
When you graduate from high school, don't pick a major just yet. Choose the option that says college is not for me. Now go back to the occupation tab and select education and go to university. See what available majors there are. If your desired major is not available, just close the app and reopen it, then go back to occupation/education/university. Repeat these steps until your desired major becomes available.
O ok thx
O ok thx so much. I’ll start ignoring the relationships tab to see what I get. Wow! 15 to 30 minutes that’s really fast. The relationships Can come in handy when necessary. For example the character I’m currently on has high smarts but for some reason when I would apply for a scholarship to University, I wouldn’t get excepted and my mom paid for university, grad school, and law school, because my relationship with her was at 100 And to get the lawyer job, I don’t know if this is any help but when you pick a major, look for political science, then once you graduate university go to grad school, and after grad school you go to law school. I don’t know if that’s any help but that’s what I did. And closing out the app, that’s what I do when I’m looking for a house and I can’t find the one I want or when I get a disease.
One more question
Before I forget, I have one more question. Does anyone know how to become famous? I’ve tried it on previous lives but I couldn’t get it so I just gave up on it.
Famous
Thanks Dm I will do that. And to answer the famous question you would probably need to get a job that would actually get you famous like an acter or singer or something like that. I became a famous magician. Then when I was close to 90 years old my fame went away. lol
Re, famous
How did you become a magician? Did you get a pop-up? Or did you choose it from the list of full time jobs? Because when I would look at the list, there’s no listing for an actor/singer or other occupations I can think of that would achieve fame.
full time
Sometimes if you don't get the jobs you want you have to refresh the list. I didn't know the magician would make me be famous but after some years working a pop up showed that I became famous and then I got to do other things in the activities tab like write books do commercials and tv interviews. Plus I got free drinks at the bar. It was fun. lol
Magician
What qualifications do you need for a magician? They wouldn't except me.
None.
I don't think any because I tapped on it and it accepted me. I will check it over again. But what does it say in the job requirement?
is the bitisenship
Hello. Is the bitisenship worth purchasing?
I think it was just high school
Maybe my stats wasn't right.
I think
Hi, I think it’s worth purchasing. I got it. You don’t have to share when signing up for social media and you don’t have to deal with those annoying ads every time you do an action in the game. And I’m not too sure but some features, like pets, require you to have a bitizenship. But it’s totally up to you.
magician
I'm trying to remember. But I think I studied something in colledge for it. Probably theater or arts. Now I'm playing the game kind of on the slow way. I'm spending time with everyone all at once and buying gifts for everyone and what I'm noticing is that they are more appreciative of the most expensive gifts. Lol. Question, how to get the porn acter job? I never see that in my list. Or I don't refresh the list often but I got the porn set janitor a few times.
Porn Actor
The job listings refresh every year so if you keep checking back you might eventually be able to apply. If the porn cameraman job opens up apply for that because you will most likely be promoted to actor. Also, not seeking higher education after graduating high school will help more fame based careers pop up. If you go to school, you are more likely to get jobs that are suitable for someone with your degree.
Thanks and
Thanks and one more question which I forgot to ask. Study harder and work harder. I had low smarts and when I tap on study harder I don't see that going up much except for if I go to the library. So I'm wondering what is that even there for. And work harder same thing when I tap on it I don't really get promoted or anything. Twice I became a pornography historian but that didn't pay well.
Study/work harder
I think the study/work harder is meant for characters who have higher smarts. Because I’ve had characters who had low smarts and when I would click on that option, it would say something like you watched videos rather than study or you tried your best to put in more work. And the characters who I’ve had with higher smarts, have better luck. Like for example more promotions, scholarships, getting frequent raises etc. What also helps is watching documentaries, it raises your smarts by 4%. The only thing that sucks is that there is it always documentaries, or at least for me but when I do find One, I still watch it regardless.
Has anyone
Has anybody won the lottery? I keep trying but I haven’t had any luck yet.
Thanks and the lottery
Well my smarts are about 76 percent and sometimes it says I spent time doodling or looking up at the ceiling. But sometimes I get I spent 6 hours studying or something like that. With the lottery you have to keep trying. I won it 3 times I think once for 50 million the next was probably 10 million and the last time for a couple hundred thousand dollars. I don't buy 1 ticket I always buy 10 tickets at a time.
Omg it
Omg it actually worked! Thanks! I won $101,000, not a lot but its something. And I think your smarts have to be 80 or 85 and higher, I could be wrong though. Because I’ve had characters with 70 or 75% smarts and it didn’t really work. And if possible, try to watch as much documentaries as you can. They won’t always be available, but the ones that are, just watch them no matter how boring they sound lol. And if I’m not mistaken, going to the library/meditating only boosts your smarts/happiness every four years. For example if your smarts are at 70% one year, and you wait 4 years, and go to the library, your smarts should boost but I don’t know how much it goes up.
Generations
Has anyone tried the generations feature? I was planning two do it starting with the character I’m currently on but I just had a quick question. When your character dies it gives you an option to be one of your kids. But I was wondering how that works, like do you start as a baby when you choose to be the kid you want to be? Or do you start off at the age of your kid when your character died. For example, if your character dies at the age of 80 and your kid you chose is 50, do you start out as 50 years old? Thanks.
re: Generations
Hi, I've done the generations before, you start out at whatever age the kid was when your character died. It kind of stinks because what if the original character was 80 when they died, and the kid was 50 and didn't have a spouse or kids, the clock would be ticking on adding more generations to the BitFamily. I don't know, that's just my opinion, they did it that way I guess so it would be more realistic.
Really? That
That sucks and yea I agree. I once played a character who made it to 119 and my twin boys were 82 and both were neither married , or ever married, and had no kids. Glad I didn’t continue with that family lol.
Smarts
When you go to the library the smarts go up by 5 percent but I think you have to go once every 5 years to get the boost. Thanks for recommending the documentaries. My smarts went up sky high when I watched one. And I finally got the lawyer job and didn't have to go to graduate school. Now my wife is refusing to stop taking birth control. I wanted a big family. Lol. Not sure if I will divorce her but we are great together.
Re: smarts
Congrats on the lawyer job! I know, graduate school isn’t a requirement. My son decided to follow in my footsteps and after graduating high school, he went to university and after graduating university, he went straight to law school, which I thought wasn’t fair because I did exactly what he did but I got rejected from law school, so I had to go to grad school. And my wife is the opposite, she wouldn‘t take birth control, so she assaulted me and I left her, but a year or two later, she contacted me and I took her back and now we’re happily remarried lol.She still won’t take birth control. I didn’t want kids nor a big family lol.
