  Did this just get taller and slower in the most recent update?

  Seriously, just when I thought WGT cannot mess up mobile app anymore, they went and did the absolute worst thing possible: messing with the meter. If I don’t know anything better, I would assume they want to alienate all mobile players and funnel them into Flash version. Wait a minute...

  Yup... *sigh*

  I updated the app today from v1.53 to v1.54 and that's the first thing I noticed. The shot meter size is now ridiculously big, big enough to distract the actual game playing!

  Come on, WGT!! Seriously WTF?! Please... restore the previous meter. It was just FINE!

  That's a matter of opinion,  I like it just fine, as do many others I've spoken with,   please please wgt leave it as is.   ty

  I like the new meter size, great relief for my eyes. Now I can actually see where I need to hit, hasn’t improved my game, but my eyes say yayyy....

  This new meter may works for pc standalone, but for pure mobile players that play on smartphones (not even tablets) it’s a major problem.  They could have increased the size by 1.5x of the old meter and it would be fine, but they chose to double it.

  Agree it's easier to see however my timing is off and I feel like I'm starting new again. Wish they would have left it alone or give us the option to choose which meter as a preference.

  I agree with SlickHunter. Enhanced shot meter much easier on my eyes. Also no noticeable difference in speed or ding ability.
