iOS Unable to pick up empty crab pots.

[Maher]

The save file was created in 1.5 and crab pots were placed around the west dock at the beach. The raccoons want snails and I cannot remove the pots to relocate them.

I have a very similar issue. I have crab pots stranded on land after updating and I can’t remove them. They’re at the mountain lake and at the river close to the bookseller.
One of them blocks my access to the little wooden bridge.

I also have trouble picking up other items through long-pressing like the wallpaper/floor- catalogue and the modern fish tank, so this might be a similar issue as well. (?)

I warned people on Threads to remove crabpots if they want to update & use old safefiles. I will do this for the Apple Arcade as well.

I was able to remove a few of the crabpots, but several are still stranded.

I still have a problem to pick up long-press items with menus, like the catalogues and fishtanks too.

Stardew version 1.6.14.4 running a savefile created in the same version

I also cannot pick up crab pots. This is new - did not happen in Stardew 1.5 for iOS.

I haven’t had crab pots on land, but haven’t been able to pick them up in 1.6 through usual methods. Here’s a workaround though:

I use tap-to-move usually, but have had to switch to joystick & buttons to pick up crab pots in 1.6 — and sometimes it takes multiple button clicks. Didn’t have this issue in 1.5.

In 1.5, I had to do this switch for a few other things — access to Lewis’s gold statue and paying for Willie’s boat, in particular.

On my new farms since the 1.6 update, I can remove about 2 out of 3 pots. I have not checked my older farms.

I just updated to the newest game and have IOS 18.2. It’s still very hard to pick up crabpots. Got most of the stranded ones out though.

On a good note: I wanted to report a museum bug, only to find out it’s now fixed.

You are a beautiful person, thank you so much
