Beginner's Guide: Adding Neighbors

Having neighbors in The Sims Freeplay helps you complete social tasks, so, here's how you can add neighbors:

1.  iMessage or Game Center (iOS users)

You can iMessage the player if you personally know them, or add them via WiFi or Bluetooth if they are nearby by going to Settings > Game Center > Allow nearby people to add you through WiFi or Bluetooth.

2. Google Play Games (Android users)

In order to add players as neighbours using Google Play Games, you need to have a Google Play Games account so you can follow them on Google+.  Some players have complained 'though that they have lost progress in their game via Google Play Games, so, best to connect your game to Facebook as well.

3.  Facebook

Here's how you can add neighbors using Facebook:

Make sure you are properly logged in to Facebook and that you are using the correct account.  To do that, launch the game, tap the green "..." main menu icon in the corner of the screen, then open Account Manager (purple keyhole icon).  Below the Facebook bar, tap "Log in" which will redirect you to Facebook.  Login to your Facebook account.  Go back to the game.  Force quit and reopen the game.

When a TSFP player adds you on Facebook, they will automatically be added to your party boat.  Note: Only friends who are also logged into Facebook in The Sims FreePlay will be visible as neighbors.
