Mixed-phone couples hit this wall constantly: one iPhone, one Android, and half the games in the store quietly assume you both have the same one. Spaceteam is not one of them. It supports cross-platform play.
What cross-platform actually means here
Cross-platform play means the version on your partner's phone and the version on yours are the same game and the same servers. You are not looking at separate iOS and Android worlds that never meet โ you install it on whatever you each already own and play together from there.
Spaceteam is on both the App Store and Google Play, so it does not matter which of you is on iPhone and which is on Android.
Setting it up on two different phones
- Install Spaceteam on each phone from whichever store you use.
- Create or join the same co-op room.
- Team up and take on the levels together.
- If one of you cannot see the other, check you are both signed in to the same kind of account โ that is the usual culprit, not the phone.
If it still will not connect, have both of you close and reopen the app before troubleshooting anything more exotic.
Is Spaceteam worth it for two players?
Cross-platform is only useful if the game is any good with two people. Spaceteam is a co-op adventure and it is built around playing with someone rather than beside them, which is what makes it work as a couple game rather than just a game you both happen to own.
- Built for co-op, so you win and lose as a team.
- Great for tackling challenges together instead of competing.
- Works whether you are on the same couch or on a call.
Other cross-platform games for mixed-phone couples

- Sky: Children of the Light โ Sky: Children of the Light, from the makers of Journey, is a serene social adventure about flying through beautiful realms and sharing light with others.
- Genshin Impact โ Genshin Impact is a gorgeous open-world action RPG with a vast world to explore and a huge cast of characters to collect.

Frequently asked questions
- Is Spaceteam cross-platform between iPhone and Android?
- Yes. Spaceteam supports cross-platform play, so an iPhone player and an Android player can play together in the same session.
- Can I play Spaceteam with my partner if we have different phones?
- You can. Different phones are fine as long as you both install Spaceteam and link up in-game โ the platform difference does not separate you.
- Do we need the same store account for Spaceteam?
- No. Your App Store and Google Play accounts are separate from your in-game account. It is the in-game account that needs to connect you, which is why the friend step matters more than the store you downloaded from.
