Why does Fallout Shelter run slow?
Fallout Shelter might run slow for a few reasons - it could be your device's specs not meeting the game's requirements, especially if it's an older model. Another reason could be having too many apps running in the background. Try closing other apps and see if that helps. Also, make sure your game and device's OS are up to date, as updates often include performance improvements.

Too many dwellers, maybe? I noticed when my vault got really big, the game started lagging. Try keeping your vault population in check.
Honestly, just restart your device. Sounds simple, but it works wonders for speeding things back up.
It's all about the specs! Fallout Shelter is a pretty detailed game, so if your phone or tablet is on the older side, it might struggle to keep up. Upgrade time?
