Guide list and reading order

Pick a route, then use the table. A new phone should not start on a classic-player graphic. A control lookup should not start on the studio page. The rows stay short on purpose. The order is the part worth reading.

New phone

You just installed, or you are about to. Start with the limit. No PC version is Android and iOS, Play package com.firsttouchgames.dls7, App Store id 1462911602, price 0. If you are on a laptop, move to the handset. Do not download an APK.

Next, kill the 2027 hunt. 2027 status says the shops still list Dream League Soccer 2026 on the record dated 15 January 2020. There is no official 2027 app. The developer is First Touch Games Ltd. A download page that names someone else is not the listing.

Then update. How to update is the path: open the shop and tap update. Version 13.430 is the App Store build dated 16 September 2026. Play was updated 14 September 2026. The App Store file is 269,641,728 bytes. Clear that room before you tap.

What you play today is the snapshot: store name, version, 100 million-plus downloads, ads, a required connection. The first kickoff is beginner first match. Touch moves are touch controls. The studio page can wait. First Touch Games is about 30 people in one studio in central Oxford, making 3D football games since 2011. That page is for the seller line, not the first match.

After one match, open dream team for the 4,000-plus FIFPRO line and the two printed names, Raphinha and Julián Alvarez. Divisions and cups for 8 divisions and more than 10 cups, toward Legendary Division. Facilities for Stadium, Medical, Commercial, and Training. That is a new-phone night. Clans and Live can wait until the side is worth taking into them.

Already playing

You already have the icon. Skip the install. Open September 2026 if you have not read version 13.430. Cult Heroes is in those notes and is not in the game yet. The classic phrase, with no roster, is on classic players. The store says legendary Classic greats of the game and does not list them. Raphinha and Julián Alvarez stay the named examples on dream team.

Then pick the screen you opened. Market: scouts and agents. Training: coaches and facilities. Coaches develop technical and physical abilities. The shirt: kits and crests. Friends: clans. Worldwide board: Dream League Live. Short challenge: Dream Draft and seasons and events. Manager hair and outfits: manager and looks. Animations, AI, and the graphics engine: gameplay 2026.

If a buy button appeared, read ads and purchases before you tap. Price 0 is the install, not a quiet client. If the match will not start, read data and connection. A connection is required. The share card names Location, Financial info, and 2 others. The collect card names Location, Personal info, and 4 others. Encrypted in transit. That page does not name the others. A yes-or-no question belongs on FAQ.

Looking up a control

You are in a match and a move failed. Open touch controls first. Ball dying at your feet: knock ahead. The other side walking through you: defending. A finish in the air that did not happen: skill shot.

Those four are the control set. A player tutorial, linked from about, is labeled a tutorial, not an official control chart. Do not treat it as the store's diagram. The store lists kicks, tackles, celebrations, and goalkeeper saves as motion-captured actions. The finger path stays on the control page you opened.

If you have not finished a match, start at beginner first match, then touch controls. Confirm you are on a phone. No PC version is the check. Android and iOS only. A mirrored laptop is not the client. Update from the shop if the build is behind 13.430, then come back to the gesture.

After the move works, go back to the club. Controls do not change the division count, the facility names, or the two printed players. They only get you through the match in front of you. If a page disagrees with the listing, mail the URL and the store sentence via contact. Checked 10 November 2026.
