Game center - disabled but keeps reappearing

I am logged out of game center and have done the “ignore” Game Center invite half a dozen times so that it no longer pops up, however, a few months later and I am being nagged again to join Game Center.

has anyone found a way to permanently (and I mean forever) disable Game Center so that it does not keep in coming back like some unstoppable zombie?

Game Center - won't stay disabled Wondering if anybody had such issue, because it's getting really annoying recently. I have disabled game center in settings (the only option that I have in game center setting now is to enable it back). And even though it's disabled: a) It asks me to log in every time I open a game (crypt of the necrodancer amplified) b) from time to time logs me back in automatically which means losing my game save (after disabling game center again it reverts to my old save file) But there is more - sometimes when I disable game center the pop up to log in goes away for few days or so, just to be back after some time. Issues are present for couple of months now, hard to tell when exactly did this start, could be around time I've upgraded to ios 16, but I'm not 100% sure. I'm using ip11 with newest iOS (16.2). Game wasn't updated for 2 years according to appstore so I don't think the game itself is causing issues. I just don't want to use this and want it to remain disabled entirely. Is there some setting that I've missed, or is it a bug in iOS and setting to disable game center simply isn't working?

How to permanently disable Game Center I keep logging out of game center, but there’s one game I play that doesn’t want to take “no” for an answer and either prompts me to sign in to GC, or just signs me in automatically. I don’t play games with other people and do not want this app on my phone. How do I delete either the app or my GC account? Both, preferably.
