Protecting/Transferring Your Data
One of the most common issues regarding playing the game is losing access to account data. Uninstalling the app will cause account access to be lost, so avoid deleting the app if you wish to continue playing the game. In order to prevent losing all your progress, it is recommended to perform one of the following actions beforehand.
Smart Way
To create a transfer code data, simply start up the game, go past the title screen to the map, and go to Options(オプション) on the bottom menu. Then hit Transfer Data (データ引継ぎ) in the middle left. Enter a password into both boxes of your choosing (English letters only) and hit the bottom-most button. Write down the Code it gives you AND the password you used. When you're ready or need to use it, start up the game. At the Title Screen, hit the blue button (Account Transfer) on the bottom left. Enter the Code in the top box, and your custom password you made in the bottom box. Then hit the green button.
As of writing, transfer codes/passwords do not expire anymore, so it is recommended to record this information (transfer code/password) down for account backup. It is recommended you keep your User ID handy and ask for help with contacting the developers in such an event. Or, recover your account using your AuthKey.
Risky Easy Way
Unlike using the transfer system as a way to recover data, on Android devices under /SD/Android/data/jp.co.lifewonders.housamo/files/Data/ is a file labelled AuthKey; this key is used to keep track of account information, and is used to transfer between devices (all the device transfer option does is remove the AuthKey from your device and write it to the new device). You can back this file up onto cold storage/online, but there's no guarantee that it'll work on further versions.
For iOS, it is unknown where exactly the app stores
AuthKey.
As of February 4, 2018. For iOS, the AuthKey location has been found and does not require jail-breaking your phone. However it requires two application tools TweakBox and FilzaEscaped in order for it to work. The AuthKey location is under /var/mobile/Containers/Data/Application/jp.co.lifewonders.housamo/Documents/Data.
Cross-Authkeys are verified to be possible as well. This will save issues for players who want to change new phone brands or devices altogether.
NOTE: When you transfer your account to another device using this code, a new Authkey will be created in this device and your account will be bound to this new Authkey, while the previous Authkey will be bound to a new account. So remember to backup this new Authkey after transferring your data, as the previous Authkey will be rendered useless.
NOTE-2: It's still recommended to transfer between devices using the in-game Account Transfer. It's been officially acknowledged that LW can "detect" this through the User-Agent your device sends out (make/model of phone), so please don't actually rely on this as a lazy way to transfer between two good phones. Whether you can just simply re-transfer to yourself on the same device will un-dirty your account state is unknown.
AuthKey
You can also copy AuthKey to allow access to the same account on multiple devices, even at the same time (note: you can't abuse this to get double the rewards from a quest, but who knows what other bugs and """exploits""" may be possible).
On the flip side, you can also store multiple accounts on the same device; just back up your AuthKey and reload the app to create a new """account""".
Starting Party Composition
In the beginning, it's really hard to recommend a "go-to" party layout and units to aim for, as most units shine at their end game (that being, maxed out). The "difficulty" curve is minimal in the beginning, so focusing on a solid team is just not needed, and the old use units that looks nice adage is actually the way to go.
Additionally, recommending what units to use essentially boils down to "don't use this one", as, again, good units only shine in their late game. Harder quests only really exist as a challenge for veteran players who do have the units ready to tackle. New players simply lack a wide spread of units to pick and choose from, and Events typically give what you need through an Event unit or units with the focused skill in a gacha.
In short, if you're a new player, you don't have to worry about "playing right", just "playing wrong".
s vs Higher Rarities
A lot of units share the same (or very similar) skill sets across rarities. For example, 
Arsalan, 
Choji, and 
Kuniyoshi are the exact same across rarities, just with different costs and base stats. Because of this, it might seem that raising their 
is the way to go, but in reality, focusing on their not only saves on party cost, but less resources are required to max them out (coin cost, stars, LB materials, etc).
On the other hand, there are units like 
Shiro who have slightly different skills. On paper, it seems like his 's [Phase Start] CP gain 100% of the time is a good thing, and having his 's [After Moving] skill seems kind of pointless. However, due to how [When Attacking] skills are handled during a Charge, Shiro charging faster is more of a bad thing, as he won't be inflicting Curse as easily. Because of this, it's recommended to use his lower rarity variant instead.
There are also units like 
Snow, 
Aizen, and 
Wakan Tanka, who share similar skills but have an additional effect on their last skill which makes them a great magnitude better. These units are pretty unviable (namely Snow) as s.
When it comes to units with beneficial [When Attacking] different weapon spreads like 
Agyo and 
Benten, it should be considered that a wider range, while it inflicts less damage, is typically better at activating skills, as each individual unit hit is a chance to activate a skill. In this case, Agyo's and Benten's cards are better than their other forms, as they both have a wider weapon spread than their other rarity.
Avoiding the initial grind
Expanding on the use of making the best use out of that AuthKey file; you're guaranteed 10 stones to get 2 companions with; although, you need to keep going through the tutorial and first battle again and again. Didn't get the companion you want? Just delete the AuthKey instead of deleting app data (deleting app data causes you to lose assets downloaded if you do this, but by clearing the AuthKey, you still keep your cache).
Redoing a battle to guarantee drops
Battles in the game may drop items which are rare, such as event ARs/units/mobs or higher tier seeds/blossoms. As retreating from battle does not cause AP/stamina to be lost anymore, it is possible to guarantee drops by retreating from battle before the victory screen appears.
- Enter the quest/battle.
- Turn on airplane mode.
- Play the quest as normal while keeping track of what has dropped. This option should be turned on in battle settings if turned off.
- When the quest is won, you will receive an error message before seeing the victory screen since the game's servers cannot be contacted due to airplane mode. If you are satisfied with what has dropped, disable airplane mode and tap proceed on the error message (may require multiple taps/restarting app). If you are not satisfied with what has dropped, force quit the app, disable airplane mode, and restart the app. Press the "Give Up" button and you will have retreated from battle while having retained stamina.
- Repeat process until desired drops are acquired.
Lag and Slowdown
If you are on a Galaxy S6 or S7 and experience frequent slowdowns while playing, it is recommended to reduce the resolution of the game to 50% or less through a third party app if possible.
