I do still play it occasionally, but not very often.
My sub-1 list. Pretty sure there are 1083 times there. I don't keep track of avgs (because mobile app), I know I have some sub 1s though.
The 0.14 is a 2 mover, for some reason much faster than all my other 2 movers. I'm not sure if a one mover is possible. The longest I've sub 1'ed is 7 moves, not often though. Only got low 1s at best on 8 moves.
Also I have every 0.xy up to 0.30, which I only got recently with a 0.46.
EDIT:
Read through the thread again. Alex got a one mover on mobile so I guess it is possible, I'm just unlucky. Also Roman's solver is interesting. He only got a 7 mover at worst. Some solutions were very unintuitive (to me) though. Maybe sub 1 global avg is possible.

So uh.
It's been a hot minute since I've even been active at all in the Speedcubing community.
But I came across this game and this thread again, so I decided to set (to my knowledge) the size record.
150x150
Cool cool.

Happy new year Speedsolving! I have just released a brand new version of switchtile - a puzzle game for touchscreen devices, where a scrambled two-dimensional grid of tiles must be rearranged back to the original grid pattern as fast as possible. It's completely free, with no hidden in-app-purchases or adverts.
I developed the original app 7 years ago in 2014 (if you're getting deja vu!), and it gained a small following of speed-solvers competing for the best times and averages. However it has since grown old, and is now quite outdated and sluggish. As a result, I have spent the past 12 months creating a brand new version, with loads of new features!
- Two modes- classic & advanced
- In classic mode, the rows and columns of the 2d grid wrap around the edges
- Advanced mode adds the ability to rotate the central tile(s)
- Three board sizes - 3x3, 4x4, 5x5
- Timed sessions
- Keep track of consecutive solve averages: mean-of-3, average-of-5 and average-of-12
- Detailed statistics
- View all of your personal records, and results from every timed session
- Configurable animation speeds
- Tile sliding animations can be completely disabled if you want!
- Multitouch support
- Multiple rows/columns can be interacted with simultaneously!
- Using two fingers to swipe a single row/column will move it twice
- Dark theme!
- Loads of different tile colour schemes

New release: Version 1.1.0
Side note: any times/averages achieved in a seeded timed session do not count towards personal records (this is to prevent cheating by preparing for a seed).
- Added seeded timed sessions - allows you to challenge a friend to an identical set of scrambles!
- Added scrollable list of individual solve times to session statistics
- Fixed "ice cream" tile colour scheme
- Small optimisation to scrambling algorithm
- Small UI fixes/improvements
