Hints and tips showing how to pass level 2378 Candy Crush Saga without boosters by Cookie
You have to collect three popcorns and 20 yellow candies to complete level 2378.
Try to grow all three of the popcorns before you start to match the lucky candies which drop down from the dispensers once the popcorns are grown.
It is tempting to start matching the lucky candies as soon as they begin to fall, but if you don't have all of the popcorns you are likely to get more from the lucky candies instead of yellow candies.
Sometimes you can't avoid switching the lucky candies, or they may get switched by cascades etc. If you are lucky you may not get too many popcorns and you can still manage to make good combos to clear them.
You should avoid hitting the lucky candies while they are directly under the dispensers if you still need popcorns because the last thing you want is more popcorns preventing the lucky candies from dropping.
Wrapped candies are the most useful on this level, switch them with a stripe or a colourbomb, or even another wrap. This will give you the best chance of clearing the level.
I have a couple of double colourbomb combos which can be helpful as they will grow any popcorns as well as collect the yellows.
It is usually best to try to work in the bottom part of the board, but check the top before you make moves as there may be good moves there too after the candies have settled.

Hello. I haven't gotten to this level yet but I have a problem. For like 8 months I was unable to back up on Facebook but now it's about doing that. I just updated and when I tried backing up on FB it asked me to sign in afresh. I'm wondering if it'll take me back to my last backup and since I'm like 900 levels away from that I'm concerned. Please help
Ah, Cookie, how I love you. 1) Don't switch the lucky candies before I have all the popcorns? Assumes that I can get ANY popcorns before the moves run out. 2) Double-color-bomb combos are useful? No kidding! How many thousands of times do I have to play this level before I get a chance at one?
And whinging works again!
well, after 100+ tries I'll give up. Thanks for making a level again impossible waiting for the nerf
can't get close to completing this level. Extremely frustrating.
Email them they will fix it
My iPhone 6+ is at 2375 for 21/2 weeks my iPad is at 2360. They tell me it doesn't go any higher but friends have sent me extra moves for 2376. Ugh what's the deal
I had a similar problem and sent an email and they fixed it within a day. Irefused to redo any games. Good luck
There has got to be something wrong with this level....even if I get the popcorns popped, there are still not enough yellows to beat this level....is there anyone else with this issue? Does Crush plan on changing the rules here???
I reiterate that there has to be a problem with this level....this is the first level where I can't even come close to winning...really, how can you beat this level??? Is there an actual answer to this question because the hints, while they may be true, are unrealistic....I have been frustrated before, but this is ridiculous....I just can't imagine Crush not being a part of my life, but it sure looks like this may be the end....
not even getting near, manage to break the popcorns only 4 moves left to make yellows. and game froze agin, s o I lost my gifted lives again, even less chances to try when it does that :(
This is a hard level for sure but I just noticed that the sugar drops are back!!! YAY! But only on computer, on my tablet there is a weird looking skull on some levels, no idea what that means and no sugar drops.
Try to do the popcorn fast because once that is taken care of all the lucky candies become yellow. A wrap falling just above the popcorn is ideal. Once the popcorn is done try to put a special with a sprinkle and the board will fill up with yellow candy. In my case a sprinkle and stripe. Good luck all.
If I do manage to get any of the popcorns popped, most of the lucky candies turn into more popcorn, not yellows. Impossible and boring. Again.
Commenting for luck. I can't get anywhere near solving this level. I can get the popcorns popped maybe half the time, but then I'm still a million short of the number of yellows I need.
It's going to take divine intervention for me to pass this level. That, or a ****load of lollipop hammers.
Posting twice did the trick. Got the popcorns early, then collected yellows. Even then I almost didn't make it. Had two yellows on the board, needed two to finish, but only had one more left. I had that booster that puts stripes on the candy on your choice. Put stripes on a yellow next to another striped candy, switched them to get the second yellow. Phew!
Been on this level for about 4 days and I too thought it was impossible. Just passed without using any boosters. You need to pop the 3 popcorns without trying to open any lucky candies. Yes it is hard put possible. Once you have all 3 popcorns all the lucky candies turn into yellows just then use the chocolate sprinkles to get the lucky candies churning out good luck
Wow i have just done it!! Cc updated today and I am sure they have taken a colour off the board... making it easier to make combos sure there was no red candies just blue green purple.... worst level ever
posting for luck....
Another 'worst level ever'. Try now more than a week, but few times only had a board that was promising. Used a few hammers, but after having 3 popcorns and 15 moves left, i had only useless moves available and of course as usual mystery candies turn into bombs with countdown 5 or heavy blockers or even popcorns. Extremely frustrating.
Don't know what sort of switch Miss Cookie has, to always gets lucky boards like this.
Hard level. It took 2 swaps, 2 lollis and extra moves to finish. Movin' on.

posting for luck...again
Gonna be stuck for a long time! Ridiculous level!
Every time I think it's a impossible level then realize Cookie and her friends have beaten it, so can I!
But I do need some lucky board send to me, please?
I pretty much used up all my boosters on this level!
I really need the lucky board please.
This level only on my PC, won't update levels on pad or phone. Why is that? Oh, and on this level, rare to see a yellow candy, how can you get 20! Going to be on this a long time
Knocked out the 3 popcorns several times but not even close with the yellow candies.
Mmm another very frustrating level. Just when I thought they were getting it right again along comes a level to annoy you.
Why do I need 6 -7 Popcorns??? Bloody ridiculous they should only be yellow candies that come out as there is 3 popcorns on the board to start with!!
3 stars on pc, no boosters in about 30 tries. Yes, get popcorn first, then yellows. I had a sprinkle to get the last 8 needed of yellows. Should be pretty easy with switches or hammering popcorn early enough to collect yellows.
again, another board where you mostly need luck. Need to have stripes and wrapped and then be able to match them together.. Or yes, I hadn't thought of switching two colour bombs together!!!!!!! Posting for luck
can anyone tell me where to contact King to get ipad and iphone on the same level as PC. Says under construction which we know its not. Sent to one King contact and no answer after several days. Help!
It takes so many hits to get 3 popcorns to pop, and when I get 3 on a rare occasion, only 1 or 2 moves are left to get 15-20 yellows. Oh, also in most games I end up with 5-6-7 popcorns so there is nothing much to do after that but quit the game. There is still no sign of a luck board either. BTW I have no boosters so I will be stuck here forever I suppose. I reckon this is the last level of CC I will ever play.
everytime I close to winning this level with plenty of moves left the screen freezes on me. so annoying
seems impossible but other people have done it so it must be possible.
I tried and tried. I begged and begged. Still stuck in this seemingly easy level. Ms.Cookie, I'm sure I have also failed at some lucky board sent by you. I'll keep on trying so please keep on helping me.
For those people who want to "sync" their PC with ipad/iphone, forget it. The PC game is (and always was) ahead of the mobile game by a week. IOW, the level we're on now, PC, will not be on Mobile until this Wednesday.
How could I be this horrible and yet got to reach this level?
I start hating this my only online game i play. Begging for the lucky board hasn't worked neither. Could this be my limit?
This is a tough one, for sure. I can't see how one can pass this w/o boosters. I'm not giving up, though. I've come too far. I hope this post will bring me luck. ;)
I finally passed this one yesterday the trick to this one is to make sure that all of the popcorn's are completely busted With at 13 moves left.... this way when the check mark candy falls they're not busting in the popcorn's but instead all yellow.... good luck everyone
How f*cking tediously boring is this level
I'm stuck here for almost a week!
Help!
who ever made this level GTH!!!
I'm not posting for luck but posting to quit!!

However hard this level is, still no match against Mort's Magical Helmet. Got it on the first try 3 stars.
Is it just me, I am finding the checked candies are turning mainly to popcorn. In 2 weeks, I have cleared the 3 initial popcorn candies many times, only to have the checked candies turn into popcorn candies and blocking the board. I have not yet managed to produce 20 yellow candies
Rick, I haven't had the magic helmet for the last three weeks ! Any clues ? Thanks S
I had the magic helmet yesterday for 64 more hours and of course today a new level opens up and of course the helmet disappears.
I am having some of the same issues...Hitting popcorn several times and all I get is more popcorn. I have played many many times and still have seen NO yellow! So tired of us all having to put up with King issues level after level after level! Close to quitting! All about waiting and waiting for that lucky board, which could take days to get!
Passed using no boosters and following advice above by anonymous about not opening check mark until all popcorn were blown up. After that all check marks turned yellow instead of turning into popcorn.
Very hard level.
Making striped combos is not as easy as it is shown in the video
Seems like every time I get forced to use specials and then popcorn blocks everything.
Come on lucky board!!!!!!
Cleared the popcorn, but the checks only turn into more popcorn and not yellow. This level sucks and if it's not fixed, goodbye. Not fun anymore!
I eventually managed to clear all the popcorn with plenty of moves left but no more lucky candies came onto the board.
Cleared all the popcorn again but still couldn't get enough yellows. Next go had blasted the popcorn with wrap/wraps and a sprinkle and wrap and cleared then with 25 moves left. It took another 13 goes to pass as the yellows were spread out or in awkward places.
Use all three boosters. Reset until a wrapped and sprinkle are next to each other. Make sure the popcorns are surrounded by the same color as the wrap. Match them together. Boom. Three stars.
Wow. I played this one time and I didn't even get one popcorn popped let alone any yellows. Guess I'll be waiting for the magic helmet to return. I did notice that most of the special candies I opened were stripes though rather than popcorn so maybe they fixed it. Good luck everyone.
Totally unfair. I popped all the corn first but my first two check marks were more popcorn instead of yellows. Like it's not hard enough anyway. Thanks a bunch King.

Posting for luck again.
insane level...
came here and read the comments...went back and played once...gotit...there has to be something said about reading..
Grrrrr, another frustrating level, just going through the motions now, no point in wasting time and energy trying to plan moves.
Can anyone tell me how to get the magic helmet ? I had same problem with space ships - I was told I had one, but not how to actually use it, spent lots of time going through screens, but didn't find any where to click to make use of it - RUBBISH !!!!!!!
Posting for luck for sure. Terribly hard level.
Posting for luck.....please.
Wow! I have played for days. Stopped for almost a week to fight the CA wildfires and then came back. Am so over this game...I will throw ALL my boosters at it then quit if I can’t pass. I actually kinda liked my time off playing this game. Freeing...
Posted the above comment and won the next game without boosters! Go figure...
As another poster said above, used all 3 boosters and reset until sprinkle by a wrap, being sure the wrap color was near each popcorn.
Can't get anything but popcorns, impossible to get any yellow. ...need a good board thanks
Posting for luck!
I’m convinced the only way to win this level is to have lots of boosters. I went back and played levels 1-9 to get the helmet. Then I kept resetting until I had a sprinkle beside a wrap with lots of the same color on the board. I still used 3 hammers to immediately destroy the remaining popcorn. I won quickly. This one is designed to use all of our boosters. IMPOSSIBLE without them.
And again all comments from 2017. All players left this game. So, i cant take this game serious. Is that the reason i hardly play this game? I can say YES.
Need a lucky board and more boosters please!
What is the point of cookie stating the absolute obvious? I know it would be great not to move any things under the dispensers, or burst all 3 popcorn popcorns before going for the yellows but it doesn't work that way. Please give us useful hints, I've been on this for what feels like 300 years now...
I keep trying this level but not much enthusiasm left. Not a fan of this level because I don’t even get close
A really hard board, posting for luck
My check candies are bombarding me with popcorn and nothing els.
Post for luck.
Still needing a lucky board...
Posting for luck!! ��
Why do you believe cookie is real?
Unbelivable hard!!! Waitimg for a lucky board again
Lucia...if you don't like Cookie's advice, why on earth are you posting on her site? Go find some other candidate willing to stick their neck out to help you and whine/whinge there. We all know that every board is different and that the path to winning looks different for each of us. I wouldn't have made it this far without Cookie and the posts of fellow crushers.
Só com um MILAGRE divino é possÃvel passar essa fase!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a load of shit this level is! Come on King I thought you were better than this.
Posting for luck-can't even get close :(
Got all the popcorn and specials still turned into more popcorn ,not yellows. Hopefully just a one time glitch. Luck needed
The tip of not hitting the checks til after all popcorn is popped worked. Above comment does seem to have been a one time glitch
Posting for luck
Just make moves from d bottom an only on top when is to get a booster. Simple
There has to be something wrong with this level! Get the two popcorns fairly early on & was able to switch them together -- all I ever get is two yellows & the check always turn into popcorns! Never get any more than two more yellows! Game over! Please fix this!
I can’t get this one at all !!! Not only unable to pop tje popcorns but NO yellows coming down ! Please !!!!
Posting for luck for the 3rd time on this level. Every time I manage to get all the popcorn there isn't enough moves left to get the yellows. Very frustrating!!! Waiting for a lucky board!
Stupid idiotic level.
I've barely been able to pop one popcorn, let alone all three. Even when I do get the popcorn the chocolate ball is stuck there and can't be matched with anything. pfl
Hi everyone having trouble to, even when I get those popcorns I don’t have enough yellow to pass this level, it’s good to see some 2019 posts on here
There’s Usually just a few of us mostly older posts
I’ve tried boosters and no boosters just having so much trouble watching videos also, hoping on a lucky board good luck everyone
Tried all yesterday off and on not much luck
This morning using a choc sprinkle and a wrap stripe combo finally passed I did use 2 hammers to hit the last popcorn then the checks all turned to yellow, thanks cookie for your help and the people that post there advice
YUP! Another stupid impossible level.... TY CC your'e doing a great job at these lately....
I need to post for luck because I cant get anywhere
Is this even possible?? 2 days on this now, and when I did get somewhere a stupid bomb with 4 on just screwed it all up!! These are getting ridiculous.
This level has been changed and should be rated impossible. Number pf moves has dropped to 22 and most of the board is locked in licorice.
There is no way to get through this level. Frustrating
This level isn't even marked as a hard level, pfft! I have 22 moves to get 30 yellow candies & the candies will not even start to drop until u clear the popcorn that is also blocked with jelly on top of it?! This game is just frustrating now. Email candy crush & just tell u levels are changes to enhance the players experience....sure just make levels impossible in my opinion. GL all.
Ok, finally passed this level but used boosters. Used a flying saucer before I made any moves & then used 2 lollipop hammers to open the top right popcorn to drop the yellow candies. Thankfully plenty of yellows fell & I was able to complete level! GL all.
