Is it the download that is slow (i.e. the MB continually increase, but just not in accordance with the usual speed of you internet connection) or is the download already complete and the screen just reports something like 1080/1800 MB, but never finishes?

If it's the former, then you're probably in a location where connection to the download server is very poor. It's quiet unlikely, because Tapped Out uses the Akamai network, but it still can happen. In that case a Proxy server or VPN might help (I have no idea if iOS supports those, but I suppose they should). There are free ones, usually slow, you should be able to find something that is faster than a patch taking hours to download.

If it's the latter, I'm seeing this quiet often too. As long as I am on the screen with showing the account name and picture, the donut on the right just keeps spinning even though the progress bar states the update is complete. I just tap the screen as if I wanted to continue going into my town. Then the progress appears shortly at the bottom of the screen, disappears again and my town loads. However that's Andorid, so it might be totally unrelated.
