Aim high - Hopefully this is common knowledge but you should always aim for the highest bubbles first. If you destroy the bubbles higher up, any bubbles attached below will drop with them.

The bubble queue - Keep an eye on which bubble is coming next in the queue. If you're unsure about what move to play next, often it can be decided by what color bubble you have arriving next.

Swap bubbles - You can use either one of the two bubbles you have available, switch them to make use of the most effective one. Remember, you can cancel your shot by dragging towards the bottom of the screen if you change your mind about the bubble.

Master the wall shot - Placing straight bubbles is easy, using the walls is much more difficult. The sooner you learn to how be accurate using the walls, the better.

Combos - If you're chasing the elusive three-star ratings then combos are the way to go. Getting six matches in a row will trigger the Hot Pot bonus which doubles the points of any bubbles that you dislodge for a limited time. Ending a round with the bonus still active can help you get mega scores.

Clear the top challenge - Special bubbles don't occur very often on the clear the top levels, instead you must focus on looking for the easiest route to the top, usually by clearing one side.

Clear the animals challenge - Clearing the middle of the screen and then cutting off animals with accurate high shots is generally the best way eliminate them. As long as you drop an animal, it becomes free, so you don’t have to worry about aiming for the bubbles directly above the animal.

Free the ghost challenge - Don't be afraid to make use of a bubble just to rotate the level to make your next shot easier. Try to clear one side instead of the entire group.
