Niantic Campfire

As of a recent update, the app now apparently requires you to enable WiFi scanning to find a location. The only reason this would be a requirement is if Niantic/Scopely are also getting this information. There is no reasonable functional requirement for this, it's just Niantic/Scopely trying to get more data without paying for it or offering anything in return. The app is broken and non-functional for me now.

Messages randomly decide that they can't be sent and you aren't given the option to copy and resend them. The raiding queue never works. When you check into meetups you are now forced to pick one reward path instead of being able to select from multiple. Barely anyone who plays Niantic games uses the app, as it is never advertised. Alot of these features should have been built into games like Pokemon GO in the first place, instead of horribly constructed in a separate app. Disappointing.

This app is ment to help you connect with other players, but the message system is so buggy it basicly wont work. I've turned notifications on and off a dozen times. I have never once been notified. So in order to use the app you basicly have to open amd close the app constantly to watch for replies inevitably give up only to then receive a reply but you have moved on to the next thing and never actualy meet up with other players. The only reason I keep it is for the raid map.
