  • nekosIayer 💀 (@nekosIayer) reported

    @NianticHelp Updated my Pokemon Go two days ago, since then, the game can't stay open for at least two minutes without crash or freezing. I cleaned the phone, uninstalled the game and reinstalled it, but nothing changed. What should I do?

  • SkibopMoss Skibop!! 마리린 (@SkibopMoss) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Fix your app ap it stops crashing on launch

  • Pyrothesis1 RSM (@Pyrothesis1) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Nice but why has my adventure sync stopped working I'm normally around 25km by now and it's only at 1.4km

  • mattfinninc615 Matthew Finnerty (@mattfinninc615) reported

    @JustANimrodPoGo @PokemonGoApp Yeah. In the "game files" but yet it isn't in the game. How odd 🙄 as I said: being data mined doesn't mean it'll show up in game. Use your brain(yes i copied and pasted because you need to read this again since you're obviously slow)

  • awpplejuice A J (@awpplejuice) reported

    @PokemonGoApp fix yo game, I was in a raid. Used a remote raid pass, and I was in a legendary raid. Once my Pokémon died, I got kicked out by an error…smh

  • nekosIayer nicole. (@nekosIayer) reported

    @NianticHelp Updated my Pokemon Go two days ago, since then, the game can't stay open for at least two minutes without crash or freezing. I rebooted the game, uninstalled and reinstalled it, cleaned the storage, but nothing changed. What should I do?

  • ohboyberto BERTO H J (@ohboyberto) reported

  • vadersblade Vadersblade (@vadersblade) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Fix GBL? Fix empty lobbies? Invite cap? Adventure sync? What about NEEDED Quality of Life updates FIRST?! #HearUsNiantic

  • garethw373 gareth worthington (@garethw373) reported

    @PokemonGoApp @NianticHelp @NianticHelp can you explain your refund policy to me please. Yesterday I had an issue with a raid, sent a video of the problem. Raid pass was refunded today. Then today another issue, sent video, told “we’ve already refunded you”.. completely unacceptable. 2 raids, 1 refund 🙄🙄

  • Korn12389881719 Korn123 (@Korn12389881719) reported

    @PokemonGoApp @NianticHelp Hey, Niantic Help, you said that the pose was exclusive to those who got to legend on the first 6 weeks of GBL… Why does so many weaklings who got it this morning have it? Please fix your game. Legend players deserve to have some more exclusive stuff.

  • mattgcn the nintendo shamecube (@mattgcn) reported

    i usually dont put the effort to root my phones anymore because it always causes problems with pokemon go lmao which is half of what i use my phone for out of the house

  • GrimlyGO Grimly (@GrimlyGO) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Maybe it can use that intelligence to fix your game :0

  • InGeekWeTrust The Last Angry Ghoulie (@InGeekWeTrust) reported

  • nianticscam Niantic0support (@nianticscam) reported

    @amzor_cen @justin02350 @PokemonGoApp Legendaries would not pose an issue in gym defense. There are too many other mons that are better for gym defense than any of the legends would be.

  • mik0469 Michael (@mik0469) reported

    @PokemonGoApp The timed research includes go battle league? If that's the case that you fix the go battle league so that people can't cheat on it anymore

  • JTLang2299 Trey (@JTLang2299) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Can you work on the raid invite notification system, please? We ALL constantly miss raids because the notification outside the app gives you maybe 5-7 seconds to accept the raid invite on, what, a 150 second timer? Really?? Timed out, rejoined, kicked at 30 seconds... Fix it.

  • xiancochran xian (@xiancochran) reported

    @PokemonGoApp app crashed in a raid waiting room and when I logged back it ate my remote raid pass. please fix this, I paid money for it.

  • scappie Duskie2000 (@scappie) reported

    @PokemonGoApp. Incense not working? wtf

  • AnacybeleKels Kelly Kollar (@AnacybeleKels) reported

    @PokemonGoApp You need to fix bugs too. I keep having a bug where I'm unable to view Professor Willow's conversations in special research. I click the research task button when a new conversation is supposed to come up and like 90% of the time, nothing happens and I miss out on what he says.

  • Batman8264 mike howell (@Batman8264) reported

    @4TheBattles @PokemonGoApp How does this help my gameplay issues. Missing pokemon from multiple generations, battle league doesn't work, lag kills raids... but go on and make a buck and affirm you care nothing of the community

  • Sharkbyte64 Sharkbyte (@Sharkbyte64) reported

    @LukeSkybuilder @PokemonGoApp Honestly I’m more excited about all the xl candy, I’ve been working on getting my mega gengar to lvl 50

  • MKU3075 めかちく(COMMS CLOSED: 6/6) (@MKU3075) reported

    Not two but three. I'm not working as an officer in that other organization but that also takes my time since I have to hang out playing Pokemon Go with the other officers to build relationships with them (and also increase popularity).

  • garethw373 gareth worthington (@garethw373) reported

    @PokemonGoApp @NianticHelp It’s quite clearly the same issue on two separate occasions. Both instances your lazily programmed game crashed at the end of the raid just before the reward screen. It literally freezes and force closes itself, reopen and you get the gym rather than the raid.

  • Adrenallynn Angelica Lynn (@Adrenallynn) reported

    Shout out to Howard in @PokemonGoApp/ @NianticHelp for returning my remote raid pass from an app crash 😌

  • Mike72618927 Mike (@Mike72618927) reported

    @PokemonGoApp My son all of a sudden can not sign in to his Niantic kids account. Authentication issue. I can sign into mine on his phone and can sign into his account from my phone. Can someone help us out here?

  • mbvapes19_wvc_ Mikael Billiter (@mbvapes19_wvc_) reported

    @PokemonGoApp No problem

  • KevynPM Kevyn with a Y (@KevynPM) reported

    @NianticHelp In Pokemon Go on the Finding Your Voice special research, step 4, trying to claim the encounter for (catch 30 species) makes the screen go white and lock up. Can't get past it. Can't finish the research now. Please fix.

  • PlansLikeASound Burger King (@PlansLikeASound) reported

    @PokemonGoApp Any chance you can fix the lag in your servers? Or are you garbodors too busy putting lame hats on pokemon? Go Battle Lag is unplayable #trash
