Items for Portal Scan (Scoutcontroller)
Scanning a Portal talkes signigicantly longer than a glyphhack. Also Nia receives new data for their AR map. So why aren't agents additonally rewardet with items? (like a special hack) And like the item output for scans in Pokémon GO! So, please Niantic, items for portalscans in Ingress :)

*takes longer
I agree, there should be items, could basically be an extra hack. As it stands just now most people i speak to have zero interest in scanning, like literally none, and that's in ingress and pogo, but at least in pogo there is rewards for doing it
The scans in PoGo are implemented as a "Daily Task". The rewards are for completing the task.
I agree that Ingress should get Daily Tasks that reward with a small amount of gear.
Has that been discussed amongst the other XMAs (if you’re allowed to tell us that) @Perringaiden ?
I would love to see Daily Tasks in Ingress. We do already have them in theory such as doing a hack, glyph hacking and recharging. So a simple rotating task list could be made, with some minor rewards.
AP is already rewarded for doing portal scans (which was also too little, too late) as well as scout controller points. Nothing else should should be given as it would also unbalance the rest of the actions in-game - next you will want want more special hacks or items when we link, or destroy, etc.

Not in any capacity I'm able to share with you. 😉
But here's a good discussion of the concept of Daily Tasks as an Ingress element, and my personal thoughts are in that.

And Niantic should NOT force scanning on us by giving items for that etc. Otherwise the "zero interest" part is gonna take more and more and I suppose people are more likely to drop the game rather than to start scanning.
