It's that time of year again. We're getting new iOS beta's.
Can we expect Ingress to run on these iOS versions? Or are we going to have issues again like a few years back? I'd like to test the new version, please add support for the beta in the upcoming release.
Comments
I know iOS 14 caused some users to be banned from using Intel Map.
But with iOS 15, Thia didn’t confirm compatibility until September 2021, when it would have reached public release. So I don’t think we will get confirmation yet.
As always, if you don't want to have issues with your account, wait until Niantic officially confirms that the beta is safe to play with.
That’s why I’m asking. I intend to run the beta on at least one device.
Niantic won’t confirm whether Ingress will work on the beta as far as I know.
I’m betting they are jumping on the developer beta to incorporate interactive widgets for the lightship platform.
Niantic has never supported beta versions...use at your own caution
Support is one thing, banning agents for beta software is another… It wouldn’t take someone from the dam company to come in here and say, good catch agent, we’ll make sure the next release allows for iOS 16 beta use, but please use at your own risk as we don’t “support” beta use…
See @Jo0Lz, there's your answer
Updated today. Everything seems to be working fine :)
As someone who got burnt by the IOS14 beta dramas. Do NOT install new major IOS betas. I did so after Niantic confirmed it was supported, and a few weeks later I was comms/Intel banned for no reason. I am currently on beta for IOS15.6 but that was only after IOS15 went publicly available and was supported by Niantic
Yeah I’m running iOS 16 public beta. Ingress runs “fine”. But I hardly play, so I don’t know if there are any additional bugs.
