iOS Field Animations No Longer Working - texture replaced with low res junk

I first noticed this several weeks ago, standing under a field that looked like a non-moving, zoomed-in low-quality, pixelated .JPG.
Not on battery saver mode. On version 2.111.2 - however this issue pre-dates this version.
Asked team mates on Android if they're experiencing the same, but all of the animations work fine on Android.
Specific steps to reproduce:
Step 1. Open ingress on iOS.
Step 1.5 look at a control field.
Describe what you expected and what actually happened:
Fields used to be animated. Now they are not, and seemingly replaced with a super low quality pixelated texture.
Model name iPhone 13 Max Pro
OS: iOS 16.0
Issue occurs on both Wifi and Cellular data.
Notice how sh*tty it looks in the app. It's a 10x10 pixel tile (you can count them), stretched up 500%, and tiled across the field. It looks like a really low-res and unappetising waffle. The pre-prime scanner looked better than this!

I was originally wondering if this was a homage to Minecraft. When it does this in green I can’t help but think of creepers.
