Redacted retirement notification

The pop-up notification for the deprecation of Scanner [REDACTED] that appears in Ingress Prime does not actually notify the impacted agents. The only people seeing it are already using Prime. While this has been broadcast across many channels, there are still agents who are unconnected in the communities. Without a notification in scanner, those agents may not know about the change until the scanner stops working entirely.


Suggestion: Release a piece of media or a toast notification that is visible for agents using Scanner [REDACTED].

    and nobody uses facebook or twitter either? i thought they disabled notifications some time ago anyways...

  • @mortuus the target audience for a message should be able to see that message where they're most likely to find it. That's one of the most critical factors in delivering a successful message. For Ingress players, this means showing it in the app. And since Prime users aren't the target audience (they're already using Prime, and either don't care or already know), that means making it available in [REDACTED].

    I know, i just understand that i myself had to turn on notifications in prime instead of redacted because i thought something was weird when i didnt get any and i have enabled when someone writes to me in comm etc, so when i switched to prime it works so it means they turned them off sometime ago ???

  • If we just had that PARITY that was advertised this would not even be an issue.

    The fact that my team lead I. Busan would not allow anyone to use Prime for Myriad is a testament to the fact that there are still too many parity issues.

    Media would be a great way to distribute a message to all players, except that most players I know immediately delete any media they receive.

    A crazy idea: change all glyph sequences for September

    Past not equal future

    Change

    Portal change

    New technology

    Shaper portal create new technology

    New technology change portal adapt

    Even if it's not possible to force an app update on the sunset date to one last version of Redacted that tells players to switch to Prime, changing all glyphs should give most players a clue.
