Loosing interest in Ingress because of the many issues

I've been playing Ingress for many years, and I know there were plenty of issues in the beginning of what was the Redacted scanner as well. But after being used to having a game which works mostly as intended, the current state of the Prime scanner is not yet in a reasonable MVP

There are multiple issues I experience daily which are an annoyance by themselves, but taken together they have almost completely taken away my interest in the game.

  1. The long startup sequence. - Starting the scanner often take up to 60 seconds before I even see the game map
  2. The sudden screen freeze - I recharge plenty of keys, and much too often when leaving the menue to view the map in order to initiate a glyph hack, the screen completely freeze. A standard morning the game freeze 3 - 4 times during my 25 minute tram ride. Not only is this extremely irritating having to restart the scanner with the long startup time, it make me miss many of the hacks that I use to refill my inventory to keep recharging portals.
  3. The missing notifications and Alerts. Since some time back, the alerts and notifications are completely useless. This morning I have received 65 attack alert emails, but in the same time I have not received a single notification from Prime, and Alerts tab show that there have been no attacks on my portals today. (there is a ticket raised for this in App Feedback section. (For some reason I cant link or post images in this part of the forum, so I can't link it)
  4. The battery drain. My Samsung S9 battery is drained much faster using Prime than using Redacted, so much that I lost 12% of battery this morning just walking the 700 meter from my apartment to the tram while keeping ingress on.


Please resolve these issues which should be atleast part of an MVP of the scanner.
