The keys list/dropdown while linking. It's very small and it gets diffcult to link when you're making complicated layers, a millimeter wrong touch and it wil end up linking to something else. If the portal pictures can be bigger, it would be easier to navigate through the list.
This has already been said but i want to reiterate. I love the new graphics but i really can't see the game when i am out playing . I can adapt to everything else but a classic skin maybe ? I need more contrast. It would be nice to have the old look of redacted if possible. The functions in Prime I am actually liking better now. I have a brand new S10+ and I just can't see graphics clearly.
Secondly. I concur with the ability to upload stats is an issue for me as well.
I miss the tap & swipe menu feature so much. It’s so much easier and faster to use!
The ability to drop keys from portal view, again so much faster than having to go to the inventory especially when we want to drop more than one key.
I wanna be able to share my profile! It’s way better during Ingress events and with Agent stats or to promote the game.
When submitting a portal i’d love if title and descriptions weren’t systematically cut in the middle of a word or sentence. That’s really annoying for agents submitting portals but also for agents reviewing in OPR.
i’d love if glyph hacking were more like in Redacted. The timer is weird...
I would like the Portal Locator / Navigate function.
As for the UI, I like Prime better but as some have noted it would be nice to have a Settings Page that allowed you to customize the UI to have elements of Redacted in it. This way you can keep Prime and its engine in development but allow those who want the old interface to switch back and forth.
I agree that the normal Scanner is too dark for daytime play so another thing to add to Settings is to have a “Day Mode” that changes everything to show better contrast. You might even be able to have a sub-setting that uses the phone’s light sensor to automatically switch back and forth so when you pass through different lighting conditions you don’t have to manually switch it.
It would be nice to see the resonator deployment follow a logical pattern once an agent selects a Reso Position as well as knowing what direction was north. I get that it goes from closest to you to farthest from you. but when you are with a group and are trying to coordinate your deploys or have a location where you want to mix up distances then you need both the North indicator and to have a more predictable direction of deployment. in redacted when I selected a position it would deploy clockwise from there I want that back.
Hello I see that on premium we do not have the immersive mode, nor the possibility of forcing the synchronization.
Moreover since the beginning of premium there is no opportunity to recruit.
and why can not I show all the pictures of a portal when there are more than 9 pictures on the portal?
the steering system is no longer available and was practical.
I would like to see next in prime the functionality that shows the closest portals when there is no portals visible in the screen.
This is really important in the rural areas where there is not so many portals at all. It is very cumbersome to try and follow your location with a zoom level close enough to see the gray portals
Can you PLEASE do away with the wire frame graphics. PoGo actually has great solid surface images that CAN be seen in full sunlight so the platform obviously has the ability. That may go a long way to help with the daylight visibility issue.
I made a post about this on /r/ingressprimefeedback. Here is my post verbatim. The moral of the story is PLEASE FIX STARTUP TIME FOR PRIME. You cannot have by the second/minute challenges when the game takes 40+ seconds to launch due to forced waiting on cutscenes! You can't have your cake and eat it too, and this alo
TL;DR: On the same LTE, I lost thirty six seconds of time starting Prime over Redacted due to forced startup waits. As a captain of five, I'm ordering my team to cut Prime until this is fixed.
Hey all, Smurfhunter here. I'm a more than five time anomaly veteran, and Abaddon was my second time being a bike team captain. Suffice to say, I've had a lot of hands on experience with Prime and Redacted in anomalies. And Prime was a huge let down on site at Prime. Let me explain why.
Prime crashes. A lot. And that isn't necessarily the fault of prime all the time; modern smartphones are becoming more and more of a black box. Maybe it ran out of memory the phone overallocated? Maybe the phone just told it to **** itself? Maybe it was a bug that us end users will never be able to help debug? Whatever the cause, prime crashes, and so does redacted, and when you're in an anomaly site, with hundreds of comm activities, links and portals, it's not critical for the app to survive the whole anomaly without a crash. In fact, it's always been expected by my team, and we had to full on restart our ingress apps on everyone's phone more than four times, on both redacted and prime. And I want to reiterate, that's fine, I understand the amount of pressure put on phones and servers is surreal, so this can happen.
But what's NOT fine, is the super long restart time of Prime, which seems to be the fault of two Timed events, which really should not stop you from restarting a scanner. Let me break it down. (I will have sample recordings of both if requested).
I always loved the restart time of redacted, and timing it just gives me a reminder how simple and beautiful it is. When I open the app, the simple, blue screen appears, no frills, it loads from my connection, and then the establishing location screen pops up. Which you can hit back to cancel. On my currently bad LTE connection, this takes TEN seconds. When you aren't moving at an anomaly site, this happens substantially faster. Easily in the realm of sub ten seconds. Truly beautiful.
This is the absolute opposite when I open Prime. On the EXACT SAME LTE connection, the following, in order, happens: the Niantic logo appears. The game plays the jingle, and makes you wait for it to pass, even if you cannot hear it because your phone is muted. Then the app tries to load data, and then it plays a similar location locking animation. That you cannot back out of. This took 46 seconds on my current device and connection.
Thirty six seconds more, which could be greatly reduced if an animation could be skipped, a logo didn't hold the game's start time and if the jingle at the beginning did not literally hold the game from starting, further adding to the delay.
Look. I'm not here to sweet talk devs, I'm here to captain a team at an anomaly. And every second counts to me and my teammates. This app can and will crash during extreme combat over a volatile or a shard. And when every single second- every mash on the recharge button, the mod deploy button, the resonator deploy button, and the link button- how do you expect me to accept these repeated delays with open arms? Thirty six seconds of just sitting on your **** at a less than five minute battle where every single action must be perfect is UNACCEPTABLE. PERIOD. And I will not be using Prime as my scanner until this is fixed, especially at anomalies. I want into the game, I don't want it to patronize me with these damned jingles, logos and animations.
A thing that I miss a lot on Prime is to easily see if a portal is out or full energy, I mean, in Redacted is very perceptible that on portals, even by the field that a portal is holding on and in Prime I don't see that.
I think the scanner redacted is cleaner then Prime, its more intuitive, you shall think about it, how to make Prime more intuitive, less complex. I mean, on Redacted, we easily see a possibily of link, of field, if a portal is good of energy, if needs recharge, if have shields, and on Prime we need to pay more attention, give a zoom on the scanner, makes us do more efforts to check common gameplay things.
Another point is that I miss the strong green and strong blue from fields and links, that glow, alive, on the scanner. In Prime all links and fields are kind of dark.
The last thing is the possibility to navigate to a portal. So, I can go a long distance just navigating, jumping from portal to portal, without the necessity to have keys!
- i am used to it and i see no Advantage for me or my play to use prime (please don't even think about using this reason in a not Player friendly way to force us to change)
So: tell me why should i use Prime? At the moment i am not sure if i will still play when i have to change - and since i started 1539 days ago i missed no daily hack.
Let me preface this by saying that I'm Red/Green colorblind.
I have a really hard time seeing things in Prime. Grey portals are almost indistinguishable from XM.
Low level portals are hard to distinguish which faction owns them. It may be that the rings around the portal that indicate the mod rarity on the portal are a factor. Green rings for common, purple rings (blue with a red tint when I'm red/green deficient) for rare and pink (y'know, lightish red...or light green for me) for VR.
The old textures in a option screen. But visibility and clickability will do. I never want to missclick a portal ever again. Or not see a difference between a road and a neutral portal.
Portal edits. There are portals that need to be fixed or removed (no longer present) that I still need to use redacted for. Can't add new pictures either.
Turn off sound when we open inventory, seeing other agent, capsule pickup BGM. How if you made a new page and not "pop-up" when we open inventory, seeing intel and open capsule
My battery still drain so fast using Prime. Compress your animation or add some "Low Detail Mode" for low end device :)

Speedy startup, which will greatly keep me playing during my walks. Otherwise, why would I open the app with 30 second to start during my 3 min walk?

* Far more contrast. It is difficult to see everything in bright light. Maybe even a 'retro' view so it looks like Redacted.
* The app is blueish. Make it configureable to switch to greenish
* More contrast!
I would like to see next in prime the functionality that shows the closest portals when there is no portals visible in the screen.

Extra passcode Tab, navigate to Portal, Portal jumping in the Portal view, stats sharing, click on map => XMP, navigate, New Portal

For me, that's it!
Thanks very much!
Why do all of you want navigation? I always found that to be less than useless for me and tended to get in the way
If it has a redacted mode that is fast like redacted and has all functions like redacted but not all bugs like redacted.
Speed lock, in prime you can walk and get it, no logic to that.
Move attack info, now there is no way to see what you are trying to do, all info is right on the portal you are on.
When linking, why would you want to spin the view? If you are in a new area you have noooo ide about where your portal was
I prefer redacted because
- it is faster
- it does not need that much battery power
- it does not need that much mobile data
- it has a more serious surface
- it is a well developed stabil running Software
- i am used to it and i see no Advantage for me or my play to use prime (please don't even think about using this reason in a not Player friendly way to force us to change)
So: tell me why should i use Prime? At the moment i am not sure if i will still play when i have to change - and since i started 1539 days ago i missed no daily hack.
Katurak - Resistance Germany - Level 16
Access to OPR and Mission Creator for Prime users, as they cannot log in to either.
One of the marked Portals is neutral the other one blue - nothing more to say
I'm very happy with REDACTED. I can do anything. maybe, if REDACTED comes with a one-finger feature, there's no need for prime.
FOREVER REDACTED !!!👊👊👊

Hi,
Can you add an option to disable the pop up of "acquired items"
Please :)
quick capture of portals by pressing the screen
Pleace
Navigation button!

Portal edits. There are portals that need to be fixed or removed (no longer present) that I still need to use redacted for. Can't add new pictures either.
Force sync button and wake up without unlock phone.
The feature where the portals start showing up with compass and distance when you are nearby.
Turn off sound when we open inventory, seeing other agent, capsule pickup BGM. How if you made a new page and not "pop-up" when we open inventory, seeing intel and open capsule
