If there was a mode in Prime which didn't have as many animations (portal glow that doesn't move, no white scanner blips etc.) I'd be far happier to use it. As things stand I'm likely to retire when forced to use Prime. It makes me almost ill looking at it -- my eyeballs!
Besides crashing bugs, my other biggest issue is with the categories in inventory -- if there were words instead of the icons that look so similar, it would be so much easier to find categories, and I really liked having e.g. Mods or Resonators or Weapons as a single grouping in the old scanner, rather than having to scroll through all types of items.
If this post had been about 3 months ago id have agreed, but prime has moved on leaps and bounds since then that for the majority of my usage its the main goto client.
Anyone not using it and solely using redacted is fooling themselves that it will continue and hurting their gameplay in the long run.
Start using prime now, get used to the difference in glyph sizes, the new button layout and start learning the new muscle memory now.
Is it perfect - no, but it is very playable and getting better all the time
Prime has very bad graphics for me. It is not clear at all, there is no sufficient contrast to view portals, XM, items dropped or everything else. No possibility to view clearly who make last action from the logs. Of course Prime as meny interesting and useful new function but without a clear UI I'm not encouraged to play ingress with Prime. So please make the background black, the XM, portals and resonators brighter. I really think this is a problem Niantic have to solve.
I also would like long press menú shortcut for deploy and hack no key. Without these things please maintain REDACTED till I die.
Prime is getting better, and it’s leaps-and-bounds better than the first release version. It’s my primary now, but it still lacks in areas that are important to me, such as COMM and field opacity.
@Gaidon you are right about COMM, it really sucks, i can't read "backwards" in time to know what happened in my city! Is this the new "great" app that Niantic wants to enforce on us?
I dont know about other places. But where i live, in some areas signal is very low. If they remove redacted, we are screwed with prime.
Spending time to move to a certain place with low signal and getting a forever "secure log in" (or like that) to NOT log in. And redacted saved my life.
Thats why i will be forever grateful to redacted. It might be old fashioned or whatever. But a game must be playable even with a real low signal.
@d3v1lkiss we want to improve Prime performance in low signal areas. Can you tell us what is the device you are using, cell connection (2G, 3G...), and can you tell the throughput of your connection (upload/download/latency)?
@d3v1lkiss whaou seriously that Prime works less well than redacted in areas where the signal is bad? yes @NianticScot it is a very big problem that certain portal will be inaccessible if you forced Prime... Does Niantic think to extend redacted a moment?
@MrVulgaire if youre enl youre invited to come and try prime in specific areas. If youre res u can too but i make sure to delete your ingress redacted before :P hahaha

@NianticScot my phone is ZTE. Got 2/3g config at phone. And i dont know about the throughput of my connection.
For me, Prime has been working great. It's a tiny bit of a bummer that agent stats doesn't work with Prime yet, but it's not a necessary app. I am sad to hear that others are having trouble with Prime.
But honestly, unless Prime completely fails for EVERYONE, I don't see it going away anytime soon. I look forward to the continued improvements and also whatever fun Niantic has up its sleeve.
Thank you, Niantic, for this amazing game/not-a-game.
There are a few features on prime I like: mass key delete, the recharge, single finger map rotation, battery saver mode, new submission format. But overall I wish they could scrap it and add the nice new features to redacted. I understand they can’t and why, but it would be nice to work towards making Prime at least look more like redacted. I very much dislike the “skin” or look of the map(looks blurry to me), and fields/links/portals. The menus/buttons/setup is ok, but the look just bothers me to no end. Especially the Smokey portal pictures.

Totally agree!
@ShadowRevenge 👌

A redacted skin for Prime would be lovely :D

@BunnyPrime yes a redacted skin is perfect solution 🤩
@Theisman prime don't work on my galaxy S8....
Feel free to add your feedback to the App Feedback session and the team would be happy to take a look.
@MrVulgaire
Any particular error as works fine on mine
Prime is improving every single release and it will be the only scanner soon.
I welcome this change and look forward to the back end changes that can happen once redacted is dead.
@Theisman i try again now and it's work but it's ugly 🤣

If Prime didn't crash and require rebooting as much as it does, it might sway people to use it more.
@Cux I agree, there is a real graphic problem. a skin redacted and the problem is fixed
@tek1 yes Prime crash really often
I hate Prime i want Redacted! It's a 15 lvl veteran ENL who speaks!
@karrenzazes I hate Prime i want Redacted! It's a 15 lvl veteran ENL who speaks!
@NianticScot so you think cheating isn't an issue anymore with Prime?

@karrenzazes they will surely impose the same thing on intel....
