AMA Answers for November have been published! There will be no AMA in December due to the holidays.

General
● VR Link Amps won’t be back in the Portal Network anytime soon.
● Using a ADA Refactor or Jarvis Virus on a portal won’t make it count as a Unique Portal Capture, though you can complete a mission waypoint by capturing a Portal with a flipcard.

Ingress Prime Issues
● Niantic is aware of the scanner not working under 2G connection.
● Linking possible after reaching the 8 outbound links limit is being looked into.

Ingress Prime FRs
● The team is working on a personalization feature for the avatar on the map.
● Developers will look into the possibility of optionally unlocking the app from its 60fpsframe rate on capable devices.
● An “Automatic Filter” (which automatically recycles certain items, ed.) has been discussed by the team. It might be introduced in the game as part of a subscription
service.
● Adventure Sync will be implemented in the game. After this is done, it will be possibleto introduce a Capsule which duplicates items based on walked Kilometers.

Events
● Niantic “has every attention to release a schedule of upcoming events with anacceptable lead time to avoid last minute travel plans”. Unfortunately, though, a
release date for Anomaly Dates is not known yet.
● Events such as IntelOps and OPR live are being reviewed. They have not been heldfrequently lately and ticking their medal up is pretty difficult.

Wayfarer/OPR
● Nothing is planned to encourage reviews, at the moment.
● Two guides have been created and reorganized: Potentially Confusing Candidates
Acceptance Criteria Log

NIA OPS/Policy
● Claimed usernames are not going to be available for re-use.
