Niantic stated on the Ingress Forum their intention to introduce the Niantic Profile feature in Ingress.
Players of that other game with Pocket Monsters may know that this feature lets everyone see your codename and level. At release, Niantic will add a control to hide them from your Niantic Profile, while leaving it hidden by default in the meantime.
When the feature will be initially introduced to the game, the Niantic Profile link will only be visible to the Agent owning it and not by other Agents as a privacy measure.
Is this the start of new social features in Ingress such as a friendship system? Stay tuned for more updates!

Niantic has granted all Agents a free Niantic Beacon to honour and remember Agent Totomad, from Japan, who suddenly passed away on July 22nd.
As there is no fixed time for a Beacon Lighting, we invite you to light yours and post a screenshot with the hashtag #BeaconforTotomad.
From our staff, the deepest condolences to their friends and family.

Niantic has re-enabled Location Edits on Portals, although limited to around 15 meters of movement.
This will hopefully reduce cases of Portals moved in totally different parts of the world.
Edit: Just like before deactivation, edits are limited to L12+ Agents only.

Niantic has now officially expressed on Wayspots being movable again in a 10 meters radius, explaining the reasons behind their modifications to the edits system.
If you believe a Wayspot should be moved more than this amount, you can start a new thread on the Wayfarer Forum. If you witness an abuse of Location Edits you can report it using this form.

Ingress Prime v2.53.2 has been announced, and will be coming to your scanners in the next few days.
This update's focus is on app reliability under weak signal conditions. Ingress should now be handling slow connections better.
Among the bugfixes, we can see that:
• The FIRE button for weapons is now disabled when no connectivity is detected
• The Scout Controller area displays the Recursed flair only for Recursed Agents (not for everyone)
• On iOS, system gestures from the lower edge of the screen have now immediate response.
• Battery Saving mode is now effective since starting the game, if enabled in the Settings menu.
Make sure to give your feedback on the Forums to receive more and more useful updates!

Today, Agents @juju4492 and @shooters42 met in Saint-Étienne to realize this great cross-faction fieldart in support to the Beirut population.
The design depicts a boat, reminiscent of the port of Beirut, symbolically bringing them our love and thoughts, and the iconic Libanese cedar, also appearing on their flag.
The art is still visible on the Intel map! Congratulations, Agents!

Niantic decided the following 2 temporary changes will be returning to their original values, effective in 1 week, starting Wed, Aug 26:
- Portal decay rate will return to its original 15% per day, to increase the Portal turnover rate
- Portal hack burnout will return to its original 4 hacks, and can still be increased through Multi-Hack mods if Agents want to hack the same Portal repeatedly.
Other temporary changes still remain in effect for now.
⚠️ Please stay safe while playing Ingress, keeping social distancing, wearing facemasks and respecting the guidelines from your governments.

Niantic announced the newest version of Ingress Prime: v2.54.1!
In this version, some validation is implemented for Portal Scans. The Scanner will now detect excessive darkness and lack of movement.
Niantic also stated their intention of reducing Scan encoding time in future releases. Scout Controller Onyx will also be lowered to 12,000 points.
As a measure to reduce spam on the COMM, Agents with levels 1-7 will not be able to post messages from the Intel Map, only via the Scanner App.
