The release notes for the new Ingress Prime version have been released! v2.70.1 should come to your scanner in the next few days.
In this version, the team focused on fixing the Kinetic Capsules, which now remain open to run a new Program after claiming an Item from them.
In addition, good news for Chinese Agents: the translations for capturing and losing Scout Controller status have been switched to show the correct ones.
Finally, the team is aware of an issue with the "Activities" tab in COMM, which shows the oldest update first when entering via the Map Screen preview. A temporary workaround is to fiddle with the distance slider or to enter the comm by swiping the main menu button to the right.

Agents around the world are reporting that Scout Controller Bonus Portals might have shifted!
We're currently looking for more reports to confirm this. Leave a comment if you can see the same on your scanner!

While trying to expand the number of Wayspots in areas with limited playable area and a lack of Wayfarer reviewers, some accepted portals missed important quality checks.
Now Niantic is working to identify and remove those portals, and would like the help from the players. If you see a portal with a title or a description with inappropriate language, has no safe access, or doesn't meet Wayfarer criteria, you can flag it to the Niantic team using this form.
⚠ The form is only for portals located in Brazil, Mexico, Philippines, Poland, Russia, Thailand, Turkey
The Wayfarer team is adding more stringent quality and workflow checks to ensure that similar situations don’t occur anymore.

In response to the many issues experienced by iOS users with the C.O.R.E. subscription renewal, the support chatbot at support.ingress.com now contains a separate option for reporting.
It is suggested to open a ticket on the support site instead of opening a bug report on the Ingress community forum.

Many agents have experienced issues with the Agent stat tied to the Operation Sentinel Global Challenge. Niantic has advised that the issues are now resolved, and captures have been counted retroactively up to the start of the event.
Additionally, the Event Designer for this Challenge (NianticChiaki) has clarified that, initially, only the 1st and 8th Resonator deployed were entitled to receive double AP but, due to an internal communication issue all Resonators deployed have received the bonus. The 2x AP bonus will remain active for all Resonators deployed.

Niantic published the Release Notes for Ingress Prime v2.72.1, coming shortly to your devices!
The main focus of this release is the upgrade for the game to Unity 2019 LTS.
Among the fixed bugs, the Mission Waypoint description was moved so as to not block the Layers button, emoji now displays correctly in the COMM, the top crash on Android received a speculative fix and notifications on iOS have been fixed so as to not display <null> anymore and to display the correct Portal Title instead.
