Operation Green Armadillo

6.2 billion MU over 239 layers was established by the Green Belt Movement and their allies, during the second weekend of October 2025.

Green Armadillo is an operation in memorial of the Nobel laureate Wangarĩ Maathai, the founder of the real world organisation ”Green Belt Movement”.

To aid the Green Belt Movement in their work for a greener environment, you could give a gift of planting a tree in Kenya to a friend or a loved one.

📝 INVALID PORTAL REPORTS

Invalid Portals are now able to be reported again following the latest Ingress update.

What’s not mentioned in the update notes is that you can now add a photo to your Invalid Portal Report to help highlight the issue just like you can on Pokémon GO in a totally unique idea by Niantic Spatial!

We're currently investigating an issue affecting some Android users. If you're seeing any "Ingress isn't responding" error messages, temporarily disabling Adventure Sync may help. Go to Settings > Adventure Sync > disable Distance Tracker and Nearby Alerts.

The team is aware of the current issue regarding being unable to claim Bounties.

Ingress Prime was updated to Version 2.177.1 last Friday with the Update slowly making its way to Agents around the world.

This update returns the menu for reporting invalid Portals, but also adds a new feature with it: You can now attach a picture when reporting a Portal! This picture will be used by the team to determine the eligibility of a Portal on the Game Board, together with the comment you can add during the reporting flow. This picture is optional and you can still report a Portal without it.

A small change was also observed when you are looking at your own profile, now hiding the medal requirements you'd need to reach the next Level when you already have Recursed as that means you must already have the required medals to meet the level up requirements once again.

@IUENG_Extra

The team has identified all affected players from the DST clock change and will grant them 60 adding +Beta Tokens.

OPR & SEER ARE BACK!

Get ready to shape the map again. Operation Portal Recon (OPR) is returning to Ingress next Monday, November 10th, starting with L16 and Recursed Agents!

Plus, the Seer medal is being reinstated!

Read the full announcement for details, including the start time and the new OPR link: https://ingress.com/news/2025-opr-revive

#Ingress #OPR #Seer #OperationPortalRecon

In preparation for the launch next Monday we are getting reports that the first Portals are now being approved and appearing in Ingress, likely reviewed by Niantic Spatial themselves at the moment!

Ingress is 13! 🚀 Jump into the celebration event (Nov 14–24, 2025) for 2X AP and huge bonuses!
We're leaping to Ingress 3.0 and launching CARGO soon.

Read the full briefing here: https://ingress.com/news/ingress-year-13

#IngressYear13 #Ingress #IngressVoyager

OPR is supposed to launch in an hour...

...but it seems like the gates were opened early! Head over to opr.ingress.com and you should be able to log in!

@IUENG_Extra

Initial things we can observe:

- The website itself is a copy from Wayfarer, so most features are the same and reviewing functions the same as well
- Upgrades have been removed and cannot be applied to Contributions anymore
- The Help Chat from the "Help" tab was removed
- Wayfarer stats were not carried over, restarting from zero
- All past Contributions as well as Contributions after the Wayfarer split are visible on the website
- The setting for "Wayfarer Challenge" was renamed to "OPR Challenge", indicating that Challenges like the ones we know from Wayfarer could also happen under OPR

We are investigating further.

@IUENG_Extra

The Seer medal is going out! It'll likely take a bit to update the badge to the correct tier, so don't panic if you should have unlocked a higher tier already but it is still locked.

@IUENG_Extra

After a few hours, some more information has come to light:

- Once you recieve an agreement in OPR, the Recon badge will immediately tick up as well (assuming your "Agent Rating" is not Poor, although this couldn't be verified yet)
- The first Portals have already been accepted by the community! According to Niantic Spatial, these portals will sync once daily to the Scanner map as they did previously under Wayfarer
- If you have used Wayfarer plug-ins via wayfarer.tools or from elsewhere, most of them also work on OPR. To enable them you'll need to manually edit the script by including // @match https://opr.ingress.com/new/* at the top of the script. If you don't want to tamper with them you can also wait for a potential update by the script authors themselves
