Ratings and Reviews
There’s no notification sound
That’s a pretty bad thing to leave out considering when you’re queuing for raids you need to respond within a minute.
Needs work
Useful for seeing where raids are within driving distance. But that’s about it. The system for trying to host raids is really bad, with preset chat options that don’t cover all situations, and no way of dealing with things like someone pulling out with 10 seconds to go and killing the group’s chances. It’s really rather clumsy. There are existing options and this isn’t going to make people switch to the official product.
Not safe…
I’ve been playing Pokémon since 2018. I’m not too fond of the campfire app allowing people to chat; there is no privacy anymore, it’s now too easy for predators to get to women and children and see their locations and it’s now too easy for people to cheat on one another. Too easy for people to be bullied and singled out. It’s no longer just about Pokémon anymore. It’s now more about people “connecting” in equally negative ways as positive. I personally feel this app is dangerous.
