Buggy spyware. Every single time you open the app it demands you turn on "adventure sync", which means sharing your location with the app at all times. Not one but two pop-ups every time you play the game "reminding" you to turn it on. Doesn't matter that I've already said no LITERALLY a thousand times, they INSIST that they have access to my location 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. 365 days a year. It also crashes every time you try to catch your first Pokémon since launching the app.

Since Scopely took over. The game has changed. Less shiny's, less perfects, less items from Pokestops, less items from gift bags. Less featured seasonal stickers. Even when buying the "delux" raids pass to increase shiny odds. It was very limited, and specific. I saw absolutely no shinys with at least 10 raids, and multiple catches per day during this latest major event. The daily checkin is also very resource heavy, and less skill based. Still can play without money, expect it to be slower

It's come a loooooong way since it's glitchy & limited 1st gen days, but there's still a lot more work to be done. PVP needs a balancing overhaul, prices have almost doubled on everything, and it seems like the pokemon have become harder to catch. Part of me only continues to play because of all the time & money I've dumped into this game over the years, but at least it's an extra way for me and my girlfriend to bond. That, and it DOES still encourage outdoor exercise, despite how greedy it is.
