Niantic Campfire

This app is a clunky behemoth. It is not as huge as PoGo, but they both force updates usually within a day after any minor release. That is very annoying! "Chat" interface is rudimentary and awkard. Knocking off stars: it is impossible to search for a group. Getting a list of groups that are farther away is close to impossible. Even when you join the group, it is not shown if the group badges do not fit across the screen. No way to access those groups.

Messages randomly decide that they can't be sent and you aren't given the option to copy and resend them. The raiding queue never works. When you check into meetups you are now forced to pick one reward path instead of being able to select from multiple. Barely anyone who plays Niantic games uses the app, as it is never advertised. Alot of these features should have been built into games like Pokemon GO in the first place, instead of horribly constructed in a separate app. Disappointing.

I really like the app for a variety of reasons, especially connecting users. However, it could be more user friendly by fixing things like member search and adding things like the ability to sort group members. It would also be nice if you could link Campfire messaging to POGO, so you can click a friend and message them without having to search for them on Campfire, which also doesn't seem to work.
