Scam

Constantly losing remote raid passes. This is a scam

The Best App Ever

so I used this app like Back in 2023-2024 but this app is amazing

Notification settings are awful

They need to fix notification settings badly. This thing will spam you with hundreds of notifications from groups you have “muted”

Map does not show Gyms or Active Raids

This is such a pointless app… No active raids, or even gyms, especially during GoFest are showing up on the Campfire map.

Hasn’t been working

Won’t connect to any raids just searches for ever, or when it does it glitches and will say raid not found and loop

why is this an app FOR KIDS?

in what way is making an entire app to encourage pokemon go players primarily children to meet up safe? why am i getting policed for my language on an app that kids shouldnt be using? pokemon go itself? i GET IT theres no chat feature, no actual meet ups other than walking or driving somewhere to catch pokemon but actually having the ability to text someone most likely an adult when youre a child to meet up possibly alone… isnt concerning? i shouldnt need to police my cursing bc NO CHILD SHOULD HAVE THE ABILITY TO TEXT A RANDOM PERSON N MEET W THEM. thats actually concerning that children can even join this app at all. this is just absolute irresponsible seeing how no parents actually go through their kids phones or know what’s going on in their lives.

Raid time out

Has anyone one else tried to host a raid only to get enough people to join then realise that the raid has ended the have to decline all?

Please don’t waste our time

The queuing time is too long; it is not possible to invite friends within the app; the matchmaking system is not user-friendly; and it is not possible to select your favourite Pokémon for a match.

Sign in bug

The app asks you to put in your birthdate even before signing up and it doesn’t let you go back further than 2025. That’s ridiculous and I will not be trying this app again.

Pretty good but needs some updates

It works well enough for Pokémon go but it feels like some ui elements need to be updated. Like how you can only invite 5 people but now you can invite 10. Also it lags and location isn’t accurate sometimes.

Please add

This app is good and vey helpful for raiding pokemon but i would recomend that you have a list of what people are hosting or to make it so you can search for specific raids and it would only show what you filtered it to

Garbage

trash

Thank you

Got a moltras first 30 of installation

Spam notifications

The amount of unsolicited notifications is crazy. Every chat/channel that I mute, I still get notifications. If I completely disable notifications then I don’t hear from messages from my friends. Useless platform

I paid for nothing basically

So I bought Niantic campfire because I wanted to connect in my local area for raids/PVE. So when I bought it, and I got it, I can’t use it because I’m too young/not that young. So now I purchased this app for basically nothing. I am a dedicated player and I can’t use it. So that’s why it’s a 1 star review. And I know it’s to stop me from chatting with potentially bad people, but I’m a dedicated player not that young and i wasted my money. I’m disappointed kind of.

Raids

I can do 1* by myself, but when I join a mega or 5* raids. I have errors, loading or joining the raids. I’ve tried for 3-days & keep getting errors

Used to be good app

App used to be great but then I tried to use the app and. My. Account was gone and it made me make a new one. Did that and now it’s saying download Pokémon go. Been trying together support for over a week for this and nothing very disappointed as I used this app everyday for raids and whatnot help would be appreciated thanks

More regions support is needed

Please add the app into Kazakhstan App Store region. I have to swap Apple accounts just to keep this app updated and it’s really annoying.
