Niantic Campfire

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.

Overall its okay at launch.It's a solid concept. Wish the map would show what team had control of the gyms. Wish the interface was easier to navigate. Finally, there should be a way to overlay on top of pokemon go. I Want to be able to see text and convers as I'm making my way to a raid. If the developers continue to work on this app, it could be a great addition to their games.

This app could be a lot better with minor improvements. The first problem has to do with timing and distance defaults. the app only lets you light a flare at a nearby stop for 10 minutes. At the same time, it will notify you of any flares lit within a several mile radius. In many cases, it is simply not possible to get to a location that has a lit flare before the 10 minute timer runs out. This defeats a main purpose of the app. The icons are also not intuitive, and the chat feature lags a lot.
