The +Theta Global Campaign is now visible in the Campaign tab!

@IUENG_Extra

Agents, we have observed a significant resurgence in Machina activity. Reports indicate a return to previous levels of expansion and Portal control. The observed weakening was, as some researchers theorized, a temporary phase. We acknowledge the rapid shift and are re-evaluating our strategies.

Ingress has released Update 2.164.1 into the App Stores!

The team is preparing to move over to Niantic Spatial! This update was released to aid with the transition and likely has a few code changes for that. After this update the team has mentioned that the regular 2 week update cycle will likely be disrupted for a bit, and the next update will remove Facebook as a log in method.

@IUENG_Extra

Even though the Wayfarer split is happening today a new Wayfarer Challenge has been announced, with an OPR Live badge tick as a reward for Ingress Agents!

@IUENG_Extra

4 hour warning! In about one burnout period Niantic will disable new submissions and edits for Portals and Missions. This will be your last chance for a while to directly affect the game board until a new system is in place.

@IUENG_Extra

Nominations, edits, Campfire and the Niantic Profile have been removed from the Scanner. Scans and reporting Portals as invalid still work.

@IUENG_Extra

✔️ OPERATION CLEAR THE BACKLOG

Brian Rose, Game Director for Ingress shared a post on Twitter asking for help clearing out the backlog of Portal Nominations before the move to Niantic Spatial!

If you have problems logging in or linking accounts, remember that we are about 30 minutes into a 6 hour maintenance where some stuff is suspended. This also includes distance tracking.

After these 6 hours are over everything should work as normal again.

Logging into the Mission Authoring Tool has been switched to Niantic Spatial, and Facebook has been removed as an option. As of right now, the Intel Map still points to Niantic Inc. with Facebook as an option.

@IUENG_Extra

This change has also been brought over to the Intel map! As such, it is no longer possible to log into Intel with a Facebook login.

This change has also temporarily broken the login flow when using IITC Mobile via the app. If you're still logged in, it should continue to work, but until an update is released it seems like you will not be able to log into IITC.

@IUENG_Extra

Thank you for your patience. Account linking and unlinking with Sign in with Google and Sign in with Apple, new account creation, and Adventure Sync distance tracking and nearby alerts are back online. Please note that you will need to re-enable Adventure Sync via the Ingress Settings menu.

The Ingress Mission Creator Tool is currently still offline and we’ll continue working to re-enable it in the next several days. New Portal nominations and edits have been paused until our new solution under Niantic Spatial is ready.

New Ben Jackland 2025 Bundle now available in store.
