A recent update caused a new problem where the collection screen would scroll to the top after each evolution or transfer. For players trying to get maximum value out of their lucky eggs, this was a bit of a nightmare scenario. The community loudly complained about the issue and Niantic was quickly on the case. A fix for this bug and a few other quality of life improvements are the focus of the patch that is currently being rolled out to Android and iOS devices.
This is the description of the latest update from Niantic:
This patch has a lot of players breathing a sign of relief, but Niantic has lots of other bugs or feature requests to work on next. In order to keep a grasp on the large playerbase, the company needs to continue improving the game every month.
Resolved a bug that caused the Pokémon collection screen to scroll to the top after evolving, transferring, or renaming a Pokémon.
Added the ability to sort the Pokédex by region.
Improved incubator sorting order when selecting an incubator.
Improved the way Pokémon scale throughout the app.
Various bug fixes and performance updates.
It’s unlikely that the logged in users will ever reach those summer 2016 numbers again, but the game is still incredibly profitable. Keeping the players happy and busy will help Niantic to keep that money rolling in for as long as possible.
Pokemon GO is available now on Android and iOS devices in select regions.
