Pokmon GO Update Replaces Nearby With Sightings Feature

NEW POKEMON GO TRACKING UPDATE EXPLAINED! w/ NintenDome

Niantic has released a new Pokmon GO update, available to those playing the augmented reality app on iOS and Android devices.

While the update seemingly had prioritised delivering bug fixes, it has also changed the Nearby Pokmon tracking feature. This has now been renamed to Sightings, and presents Pokmon that have appeared near to the player with tufts of grass.

Niantic has explained that they are testing a variation of the Nearby Pokmon feature with a subset of users. During this period you may see some variation in the nearby Pokmon UI.

Reddit has been trying to pinpoint exactly how this works. User AlbelTelWicked has produced the most credible theory, in that it scans the players nearby area approximately every 15 seconds and any new Pokmon will appear within the list. If a Pokmon is no longer detected by the scan or if the player moves too far away, it will be removed.

We wont know an exact distance, but they estimate that the scan reaches 700 feet (200 metres) around the player, which is similar in scale to that seen with Nearby.

Pokemon Go Update - iOS 1.1.0 & Google Play 0.31.0 - 3 STEP GLITCH FIXED?? / NERFS & BUFFS

As if it wasnt bad enough that the new Pokmon Go update has removed the games step counter, some players are suffering from a glitch that takes their avatar back to level one.

Hundreds of angry fans took to Twitter to vent their frustration after the latest and biggest update left them back at square one, removing their beloved Pokmon and gathered items.

One social media user noted: My Pokmon Go just reset and I lost everything... Level character, Pokmon... That is it for me. Deleted the app already.

Another said: Went to open my Pokemon game and it"s been reset?!? I am back to level one with no Pokmon or anything?!?

Some have called on Niantic, the games developers, to refund any money spent on the game. (Despite the game being free-to-play, there is the option of spending real money on the in-game currency.)

Players have said logging out of Google Mail on the Safari app will fix the glitch, but this has been untested and unconfirmed.
