Getting better, slowly

I really liked the game Niantic originally released. Yes, it was buggy, servers crashed constantly, but it was really fun when it worked. Then they killed the only in-app way to track Pokemon by removing the "footsteps" tracking feature (it just showed everything within an unspecified range). Game fans created third party websites to give other fans the only real way to find Pokemon. Niantic went after those sites and now most, if not all, have been shut down.

Other hang ups include the very limited functionality of the Apple Watch companion app (almost never sends notifications about Pokestops and absolutely not sends notifications about Pokémon, even when notifications are toggled on), and constant crashes and disconnections from the Pokémon Go +. You have to keep the app running and phone turned on to stay connected to the Plus, which severely drains the battery, and diminishes the utility of the +.

The Easter event is appreciated with the double xp and nice hatches.

I hope Niantic changes, and starts treating their players with more respect (minor text fixes are BS changelog descriptions, and while they may think its cute, its rather insulting to those of us who want to know if we just got screwed over) because this should be a 5 star game and has so much potential.
