Ingress Prime

Ingress transforms the real world into the landscape for a global game of mystery, intrigue, and competition.
Category Price Seller Device
Games Free Niantic, Inc. iPhone, iPad, iPod

Our future is at stake. You must choose a side.

A mysterious energy has been unearthed by a team of scientists in Europe. The origin and purpose of this force is unknown, but some researchers believe it is influencing the way we think. We must control it or it will control us.

“The Enlightened” seek to embrace the power that this energy may bestow upon us. “The Resistance” struggle to defend, and protect what’s left of our humanity.

Install Ingress and transform your world.

The World is the Game
Move through the real world using your iOS device and the Ingress app to discover and tap sources of this mysterious energy. Acquire objects to aid in your quest, deploy tech to capture territory, and ally with other players to advance the cause of the Enlightened or the Resistance.

Strategy
The struggle is being played out globally. Track the progress of players around the world, plan your next steps, and communicate with others using an Intelligence map.

Form Alliances
The struggle to save the planet spans the entire world. Groups of people acting together can be more effective than individuals acting alone. Cooperation across neighborhoods, cities, and countries will be needed to achieve the ultimate victory.

Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Broken App
MadeYouClick

Game won’t even open anymore since they forced players to use prime. Instant crash on opening, have tried hundreds of times.... iPhone XS Max


Don’t waste your time
jedi11209

UNBAN SinisterFlootsy or the 1 Star stays. The devs of this game lean unfairly for the resistance, and pay more attention to PoGo. Niantic’s GM’s are morons. 1 Star, have a nice day. Also Multi-accounters run wild But the GM’s punish people on comm for speaking the truth.


Prime is the superior scanner
Bonekrunch

Many of the “problems” with Prime have been fixed over the past several months. There are numerous improvements to the UI compared to the old scanner. Linking is faster and glyphing is faster on Prime. I think a lot of the whining I see about Prime is a bunch of old school players who are resistant to change. It only took me a week to learn the new UI and within two weeks, the old scanner seemed clunky and slow in comparison.


Can't create account without Facebook or Google
BlahQ1248111622

When I try to sign up, the only options presented are "create an account with Facebook" or "create an account with Google." I don't want to increase my reliance on either of those companies, and I don't want to give Niantic my social media information. Why is there no option to create an account with an email and password?


The “New” App is awful!!!!
Savvy Jay

I’ve been playing this game for 4 years and I’ve had an Awesome time!! I discovered so many new places and met some great people along the way. It’s been my daily app for fun and navigating around looking for new portals. This new app is awful!!! The map and portals are terrible to view. It’s so difficult to see anything and now the Scanner Redacted has now been DELETED! I’m out.. this really stinks because I’ve had so much fun playing this game over 4 years. Now I feel like I just wanted my time. Such a huge disappointment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Every tap now causes vibration
Realdasho

With this most recent update, every tap now causes device vibrations. It is not only very irritating and an additional, unnecessary battery drain, it’s also very confusing and disorienting because prior to this update there were only vibrations to alert the user that something was happening, like being attacked by an enemy portal. Please change it back or create an option to turn off the superfluous vibrations. Also, there needs to be a way to earn CMU by playing the game (without the need to purchase it) or another way to obtain frackers and beacons.


Wow.
entertainmentjunky

Prime should be a case study in how to kill a good game. Take a flawed, but much loved game. Release a new UI that is almost unusable, and pretend it is really really awesome! Rerelease the original UI to staunch the bleeding just long enough to “fix” the new one. Then arbitrarily re-kill the original UI because, well, Prime is just so awesome. It really really is. Only took me 30 minutes to log in today, it killed the battery on my phone an hour later, and I still have no idea what the hell I have in my inventory... can’t wait to see how them unimprove it next!!!


It’s time to move on
HarleyQuinn42

Ingress became a way of life for many when it came out back in 2012. The communities and adventures made because of this app are beyond belief. However, there were problems in redacted with the actual game play and with the revamping because of the switch to unity, most agents have been left heartbroken and discouraged. You can’t see a thing, takes forever to do the most basic tasks and eat battery like no other. It wasn’t perfect in redacted but never once did I hear someone say they wanted new animations and longer lag. The inability to play on remote portals for a reasonable about of data usage changes the global game. It’s time to move on


No longer a simple, user friendly interface
Millificent P.

I’m a long time Ingress player who was accustomed to the original now ‘redacted’ scanner. It was simple and straightforward to use. The Prime scanner is anything but easy to use, and a big drain on battery life. No longer a fan.


Keep updating the old client please
Egor Ka

Still believe that old Ingress client app should be updated and this unfortunate UI experiment should be sunset, not the other way around.
