I was wondering where are the app updates being posted?

They really just need to push the stuff out and not care about iOS. They are missing out on being the app to go to. Now there's poketrade.me for trading lists and there's an app, and the GO Ranger app just came out and is brilliant with the amount of information available on there and in a great format. This is what the Silph Road app was going to be (you can see the Raid and Egg buttons in the "beta" app, for example, that say feature coming later) but the app as it is now is just for checking in on community day. Barely anyone cares in my community about Silph Road at the moment, and I was really hoping their app would come out, be an amazing resource, and everyone would get on board with handshakes and such too. Sadly we got the hype about the beta and then silence.

This! The silence bugs me. I dont really know why because I know even if they said "hey still hitting the same issue new ETA on update is two weeks. " I'd be happier.

Lol This is like the millionth time this is posted, the iOS app is not approved by Apple and probably won’t be for awhile

Sorry for the repeat. But have they given etas for the features being released on android or the beta?

They said they'd push out the trading marketplace and other features when the app was live for both iOS and Android, when the Apple app is out of beta, expect new features, but who knows when that will happen.

Ah thank you. That is the bit of info that I was missing.

I imagine those things are a lower priority than getting the app approved for Apple devices
I imagine theoretically if they cant get approved on Apple, whats the point updating the app if only half the target audience will see it

Super valid point. However, pogo watch app is only for iOS, fortnite isn't on android. You're logic is on point and I'm not being sarcastic but it seems that some take their losses and push forward.

There have been multiple daily posts about the silph app not being in Apple.
Its something that people are very excited to experience
Which is why I assume the silph team are prioritizing that over new features.
Apple watch was a marketing tactic (and probably not feasible on the number of different android watches)
Fortnite isnt on Android because they are attempting to bypass the Google store and avoid paying 30% to google for micro transactions

The app needs to be approved by Apple and they are having troubles with this.
