I'm level 15, I was just extended the opportunity to do portal scanning. Anyone else?

I got the prompt too (level 13) after submitting a photo to a portal. I enabled it, but it's greyed out and says I have to be level 16.

Probably just a bug where it doesn't check if you're high enough level.

I was able to get the recursion prompt too and it wouldn't let me recurse of course

Where are you? Country.

Are you actually able to scan, or did you just get the notification?

Edit: just tried it myself with a nearby portal. Looks like players under 16 are able to scan one time after submitting a new picture.

When I selected OK, I was presented with the opportunity to "begin scan" of the selected portal.

I wasnt close enough to take a scan and I canceled out of the prompt thinking I could get to it again later. Nope.

I was given the option to participate as a LVL 10 agent a week ago. So, who knows what’s going on with this feature.

Did it actually work, though? I got the prompt at level 13 but it won't let me actually use it once I enable it.

It allowed me to begin scanning, but I was at a chapel, and didn’t want to walk around the entire building, so I exited. Unsure if it would have let me actually send it if I tried. I’ll try to find a smaller portal that could use a full scan and get back to you on that.
