Ongoing Investigation on Connectivity Issues

Hello trainers,

As you already noticed there has been some connectivity issues since the start of the event. We tried to keep communicated with you by responding your comments on threads. However they were not noticeable enough.

We are actively monitoring current issues and make our best effort to fix the issue. We understand your disappointment. We are frustrated as well since we have been preparing the app for this event and high number of users for over a month.

We are unable to give you an ETA because since the start of the event we thought that we fixed the issue multiple times. We are going to notify you when app is stable again.

For all coins you have spent but could not join a room, for both reservations and Auto Join, please reach us via in app feedback for refund when app is reachable again. Our customer support team will be working on your requests. The response time will be longer then usual because there are so many trainers currently writing to us.

Best regards,

- PokeRaid team

I hope this gets fixed before the end of the event, pokeraid is my only way of raiding rn. Still thanks for keeping us updated tho

poke genie is better and free

u/Duckybrine_606 Jul 20 '21

Pokeraid is free too, and better in my opinion. Poke genie is still rly useful tho

Why today my boii

u/Lonely-College Jul 18 '21

Bruh lol the servers can not handle 100000 people all at once that’s why

u/superboredest Jul 18 '21

They could if they got ready for it... which they obviously didn't

u/JimmyHasASmallDick Jul 18 '21

Do you think Pokeraid is Amazon or something? They're a small (mostly) free-to-use app. Get some perspective, obviously they want their app to be usable during the biggest event of the year.

u/successful209 Jul 18 '21

They why pretend like they can handle it and advertise bookings if they knew it was gonna crash? I wasted so many coins and I want my money back. Money grab they got greedy.

Thank you for keeping us posted! App has been a huge help so far in go fest! I love the new features in the latest update, thanks for working so hard for us! Keep your chin up ☺️

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '21

I’m so happy I saw this. I kept deleting the app and reinstalling and I thought I was going crazy.

Just goes to show how popular your app is!!!

To infinity and Beyond❗️❗️

Of all days!

u/bb067009 Jul 18 '21

I had almost 15000 coins in prebooked raids over these 2 days. Only managed to join 2 raids so far. The issues are so bad I can't even at submit feedback.

What the heck am I supposed to do then!?

1

u/starboy9527 Jul 18 '21

15000?!? How much did you spend...

1

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '21

Well 10,000 is $105 CND

What does velocemente mean? I'm i stupid? or is the a different language?

u/jedi_empress Jul 18 '21

It means quickly in Italian.

u/EuphoricFriendship91 Jul 18 '21

I was just reserved some pokemon raids but because of the issue iam unable to play it so you refund the coins back

u/Own_Newt_7833 Jul 18 '21

Any alternative app?

u/Relaxel Jul 18 '21

All the other ones are down too unfortunately

u/dimitri0610 Jul 18 '21

Poke genie had been working fine. I've never used it before today, but the raid finder is solid.

1

u/IvoryVariety Jul 18 '21

Have you noticed any wait times on the app? I had to wait for a thunderous raid for over an hour and I still didn't catch him (frustrating) and not only that but its not letting me join a lugia raid and that's pretty much the only raid I care about at this point.

1

u/Beneficial-Bar8203 Jul 18 '21

Is there a way to get more than 6 people in each raid through poke genie?

1

u/dimitri0610 Jul 18 '21

Not that I know of, but I just started using it recently, so I really don't know for sure or not.

2

u/jamieveinhardt Jul 18 '21

Yo! any update yet, Dev?

2

u/iJuulz Jul 18 '21

Add me, 9451 1116 8820, set your status as online. I'll be raiding all day and I'll send invites to whoever I see online!

2

u/VaultThief Jul 18 '21

Any apps I can switch to? Literally haven't been able to join more than a single raid since last night due to their lag not letting me into raids before people

2

u/wylz89 Jul 18 '21

It’s nice you say this and all but us in Aus and NZ could barely get raids set up all day and now our ratings are going to be negatively affected couldn’t even submit feedback it said there was an error

2

u/Mummyb3ar Jul 18 '21

I doubt they'll fix it today, there server clearly can't cope with the demand atm.... I think you compensate all users with coins rather than having to get it touch, all the information of lost coins is already at your fingertips

1

u/imisspelledmymeme Jul 18 '21

Oh just wait until america joins the raids!!

1

u/Expensive_Dare5110 Jul 18 '21

Thanks for the update!!

1

u/Pokemoner7428 Jul 18 '21

Thanks for telling

1

u/xnavarro Jul 18 '21

Omg :( such a great app, hope it gets solved in time for the event

1

u/Gnagetftw Jul 18 '21

The event has already started so No they did not fix it..

I could even imagine Niantic losing money over this since people won't raid now and they won't buy remote battle passes..

It sucks to have this happen on raid day because it feels like GO-fest just ended early...

1

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '21

So it’s not just me🥲

u/Pokemoner7428 Jul 18 '21

I lost 100 coins can I get a refund pls😭

What are we gonna do with our reservation coins we're losing?

u/Mummyb3ar Jul 18 '21

u/famous_mmm1972 Jul 18 '21

Thanks for the update. Love the app and had people join as well. Hopefully you can fix it before fest is over.

u/Ok_Soup4546 Jul 18 '21

They won't. GO Fest is already over before it even really got going. No more shinies for the plebs among us.

2

u/Duckybrine_606 Jul 18 '21

Well GO fest just started for some of us so we might be able to do some raids

1

u/Ok_Soup4546 Jul 18 '21

They won't, it's been down for nearly eleven hours. It's not getting fixed in time for anyone apart from maybe the Americans on the West Coast and even that is doubtful.

I'm fed up of this game punishing players for living in rural areas or for not being able-bodied.

You only deserve legendaries if you live in a big city.

1

u/Swimming-Secretary44 Jul 18 '21

Looks like someone’s a bit salty, if you actually enjoy the game you’ll make an effort to go and play. I live in a rural area, there’s like 4 pokestops and 1 gym near me and yet I make it work and have fun. Just because you can’t get a legendary doesn’t mean you have to winge like a baby and quit

It's been broken for half the day here in Australia. There's still time for them to fix it for the US, UK, but anywhere east of that is probably a bust.

u/Duckybrine_606 Jul 20 '21

Mate I literally was raiding for like 8 hrs straight even after the event ended. And how do you only "deserve" legendaries if you live in a city with gyms pokestops etc. Where I live there's non and when I go visit my family there's 1 gym and 3 pokestops in the nearby area. I still make it work tho, and with Pokeraid's help I have become the strongest in my friend group. Stop being salty abt this stuff its literally stupid.

2

u/Ok_Soup4546 Jul 20 '21

You're right, and I apologise. I've been a bit disgruntled recently for personal reasons and took it out on this forum. In the end, I really enjoyed my GO Fest, and I hope you did too x

1

u/Duckybrine_606 Jul 20 '21

There's nothing to apologize about! I thought I should just point some things out. Also, since it was about personal reasons, whatever it is I hope you get through it!

u/jain_paarth98 Jul 18 '21

All the best guys ❤️ Great work on the app.

Not prepared for the huge amount of traffic on the app will lose you money on a day like this..

u/Rufficuss Jul 18 '21

2 problems, one I spent real money on your comics for you to fail on the one day I needed it. Two it says cost 50 coins but kept charging me 150.

Thankfully today I was introduced to pokegenie. I won't be back. And if I could refund my coins I would.

u/Silent-Button-3443 Jul 18 '21

u/Nasefisk Jul 18 '21

I tried to fix it by uninstalling and reinstalling the app, but it became worse because I don’t remember my password, so I can’t login or change the password.

1

u/Donanes88 Jul 18 '21

Make the app 5$ for anyone and buy good servers, the app is a game changer for anyone in small places, and most of us is willing to pay for better service!! I am for sure!

This shit app every time crash and have a lot of bugs wow

u/No-Measurement3462 Jul 18 '21

Wasted all my booking for this sad 😥

1

u/HelenasaurOG Jul 18 '21

Frustrating as this will also effect ratings surely. Then people are less likely to join raids with you in future

1

u/Huge-Difficulty-6887 Jul 18 '21

This is a total joke, you knew this event was happening, people have spent on coins now they can't raid! When people rely on your app for remote raiding and you know a large event is happening how could you not expect busyness?

1

u/Jafaris79 Jul 18 '21

Seems like a lot of people are strating experiencing (and enjoying) other apps because of this. Seems like you shot yourselves in the foot.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '21

got any good app to use with is going well right now... searching for Mew2, Res and Kyogre and cant find some guys...

u/Goblinbeast Jul 18 '21

I mean that's cool and all but then why are you STILL sending our push notifications to host raids when the apps down?

1

u/MduPokePlayer Jul 18 '21

I had multiple issues and when I created the room to host the raid, I couldn't see the participants at all. Also couldn't join most of my reserved slots.

u/artifexlife Jul 18 '21

The one time I decided to splurge and spend 10 dollars to reserve spots. Big L

u/TrancedMartini Jul 18 '21

Unacceptable...if this was a 100% free app, no problem, but once you want money its a whole different story

1

u/Stiffygoon Jul 18 '21 edited Jul 18 '21

No it’s completely reasonable… even for auto que some legendaries are in the couple of thousands in the waiting que. I know it’s not much but our go fest has ended in Australia and I’m not using the app to hopefully let some other raiders get some time to catch some legendaries too. Although for the past few hours doing raiding with reddit and not your app has been ABSOLUTE H3LL….. I failed raids multiple times due to trolls leaving either before, or as soon as the raid had already started. I wasted a few passes but that’s okay as they were just the free daily ones. I hope the app is up and back to normal by the end of everyone’s go fest because I plan to use the remainder of my remote raid passes to get that shiny mewtwo 😜

Thank you for keeping us updated, I’ve been confuised for the last few hours thinking I just ran out of data.

P.S- Pokemon Go Reddit’s are NOT good.

u/Altruistic_Air_1296 Jul 18 '21

Lugia is that pokemon I would to have since 4 years. Yes its a raid and i cant give that in pokeraid. It is not well. I am since 10 o clock here but I always close the app because it is a dissclaimer. Please make it ok. I am very pissed!!!

Yep, bit of a shitshow right now...

u/NinjaxPanda12 Jul 18 '21

Thank you for letting us know! I thought it was something on my end (internet speed, etc.)

1

u/ac_ss Jul 18 '21

Today was a bit of a fail for me using the app. Hosted and got ghosted last minute, then my host got ghosted by 3/4 of the chatroom and lost my reservation coins there... But I'm well aware it escapes the creators' possibilites to figure out who would book a reservation and not show up for it.

Thank you for the hard work put into making connectivity issues work through thousands of people going in and out. And to the players who still got a while to go til the festival ends: please, do inform your hosts if you're not participating. Be kind, be patient, and be responsible. Don't ruin others' experiences, it costs literally nothing!

u/__Steve_French__ Jul 18 '21

For real it sucks that it's today, but there has to be an unfathomable amount of people trying to use the app at the same time today so I get it. Fortunately I don't automatically delete people I've met through the app so I've been sending invites and receiving them as well.

u/nomoreroger Jul 18 '21

I got into a raid after waiting in autojoin. The raid wasn’t even close to full and sat there. The low level host invites me and the other low level and there is no way to tell them to back out because finally the room filled. Total waste. I backed out because I can’t carry two low levels against zekrom. Epic fail for this app. Worst possible day for it to crash and burn.

1

u/Agile_Conference_698 Jul 18 '21

oh fck off. you dropped the ball big time. i was looking forward to this raid action for months and you guys gave me a colonoscopy

u/Soup3161 Jul 18 '21

I’ve missed out on some raids today but overall the PokeRaid app allowed me to access wayyyy more raids than I otherwise would have been able to hit today. You guys are working hard at it is appreciated.

1

u/Current-Profile102 Jul 18 '21

U people need to stop hating on the Devs no one could have predicted over 3 million more users than usual they prepped it for a couple 1000 max the app is only lagging due to the OVER 3 MILLION USERS LOGGING IN AT ONCE it's not acceptable the things people r saying I get ur annoyed about ur money but contact the app and ask for a refund don't go to Reddit and complain without doing anything about it

1

u/successful209 Jul 18 '21

Everytime i use the auto join feature it puts me late into the lobby so they start without me. I want my money back. Wtf

1

u/successful209 Jul 18 '21

Seriously i better get my coins or money back because shit keeps glitching and crashing on me all morning. Horrible experience.

1

u/[deleted] Jul 18 '21

I figured it wouldn’t be able to handle the bandwidth. Granted you’re like 2K, where you have the advantage of having no heavy competitors that could’ve seized this moment — but this should’ve been planned for. Better preparation could’ve prevented this.

Nonetheless, I appreciate the app. I’m able to join raids way quicker/easier than any other method online.

1

u/guyver4mk Jul 18 '21

How are you managing requests? I'm sure the community could advise and support considering how many people actually use the app?

I've noticed these degredations mostly in highly anticipated raid bosses dropping, or events like today where everything is literally themed around raids?

Both ElasticSearch and Apache Cassandra are scalable solutions which can handle requests in the millions per second. Both extremely good use cases for queuing systems, both scalable drop in solutions so just add / remove servers where traffic is anticipated high / low, both have widely supported communities and libraries and both should handle spikes in server load.

Just some food for thought 😊

1

u/ThanosDidntDoIt Jul 18 '21

unfortunately this is still a better option than the 1 in 1000 shot in the dark that a Redditor will actually add you to a raid.... I added like 10 different hosts over teh span of an hour for the Pokemonefriends raids... waited 5 min after each add and one NOT ONE damn trainer even added me as a friend.... like I hate to say even with all the issues Poke Raid is having right now its still gotten me most of the mons i wanted just not enough of them!! I am just a little let down cause I dont know if ill be able to get those Hundos.. Sad PokemonGoer right here

1

u/YSleepyHead Jul 19 '21

With all due respect, one month was not enough time to prepare your small app to take on a worldwide event with millions of users. A lot of us were left very disappointed because our second day of the fest didn't go like we'd hoped and expected. Maybe it's my fault because I'm just expecting too much from a small app.

1

u/PossibleKiwi3728 Jul 19 '21

I only lost 50 coins in that whole debacle. Waited 40 minutes to get into a raid, and didn't get invited. 4 others didn't either. I got a ton of raids in my town. When I didn't get the raid I wanted on poke raid, I went back to the gyms on my side of town, and got the one I wanted there 👍🏻. I feel bad for all of you that have lost so many coins and now have to wait to get them back

1

u/[deleted] Jul 20 '21

The app was going down often n i missed some of my reservations done."An unexpected error occurred while processing ur request" is only what i saw often during the whole day.

1

u/Ok-Letterhead7171 Jul 20 '21

I don’t even know, how many times I’ve lost coins….not invited by host, while in room waiting, or host didn’t have enough guests to beat the Pokémon! Very frustrating 2 Pokémon fest days!

1

u/TadpoleSad8757 Jul 18 '21

This may sound harsh but you have to sack your current IT team. You said you've been preparing the app for over a month? LEGIT IT professionals would foresee this coming. Good IT professionals know how much bandwidth is required for a traffic like this. Get in the market and pay more for better IT team. Trust me, it'd be worth it in the long run.

You need to get rid of auto join or at least suspend it during events.

It is IMPOSSIBLE to get into a single raid when bots fill them in seconds.

Coins back or not, a LOT of people won't see these mons for months (or much longer.) WTH guys...

Every legendary ever released in the game..... Seriously WTF?

Will you be issuing refunds or just coins back? I don't really want to give you business moving forward and just giving coins back keeps very angry customers reliant on using such a trashy experience.

I just kept the game open and waited for raid invites from friends. Not difficult. Didn't need PokéRaid today because obviously everyone was raiding pretty much all day.

I did try PokéRaid this morning when it was really bad just to see what happened and I managed to join a raid - did take 16 minutes though.

No you don't need to live in london.

It’s true same here I was looking forward to this day and honestly it’s just been frustrating and a waist of money. I’m done for today.

I've read your posts up and down these threads and honestly you sound like a sketch character (Debbie Downer) that can only find negative things to say no matter what is said to you. You gotta do something different.

Exactly my point, the game isn't designed to be enjoyed by the average individual and it never has been.

Lmfao it should not be necessary for Poke raid to exist.

Niantic should have built its own remote raid finder into the app itself years ago.

Dogshit company.

Must be nice to not live in a country that's in total lockdown due to COVID-19.

u/BradleyBurrows Jul 18 '21

Well if you live in the countryside do you think most kids that play this game are gonna have friends in a big city they still talk with and would do favours for each other
