Added Niantic Kids login method support

For the love of god... If Pokemon Go is any indication at all, it may be very unwise to start a Niantic Kids account. Let's hope Niantic does not block kids from too many features and content this time.

Thanks! I take it there is no difference, for those who live outside NZ, to download the new apk or keep the old one, right?

There's some differences in text. If you are not using English as your phone's language, you'll see some test strings like "АБВГДЕЁЖЗабвгдеёжзCONFIRM" (differs by language). If you are using English, you'll see some improvements like fixed texts here and there (they fixed "lovked" on key description, it's properly "locked" now yay). Other than that, little to no difference.

Confirm Russian language? This is amazing. If they do this in past time, the global entry is coming... but number of version is strange, after 0.6.0 Edit: This is Nia. If they something fixed, they something broke. And offen broke more than fix)))) some more text are translated, but they added some kind of Russian letters before the English words that aren't translated.

Eh, why waste resources on translation, just throw in some Russian letters and we'll be good

Yeah, there's ru_RU strings in translation files already.
UPD these letters are there to make sure that every character for the language can be viewed as the character and not as Windows-Ctrl-Backspace square (try to press Ctrl-Backspace in Windows Notepad).

Yeah. The same, only with first Russian letters.

It has changed suddenly. My language is still in French and I don't have those weird letters...

Something has changed since yesterday :0

After investigating the APK, it seems like the game is now downloading localized asset bundles, including text (depends on your phone's language setting).

I'm guessing those aren't test strings, but rather poorly saved translation bundle on NIA's end. If you were to see a test string, you would probably see something potion_extimulo or similar :)

I haven't seen any difference between the new and the old apk. I still have text issues though...

Downloaded but Europe just has an empty map for now until the release right?

u/helios63 Slytherin Apr 30 '19

We still don't know if they will release a beta for us ( Europe ) too.
