Same. Got it just in time for them to shut down Pokevision, the whole reason I *** bought it.

So like, since the update my character will regularly just stop walking along with my movement, like every 5-10 seconds and every time I interact with something (pokestop, gym, pokemon) to the point it is pretty unplayable.
Anyone else having similar issues? I have always had problems before but it has never been this bad. Ever since the update, I have noticed I've been getting the message saying it can't find GPS signal a LOT more, though it typically only lasts for a second or two.

So, yup, it's a war!
(Sometimes I wonder if I am a masochist... seeing how Square Enix and Niantic have in common of "punishing" player base and still wanting to play their games, I can't get myself away from FFXI or from Pokémon GO!). So far, the only stable app I found is Pokemesh. Works like Pokevision; countdown timer, map, etc... but just an app, not via web.
Will test more on this app.
First thoughts: Not sure if its due to the .api junk, but scans seem really slow or not much on them. searched up and down a few local streets, about 8-10 different scans over 5 suburban streets. although the circle is supposed to be the scan radius, I had to scan multiple times to get all the pokemon to appear.
Edit: Turns out my issues were because they were working on things during the time I was testing. Pokemesh update posted around 430am EST. Worth mentioning, notes mentions an "Overlay mode".

Yes, I am aware that alternatives exist, personally I just set up the Map Github project on my Raspberry Pi but it would always be better to be running in a cloud environment like I was before they freakin' shut down AWS/DO/others.

~.~ Yeah that sucks, but if you have the habit to move a lot, you won't be too hurt.
I used to bring a second smartphone just to use Pokévision on it. Pockets got lighter.

So just following up about curveballs (which are apparently my obsession lately), but I'm getting the 10xp curveball bonus every time now. :D The only exception is when I accidentally throw a nice/great/excellent, at which point of course I get nothing.
Also lol at that 'hacker' group that promised to take down the servers for 20 hours today. GG y'all!

So I finally decided to act on all the Pidgeys and Rattata I have caught, I popped a lucky egg and evolved the crap out of them, level 18-20 in a 30 minute session.

just 24->25 alone sucks. I mean, Its only 150k, but just collecting the weedles/pidgeys (especially now without tracking) took days x.x
I'm kind of worried of how the next few levels are going to be :(

Na, using Pokemesh currently, but just haven't been using it. I suppose it's my fault. It just doesnt have the same feel of pokevision :(
Edit: New update now shows pokestops/gyms (and who controls them!) really cool.

Unrelated: My sister and I went and walked around down town last night and she decided to take over a Mystic gym. As soon as it fell, a kid ran up and shouted "Oh my god, dude, we have a problem, get over here!" "Is it Instinct?!"
My sister enjoys pissing kids off apparently. And no, we aren't both Instinct, I'm Valor.

#TeamMystic We actually tag-teamed the gym, my phone locked up so I had to restart the app and she took over.

I haven't used tracking at all.

I like the look and feel of the app. Actually, this one and PokePro are my favorite (PokeMesh is kind of sloppy IMO). It seems every day a new pokemon tracker rises and falls. I have installed and deleted over 5 within the time frame of websites going down.

Niantic has responded to the recent events via their pokemon GO Facebook page
https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=940141879465704&id=834391626707397
So they just announced this:

I realize the game itself won't look anything like this until maybe a decade or two of updates, if ever. Even so, I am happy to be alive in this day and age.
For perspective, it is very reminscent but NOT TO BE CONFUSED with Google's April Fool's joke:
