Niantic, the developer of the hit AR mobile game, "Pokemon Go," has reacted to fans' feedback over the removal of the Battery Saver mode for iOS version of the game.
Amid complaints that the developer goes silent for long durations and does not respond to fan posts, the company made it clear that it is reading the feedback "loud and clear" and has noted what players have said on the removal of the Battery Saver mode.
