Most of those annoying bugs have finally been sorted but there has been a side effect to some people's accounts that isn't going down very well.
The app has been a huge success since it was released around two weeks ago and we're not surprised. Who didn't want to own their very own Pikachu when they were a kid (it's just now we're all a little older and still want to obviously).
Now you can change those clothes to match the season...but seriously who wears hats like these anymore?
Thank god! Saying that, surely this will make it harder to track them right?
However, some people have had some huge problems since updating their app...like having their ENTIRE Pokemon collection stripped away as well as being sent all the way back to level 1. Diagnosis = NOT GOOD!

Word on the street (Twitter) is that if you made your Pokemon Go account using a U.S Apple ID then it is likely you'll be in trouble after updating, so be careful before you tap on that update button!
