I find recent 10.3 update is casing the game to crash more.

I notice more lag in the game ===>>> more game crash.

Freezes up than closes.

Neither PG update or IOS update is reducing the game crashes/force close.

I'm beginning to think it's my phone.
iPhone 6 Plus

I have an iPhone 6, not the plus, not the SE the in between one.

also all the mons in "near-by" will pop off then return after 30 seconds or so.

Good thing I didn't update. I'm still running 10.2. I usually don't update iOS right away because of so much bugs in the beginning.

Maybe it's not my phone since both Android and iPhones are having the same problems.

Only conclusion I can think of then is that Niantic are greedy and not spending some of that money they make to hire a better programmmers.

File system was changed in the recent update.

Anyone know if this game needs an update to work with the new file system?

no need, is PG's case most of the problem with crashing is memory exceed, completely game developer's fault. The reason you feel it crashes "more" is that AFS change the way system calculate left space. when traveling through busy area you may have less than 110M free memory(iOS starts killing app when available memory drops below 100M), PG doesn't have much space to work with even with memory collection, so even 5M memory can make a big difference.

if nanatic optimize the app well enough(IMO they still cache way too much, i can see the memory usage increase when playing, it doesn't destroy cache often), or u can just upgrade to iPhone 7 it will solve the problem one thing for all :)

Yes, please. Even if I had the newest phone possible, this game does not need as high quality models as it is using.

Not your phone. I started having these issues after the recent update of GO, but every so often I get lag and game crashes too.
