Have you been banned in Pokemon Go?
If you're on iPhone and thinking you're free of any Pokemon Go woes, you might have a nasty surprise.
Users on iOS 12, 11, 10 and 9 have been reporting on bans of seven days from Niantic, along with "first-strike" punishment at the account level.
Niantic's Support account tweeted:
"We're investigating reports that some players are being incorrectly flagged by our systems and receiving punishments on their accounts. We will share an update as soon as we are able."
