There are no OS level notifications for anything ever or progress tracked unless the app is open. Even with the screen on and the app suspended nothing gets pushed, let alone when the phone is locked. Battery Saver lets you have the screen off by turning the phone upside down but still get the alerts for pokemon and count your steps.

Mens bathroom at work seems to be a Pidgey breeding ground.....

Seeing everything seemingly working again for several minutes, only for it to suddenly burst into flames as if it was just waiting for you to start moving toward a Pokestop before dying is getting really old, really fast.

Since it seems like all 150/151 gen 1 Pokémon are available, that doesn't seem too bad. Your list seems like an urban Pokémon list. I wonder if trainer level has any bearing on it. Because a lot of what I see,and your list, are similar to be Pokémon found in the early parts of the games.

That's pretty sweet, but time will tell if it has staying power or become Miitomo 2.
I was thinking about it before but now it's a day 1 buy. It's classy looking enough I don't think it'll be too obtuse to carry around.
Wait, you got to choose? I didn't
When you first start the game you're supposed to tap on which starter you want to fight with. You can find the others during normal gameplay though, so I don't think you're missing out on much.
I'd have to figure that some features haven't been activated yet. I don't think most people would have tried to get the modules yet.

Do you have to resign into Google every time you reopen the app or is this just a symptom of the issues they're having?
Edit: And I'm back to server issues now so whatever...

i think at a 95% pidgey ratio right now, i guess it makes it easier to evolve?

Its the latter. Earlier I was able to close and open the app without having to sign in again.
I'm considering turning off 2-factor until they get the servers fixed......
I was always tempted but if I can use it with the app actually off (or running in a mode where the screen is off at least) then it's an instabuy.

I think it's server issues. When I can get into the game, I don't have to login.
Yes, its been out since yesterday. You don't need to uninstall the apk version as when you go to the store it will say you already have the app installed.
You will but the screen will stay on (eating your battery) and then your phone will seemingly lock after some period if you don't interact with it for long enough.
edit: Not yet sure how your system level screen timeout plays with Battery Saver mode

Blue is a good bet, but it could change over to Red in a few months if we're not careful.

Leader OBAMA wants to fight.
Last night someone posted on /vp/ that Cinderella's Castle at Disney World was a gym as well, with a Raticate named Mickey at it lmao

Keep getting booted from the game due to server load lol. Guess everyone at lunch is looking for Pokémon.
Hopefully a future update will let you just save check-ins at a Pokestop to upload and reap the rewards later on.
Would also just be a good feature in the event you're in an area with no internet.
Have you used your incense?

Bad advice right now!!! Servers are so fucked it's much more likely that than a need for incense.
Is there a grey pokeball in the the top-left corner of your screen? If so, then the game might not be connecting to the servers, which means you can't find any pokemon or interact with any pokestops. You can still manage your pokemon and view stuff, but you can't interact with the map.
^I wouldn't use incense right now. Wait until things are a bit more stable.
In beteween server shivers a 142CP Raticate just attacked me at my desk and now he's mine. I thank you noble rat for sparing me the need to waste any time evolving your purple predecessor.

Gotta deport all those Hawluchas and Lombres. Get back to the original 151, like the founders intended.
(The joke doesn't work because we only have the original 151 right now but whatever)

If we had Gen VI, Tyrantrum and his tiny hands would be perfect.

So any benefits when logging in through Google vs Trainer Club?

Guys if we all log in one at a time we'll be able to play. I'll go first.
+1 would like to know that as well. After all I have my play!pokemon ID (for VGC and TCG leagues/tournaments) associated with my trainers account. But I think google side got a better server? Hmm...

Google right now has a better server. I don't think there's any benefit other than that.
