Pokemon GO Plus Watch

I've bought a Go Plus before (and lost it, SHAME!) but I wanted to buy another because: It really helps with the grind of catching basic pokemon to evolve and therefore level-up with a lucky egg. With the Go Plus, you only ever spend one pokeball on any wild encounter. You have to keep your eyes peeled for an indication of a pokemon you haven't encountered before (and if you've been playing since launch and up until 2nd Gen is released, that's highly unlikely) but it really means that you won't waste balls on basic pokemon. Playing without the Plus, there's always the temptation to throw a few extra balls at what are really very common pokemon like pidgeys and rattatas. You might even throw a couple of great balls at a meowth that you don't really need. But the Go Plus makes catching pokemon more efficient. One ball, one chance. And who's to say whatever pokemon you encountered might not have fled after your first ball anyway? At first it was thought the catch-rate with the Plus was 50:50 but I don't think that's the case. But either way, once you get to a certain stage in the game, perhaps looking to progress from level 20 to 30 in order to see pokemon at their peak level in the wild, then it's a big help. The biggest issue is potentially missing pokemon you really want. But whilst there were tracking apps/maps available it wasn't difficult to set your destination where you knew a pokemon you wanted had spawned, catch every basic pokemon in between, get out the game at the destination and spend real effort catching the pokemon more important to you. It's a bit different now with a lot of trackers and maps no longer available but the Plus is also still useful if you cycle or run as a hobby and want to catch pokemon or spin stops without fuss. In fact, sitting in a restaurant or near a stop is now more sociable again as there's no need to keep your phone primed, you can just tap the button in your pocket or on your wrist. It also saves some battery because you're effectively playing the game without your phone screen on. I can't wholly recommend the Plus because you might miss rare pokemon. But it has a few benefits and if you're trying to level up quickly, it's a great tool.

Excellent accessory for all Pokémon Go Fanatics. It's incredibly handy to clock up those kilometres for your eggs and candies while having your phone screen off / phone put away. It's also very convenient to access pokemon stops and catch pokemon using this accessory too - sure, for full accuracy and the full experience you will want to use your phone, but this lets you keep up with the grind without having to give the game your full attention. Easy to use, highly recommended.

I recently bought myself a Go plus. I had been waiting for it to drop a little in price and then grabbed one. I am a heavy player of the game so thought it was about time. If you are putting in the kms each day hatching eggs and getting just about every Pokemon, this little dream unit is a must buy. It has option to use only for poke stops if you prefer to not have it vibrate green with every Pokemon or vice verse you can have it only for Pokemon. I do like that the vibrations are different depending on it being the blue poke stop, green Pokemon or yellow new not found before Pokemon. Ideal for dog walking and more descreite playing. I feel it increases the range of your finds slightly too, as some will vibrate and catch and not even be on screen. I had thought it may act like a pedometer and rack up steps even when not in play mode with the phone, like a Fitbit, but alas this is not the case. I am however very very please I took the plunge and got one. For any serious trainer and player of this game get this wee awesome device. You won't be disappointed. I'm racking up about 50 km a week now and feeling great + catching some great finds. Well worth the bucks.

Ok, so I paid way over the odds for this but I WANTED it! So now that's been said I should say that this thing is really good if you're not too bothered about which Pokémon get away. I had a couple of decent ones get away but they were ones I already had so no biggie...for me, you may feel differently. I'd say the catch rate is about 50% but you're only losing one ball for all the Pokémon that get away so it's not all bad. I went for a walk around London and it was great to not be looking down the entire time and still be able to collect items from Pokéstops, catch some, but not all, Pokémon and best of all, track my distance all while the phone was in my pocket!! When I visited a nest and wanted to actually have a higher chance of catching the Pokémon, I then took my phone out and I was very happy to see how the battery had fared, another huge bonus. The Plus connects very quickly and seems to disconnect after maybe 30 minutes of inactivity. It flashes blue for Pokéstops and green for Pokémon with different vibrating patterns for each. It doesn't take long before you know what's happening without looking at the Plus. It also vibrates for each item you get from Pokéstops so you know how many items you've collected without looking too. All in all I'd recommend the Plus but I'd suggest only buying at retail price unless you're too impatient like me.

Great product for the go - Can be used while the phone is off in your pocket to help walk eggs and catch Pokémon - Can set it to only catch new Pokémon or all Pokémon and spin poke stops as well

Best thing for any Pokemon Go lover. Wear it while driving and never need to buy balls again! You can set it to hit poke stops, catch pokemon, or both with just the touch of the button while it buzzes. Battery lasted around 4 months on my partners before it needed replacing, which was easy to do.

Doesn't work with a Motorola Force X. I tried several suggestions from forums and it connected once (briefly). I emailed support, this was their reply: "A support agent has suggested a solution for your Pokémon support ticket. Hello, Thank you for contacting Pokémon Support.

I do really like the Pokemon Go watch, though there’s a small problem... too often Poke Stops and Pokemon are already out of range by the time the watch flashes and notifies me. I’m led to believe the company are working on fixing this and it only is affected by the latest Apple iOS release, but for the moment I can’t give it five stars. Having said that, when it does work properly, the watch is brilliant. I’ve caught many more Pokemon and picked up at Poke Stops than I normally would have done. Once the update is released, this would be five stars.

I love the Pokémon Go Plus. I clip mine to the underside of my watch. Getting the hang of the different colour lights flashing meaning did not take long at all. While riding public transit, my catch rate has increased significantly though many (about 50%) are not caught: “The Pokémon fled!”. It’s great for gathering items from PokéStops and stardust by catching Pokémons. Just press the button with the app running in the background: No need to try to aim for a tiny moving, possibly jumping creature with a small ball in a moving bus on a bumpy road. As already confirmed by many sources, the Pokémon Go Plus, with the app running in the background, tracks your steps for hatching eggs and kms walked with your Pokémon buddy to find candy. This works very well. The battery drain rate has gone down substantially since I’m able to ride and walk with the phone locked and the screen off. Of course, the bluetooth connection requires power though it’s a very good trade-off. If a Pokémon you have not caught yet appears, it seems you will be warned with a yellow light to give you a chance to open the app and play on the phone with razz berries and great or ultra balls though that has yet to happen for me. When I’ve gathered enough balls and other items, I’ll either go to a gym or to a park to find the more elusive Pokémons with a full bag.

My son was home from college last summer and started playing on Day One. He's such a die-hard, he attended the CHICAGO FEST. I first got my first Android on October 23, 2016 and downloaded this app. I was on a special diet and trying to increase my weight loss by walking, but even using my fitbit didn't prompt me to get outside. Walking is so boring! Playing Pokemon Go with the truly fabulous Plus helped me lose 85 lbs and reach Level 38 in just 9 months. I'm very competitive but also very social and I've made a lot of friends on my jaunts all around Milwaukee. The beauty of the Plus bracelet is that it will spin the Pokestops and throw a ball at every Pokemon while you are walking a Lucky Egg and evolving Pidgeys and hatching eggs. You can use the Plus while you walk briskly and you don't even have to look at your phone. I pull the bracelet tight and wrap it around my fingers so it fits in my palm. Every time it buzzes/vibrates, I just squeeze my fingers to press the button. For Pokemon, it flashes green and gives 2 staggered buzzes; for Pokestops, it flashes blue and gives a long/short buzz so you can feel which it is without even looking at the Plus. But since it only throws 1 Pokeball with no berries, if I really want that Eevee or Magicarp, I just throw an Ultra ball and Pinap Berry myself. You know how you want to play while someone is driving? (NEVER play with your phone while YOU are driving.) Even with lots of stoplights, you catch or spin maybe 20% successfully? Well, with the Plus, the rate increases to maybe 50% and it's safe to do because you're just pressing a button on your wrist without taking your eyes off the road. Yes, sometimes when I press the little icon on the screen, it won't sync with my phone immediately. If it keeps acting up, I close out the app, turn it on and try it again. If it still won't work, after about 4 tries, Niantic puts up a message asking if I want to go to its Troubleshooting screen. Now I've learned just to go into Settings, click on the Plus icon and press the button on the Plus. I've only experienced continued problems with syncing maybe a half dozen times. And it usually shuts off by itself every 45 minutes or so. But compare that with how many times the game itself crashes, reloads, freezes, or displays "no internet connectivity" or "network error." Now THAT'S annoying, it's so common. The Plus enhances your play so much. I visited my sister but forgot it so I purchased 3 more and had them sent to her house so she and her husband and I could all have one. Now I'm purchasing one for my son. How did I level up so quickly? I walk an average of 5 miles a day--I know most people don't have as much time--but I also max out on the special events like Water, Solstice, Fire & Ice, pink (Valentine's Day), Christmas--anything with double XP. I cruised through Level 37 in less than a week by taking advantage of the Anniversary/Fest specials with double XP, catching everything that spawned (obviously the Plus comes in handy here), incubating eggs (3x faster!) and churning evolving on Lucky Eggs. I've gotten to the point that I can time it to hatch as many as a dozen eggs for double XP. Yes, it's annoying to have to buy incubators but I didn't buy anything in the Shop till I needed more space in my Items and Pokemon storage bags. There's a park near me that has 8 pokestops and a gym which takes only about 5 minutes to walk around. I had to rev up to 1500 Items because I kept hitting the max...in the past few months, I had to delete hundreds of Pokeballs, Potions and, yes, even Revives! I introduce myself as a friendly Mystic and have made a lot of friends and learned a lot of tips from other players. There is no gym that I can't take down on my own and out of 9 Legendary Raids, I caught a Lugia and 3 Articunos! And a Shiny Magicarp!!

Es perfecto para atrapar o girar pokeparadas cuando estás ocupado o sólo no quieres estar frente al teléfono. Se desconecta después de un rato pero ppor mientras te consigue varias cosas así que no hay quejas. También dicen que el catch rate es algo bajo, y es obvio porque sólo usa pokebolas rojas, pero en mi opinión sigue valiendo la pena.

Ich habe es verschenkt und es ist auf volle Begeisterung gestoßen! Macht Spaß und ist total leicht zu handhaben! Easy
