I go from 100% to 5% in 2-3 hours even with battery saver.

Damn, I feel for you. What phone are you using? I use an iPhone 6s+ and just have the screen on the lowest dim.

I have an android. That's the problem with playing outside tho, can't see anything with the screen on low. I need to have it at least at 50% but it's okay. 2 hours is more than enough and i already have a tan on my arms cause of being outside so much😃

A modified version of the APK infected with malware has been found. So if you've downloaded from outside an official app store, it's worth double checking your version just to be safe :smile: Although word is APKmirror is likely secure.

meh blame the people with no common sense, not the game.
You know that show called X Factor? It used to be so popular that people downloaded a single to specifically prevent the winner from topping the chart :biggrin:, now the show got boring and ratings decreased to the point that the winner from last year didn't reach top 10 with the winning song. So in a similar manner you just wait a few months and the madness will die down

Why is it no Apps come out on it? Seriously, iphones are WAY to overhyped but they are really the only ones which gets apps...

I NEED TO PLAY THIS GAME!
Friendly reminder that team yellow is for the people that walk into prison receptions and slam the soap onto the floor.

And Android has it as well, so no iPhones don't just get the 'apps'. Everyone but windows phones get the app :biggrin:.
Does anybody have their phone randomly lock when playing?

Also does anybody know how to make it so my phone doesn't automatically lock when I close the case short of turning off the security and simply unlocking it when closed? So annoying that it only tracks distance when unlocked

how do you increase the prestige points of a gym your team already owns? And if you have around a 300CP pokemon what would you say is the highest CP Pokemon you could fight at a gym, considering you get 6 pokemon to take with you into battle?

I believe you increase the prestige by training in the gym
