Where does it say it's available for Android? Or are you being facetious?

Welp. I misread it as using Google's ARKit, not Apple's ARKit. I was wrong. I should have know, since Android never gets the cool stuff first. :(

If you play on an Apple device, I hope it's one that can upgrade to iOS 11, because otherwise, you won't be able to play after 2/28/18.

Here's the list of devices that are affected:
iPhone 5c (Model numbers A1456, A1507, A1516, A1529, A1532)
iPhone 5 (Model numbers A1428, A1429, A1442)
iPad 4th Gen (Model numbers A1458, A1459, A1460)
iPad 3rd Gen (Model numbers A1416, A1430, A1403)
iPad Mini 1st Gen (Model numbers A1432, A1454, A1455)
iPad 2 (Model numbers A1395, A1396, A1397)

What a really weird non-way of warning people.
Is the app going to run or not?
And is the app going to run on newer devices that haven't updated to iOS 11?


I guess that implies it will still run on IOS 9+, iff your device is 5S/Air1 or newer???

The Help Article that page links to says:

What do I need to do?

If your device is listed as an affected device:

Trainers using affected devices will need to switch to a device that meets our supported device requirements to continue to access Pokémon GO. Trainers who attempt to access Pokémon GO using any of the devices listed above will no longer be able to sign in and will see a message stating that they need to switch to a supported device.

How? I swear to god, every time I walk into a Walmart, I lose my cell signal, no matter what provider I have.

Have you tried switching over to WiFi?

Kheldarn
Feb 17, 2011



They should do one of these events every time they add new Pokémon to the game. Just a week or so where there's nothing but spawns from that Gen, with higher rates for the new stuff.


DizzyBum posted:

I didn't think Walmart had any sort of in-store wifi access for customers. Either way, I go to Walmart so rarely it's pretty much a non-issue.

Every one I've been in for the past 3 or 4 years has had free WiFi, but then, maybe it's something they're testing, and I just happen to be in the right area. Who knows?

So, um... is there a Lure event going on? Because I put one down tonight, and it lasted for at least an hour and a half. We left after that much time had passed, because we were hungry.

I love that this bug manifests so differently. I had a half formed pokeball, no monster and some weird poo poo on the side? idk



It's a pretty regular bug on quests that result in a sighting. You can just hit back once then activate reward again and it's usually fine

The "weird poo poo on the side" is actually tied to the GPS. It's letting you know what way the Pokémon is. IIRC, it's only supposed to come up when AR mode is on, so if you (almost) never use AR mode, that's probably why you don't recognize it.

Ah, Rare Candy is tied to Raids. No wonder I don't know anything about it. My old phone could barely handle the game, so raids were a no go.

The PoGO crew hates fun. The only way they'll give you silly stuff on Pokémon is to shove it on Pikachu. Despite the fact that a lot of people asked for an option to enable the 8-Bit Sprites from April Fools after the "event" ended, it was denied.

So we'll never get Sunglasses Squirtle.

OK, so I have to finish Mew 3. Thanks for that. I totally missed that part.

It's probably going to be awhile before I can finish that, because apparently, raids at the gym near my house happen at times when I'm asleep or at work, and the gym near work is too far away to reach from work (and also has weird raid times). Oh well.
