In Pokémon GO there is now much to rejoice about. Two major bugs have been fixed and many trainers can finally play normally again.
These are the bugs: For weeks, all trainers playing on the Samsung Galaxy S20 have been excluded from Pokémon GO. Due to a glitch, the app crashes right after starting. This bug has now been fixed.
Additionally, helpers like the GO Plus or the Pokéball Plus are working again. Since the last update, there were issues, and the devices could not be connected.
After weeks, there is a bug fix
This is what was said about the S20 bug: For now several weeks, players have been affected by the bug on the S20. Niantic had already stated that they were aware of the bug, but had not yet found a solution. That has now changed.
They wrote on Twitter: “Trainers, we are happy to share that our latest update includes fixes for the app freezing on the Galaxy S20.”
Fans are particularly glad about this, as due to this bug, one could not play at all on the S20. The only solution was switching phones or taking a forced break. Now, finally, normal gaming can continue.
Here’s how it looks with the GO Plus: With the last update, gadgets like the GO Plus or the Pokéball Plus became useless. They could no longer connect to the phone.
Now there is a quick bug fix available. This resolves the issues around the small helpers and makes them ready for use again.
When will the update be released? The rollout is currently underway. It is not yet available on all devices, but is gradually appearing in app stores.
You can already download it via the APK version. However, keep in mind that this is not officially from Niantic and not available in the app store. You must download it from an external site.
Alternatively, you will still have to wait a few days. By the weekend, the update should be available on every smartphone. There, you can then still take advantage of the buddy event of Pokémon GO.
