You can now give items directly to a Pokémon.
The new update brings another option to the game. This makes things a bit easier for trainers and is more of a convenience improvement. You can now go directly to a selected Pokémon with items instead of having to wade through multiple menus. The video shows you how it works.
Improved gym control: Trainers can now go directly to the corresponding gym with the gym medal overview. This makes it much easier to find or feed your defenders. How this works is shown by Reddit user Fabian-Anghel in a video.
Error codes are displayed more accurately. According to initial reports, error codes now give you more information about what went wrong. Instead of just displaying an error number, a message explains, for example, “The item could not be used now.”
