Pokemon GO Plus got even better - now you can choose your notifications

| Pokemon GO

On the subject of Pokemon, Pokemon GO's latest update is all about the Plus accessory.


The Pokemon GO Plus accessory is a useful extra which allows you to use the App without having your phone out constantly. From a series of coloured LEDs and vibrations you can catch Pokemon, visit PokeStops, and more by poking a button.

As opposed to having a continuous array of notifications, you can now select one of multiple modes, though scanning for Pokemon and PokeStops will remain the default setting if it isn't changed. You can also enable or disable these notifications as you please.   Hey, don't hesitate to join our Pokemon GO friend hub, where you can leave your code and find new friends!

Additionally if you're out walking with your Buddy Pokemon you can choose not to receive notifications at all and instead just take note of the distance you've walked. The final item on the list is that the Plus will now remain paired to the App when interacting with Pokemon or at a Gym.
