Christmas and New year events

The Christmas and New year events are back!

Remember to update the app to the last version.

More updates for the app coming in january! Stay tuned!
Merry christmas and a happy new year to you all!

Update 0.20.0.1 – Background notification, Oreo support

Version 0.20 was out in beta, and version 0.20.0.1 made it to production with many fixes.

Seems identical but when in background displays a notification with useful info about the current route, so you can always see what’s going on even while checking mails or facebook or whatever.

This was added mainly for android oreo support, because without this gps functions weren’t working well anymore due to new requirements. But, it turned out as something everyone would benefit from, I think it’s a great addition.

To those using oreo, notifications are handled visually differently than before, so even if this adds support for it, meaning that the game works, the notifications still look better on older android versions. I still have to try a oreo myself, so I’ll make them better at a later date.

Update 0.19 – Multiplayer Bluetooth Battles

The long-awaited multiplayer battles are available right now!

Still in testing and very subject to change, if you have troubles or suggestions let me know!

I wanted to have two exclusive connection types for trades and battles, but it’s not possible for now, so after you do the usual connection, you’ll be asked which of the two you want to do. It’ll change in a future update.
It should be compatible with older app versions, so if you connect to someone that has not this update, it’ll go straight to trade without asking.

As I said, let me know, and enjoy!

Update 0.18.3 – Hide mode for achievements

If you have tons and tons of achievements in your trainer profile screen, you can now hide whatever you don’t want to see. Scroll to the bottom of the page, tap the button to enter hide mode, tap the achievements you want to hide, tap the button again to exit hide mode.

It’s a little thing, but I have tons more in store for this august, just wait for them.

Update 0.18 – Travel Stats

Finally all the recording the game does about your daily travels get to be displayed somehow! All thanks to a chart library that made the task easier.

As written in the guide:

A detailed chart of your travel records in the last two weeks. Tap the columns, representing the days, to see a detailed breakdown of your whole day in the chart above. Tap the points in your day chart to view the precise values. Remember that you can zoom them in and out with your fingers!

And also, the dex number is now displayed in the status screen, and there are new parameters to use for pack authors, but I’ll talk about them on the pack creation discord channel.
