Pokemon Go Plus is a companion accessory for the hit mobile game Pokemon Go. Included in the box is a half-dollar sized Pokeball shaped bluetooth device with a plastic clip for a back, and a wrist band you can attach the device to if you'd prefer to wear it like a watch. I don't. Included inside the device is a fully charged watch battery, but a tiny screwdriver to remove the back and spare batteries are sold separately. When functioning correctly, the PoGo+ will alert you by vibrating and lighting up when there are nearby Pokemon or Pokestops in PoGo, and let you attempt to throw *ONE* Pokeball at new encounters. One. And ONLY Pokeballs, so don't discard them thinking the device will attempt to use Great or Ultra balls, because it won't. The device prefers Pokemon to Pokestops, in other words, if both are in range, it will go through ALL the pokemon in range before it will attempt to spin the Pokestop. If you're attempting to fully clear a densely populated area downtown, you'll likely still need to have your phone out to hit Pokestops while the device attempts to catch Pokemon for you. The device requires resyncing to your phone or tablet every hour. I don't know why. None of my other bluetooth accessories do this, it must be a function of the device or the PoGo itself. That all being said, it's better than no help at all, especially in densely populated areas or when out for a jog. However, if you're not concerned with using OEM Nintendo parts, there is a better option. Search for an item called Pokemon Go-tcha. It's off brand, but it's much more stylish, feels sturdier and higher quality, *charges via USB*, **COSTS LESS**, and ***AUTOMATICALLY CATCHES POKEMON AND SPINS POKESTOPS*** I'm not getting paid to say this, but I recognize a superior product when I see one. The game and the technology have been out for long enough that now you can do better than the Pokemon Go Plus.Read full review

Pros 1. Significantly increases battery life as you can lock the phone and put it in your pocket 2. Even if you don't lock the phone, if you have the screen brightness set to auto, it will dim in your pocket and brighten when you take it out also increasing battery time 3. Because you just have to have the Plus in your hand, you can be looking around rather than down which defintely helps your neck. Cons 1. If you have multiple accounts on your phone you want to swap accounts and then log out of Pokemon Go and then back in before trying to sync. For some reason if you don't the sync feature seems to not find the Plus.

I got this device for myself & my son. My husband hates when we play pokemon Go & this device is perfect! It's better than I anticipated! I can secretly catch pokemon or pokestops without having to pull out my phone. It also keeps up with your movement for hatching eggs. I would highly recommend for any Pokémon Go fan!

I found out for one it is now hard to get an actual Nintendo pokemon go plus. I called around first to find out that most now are an unbranded one. So super excited to find an original Found out it does track steps, but also it is really good at catching pokemon so good that I ran out of balls twice. My main reason was for when I am driving and passing by a poke stop that I can actually get the spin because unless your actually stopped or going 10mph you wont get that sound in. And it works great as long as your cell service is good.

I was hesitant on this purchase for a while. However, this device is amazing. The colors and vibration patterns allow you to easily recognize if you're near a Pokémon or a Poke stop. And if you collect a stop or catch/fail the Pokémon. And you can all do this while the app is minimized, so it saves a lot of battery. The app uses default Pokeball but will run through your next in line should you run out. The PoGO+ also continued to count my steps towards eggs and my buddy Pokémon while the app was minimized. So that is a nice feature. From what I can tell you only have one shot at catching the Pokémon and if you don't catch it, it flees. If you have the app open while using the PoGO+ you can navigate menus while still using the + to catch Pokémon. Not particularly amazing but pretty neat. The accessory comes with a wrist strap or it can be clipped to a shirt, lanyard, belt loop, etc. I couldn't feel the vibration at all while clipped on to my belt but I felt it when worn on my sweater that was over an undershirt more often than not. Overall I felt that wearing on the wrist with the strap was the best way to go. I am definitely happy with this purchase and highly recommend it to anyone who plays the game consistently.Read full review

First, let me say, double retail price was worth it to me. I didn't want to wait for stores to restock and this was the best price there is right now. As for the product itself, I'm very pleased with it. I like to ride my bike while playing the game. This makes it very easy to catch pokemon/get items without having to stop.

Although the device works, the battery that it came with was not able to sufficiently power the device so it would stay connected to my phone. I needed to purchase a replacement CR2032 battery (not a cheap one but a brand name Energizer) making the cost of the item another $4 more expensive. If these are new but old stock, be prepared to purchase a replacement battery immediately.

It's good. The shipping was not too long. But for a reason I dont understand, the device always disconnect when I'm walking. It keeps disconnecting every seconds and doesn't stay connected even with new batteries. The only time it stays connected is when I'm in a car rolling but that's useless since the game doesn't have the time to detect pokemons and also stay connected when I'm inside at work or home. So I can't even use it outside whe. I'm walking.
