    Honestly very fun to use and I've been getting a lot of enjoyment out of it, it is able to detect pokemon and pokestops quickly. It is also really fun hearing pikachu sing you a lullaby when using it for pokemon sleep.

    You people kill me. The Pokémon Sleep app is not released yet on Google or iOS and yet there’s already raving reviews how well this works. 1) You can’t currently do squat with this. I can’t connect it to an iPhone 14 Pro Max or a Galaxy Flip 3 as there’s no app out yet. 2) This comes with zero info on the instructions booklet. Most know you need Pokémon Sleep but some will not. 3) This may be 5 stars and it may be 0 stars. I can’t give you a review because it’s absolutely useless right now. I mainly did this review to point out the current 3 reviews are fraudulent unless they are beta testers or being paid.

    It should stand to reason that it is difficult to review this without looking at the apps that require its basic function; Pokemon Go and Pokemon Sleep. Pokemon Go's functionality with the device is insanely poor, but this is not reflected with this review. On the plus side, it solves the Bluetooth pairing issue the original Go had, is rechargeable, has a battery indicator on the device, has an adorable Pikachu within it (that is far more lifelike than Pokemon Go ever will be) and has the ability to automatically reconnect with Go or Sleep. I also have it set on an Android device with Go and an iPhone with Sleep and works well with both. As for the downsides. Just about everything stems from the fact it essentially only has a single input button. This means to change settings you have to go into the respective app and change them. Had Pokemon Go been more feature rich the Go Plus+ could easily do a whole lot more; as it stands two more buttons should have been added to the top (side) of the device. One button to switch between the different Pokeballs and another button to switch between automatic catching and manual catching. Likewise the single button is also a major problem with Pokemon Sleep (and/or the designers never used a portable CD Player). Three times so far I've been able to turn off the device and then restart it over the course of a single night. While there are solutions to this problem it really should be something included with the device; say using the additional buttons to "lock" the device to prevent entering or exiting sleep sessions. While I'll probably use it every day; I do feel unless the Sleep app will be used that the additional features don't benefit that much in Pokemon Go. As I cannot unpair this device without forcing a factory reset, my original Go+ is attached to an iPhone.

    Overall, this item is very good. My only complaint is my Pikachu voice sounds kind of funny which is probably just a defect but I accidentally missed my return. So therefore I’m stuck with it.

    If you play pokemon sleep and you're worried about your phone losing battery overnight, or you use your phone as an alarm, you need this.

    This has propelled my experience with Pokemon go and skyrocketed my progress with auto catching and auto spinning pokestops. I've caught so many shiny's and three star pokemon because of it.

    Love it. Very convenient for me since I don’t have much time to actually walk around. Also, received my snorlax with the sleeping cap in my GO account after tracking my sleep for 7 days.

    Definitely helpful spinning pokestops, just has bug issues catching with anything other than a regular pokeball in game, also it let a few shinys run away instead of catching them

    At first I was a little worried why it wouldn't connect immediately. Turns out you have to reset the item and confirm the resetting of sleep data from the previous owner.

    Best Pokémon accessories. Helps with grinding shinys hunts if you like to shiny hunt. This also helps you go out more and explore places you’ve never been before

    Purchased a few auto catchers and this one was the best so far. You’re able to be a fair distance away from the device and so long as it is paired it’ll operate.

    Great product but sleep tracking is a little off. If it is even one degree off, it will treat the most of the session time as untracked

    Bought this yesterday and used it all day. Pros: nonstopped spinning pokestops Nonstop catching (only red balls) Tracked my sleeping well enough. Jist tells you how long you slept. And i did get for 5 hours some stardust, 2 hearts for my buddy. And i like the auto connect. Just tap on the screen the ball and it connects right away. Cons: Everything else! The loud vibrating you cannot shut off. The bright lights you cannot shut off. They call what they have a "silent mode," but that only shuts off the pikachu voice. You have to press the button to use any other balls. It was a bit misleading when they advertised it being able to use great and ultra. They didnt say we couldnt set it to that and we had to constantly press the button to use those balls. All and all its fine. There are better auto catchers out there. For 60 bucks if they can get rid of the lights and vibrating i would keep using it. For now im not going to return it.
