I'm going to send you all gifts the next few days instead of me opening yours so you can time your lucky eggs for when you want. Can you send NekoSukimin a gift? I'm one off of great friends with you and could time it with a few other people. I opened my research breakthrough at 1:10 and it was fixed by then. In exchange, I clicked on a random Eevee and got a shiny one.

Found a third party app to sync my Fitbit data (including old stuff) into Google Fit in preparation for Adventure Sync. Let's do this.

Open your menu via clicking your avatar and you’ll see a whole new section with egg and step stats. Click one of the random icons on it and it’ll ask if you want to enable the background tracking. Surpisingly easy. So now I don’t need to keep the game open for it to track kms? Louisgod fucked around with this message at 22:44 on Nov 1, 2018 |

Louisgod posted:So now I don’t need to keep the game open for it to track kms? That's the idea I believe. From what I understood, it would check Apple Health for your steps/distance it passively collects and apply it to egg/buddy distances. Hoping it'll also track steps reported by the Apple Watch as well, in case my phone isn't on me for whatever reason. That's going to get me some baller distance for my runs, which I do sans-phone. I don't see why it wouldn't, since the watch just dumps steps into Apple Health, just like the phone does.

So for Androids is the only way to track it via Google Fit? I only use a Fitbit for step tracking and heard that that's not supported.

I mostly installed it for future use but decided to be thorough just in case. Someone mentioned getting 78km at once from Adventure Sync and that seemed like it had to be a backlog thing.

PoGo asked for "Always" location permission after I enabled Adventure Sync. Not sure whether it's strictly required if it's using the Health data it already has access to.

I’m level 36 and was able to enable it. This is great, I’m a butcher and a bartender so both of my jobs involve me running back and forth all day behind counters. I know for a fact that the iOS app tracks those steps... I’m about to hatch hella eggs!!!!!

Does it just track steps while your phone is on you or do you need a fitbit or some sort of device like that?

I gave it access to my iOS health app but that app isn't recording anything. No idea how to get it to track steps. My Fitbit does fine on my wrist but maybe my iPhone X doesn't have a pedometer?

My Fitbit does fine on my wrist but maybe my iPhone X doesn't have a pedometer? How long have you waited so far? I enabled it mid afternoon today, then forgot all about it (while just walking around in my apt) til dinnertime, and it was enough to get 0.3k / 600-something steps, and hatch an egg I was nearly done with. You can check what it's logged by tapping your avatar and scrolling down a bit - should show current egg status, a link to the eggs page, km walked, steps taken, etc. In my limited experience, stuff that interfaces with HealthKit – like the built in Health app – can lag behind for a bit, especially if said app was only recently relaunched. But it usually backfills the data accurately once it's ran for a few minutes. Also, how exactly did you 'grant it access'? I had to enter my settings within Pokemon GO and there was a new unchecked option for Adventure Mode or whatever it's called; tapping that prompted me with the 'grant access?' popup.

from what I understand Go will ping your Fit/Healthkit data once an hour, and of course you have to enable Adventure Sync in the game and then you have to give it permission to read your Google Fit/Apple Healthkit data at the OS level. It should prompt you for this at the same time as enabling sync.

From Discord I'm hearing reports of Moltres for the field (edit) research instead of Shedinja. So maybe don't turn in your last task unless you want a Moltres.

Just snagged a 98 IV Spiritomb, which was nice. I keep having a weird issue that I've been unable to find anything about though - whenever I catch a non wild pokemon (from a raid, or reward from research etc), the next time I catch a pokemon the 'ok' button on the screen afterwards doesn't work, I have to force close the app and reopen to get past that screen. I don't seem to lose anything but it's pretty frustrating.

You can check what it's logged by tapping your avatar and scrolling down a bit - should show current egg status, a link to the eggs page, km walked, steps taken, etc. Thank you for the reply but I found the issue. You need to enable "fitness tracking" in privacy settings at the operating system level. I had turned it off previously since I never needed it.

I have a google Pixel, is there something I need to enable on the OS for this to work? I don't normally track my steps, and I was unaware if it's doing it in the background or not.
