Pokémon GO Plus + HONEST REVIEW

[@bronxbomber904]

As someone who is close to total blindness, this product is amazing! I know some people are complaining about the lights in the vibration but for someone who has no vision that is the only way we are able to participate in the game. I understand why they did not enable egg, auto thorough for gray or ultra balls but in my opinion, they should to make the game more accessible. This game really needs accessibility options such as enabling screen readers to work properly, and. allowing sound navigation apps, such as voice vista to allow blind and low vision players to locate PokéStops via audio beacon. Again, I am very grateful for this device as it allows me to engage more with the game that I love and not just look to see what I get at the end of the day.

[@flickyfkosstitcher8547]

As someone who's also visually impaired I'm reliant on the vibration cues to know what actions are being performed by my Poke Ball Plus (I use mine for stop/gym spinning); as I use as a white cane when outside, it's not always convenient to try and glance at the device for any light reactions to Poke Stop/Gym locations. I'm excited for my pre-order to arrive tomorrow (21st July release for the UK), so I just use my PB+ for accumulating steps for Let's Go or gen 8 without fear of missing a callout due to spot/gym spinning; also, I primarily bought the device for Sleep, POGO usage is a bonus.

[@Klinkertinlegs]

As someone in a wheelchair, auto catching is a must since I can’t catch and move. I agree they need far more accessibility options. The changes during Covid were nice for someone like me, but then they rolled those back

[@Wurmze]

Pokémon go doesn’t work with screen readers? Jeez that’s really bad there’s no excuse for that

[@Daddy_420p]

I’m certain they will work on fixing these however I would definitely voice concerns to Niantic that way they know what they would have to improve on 😁

[@Snoop_Dugg]

It's not a problem that it has these features, but it is a bit of a turn off to be unable to customise it.

[@IYIagiix]

What would make this REALLY nice was if you could mark what balls you wanted to use on what Pokémon. For example, red balls at 500cp, great at 1000cp, and ultra at 1500cp. Future update 👀

[@CitywideJ]

My main issue with my OG +. The constant vibbing is just annoying. Was honestly thinking modding it by unsoldering the vibration engine inside of it lol.

[@samuelthompson8080]

A future update to choose which pokemon to auto-,catch. First time using it I used lucky eggs for double xp, incense, and star piece Well in 30 mins I got about 50k of stardust, 150k of experience, and catch over 120 pokemon just driving a around this one area with a lot of pokespot close together.

[@samuelthompson8080]

I wish I could use two at one time. It glitches sometimes easy fix is to disconnect then connect. I noticed it stop spinning pokestops and I just restarted it

[@snk7282]

Had mine for 2 days now, I can confirm that this is a pretty good autocatcher

[@SlurmDude]

I think its straight up faster than my gotcha evolve. On my gotcha i would throw about 150 balls in an hour and get 60ish pokemon. In 45 minutes with this i threw 200 pokeballs, and the catch rate seems higher, but thats just pure speculation/luck. Same route, same speed (electric bike, 12/13mph) Normally at 120 balls i had to go back or my bike would die 20 minutes from home (pedal without motor is like setting 12/10 on an stationary, so a mile is brutal), but with this i actually ran out of 220 balls, didnt notice for a good ten minutes, and still had 35% on my bike battery after i got back. More speculation: on my gotcha i very rarely got full odds shinies, maybe 1 a month at 4 hours a week. With my gotcha, i got 2 just on my inaugural GOPP voyage, which was only 45 minutes at most. Pure speculation, but i think one or the other is coded with a different shiny catch rate, to discourage third party use. I certainly know if the real GOPP had a 40% higher catch rate when it did autothrow a shiny, id pay the extra 20$ to go legit

[@10kratz]

Yup vibration is strong and the lights are super bright it’s be nice if we could dim it

[@Zaneius]

A little tip for the flashing light on 10:58. You can get a sticker paper (white if you want it to look like it is now) and cut a circle to cover it. This sticker should be from someone that covers cars as they don't leave marks on the device if you would like to remove it later. Just cut a circle with some measurement and it will light up less.

[@Raezik]

I was gonna say lol. I’m a commercial electrician so changing up how something is wired is a normalcy. But then it got me thinking.. why not just use some black electrical tape to cover up 90% of it? 🤣

[@paulinexong]

@@RaezikLOL that's actually what I did. opened it up and covered the lights directly with electrical tape. There's four LED lights so I covered two with black and two with white. Also desoldered the vibration motor and speaker because I couldn't stand the idea of people noticing lol

[@MidwestJotunn]

Been using the Go Plus + since the release date. All around very much enjoy using it. Downfall for me is I tried to double dip during the spotlight hour, with the Go Plus + catching 1 pokemon while I manual caught another. The device did not like this and would stop tracking pokemon.

[@stephenfisher7868]

I’ve had this with other devices. You still can do a double dip but it’s a bit more effort. You have to click on the Pokémon at the same time as the device and complete the encounter before the device finishes its catch sequence. If you’re encounter lasts longer then the device sees you’re already in and pauses for a couple minutes.

[@Mac0531]

From a person that bought it the day it came out I was very impressed it kept up with stops and catching Pokémon it has a 50/50 catch rate for poke balls i love it for me it is a must buy

There will most likely be some third party catchers with the new stuff soon. Kinda disappointed that you can’t select which pokemon you want to use great or ultra balls on

[@Courraff]

There was a snapshot of someone getting 10'000 dust from 4 hours of sleep from the device a couple of days before it dropped, i think it builds up into better rewards the more times you do it

[@kzoferrari]

I preordered mine and the directions it came with and game settings were a bit confusing to me. I appreciated your breakdown of how to use it!

[@Sangral101]

First of all, massive respect for not recommending people to fake through the sleep processes. 👏 One of the few people out there not doing that. Great review, although I have one suggestion for improvement. You could have added the pro, or at least the thought of Pokemon Sleep into your final verdict. Cause Sleep is a pretty fun and well made game that technically works with the phone, but is way more convenient to use with this device, cause you don't have to keep your phone active and on the charger for the whole night. Also the Go rewards over a longer timeframe do add up and are pretty fun too so if people have fun with Sleep and like the Go connectivity to Sleep too, it's a major plus point for purchasing it already. I'm invested into Sleep currently, "catching" new Pokemon, finding Shinies there, leveling stuff up, so for my purchase decision this takes a big part of it.

[@Ern920]

The plus+ has some issues but if you reset using the small button located on the backside it clears up the issues. Overall I'm happy with the results and think its capabilities are worth spending $$$$.

[@SlurmDude]

Thats an interesting note, because that would suggest a boot software install problem on the factory end. Theres probably an 0 that should be an O somewhere it the first boot program thats causing the issues.

[@frankgarcia9045]

[@karlbyrne589]

How do you feel about it now?

[@Challenged_pogo]

Yea same question

[@PChampoo]

Pokeball plus did have silent mode , but it was only for when you had a pokemon inside the ball. I believe you have to hold the top and middle button for 5 seconds and it silences the pokemon in the ball, but the pokemon go + + and pokeball plus are virtually the same in function in terms of lights and vibration. This has a 500mah battery , pokeball plus had a 220mah battery. But they both last pretty long.

[@flickyfkosstitcher8547]

Poke Ball Plus: Hold the top button, and move the control stick to the down position for a few seconds to enter silent mode; then, to re-enable sound, hold the top button, and move the control stick to the up position for a few seconds. I like to think of it as a volume slider.

[@machi992]

Was it worth the upgrade from pokeball plus to plus +?

[@PChampoo]

@machi992 actually yes , bigger battery life and autocatch makes a different , but I could go either way

[@machi992]

@@PChampoo is it only because of the auto catch? The pokeball plus with the button pressed trick also does it, or is there something else game changer for you?

Please make an updated video about the plus +

[@alinktothefuture193]

In these instructions, where it says, alarms, lights, sound and vibration will be turned off when in silent mode it’s talking about literal alarms, because with the pokemon sleep app, you should be able to set up alarms like an alarm to wake up from bed so it’s not actually talking about the buzzing and light flashing from playing Pokémon go

[@Marco_DLC]

Could you please let me know what one you would recommend now!?

[@edwardendicott3247]

This is my first foray into auto catchers and I'm liking it. Yes it's loud and flashy but I really don't care how people view my poke addiction.

[@dalton6173]

I have one & got my roommate one. When it works it is amazing, although we have had issues with it disconnecting as much as the original plus. Now I have been told tips and tricks which has lowered that although even with the better connectivity you need the autocatchers where you can feel/hear it otherwise you have to check regularly to make sure it is connected.

[@thepokesleeper]

Also I just wanted to add that there is a wake up alarm feature for this device that can only be activated if you connect the device to Pokemon Sleep. Imo this is a really interesting feature because there may be Pikachu may hum the Pokémon Go background music as the wake up alarm and the more you sleep, the more alarm sounds you may unlock. Wake up alarm pros and cons: Pros: The alarm will not ring if you wake up early and stop tracking sleep Cons: You cannot set a different time for different days of the week and the alarm will not ring if you haven’t started tracking sleep with the device 90 minutes before the scheduled alarm time.

I honestly don't like it, but it works for now. Thank you for your view, and I can't wait until you review the next and possibly better alternative!

Lights are annoying. Still on, but there are stickers on AMZ that you can place over and dim the lights. Vibrations are annoying, but there are YT videos that show how to remove a weight from the motor to eliminate the noise. And no Auto Catch with great/ultra balls.

[@Lchends]

It's been 8 months now, now third party auto catchers that can auto throw great and ultras have been released. I read that Go Plus + is harder to reverse engineer

[@nashdashflash]

Love mine, previously had a Gotcha Ranger. The auto-reconnect is great, as I had difficulties connecting my Gotcha at times. I was excited for the sleep tracking but once I complete the missions, I'm probably uninstalling Pokémon Sleep. It's just not as accurate as my Pixel Watch sleep tracking and sometimes gets turned off in the middle of the night, picks up movement from my partner or animals in the bed, can fall off the bed, etc... Plus, the rewards in GO aren't really enough to keep it up. I'm disappointed you can't turn off vibrations and very disappointed you can't click to manually catch a better mon with Great or Ultra balls... I was envisioning it as auto-catching and spinning with regular pokeballs, then when I saw it target something I need more, I could click the button to throw an ultra ball... Would help immensely while walking my dog... I don't understand at all why you have to turn off auto catch in order to throw a great/ultra ball.

[@c.w.simpsonproductions1230]

Man, this is gonna make shiny hunting during Community Days soooooooo much more easier.

[@CatsLilaSalem]

I think the plus + needs a little time because it has more funcions than the pokeball, and can of course use different balls now. An catcher that stops catching is something that happened to me a lot with different catchers

[@tpeasetiger]

Honestly, as annoying as the vibration is if it’s disabled then it makes it sort of useless for the great and ultra ball manual button feature.

[@MattisProbably]

I was wondering why the magnet inside the clip was so weak, too. Turns out it's meant to be attached to your pillow so it won't fall down from your bed! That way you can put the clip on the pillow and just grab the Plus+ without taking the pillow with you :)

[@OrionMcMurry]

Actually, The Go Gatcha does work with diferent balls. All you have to do is set Pokemon Go to use the last ball used, and throw with another ball and it willl throw with that ball until it runs out. As tempting as it is to purchase this device for the new recearch, I can't see spending $60 us dollars on this device., estecally with all the bugs it has. If it was half that I would consider it.

[@thalio03]

Can you make a year update on this now pls .. to see if you found a third party one that is better 😊

[@poeterritory]

I don't get why Niantic does things half assed at times. Those magnets could have been easily a bit stronger Also, the vibration and flashing... sometimes you don't want your devices to do that. Still, it does represent a leap forward... which I feel is well past time. :)

As someone who isn’t a tryhard. and was just curious if it’s worth it. i’ve used it a few days now. and my only problem is. you better travel by poke stops. because you gonna be catching everything. it does spin poke stops however if you’re driving going above 50mph you’re prob not gonna get any stops but when you stop or slow down you will see it go off. last thing is you’re literally a walking disco ball. so if you don’t mind a blinking poke ball that vibrates. have fun! definitely worth it if you play often and have poke balls consistanly

[@draconiscanis4635]

The only thing I wanna point out about the 3rd party competitive device that may end up releasing is that the focus of the 3rd party device will possibly be only Pokémon GO. The whole drive for the PGP+ is Pokémon Sleep and it’s compatibility with Pokémon GO being the big bonus it brought. 3rd Party will most likely only be able to focus on Pokémon GO. And i could be wrong! Maybe they will find a work around to be able to use their device for both. Regardless, great video! Gave me the balance I was looking for in information. Thank you!

[@Eagle6Airsoft]

I would say disconnect issues are a huge con, my evolve after the lastest update won’t start catching unless you look in the menu first. Yet it’s connected… For me it’s for recharging poki balls by spinning stops when I’m travelling. So speed at connecting and it’s speed at catching pokistops while driving would be paramount.

[@tommim2013]

I got mine day 1 and at first I loved it! It was working great and people found a glitch to auto catch using great and ultra balls! Then Niantic found out and released a forced update for POGO on I believe Monday. That update completely killed the usability of the plus plus. Mine refused to use auto catch at all and would just not connect for whatever reason. Happy to report though, as of this morning (Wednesday 7/19) there was another update and now it seems to be working better than ever! No longer can use the great and ultra ball glitch for auto catch but at least it is working as advertised and intended. I’ve used a handful of auto catchers over the years and all things considered (assuming the thing doesn’t start crapping out again) I’m really happy with this device. There are some cons as stated here but I can’t really knock it tbh.

I got a Go-tcha Evolved late 2022 and I was a little bothered that this one came out less than a year later, but I just got the Plus + and I personally like it better than the Go-tcha Evolved!

Also, not having to open it and connect half a USB-A port, but a normal USB-C port (with cable included) is amazing! (Plus the options it brings with Pokémon Sleep as an alarm lol) P.S: I was wondering if there was a way to remove the vibration (I don't really like it in any device), but just got to the part when you say you can't unless you physically alter it :/

Well I am replying to your comment now with Pokémon go and the plus ball set up in the background 😂 I often do that at home because got a pokestop outside my house so just let it do it’s thing while watching you tube or whatever

[@kylie7780]

I agree with your final thoughts.

[@revellations7741]

That price tag is BRUTAL for what it is. But nonetheless great review!

[@tchavezjr]

Interesting breakdown. I need to get one now. But your right. I will wait a few months. Thanks!!

Review of poketubers: Daxi #1

[@andrewtucker2014]

My experience has varied the most when in motion - at around 35/mph/55kph, auto spinning is anecdotally more reliable with a Duomon for me. I tested driving by 20 stops, the Duomon spun all 20 and the Plus+ spun 12 of the 20. I repeated in a few places with a similar outcome. YMMV and I’m sure the Plus+ will continue to improve with more updates but I am sticking with the Duomon for now.

[@NotTeagL]

same here, i’m sure there’s going to be a new duomon soon that’s 10x better

[@PhongTrannn]

I saw someone on reddit saying they got banned because they use Duomon.

[@lesliemandic9673]

I don't suppose it throws a curveball?

[@Annsunshine30]

The vibration and the insane sound, had made me turn it off for good....!! The rest of the family is very thankful that I`ve decided to do so as well! I just decided, that I don`t need a Snorlax with a night cap...

I’ve actually just ordered my + Plus off the back of this video, although you said potentially wait, I’m on the grind for 50k mons Plat medal and this will help! Plus GO FEST WITH AUTOCATCHER YES PLEASE 😂

[@stuartleahy5982]

I get mine tomorrow hopefully so I haven’t been able to test it out for myself but I’ve heard you aren’t able to do it. Only thing I can think that wasn’t covered or spoke about was attaching something like a clip to the button to effectively make it an auto catcher for great or ultra ball (like you had with the pokeball plus) I’ve heard that you can’t do this with the new device, is this correct. A thing I think would be a nice feature improvement if other companies reverse engineer and improve on it is if you are manually clicking having 3 buttons so you can choose pokeball/great or ultra on an individual basis, probably something that might not be possible but a cool option, most people probably want their devices to automatically catch in great or ultra so hopefully these companies can achieve that

[@doritofan1002]

Okay so my issue is that I want it to mainly spin stops for me and it seems like it’s programmed to prioritize catching first. Which is a problem because if there are mons around a stop and you have no balls it will keep trying to catch its target and never spin the stop.

[@wenz8632]

THANKS A LOT. I will wait to check it in several months.

[@MrMysticmatt]

wonder how it works now. Update ordered mine today so we shall see . It is 6 months later from this video an a month after my first comment

[@ICEmegaman]

10 months later, would you recommend it ?

[@dustingray2471]

You can get some window tint and put it over the button it will dim the light so it won't be so bright

[@EnricoManuti]

Are you able to auto-catch using Great and Ultra balls if you use something to hold the button? Kinda like we used to auto-catch with original Go+..

[@bluelight456]

No, doesn't work on the plus + as of now.

[@josepalacio4775]

Maga catchmon is STILL king ! 4 accounts and still going strong almost 2 years later. Definitely would recommend
