Pokémon GO players will want to check their smartphones as there’s a new update for the game available for download. The ultra successful mobile title Pokémon GO has been updated to version 0.33.0 for Android and 1.3.0 for iOS devices. Here’s the patch notes:
- Added a dialog to remind Trainers that they should not play while traveling above a certain speed. Trainers must confirm they are not driving in order to continue playing.
- Made improvements to the accuracy of a curveball throw
- Fixed a bug that prevented ”Nice,” ”Great,” and “Excellent” Poké Ball throws from awarding the appropriate XP bonuses.
- Fixed achievements showing incorrect Medal icons.
- Enabled the ability for Trainers to change their nickname one time. Please choose your new nickname wisely.
- Resolved issues with the battery saver mode on iOS and re-enabled the feature.
- Added visuals of Team Leaders Candela, Blanche, and Spark.
- We’re currently testing a variation of the “Nearby Pokémon” feature with a subset of users. During this period you may see some variation in the nearby Pokémon UI.
- Minor text fixes

“Minor text fixes”
YES! Been waiting for this for forever!…but when will the major text fixes come?
Sweet! This should shut a good people up! And any improvements the better. :P
And I’ve been trying out this new nearby feature, it’s FAR more responsive and accurate than the last one.
I’m you can thank us for fixing your game by speaking out against shitty customer service from a company making fuck-tons of cash.
In other words, you fucking welcome.
……….What?
I see your smartphone let you down with that comment, Jaded.
lmao, this one is the best one: “Trainers must confirm they are not driving in order to continue playing.”
Added a dialog to remind Trainers that they should not play while traveling above a certain speed. Trainers must confirm they are not driving in order to continue playing.
But humanity will never evolve as a species if we’re protected from our natural selection process..
“Added a dialog to remind Trainers that they should not play while traveling above a certain speed. Trainers must confirm they are not driving in order to continue playing.”
It’s sad Niantic has to add these warnings to their game. Common sense truly has died in this world. :/
R.I.P. Common sense.

So, you can take a bus or a taxi since you are technically not driving?
There’s a button that says “I’m a passenger”
My nearby now has grass. And for the first time, I had several occasions of ZERO Pokemon nearby. But ti was totally random.
