Is Pokemon Go Down: Tens Of Thousands Report Outage As Login And GPS Errors Hit Players
Pokemon Go experienced a widespread outage on Friday, with more than 20,000 users reporting problems on Downdetector, as players across the country found themselves locked out of the popular augmented-reality mobile game.
More than 20,000 users had reported issues with the platform as of 3.27 pm PT, according to Downdetector, which tracks outages by collecting status reports from multiple sources, with most users reporting problems specifically with the game’s launch. Downdetector’s own tracking showed user reports surging around 6.15 pm ET, according to the outage-monitoring service’s post on social media platform X, which asked players, “How is it affecting you?”
Reports from affected players point to two distinct technical failures rather than a single fault. Most players have been hit with a “no network” error where the game fails to load past the login screen, while in other cases, even when the game does load, a “GPS error” pops up and prevents the game from functioning normally. According to tracking data, Pokemon Go has been down since around 2.30 pm PT, with frustrated players taking to social media platforms including Reddit and X to voice their complaints about the disruption.
