Title: Pokemon go won't work!
Post by: The name master on July 18, 2016, 20:42
I went out to search for pokemon, but after I left my house and lost Internet, it wouldn't work. I closed it and reopened it and it wouldn't load. Why?

What kind of phone do you have? Is the app allowed to access mobile data?

You can also use google...

It did say GPS signal not found. I don't know if it's because of where I was. There were lots of trees that could be blocking the signal....

I don't have the game, but that sounds like the same problem one of my friends kept running into. As others have said, it's probably just the servers acting up. Keep trying and it should work eventually.

 You could take it down the Job Centre if it still isn't working.
