I need help, for some reason I’m getting “GPS Signal Not Found”, but I downloaded the game legally from the Australian App Store on my iPhone 6S. Right now I’m in Thailand for a holiday and it was working yesterday for half the day, but then it stopped and it hasn’t worked since. Can anyone help me?

Regarding the battery drainage issues, the Pokemon Company can work on the next logical thing: Charjabug power banks.

First, let me say this: Rogue User. As someone who tried to play it early, take my advice and wait for the actual release, because it has a ton of problems right now for the version early users are using. With that being said for what it is, it’s pretty fun It got me off of my butt and walked around the neighborhood. I live in a suburban area and thought there’d be nothing here in pokemon and pokestops. But there were a couple stops, a nice variety of pokemon (Pidgey, eevee, nidoran male and female, caterpie, weedle, tangela, oddish, bellsprout, koffing, poliwag, etc) and even a couple of gyms. The problem I had though was that the game kept losing me and when i walked towards tall grass, it wouldnt recognize it. So I stupidly used a lure, thinking that would help. However, when a pokemon would approach me, the game would crash. Plus… Yeah, sadly, it’s a gigantic battery drainer v.v I walked around for a half hour and my battery went from 100 to 50. Dont know if it’s my phone, the game, or what, but there it is.

When do you think that GO will release in other areas?

In reply to EarthenWarrior. Well, the camera is a battery drainer in general, recording a video already kills the battery real hard. Imagine an app on top of that.

Apparently Pokemon GO is a battery drainer

In reply to The Aqua Flygon. Australia is great, but they have low population density so despite the size of their lands, there's less people to deal with in a beta test or initial release. <3 Plus Aussies have enough wilderness, so devs can check how Pokemon appear in less populated areas, and maybe tweak it.

In reply to Daedardus.

Er in kickstarters though, that fancy dinner with the devs usually starts at $10,000…

Though I would agree that $160 is worth the real life Pokeballs, massage and fancy dinner (without the devs)… <3
