Pokémon GO is also coming to Android Wear smartwatches
During last week's Apple Showcase, there was a moment dedicated to Pokémon Go And it is that the fashion game will have its version adapted to the Apple Watch smart watch However, now we know that they will not have the exclusive , and it is that the people of Niantic, developers of the game of Pokémon, also finalize the preparations to support smartwatches with operating system Android Wear
The guys from Pokémon GO Hub have discovered it, a website that closely follows all the steps of this game that is causing (or has caused) a sensation all over the world. Following the publication of the latest update, which adds functions such as the Pokémon friend, they have decided to closely examine the code that those of Niantic have been added. A most interesting exploration to see that support for Android Wear is on the way.
And it would be unfair if Apple Watch users had the chance to play Pokémon GO from the wrist without the Android Wear doing the same. Unfair and unprofitable for Niantic and Nintendo However, the feature looks like it will have to wait a bit longer, having only been discovered a few lines of code regarding support and operation, but it's not finished yet.
As far as is known, watches with Android Wear should communicate with the mobile via Bluetooth to manage all the options available in the game. In addition, it has been known that this data between Pokémon GO for watches and mobile will be encrypted with the AES system, so everything should be safe and no player data leak at any time.
It is also interesting to know that, from Niantic, they are working on the support of Pokémon GO for Android Wear collect a wide range of wrist devices. To do this, and according to research from Pokémon GO Hub, the game would scan the device in question in which it has been installed in order to recognize its components and capabilities.Regarding this analysis, its operation would be adapted, offering more or less characteristics to ensure the correct development of the game through the wrist Something that makes us think that it will be compatible with the first Android Wear, avoiding leaving users who first made the leap to this technology out of the market for gamers.
Now it's just a few lines of code in the last update so far. At the moment we will have to wait, even without a specific date, for the next version of Pokémon GO to see if the support arrives complete and operational.
What has become clear is that Pokémon GO is now ready to work with Pokémon GO Plus The bracelet goes on sale on September 16, and will allow you to catch Pokémon and pick up pokéstops without taking your phone out of your pocket.To do this, it will communicate via Bluetooth with it and it will shine and vibrate every time an event occurs. Of course, it hits the market with a price of 40 euros
