Niantic has said that they would be updating Pokemon GO regularly, and so far they’ve hold true to their promise. A new update for the game is available. Players can download version 1.0.3 / 0.29.3 as of now.

Admittedly, the update doesn’t do a whole lot. The official patch notes say that minor text fixes have been implemented.

Pokemon GO

Pokemon GO had its first update earlier today – version 1.0.1 / 0.29.1. However, iOS users may encounter issues after applying the patch. Polygon reports that Pokemon GO is locking out players who use their Pokemon Trainer Club account to access the app.

The first Pokemon GO update was mainly intended to fix bugs and make the experience smoother. For the full rundown, check out our post here.

If Niantic has anything to say about the situation, we’ll pass that along.

Version 1.2 for Cube Life: Island Survival is now available. The patch came out within the past few days in North America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and Japan.

Android users now have access to a new version of Miitomo. Earlier today, version 1.3.1 released. We haven’t seen any equivalent on iOS (at least for now), and given the version change, this likely implements some bug fixes.
