Pokémon GOdown detector — live outage reports & map

This page is a free, live Pokémon GO down detector and server-status checker. It tells you if Pokémon GO is down or not working right now — aggregating real user reports, an outage map and history, an independent check from our own servers, and whether Pokémon GO is down for everyone or just you, with what else goes down with it.

Frequently asked

Is Pokémon GO down right now?+

We can't fully confirm Pokémon GO's status right now. Pokémon GO doesn't publish a status feed, and a basic reachability check can't tell whether its servers are down. Status here is community-reported — be the first to report if it's down for you.

How can I tell if it's Pokémon GO or my own connection?+

Pokémon GO doesn't publish a status feed we can read, and a basic reachability check can't tell whether its servers are down (the website often stays up while the service is down). So DownRN leans on user reports: if lots of people are reporting Pokémon GO down here, it's almost certainly Pokémon GO's side. If reports are quiet, try restarting the app, switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data, or signing out and back in.

What is Pokémon GO's server status right now?+

Pokémon GO is currently unknown. Pokémon GO doesn't publish a status feed we can read, so DownRN determines its server status from an independent reachability check plus live community reports — refreshed every 60 seconds, and we never invent numbers.

Is there a Pokémon GO down detector?+

Yes — this page is a live Pokémon GO down detector. It aggregates real user reports, shows an outage map and recent incident history, runs an independent check from our own servers, and tells you whether Pokémon GO is down for everyone or just you — plus what else goes down with it. It's free, with no login, and DownRN never invents report numbers.

Is Pokémon GO down for everyone or just me?+

If lots of people are reporting problems here right now, Pokémon GO is down for everyone — not just you. If reports are quiet, it's more likely on your end: try switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data, restarting the app, or clearing your cache. DownRN shows live report volume so you can tell the difference fast — and Pokémon GO's outage map shows which areas are affected.

Why is Pokémon GO slow or not working?+

Common causes are an upstream provider incident, API rate limits during peak demand, a regional CDN issue, or maintenance. Pokémon GO is currently unknown. We show the official status, our independent check, and a confidence level so you can see which signals point to a real problem.

Is there a Pokémon GO outage today?+

Pokémon GO is currently unknown. DownRN tracks Pokémon GO outages in real time and keeps a full outage history — see the live status above, and past Pokémon GO incidents with their durations and recovery times on the outage history page. We never invent outages.

What's wrong with Pokémon GO right now?+

Based on our checks, Pokémon GO is unknown right now. The problems people report most are login, the feed, messaging or payments — see the live reports and the "what usually breaks" breakdown above for the specific surfaces affected, plus what else is going down with it.

Is Pokémon GO down in my area or region?+

Outages can be regional — a CDN, routing or ISP issue can hit one area while the rest of the world is fine. DownRN's Pokémon GO outage map shows where people are reporting problems right now, by country and US state, so you can see whether Pokémon GO is down in your area or everywhere.

What can I use while Pokémon GO is down?+

Good alternatives include Roblox, Minecraft. We track their live status too, so you can switch to one that's currently operational.

Where is Pokémon GO's official status page?+

Pokémon GO's official status page is at https://niantic.helpshift.com/hc/en/6-pokemon-go/. DownRN reads it automatically and combines it with our own checks and user reports — so you get the answer without juggling tabs.
