What is PoGo-UWP?

PoGo-UWP is an UWP (Universal Windows Platform) client for Niantic's Pokemon™ Go Android/iOS game. Being a client, this means that it gives you the ability to play in the same game-world as your friends that are playing with an Android or iOS device.

Why PoGo-UWP?

  • Because learning new things is always cool
  • Because it could be done
  • Because Microsoft rejected my job application saying that I wasn't showing enough "passion", and this proves them wrong :)

FAQ

Will this work on Windows Phone 8.1?

No. But everyone's free to port my code to WP8.1 if he wishes.

Does the game support AR & 3D?

No, for both of them. I'm just a single dev, I'm not Niantic.

Can I play with the same account that I'm using on my Android/iOS device?

Yes.

Will it run on low-end devices?

It should, but I couldn't test it. It works with the 512MB-ram emulator, so I'm quite confident that it should be ok on real devices too.

Device portal returns error 0x80073cf6

Change storage settings from SD card to phone storage. More infos here

If you already had the app installed, probably a reboot is required (reported by f1516904)
