Pokemon GO is here, and several days after its wide release, some players are still experiencing problems. Frequent server outages aren’t the only issues — compatibility isn’t exactly clear. Only certain phones will run Pokemon GO, and even if you can download this massive F2P app on your iPhone or Android device, you still might not be able to play it.

Check and see if your device is supported with the full list of requirements below. This is the official list, provided by Niantic, the developers that created Pokemon GO, and is the best way to see if your smartphone has the hardware required to enjoy this augmented reality app.


See if your device is supported with the official list found on the Niantic help site here.

Supported devices

Android

  • Android 4.4 to Android 6.0.1
    (Android N will not supported until the official Android release)
  • Preferred resolution of 720×1280 pixels (Not optimized for tablet)
  • Strong internet connection (Wi-Fi, 3G, or 4G)
  • GPS and Location Services
  • Intel CPUs are not supported

iOS

  • iPhone 5+
  • iOS 8+
  • Strong internet connection (Wi-Fi, 3G, or 4G)
  • GPS and Location Services

If you’re experiencing issues and can’t access Pokemon GO, even if you meet the minimum requirements, take the last option and report a bug to Niantic here.
