Works good. (Not a fan of buying coins but you can save up the free dailys for when you need to use them. Coins not mandatory for anything other than autojoin that i use) Also. If you get a bad host when using autojoin and the host doesnt actually host. The customer service is great and give you a ticket for free autojoin. So no stress if that happens!

TLDR - Want to join remote raids? Get this app! Honestly, it is a great companion app for Pokémon GO if you either use remote raid passes or want to get remote raiders in to help you. Once you discover that this app can run as a sort of overlay over the game, such that you don't have to switch between apps, it is really smooth and easy to use!

So, a few months ago this app came out and I left a very negative review of it. However, this app is actually tremendously useful. I have gotten probably a dozen regional pokemon that I wouldn't have been able to get without the app. Stakataka most recently. They also refund you coins if you get placed into a lobby and don't get the invite or something else happens. Even if it is your fault, they still refund you. Really great app. You should use it if you raid.

App has a poor and difficult to navigate user interface. App on general needs touch ups for better usability. After inputting credentials, I have not been able to stop a message from popping up on my screen. Every so often, a message saying "Error! Unable to load data, Please try again! " and is incredibly infuriating to deal with. I am yet to remove it despite deleting the app. Overall bad experience.

Incredibly useful to find remote raids at all hours. I've easily done 5-10 raids in the time it takes to coordinate 1 or 2 locally in a metropolitan city. The app design could use a few improvements, but I won't knock them points for how well it works. When you join a raid group it copies the host's friend code to your clipboard so you can conveniently add them for the raid, however, this wasn't glaringly obvious to some newer users as the text pops up briefly and then they hold up the raid.

The app works great if you want to find raids anywhere in the world. If you only use it for that purpose, it won't disappoint. Keep in mind the volume of GO! players using the app... you may have to be patient when trying to join a raid with a boss who's newly released. I would have given 5*, but the auto-join feature has been very unreliable. I have waited hours, only to have the function shut off when I'm next or have 1 trainer ahead of me. Then I'm back at the end of the line. 😡

I'm pretty annoyed that I ended up in about 5 different rooms where the host was unresponsive. Any other time I couldn't join because they would fill up ridiculously fast, even if I seemingly got in there first. This app basically requires you to purchase coins and use auto-join. And apparently you're not even guaranteed a working room with that! Because I ended up wasting 50 coins waiting on a room that never worked! Because, once again, the host was unresponsive!

This app is great. Sometimes you are next to a gym where you cant get enough people to fight in a tough raid or just found a raid but dont have enough people to beat it. Its a simple invite or join (you just need remote raid if you're joining or if you cant reach the gym during the time). There is even a rating system but it can be broken at sometimes. There are a few issues, some being when you go into a group and the host doesn't invite the people at all. But other than that, its great!

I never leave reviews but after trying to use this app during Go Fest, I am super disappointed in it's performance. Any other time, the app is fast and everything loads. Right now, all I keep getting is an error message telling me to try again later or the load symbol just spins and spins. If it does happen to load the screen, all the rooms at that point are full. I can't get into any raids. So the app is useless at that point.

Like everyone else is saying; Great Concept but there is room for improvement. I was stoked when I found this app two weeks ago! For the first few days I had no problems and no complaints. For the last week (no matter what time it is) Every single room is full. It's extremely frustrating when multiple spots are supposedly left but when you try to enter it's full, and the description still won't update to inform you. On the plus side I always have people to help me with five stars.

It's a great app. *DEV SUGGESTION* when your in an auto raid room have the app have an option to send your phone a text when your close within a few hundred people ahead of you. When you close your phone screen *which happens a lot because life is busy* it doesn't keep track of your placement. It has to refresh and let you know what number your att again. Iv missed so many raids I have had to wait most the day for and it's beyond frustrating. The app is awesome for the most part otherwise!

I like this app so far. Its much easier to use now than it was years ago. The downside is having to pay for auto join, and then staring at your phone for a long time, or waiting forever to get in if you don't do auto join. I also just hosted my first raid, someone backed out after the room filled and I sent my invites. This allowed for a new person to jump in, but I didn't see her. I wish there was a notification for those things because I unintentionally left someone out.

UPDATE: I'm revising my review as the app has been improved as of late. They've implemented a new feature that allows you to only auto-join with users with high ratings, which so far has worked well; I've rarely lost coins to trolls or bad users who forget to send invites with this setting activated. There is also a notification sound when you're ready to join a lobby which has been very helpful. Overall, my experience has lately been much better.

Polished, clean UI and decent raiding system. However, what holds this back from a 4 or 5 is its more aggressive approach to premium features compared to competitors; as a nonpaying user it can be difficult or nigh impossible to get into raids of high demand (e.g. legendaries) without the use of coins, a mostly premium currency. A decent choice if you're looking for a remote raids tool, but I personally recommend Pokegenie for its less premium-based focus.

I love this app which gives you the availability to potentially catch "regionals" that players may never get in their specific location of the world. It allows you to acquire new PoGo friends from all around the world. You only need some remote raid passes, then use the "auto add" feature, which allows you to get alerted whenever one of the raids you'd like to do is available, and it'll add you to an available group. That's only 2 of the many options this app gives you.

I feel the need for this app. The issues I had was that every raid I tried to join with it was already full the instant I selected it and with the limit to how many friends you can invite making a room larger then 6 is worthless. Overall this app is just too difficult to use especially when you are new to this system or have been trying to join a remote raid for 30+ min.

Was 5 stars but has been lagging since the last update. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling. Also tried multiple devices and different networks to make sure it wasn't my connection. Have multiple family and friends with same issues. It is taking so long to enter a room that it is full before it has loaded. Refresh rate is now very slow. Also getting a lot of "unexpected error" messages. If lagging/refresh rate is fixed, then will be a five star app again.

Does it work? Yes, very well. I have been able to find help to get many of the 5 star raids. The loading times are an issue, though. 5 seconds to load a page, so by that time, the raid is full, pushing for auto join, which costs 50 coins, so you end up using them fast. There's no indication you've been put in a room unless you stare at the screen, so you can accidently end up spending more than you intend sometimes.

I really enjoy the app, the only thing I am not the biggest fan of is the lack of a changelog or release note feature. I am noticing a lot of things that are either released or changed but don't have a clear description or explanation. Some sort of release notes on things changed would be super helpful, and if there is already, it being more widely accessible would be awesome.

It could be a great app, but too many issues for what it is. My main gripes are it is definitely geared towards people using the autojoin function, which requires collecting coins, or paying money for them. But when you do use autojoin you can wait a long time (i waited nearly an hour for it). Not everyone has time to just hang out staring at their phone. Trying to join manually has become a joke. It feels like they have intentionally lagged the screen to join a room, leaving you out of luck.
