Does Pokemon GO Use a Lot of Your Mobile Data?
Last updated
Ever wondered if playing Pokemon GO drains your data plan? Let’s break it down and find out just how much data this popular game uses.
Does Pokemon GO take a lot of data? This is a question many mobile gamers ask, especially those who love catching Pokemon in the real world.
Short Answer: Not Really
Pokemon GO is designed to be data-friendly. On average, it uses less than a few megabytes per hour of gameplay. This is pretty manageable for most mobile data plans.
However, your data usage can vary depending on how much you play. If you’re out hunting Pokemon, battling in gyms, and participating in raids all day, your data usage will naturally be higher than someone who only checks in for a few minutes each day.
