What Speed Does Pokemon GO Count as Walking?
Last updated
Ever wondered at what pace you need to move to rack up those kilometers in Pokemon GO? Let’s dive into the specifics of how the game tracks your walking speed.
For all the Pokemon GO enthusiasts eager to hatch those eggs or earn candy with your buddy, understanding the game’s speed limit for walking is crucial. So, what speed does Pokemon GO count as walking?
The Magic Number: 10.5 km/h
Yes, you read that right! Pokemon GO considers any movement below 10.5 kilometers per hour (approximately 6.5 miles per hour) as walking. This speed limit ensures that players move at a pace that’s safe and reasonable, encouraging exploration and exercise.
Going above this speed might signal to the game that you’re not walking. This could mean you’re on a bike, in a car, or using some other form of transportation. The game won’t count this movement towards your walking distance. So, to make every step count, keep your pace under the speed cap.
