Pokemon Go has been updated on all platforms, bringing it to version 0.53.1 on Android and 1.23.1 on iOS.

The update is, unfortunately, not very exciting - no new Pokemon Go features or event content. The biggest change is an improvement to GPS tracking, which now accounts for drift.

Oh, and there's a handy fix for those of you using your Apple Watch to play Pokemon Go, which must be someone, right?

  • Changed distance tracking to better account for GPS drift
  • Minor text fixes.
