Pokémon Go Plus: Currently bracelet issues with iOS 11
Apple recently released the latest version of its mobile operating system for the iPhone. Unfortunately, iOS 11 causes trouble for Pokémon Go players, at least if you use the Pokémon Go Plus gadget.

- The developer Niantic is aware of this problem. A solution is currently being prepared, but Pokémon collectors still have to be patient.
- It remains to be seen when the error will be resolved. On the associated support page, those affected can find out about the current status at any time. Currently (as of September 29, 2017), this is "INVESTIGATING" - it is therefore looking for the exact causes of the problem and a solution.
