Nothing works for me. I have tried many suggestions from different sites but it won’t work.
Try to disable auto-rotate and see if it works!
I updated my illipis 7 to a 10 ever since I get unfortunately Pokémon go has stopped. I’ve tried all the fixes listed and still don’t work, have uninstalled and reinstalled cleared cache, force stopped, cleared data, restarted, shut down, nothing works
As soon as I try to catch any pokemon, I get an ‘unfortunately Pokemon go has stopped working’ message. I did the steps above and still don’t work. Any suggestions?
None of these suggestions worked for me. Had to allow pokemon go access to everything except my contacts. Then I could finally avoid this error & get back in.
Method #2 worked fine for me, thanks 🙂
