A native Android client that maps nearby Pokémon in real-time using Pokémon GO's API.
Pokemap is a native Android application that maps nearby Pokémon, gyms, and Pokéstops in real-time by interfacing with Pokémon GO's server APIs. It provides players with a visual overview of their in-game surroundings to aid in exploration and gameplay. However, using the app violates Niantic's Terms of Service and may result in account bans.
Pokémon GO players on Android who want to track nearby Pokémon and game locations more effectively, and developers interested in reverse-engineered game APIs.
It offers a free, dedicated Android client for real-time Pokémon mapping, built on community-driven open-source tools, though it carries risks due to its violation of game terms.
