'Pokemon Go' bugs problems update 2016: Some workarounds to fix them

The "Pokemon Go" craze is felt all around the world. People are often seen staring at their mobile phones and walking around trying to catch everything. Safe to say, everyone who has tried it is hooked.

Ever since the game being rolled out, there has also been a lot of information about the errors and different bugs users experienced as they played the game.

GameSpot recently reported such known issues, which can be seen below along with the possible fixes they have:

1. PokeCoins and premium items are not in "My Account"

Players are advised to sign out and sign back in to the game. Normally such issues can be resolved but in other cases, restarting the whole device will help restore the items.

2. Android phones receive "You already own this item" error

It normally happens when one loses connection while purchasing PokeCoins. Restarting the entire device should help resolve the problem.

3. Trainer progress resets to first level

According to the sources, this usually happens when a user accidentally creates two "Pokemon Go" accounts. One is when the user logs in with Google, and the other using the Pokemon Trainer Club.

The fix for this is to log-out through the settings menu and log back in using only the first account made.

4. Location issues on the game

The game developers are still working to make the GPS accuracy on the game better, but the users have to ensure that the game's location permission is enabled, there is an active and stable internet connection present, the device's GPS is enabled and set to high-accuracy mode.

5. Heavy battery use

At the moment, many are complaining about the strong battery usage of the phone while playing "Pokemon Go." The developers are aware of the situation and are working to address it immediately.

So far these are the errors present on the game. Although they are lengthy, the popularity of "Pokemon Go" cannot be denied and should remain relevant for mobile gamers for months to come.
