Get Pokemon Go for windows

How do you get Pokémon Go on Windows 10 mobile? With the PoGo-UWP Universal Windows Platform client!

Up until now, Windows 10 and Windows 10 Mobile users have been shut out of the fun, with very little information on whether or not we'll ever get an official app, like Pokémon Go on iPhoneenjoys. Thankfully, ST-Apps has managed to port Pokemon Go to UWP (via Reddit), running it as an open source project on Github. This is an early beta test version, so it's missing a lot of Pokemon Go's best features including the game's augmented reality features and 3D models.

Still, if you want to help test the app and contribute to development, you'll need to follow some simple, but advanced steps to get it running on your phone, as it's not available in the Windows 10 Store. All you need is a PC and Windows 10 Mobile connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Here's what you need to know.

1. Create a Pokémon Trainer Club account. You can do that right over here on the official website.
2. Login via the official Android or iOS client. You can also use Bluestacks, an Android emulator for Windows.
3. Select a starting Pokémon. I expect Daniel Rubino would recommend Squirtle.
4. Log out from the official app by tapping on the Pokeball icon and going to settings. If you're on Bluestacks without a GPS signal, close the app by pressing the 'X' icon on the app tab.
5. Download these Github files to a PC connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your Windows 10 Mobile: #1 - #2 - #3. Place them in the same folder.
6. Enable Device Portal on your Windows 10 Mobile. Go to Settings and search "For developers". Enable Developer mode, Device discovery, and Device Portal. Make sure it's connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your PC.

• At the bottom of the Device Portal settings, you will see an IP address. Navigate to this IP address on the PC containing the Github files.
• Click on the Apps section on the Device Portal in your PC browser.
• Add the file "PokemonGo-UWP_1.0.3.0_ARM_Debug.appx" under Install App, then Add package.
• Add the two other files as dependencies. The browser window should look something like the screenshot below.

• Click on Go beneath Deploy. Wait until the app is installed on your phone.
• Launch PoGo-UWP on your phone, login with the account you set up earlier, and enjoy!

Note: Since PoGo-UWP is an open-source beta test, expect bugs, crashes, and other issues. You might want to check back on Github in the coming weeks for updates. You can follow the list of known issues right here. We'll also be following the app's development intently, so stay tuned to Windows Central and we'll let you know when there's a new update.

While this solution isn't as ideal as an official app from Niantic, it once again shows how impressive the Windows developer community can be when it comes to bringing us apps and services the platform has historically lacked.

Let us know in the comments if you plan to use this method! I'll also stick around to answer any questions you may have.
