Pokemon GO Live Map For Mac

Pokemon GO Live Map is a simple OS X utility that enables you to see all the Pokemon related locations in your area in real time. The project essentially provides a graphical user interface for the open source PokemonGo-Map visualization tool.

To start using the Pokemon GO Live Map app, you must either login using PTC, or with Google. For the latter, besides your account’s credentials, you will also have to generate a Google Maps API key (Pokemon GO Live Map provides an online guide on how to deal with the task).

If everything goes well, within the Pokemon GO Live Map main window you will be able to see your location on the map, together with the Pokemon creatures that are around you, convenient Pokemon stops or gyms, and so on.

Via the Pokemon GO Live Map Options panel you get to quickly switch to a new location on the map, decide which markers should be visible on the map, or if you want to see the scanned areas.

The same region enables you to update the list of Pokemon you want to be hidden by default, or choose to receive a notification whenever a particular type is around. Last but not least, you get to change the map style.

Pokemon GO Live Map provides details about each Pokemon related spot, such as the Pokemon’s type, if it’s common or not, when it disappears, but also the exact location. If your mobile access is enabled, you can even get directions with the help of the Google Maps app.

To get access to the map on the mobile side, Pokemon GO Live Map generates a QR code that has to be scanned on the mobile device. If you don’t want to use the code, directly input the generated URL in any web browser.

Moreover, Pokemon GO Live Map can also display statistical data about the map, letting you know the importance each element has in the area.

Pokemon GO Live Map provides an Electron-based user interface that can help you view Pokemon GO markers on a Google Maps representation. As a result, you can both find good Pokemon spots near you, and get directions on how to get there.
