Pokémon GO interface update causes players to miss daily incense usage
A recent update to Pokémon GO has altered the user interface for the ‘Walk Incense’ feature, leading to widespread reports of players missing their daily usage. Around September 1, the icon previously displayed on the main field screen was removed.
Users must now access the feature by opening their bag and scrolling to find it. This change has made the once-visible icon easy to overlook, causing many players to miss their once-a-day opportunity to use the item. This is particularly impactful for those attempting to catch rare Pokémon such as Galarian Articuno, Galarian Zapdos, and Galarian Moltres, which are tied to the incense usage.
Players have expressed frustration over the lack of official communication regarding the change, noting that the primary benefit appears to be a slightly clearer screen at the cost of convenience.
