But now it’s just giving me a full screen of error codes and won’t let me do anything ### 1/5 — Scammed *2026-07-10, version 1.2.80* Just got 300 PAID plugs taken from me on the day of GoFest raids. Literal scam, don't bother ### 3/5 — Great But Strict App *2026-07-07, version 1.2.80* I don’t rate apps often but I feel like when you use an app that takes time investment like Pokémon GO, the support apps you choose to use matter a lot. I’ve been using the app the past 13 days and I’ll say it is a great app for raids. However today my account was surprisingly restricted without an explanation provided. Although I did submit an appeal, it doesn’t seem like if there is an issue you’re not readily able to email or contact support to resolve it. I’m not sure what the issue could have been for the restriction. But for it to happen during the anniversary special and have no way of knowing what I did wrong or how long it takes to resolve the issue I think is worth mentioning. ### 5/5 — One of the Greats *2026-06-01, version 1.2.72* One of the best apps i use to get into remote raid i’ve used it like 6 year probably, and never disappoints ### 1/5 — Scammed *2026-05-24, version 1.2.72* Paid for plugs, payment went through, but received an error on the app and I am now out of $12.99! ### 1/5 — I used to use this app daily *2026-03-04, version 1.2.70* For the last year or so it is completely useless for finding raid partners. I haven’t been able to successfully host a raid in about a year and if it does give me anybody it will only be 1 or 2 people. ### 5/5 — LO RECOMIENDO *2026-02-14, version 1.2.70* Es muy útil, la verdad lo recomiendo ### 4/5 — The trainer card creator is good. Other stuff too expensive. *2026-01-24, version 1.2.70* The trainer card creator is good. Other stuff too expensive. Developer added the option to choose level beyond 50. I could now set Kevel to 70. ### 5/5 — Nice app! *2025-11-20, version 1.2.70* Nice app to ww raid, but only got 5x times a day for raid is too small 😭 why not make free 20x raid invitation please? 🥹 ## Frequently asked questions about GO FRIEND ### What does GO FRIEND do?
