Sign-up goes straight to the guided tour instead of stacking intro screens and questions in front of your first scan. • Look around before you set up. You can explore the app before adding your Pokémon GO profile screenshot. Live Scan still needs it so it can write to your Nexus Dex profile. • Shiny release issue discovered (wasn't feeding through to "did you catch these", fixed and all future released automated to feed in. ### 1.7.7 — 2026-08-15 Share your hunt, earn 7 days free Pro! • New share button on every Nexus Dex Pokédex, send friends a card showing your completion rings and three Pokémon you're still hunting, straight into iMessage or Discord. • Invite friends, everyone wins: when 2 friends join from your invite link and finish their first scan, you all get 7 days of Nexus Dex Pro free. • Your invite link now lives front-and-centre: Code is the first tab in Add a friend, with one-tap sharing. • NEW Scan History log, background work for future raid features preparation, and plenty of polish. ### 1.7.6 — 2026-08-14 - Battle Hub; the live GO Battle League meta for Great, Ultra and Master leagues, with each pick's recommended moveset, and filters for type and region. Rankings from PvPoke. - Quick Update: Post-event: when an event finishes, tick off what you caught in one go instead of hunting through your dex for each one. - Who can get you this?
