### 5/5 — Great for team building! With some suggestions

*2026-02-22*

This app has been great for team building. I have been winning waaaay more pvp battles than I did before building my own teams. 

However I noticed sometimes it biases certain pokemon too heavily in the team building automation. There have been times that it generates me a great team and then I input more pokemon and then it will start recommending worse teams with the new pokemon.

I also think it could be helpful if you could edit the pokemon you personally have to make it more personally applicable. It would be helpful if you could put in the IVs or moves of the pokemon you have so the algorithm weights certain pokemon differently.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the review and the detailed feedback. Really glad to hear the app has been helping you win more battles.

Good news — as of the latest update, you can already set custom moves for your Pokémon. Here's a guide on how to use it: https://pogoteams.app/blog/custom-movesets-guide/

As for custom IVs and algorithm weighting — I hear you, and these are on the radar. The app is under active development and I take all suggestions into account, just working through priorities at the moment. Thanks again for the support.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app and I’m here to support it!

*2026-02-13*

This nifty app is only getting better day after day! Rather than needing a spreadsheet to try and guess matchups and cross referencing what I see on pvppoke.com, it’s all here in the app! Well, it’s almost all here as updates are frequent as adoption increases.

**Developer response:** I'm really happy you enjoy the app! If you're reading this, send me an email (you can find it in the About section in settings) with what you'd like to see next. Cheers!

### 5/5 — Fantastic team builder!

*2026-01-26*

This app is super fun and makes team building way less daunting of a task. It can take your whole inventory of Pokemon and craft potential teams based on meta relevance and synergy in a few seconds. You can also choose a single ‘mon you really want to use and search for other teammates that pair well with it. Great for making strong teams and great for finding spicy inclusions!

### 3/5 — Ads now?

*2026-01-15*

App is great… only thing is, after using for a bit, there are now ads in the app. Just curious if there would ever be a paid version where we can be ad free?

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! The option to remove ads permanently is now available — go to Settings and toggle 'Remove Ads'. Glad you're enjoying PoGoTeams!

### 1/5 — Do not download

*2026-01-02*

This app sent me a phishing email pretending to be Apple trying to get me to change my password

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear about this. I can confirm that this app does not send emails and does not collect or require any email addresses or personal data. The message you received could not have originated from the app.

### 5/5 — Feedback
