How to download and play Pokemon Go right now

Pokémon Go is Nintendo's first foray into augmented reality apps for Apple and Android devices, and although most of the world can't wait to catch Pokémon on their smartphones, for the moment Pokémon Go has only officially released in the US, Australia and New Zealand, with Pokémon fans in the UK, Japan and the rest of the world having to wait.
Pokémon Go is proving to be hugely popular, so if you're unable to connect to the server, check out the Pokémon Go Server Status page to make sure the server is online. If it's not, that may be why you cannot connect to Pokémon Go.
The good news is that if you're in the US you can now officially download Pokémon Go for Android devices and for Apple iOS devices as well.
However, there is a way for you to play Pokémon Go right now without having to wait for it to launch in your location, and we show you how to download Pokémon Go for both Android and iOS devices.
Read on to find out how to get Pokémon Go without having to wait.

How to download Pokémon Go for Android

If you want to play Pokémon Go on your Android device, and you're not in a country that has made Pokémon Go available through the Google Play store, then the following instructions will show you how to download it from a third-party website.

Download the Pokémon Go APK file

First you need to allow your Android device to install and run apps downloaded from other places. Be cautious when you turn on this setting, as you'll want to make sure you only download apps you know are safe and reliable.

Open up Settings and go to Security. Scroll down and next to where it says 'Unknown sources', tap the toggle to turn this setting on.
Now you need to download the Pokémon Go APK file. On your Android device go to the Pokémon Go APK webpage and tap on 'Download APK'. Select 'OK' when the warning message appears and Pokémon Go will download.

How to download and install Pokémon Go on iPhone

If you have an iPhone or another iOS device, then the process for getting Pokémon Go is slightly different.
While Pokémon Go is available on the App Store, if it's not available in your country follow our instructions on how to download and install it.

Log out of your Apple ID

First of all, you'll need to make your iPhone belive you're in a region that can download Pokémon Go. Open up Settings on your iPhone, tap on 'Apple ID' and select to sign out.
Now go back into Settings and select General > Language & Region. Set your region as US, New Zealand or Australia - all of these regions can download Pokémon Go.

Open up the App Store

Now open up the App Sotre. Search for Pokémon Go and it should appear. If it doesn't choose a free app to download and select 'Create new Apple ID'.
Go through the process of creating an Apple ID and select 'None' in the Billing menu and add a US, New Zealand or Australian address. Google can come in handy here if you need to search for an address.

Download Pokémon Go onto your iPhone

Now you can download and install Pokémon Go onto your iPhone or iPad. Once Pokémon Go is released in your region you can sign back in with your Apple ID - though you may need to reinstall Pokémon Go.
Luckily your data is saved to the cloud, so you'll be able to play Pokémon Go where you left off.
