Pokemon Go Plus Plus Sleep Mode : How to Track your Sleep in Pokemon Go Plus
To be eligible for Sleep Mode in Pokemon Go Plus+, you will need to enable the Sleep Data setting. You will see the option to enable this setting in a tutorial when you first connect Pokémon GO to your Pokémon GO Plus + device.
In addition to using the Pokémon GO Plus + device to interact with PokéStops and Gyms or catch Pokémon, you can also use Sleep Mode. Using the Pokémon GO Plus + to track your sleep time can grant you rewards.
To change this Sleep Mode setting at any time:
- In the Map View, tap the Main Menu button.
- At the top right, tap the Settings button.
- Tap Connected Devices and Services.
- Tap Accessory Devices.
- Scroll until you see Sleep Data
- Tap the toggle next to Share Sleep Data with Pokémon GO
Once you are sharing Sleep Mode data, you can set the time of day you would like to receive the Sleep Mode rewards you earned. This will also be the time at which your sleep duration will reset each day. This can be changed at any time in the Pokémon GO Plus + device settings. Note that rewards are not automatically claimed, so you must connect your Pokémon GO Plus + and log into Pokémon GO to claim your rewards each day.
The previous day’s Sleep Mode duration will be logged in your Trainer Profile under Sleep Activity and your rewards will be added to your Journal.
How to Track your Sleep Mode
To be able to claim your Sleep Mode rewards, you must use the Pokémon GO Plus + device to track your sleep. Follow these steps to track your sleep:
- Before you go to Sleep Mode, start a sleep session by holding down the Main Button on the Pokémon GO Plus + until the indicator light flashes blue and you hear a lullaby play.
Note that the Pokémon GO Plus + must be paired with Pokémon GO but not actively connected for play with Pokémon GO to initiate a sleep session. - When you wake up, end your Sleep Mode session by holding the Main Button on the Pokémon GO Plus + until the indicator light flashes multicolored lights. If the indicator light flashes red, this indicates that your sleep log was not recorded successfully or that your sleep session was shorter than 90 minutes.
- Log into Pokémon GO and reconnect your Pokémon GO Plus + to transfer your Sleep Mode data and collect rewards.
Please note that you will not be able to collect rewards in Pokémon GO unless you are sharing Sleep Mode data with Pokémon GO. Toggle this option on the Pokémon GO Plus + settings page.
The Pokémon GO Plus + can also be used with a separate Pokémon app: Pokémon Sleep.
Note that Sleep Mode data that is shared with Pokémon GO is used only for the purpose of calculating rewards and displaying sleep activity in-app. This data is removed from Niantic servers after 1 week. Sleep data is otherwise stored locally on the Pokémon GO Plus + device, not your phone.
Playing with Pokémon Sleep Mode

When Connection Fails

3. If you still cannot connect, please try the following:
• Reboot the Pokémon Sleep app to see if that resolves the issue.
• Restart your smart device to see if that resolves the issue.
• Try to refresh your internet connection to see if that resolves the issue.
• Try to place the Pokémon GO Plus + as close to your smart device as possible.
• If there are other devices nearby that emit radio waves (e.g. microwave oven, cordless phone, etc.), try to either temporarily disconnect them from power or move away from them.
