How to Use the Egg Hatching Adventure Sync Widget in Pokemon GO

Pokemon GO’s gameplay expands the franchise’s universe by allowing trainers to catch creatures and battle other users in real-life locations around the world. However, since the game uses an actual step count progress system, it may be challenging to keep track of your egg-hatching process daily. So, to help with this occurrence, we’ll show you how to use the egg-hatching Adventure Sync widget in Pokemon GO.

How to Activate Adventure Sync in Pokemon GO

Before players place a widget in Pokemon GO, they must first turn on the Adventure Sync mechanic in the game. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to do this procedure:

1. Press the Main Menu button (the Poke Ball.)
2. Select ‘Settings.’
3. Turn on ‘Adventure Sync.’
4. Tap ‘Allow All The Time’ in your phone’s location settings.

Now that the Adventure Sync is on, the mechanic will record your steps when the Pokemon GO app is not open. In return, players can hatch eggs faster, earn Buddy Candy, receive weekly fitness reports, and obtain additional rewards. This feature also gives players access to the Pokemon GO widget system on their phones. But keep in mind that you must at least be at Trainer Level 5 or above to activate the Adventure Sync.
