After Pokemon Goan extremely popular game that takes people out into the fresh air to catch Charmander or even Pikachu is up for grabs Pokemon sleepwhich was released in mid-July to appeal to fans of the Pokémon universe.

The operation of Pokemon sleepthat resembles a sleep tracker is enough to make all the Snorlax (sleeping Pokemon) in this world jealous.

The user puts their phone near their head before bedtime. With the help of sensors, the application detects vibrations and assesses the quality of his sleep. The better this quality, the more Pokémon users collect.

Developed by Japanese studio Select Button, the game was the most downloaded in the week of July 16, according to analytics company data.ai.

As of Friday, the title had been downloaded 10 million times.

Madness, in vain?

However, that enthusiasm may wane in the coming weeks, comments on the Google Play Store and App Store say.

Internet users point to a lack of interconnectivity with other tools such as smartwatches or Apple’s Health application.

Many also don’t like that the app doesn’t run in the background. It should be kept open and the smartphone should be placed upside down near the pillow as this may cause the device to overheat.

Others complain that the game is repetitive and that it’s easy to trick to get better rewards.

Note that The Pokémon Company is trying to succeed where several health apps like Calm, Fitbit or even Sleep Cycle are already excelling.

According to Bloomberg, the company has already announced that it is exploring ways to connect its game to more devices.

The app has been available in Canada since July 16 on iOS and Android devices.
