    I went cold turkey: deleted the app, stopped following r/pokemongo and so on, deleted my bookmarks, and I don’t miss it at all. We went on a short vacation a few months later and about 3 days in I realized how much I was enjoying myself because I didn’t feel an obligation to find every gym/waypoint just to spin them.

      I can definitely relate to that! I used to try and find something special as a keep sake in the game to remember my trips abroad, so I’d waste quite a bit of the holiday trying to find something.

      The only thing I will say the game does well and I do miss about it is that it’s a great game to play as a couple. Me andy husband had quite a few dates that we probably wouldn’t have bothered to do if it wasn’t for events in the game. We’ve tried replacements like Orna but they just don’t really hit the same spot.
