Facebook account linking, email changes and more login options coming to Pokémon GO

Trainers,

Niantic is soon going begin rolling out support for account linking with Facebook. Along with a simpler sign-in process.

Why new Linking options? linking Pokémon GO to your Facebook account gives you more options to log in and helps preserve your progress across devices.

The original Niantic post is quite more informative but it’s too long to read, we have prepared a condensed summary of the post which would like 🙂

• You will be able to link your Trainer profile to your Facebook and Google accounts.
• After linking your accounts, any login method will work.
• Please note: this feature will only be available to Trainers aged 13 and over.
• You can change your email address once you link a new one — source

This feature is especially handy for players who created an account using a non-permanent email address (like a school or work email address). If you’re concerned that you may lose access to your email address in the future, you can link a backup login provider to your account to ensure you’ll never lose access to your progress.
