It's such a privilege to get to know this trick even before I've ever had the chance to fill my postcard book 🙏 Amazing hack! I'm using it from today! Wondering though what could my friends see when I do this? xD Because you get an in-game notification if your friend pins your postcard. Would they still see the notification?

Hoping that at some point we will be able to skip like this in the evolution scenes. Would make those 2x evolve XP spotlight hours so much better
@MarkFonts
3 ай бұрын
probably not. the cutscene is to balance the reward with a time cost. evolution xp has become one of the least efficient ways to get xp, since a successful excellent throw gets you just as much now. not to mention raids, and friendship milestones giving much more for less effort, and are now the primary way to get xp. but yeah, if its 2x xp for evolution, why not

You can also just tap your phone's back button right as the gift animation begins to go back to the Trainer screen. No worries about timing or anything. Just works.

This skip is as old as time. UI / UX in this game is insanely tideous. Sending, receiving, evolving, trading, GO+ settings... Everything takes forever and they didn't bother to improve anything in years.

Oh yeah, I know. Just saw some people opening gifts slowly and had to try to get this to more people! Agreed everything is tedious. Every buggy skip is a treasure.

There is actually another tip that the video didn't cover. To avoid the inadvertent taps, you can simply just hold (instead of tapping) the invisible X button, wait until the gift page is close, then release, it will close the page for that friend and take you back to the friend list. This method isn't faster, but it isn't slower either. It helps to avoid closing your friend list accidentally, and it's easier for your thumb.

Yeah, you can spam taps. However I find it's quite likely to accidentally back out of the friend screen doing this (which is annoying because you generally want to immediately send a gift after opening one). So I think it's worth learning the precise method.
