Searching for Pokéstops

FreeField has a search function for finding Pokéstops on the map by name. Clicking on “Search” in the sidebar will open a search dialog where you can enter the full or partial name of any Pokéstop on the map. As you type, the list will update to show the best matches for your query.

The results list will show up to 10 Pokéstops, sorted by their relative distance to you. Each result will show the name of the Pokéstop, along with its distance and direction from your location. Clicking on any result will pan the map to the location of that Pokéstop.

Hint

Search requires the geolocation permission and a location fix in order to show results near you. Your browser may warn you and ask for permission to perform geolocation, which must be granted for this to work properly.

If FreeField cannot determine your location, search results will be sorted in descending alphabetical order, and show Pokéstop coordinates rather than their distances and directions.
