Auto aggregator Jugnoo makes rides doubly fun with Pokemon Go integration

NEW DELHI: “Smack those Pokemons en-route to your destination in a Jugnoo ride.” Beating the advisory issued by Pokemon Go’s developer Niantic Labs that says "Do not drive and play Pokemon Go", Jugnoo appeases its riders by integrating the Pokemon Go into its app. The integration is corresponding to most of the governments around the world, in public interest. The additional feature is also a customer engagement endeavor by Jugnoo, to help ‘Pokemon Go’ zealots to play their favorite online game, while riding with Jungoo. Furthermore, this integration also brings to the fore, Jugnoo’s up-to-the-minute façade, pacing up with various ongoing frenzies across industry.

Commenting on the integration Samar Singla, Founder and CEO, Jugnoo said, “Pokemon Go is trending across the world and the nexus that we identified between our brand and the game is that – both have to do with travelling or be on the move. The game can only be played while on the go and doing so, while driving, could be risky. Ensued by that, we saw an opportunity in this and realized that playing it in an auto could be fun. Therefore, we decided to help our users to play Pokemon Go while riding in Jugnoo. Our latest update will show all the Pokestops and Gyms in the city, which will help users plan their Jugnoo ride while playing Pokemon Go.”

The integration is touted to be the safest and the least time consuming way to play Pokemon Go. Jugnoo users can plan their route that takes them through various PokeStops and they can smack a Pokemon or two at the Gyms around the city.

Users get a button to enable/disable Pokemons on their profile page. If enabled, the user would see PokeStops and PokeGym on the map. Furthermore, if a user has the game installed in his/her Android phone, their Pokemon mode would be enabled by default. Users can see PokeStops and PokeGyms on map and accordingly they can plan the ride to collect maximum Pokeballs during their Jugnoo ride.
