Does the zoom affect the amount of pokémon encountered?

Lately it seems as if I get more Pokémon encounters when I zoom in more.

Is this just a stroke of odd luck, or does the zoom level affect the detection rate somehow?



Best Answer

I know you already have an accepted answer but I'd like to give my thoughts. Most of the time I go out with my wife to catch pokémon and she uses the zoom between all in and all out and I always use all out, and if we are at the same GPS spot, we always see the same pokémon.
