The capacity is increased by five spaces at certain level-ups and as Leaf Ticket purchases.
** Each material type has a specific capacity, ranging from 9,999 for Friend Powder to just 30 for the various Essences. It's a good idea to check your inventory for your stock before accepting too many materials from the mailbox.

* GameBreakingBug: In the beta version, the "Leaf" character bug, which affects player avatars. This is caused by the player's name not loading properly. From a player's point of view, said visitor(s) (including the player's in-game friends) ended up turning into a placeholder, barefooted female camper wearing nothing but basic clothes (only seen if a camper is "not wearing anything" at all) and had their name changed into "Leaf". Players thought it was funny, until the impact shows: Visitors/Friends who are turned into Leafs can't be "interacted" with, as the affected avatar ended up having everything set to zero (empty campsite and Market Box) even though from the other player's end (the one whose avatar was shown as a Leaf by others) nothing wrong happened to him/her. Thankfully, a later update fixed this bug.

In contrast to the main series where you are a villager or mayor managing a village, in ''Pocket Camp'' you are in charge of a campsite. Similar to the main games. you can customize your character, decorate the campgrounds, fish, and interact with villagers. The game takes note from ''VideoGame/AnimalCrossingHappyHomeDesigner'' with such features as being able to chose your character's skin tone and placing furniture using touch controls (a feature that was also implemented into the ''Welcome amiibo'' update of ''New Leaf'').
