If you need some assistance with your Harry Potter Wizards Unite potions, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve covered everything you’ll need to know about them, including how to brew potions, what Master Notes are, and more. Read on to get the lowdown on Harry Potter Wizards Unite potions.
Harry Potter Wizards Unite Potions | How to unlock and craft
As you might expect, Harry Potter Wizards Unite potions are your go-to source for giving you buffs in Niantic’s latest smartphone game. From gaining additional XP, improving your spellcasting abilities, and more, potions are a necessity in some instances.
To craft potions, you’ll need to acquire different ingredients from Greenhouses. Greenhouses, like Inns, act as Harry Potter Wizards Unite‘s version of Pokemon Go‘s PokeStops. Unlike Inns, however, Greenhouses don’t provide you with food and drink to refill your Stamina meter. Instead, these are where you find ingredients to make your own potions.
Greenhouses can be found across the map and you can interact with them like PokeStops. Once you have enough items for a certain potion, you’ll have to put them in your cauldron to brew them for a specific amount of time.
You’ll need to hit level 4 in-game before you gain access to your Potions bench too. Don’t worry if you’re less than that level and you can’t see it, as you just haven’t unlocked it. Once you do, you’ll be introduced to the Potions bench screen, including how to brew your own, what ingredients you’ll need, and recipes you’ve already collected.
To find out what ingredients you need for each currently available potion in-game, read our potions list below.

Harry Potter Wizards Unite Potions | Master Notes
If you’re tired of waiting for your Harry Potter Wizards Unite potions to brew, you can speed up the process with Master Notes. Master Notes are gestures that you can draw on your phone’s screen to brew more effectively.
Right now there are nine known Master Note gestures. We’ve listed them below but, if you want a better look at how to draw them, there’s a handy graphic over at OrangeWizard2019’s Instagram account.
Completing the Master Notes sequences for all potions listed above will reduce their brewing times by 15%, so they are well worth doing.
- Unknown Master Note — displayed as a question mark
- Clockwise Turn — create a circle in a clockwise direction. Must be drawn inside the cauldron
- Counter-clockwise Turn — create a circle in a counter-clockwise direction. Must be drawn inside the cauldron
- Horizontal Line — draw a line from left to right. Must be drawn across the cauldron
- Multiple Taps — tap many times on the potion in the cauldron
- Pinch — pinch the sides of your potion, inside the cauldron, from the left and right of your screen
- Shake your device — shake your phone up and down
- Vertical Line — Draw a line from the bottom of your screen to the top. Must be drawn across the cauldron
- Zoom — zoom in on your potion, inside the cauldron, to the top and bottom of your screen from the center
