How to Disable AR in Pokémon GO

Ever wondered how you can turn off the AR feature in Pokémon GO? Well, you’re not alone. This question pops up among players looking for a simpler, perhaps more battery-friendly way to play this immersive game.

Let’s dive into how you can switch off the augmented reality (AR) function to catch Pokémon without having them appear in the real world around you.

Simple Steps to Disable AR

Disabling AR in Pokémon GO is a piece of cake. When you encounter a Pokémon and are ready to catch it, look for the ‘AR’ toggle on the top right corner of your screen. By simply tapping on this toggle, you can switch AR off. This changes the gameplay from using your camera to a static, animated background.

Turning off AR can save your phone’s battery life and make catching Pokémon easier, especially in crowded or unsafe areas. It’s also helpful if you’re playing in a moving vehicle (as a passenger, of course) and the AR feature struggles to keep the Pokémon in your view.

Why Turn Off AR in Pokémon GO?

Aside from battery saving, disabling AR might help players who feel dizzy or nauseous with the AR on. It simplifies the game, removing the need to physically turn around to locate Pokémon. Moreover, it’s a great way to play discreetly without waving your phone in all directions.

Remember, you can always switch AR back on if you find a picturesque spot where you’d love to see a Pokémon pop up. It’s all about having the option to toggle based on your immediate situation and preference.
