My 'AR' view in Pokemon Go doesn't work. Every time I switch it to on it gives me an orientation error. I found out that it could be because my phone lacks a Gyroscope.
My question is, will I be able to play Pokemon Go in AR mode?
Best Answer
No, you won't be able to play in AR mode without a gyroscope. It is absolutely required, as it's the only way to check your phone's orientation.
