How do I get Pokémon Go to detect my phone's orientation? - Young hipster looking at smartphone screen in park

When initiating a battle it starts off in AR mode, but then warns me saying my phone's orientation is not detected. I am then forced to turn off AR mode. Has anybody experienced this? If so, what are the solutions?

Per comments, I am unsure this is a permissions issue. I have everything turned on.

How do I fix the orientation of my Pokemon go?

Fix: Pokemon Go AR not working
  • Method 1: Updating or reverting to another OS version (iOS only)
  • Method 2: Make sure you have a gyro sensor (Android only)
  • Method 3: Update to the latest Pokemon Go app.
  • Method 4: Managing Permissions and Auto-Orientation.


  • How do you use the gyroscope in Pokemon go?

    This part is actually super simple: Like pretty much every AR game, "Pokemon Go" uses your phone's camera to place an image of a Pokemon within your surroundings, and the GPS, accelerometer, and compass give the game an idea of which direction your phone is pointing toward.
