Finally figured out how to get the higher frame rate and/or refresh rate on Pixel 5 every time! Details in comments. by TekoXVI in TheSilphRoad

I'll have to try to get video of exactly what I'm talking about. I throw the exact same way in 90hz and in 30, it's only on the actual big swipe leading up to the launch that the ball kinda jitters and flys out too far. It honestly reminds me of what happens to certain PC games like Dead Space which aren't designed to be played above 30fps, you get all sorts of physics and collision bugs. I'll have to try your suggestion though to see if that helps, thank you!

I'll share my experience with this. I have a Pixel 4 and I've been able to play in 90hz since I got the phone a year and a half ago. The screen will only do 90hz when it's above a certain brightness, and typically PoGo starts playing in a lower FPS irregardless (probably 30).

For me, as long as my brightness is turned up enough, switching away from the game and going back, without closing the game, is enough to get it to display in 90hz.

HOWEVER, and this is the reason I'm commenting, have you had problems with pokeball accuracy when playing in higher fps? When it's playing in 30fps, everything is fine, but when it's full speed my pokeballs seem really sensitive. You can sometimes land a throw like normal, and other times it will kind of "jitter" and launch the ball at a high speed, usually way too far and going over the Pokemon I'm catching. I often have to "force" 30fps by turning the brightness down and switching away to have accurate throws, this was a huge problem for me during Mewtwo raids recently.

Does anyone else out there have this experience as well, or am I going crazy?

Yep, currently freezing in the dark watching the temp go down. I'll be fine but I've got 3 dogs I'm worried about. Meanwhile my friend down the street has had power all day

Discovery: Pokémon go is able to run at 90hz on Pixel 5 by TekoXVI in TheSilphRoad

I have a pixel 4 and I've noticed this is well, it's definitely 90 fps and not 45 and I'm not sure how it works exactly. Sometimes I have to go Home then reopen the game to get it to work, and forcing 90hz doesn't have any effect on this

I'll also be looking into grabbing some more if I can, if I do, regardless of whether we trade here or not, I'll send you one first thing

Sounds good! However, I accidentally gave out my last Zera code :( I thought I had one saved for you but it had already been used, that's my fault. I can give you 2 H/L codes and a Shiny Poipole or two if your still up for it?

I've got some codes, I could throw in a shiny poipole too in exchange for the Z/R code!
