The update, which is available with iOS 11 on the iPhone 6S and newer and the iPad Pro, adds a new "AR+" mode with the enhanced effects. Once enabled, the Pokémon characters will change size as you move closer or farther away from them.

(The game is also adding a new "Expert Handler" bonus, which lets you earn more XP and Stardust when you capture a Pokémon from a closer distance.)
