Troubleshooting Dell AR Assistant

If Dell AR Assistant does not recognize your supported Dell product, be sure you are close enough for the app to lock on to the device.

Other ways to help with lock-on:

  • Hold the smartphone at a 45-degree angle to the computer, not directly over it and try to fit the computer in the white outline.
  • Press the AR Assistant button on the left side of the screen to reset it.
  • Try different angles around the computer (lower, higher, slightly left or right).
  • Change the lighting around the computer. Natural light is recommended.
  • Change the background by moving the computer to another work location.
  • Try holding the phone for 2-3 seconds in position, you may detect a delay with the camera connecting to the app.

If a closer view is needed, move the camera closer to the device. If you lose the AR lock, back up to reacquire the lock and slowly move closer.

For problems with installing or launching Dell AR Assistant, see the support options for your operating system:

If you are replacing a motherboard, be sure to disable BitLocker encryption. For more information, see Dell KB article: How to Enable or Disable BitLocker with TPM in Windows
