Using Your Nook Miles

When you want to use the miles themselves, you’re going to want to head on over to where Nook is and check out the ATM lookin’ machine he has set up.

Use this and you’re going to be able to spend your miles on things that range from useful (like a tool ring or crafting recipes) to aesthetic (like new hairstyles).

That’s all there is to it! That’s how to get (and also use) Nook Miles in Animal Crossing New Horizons.
