So if I have an iPhone 16, can I not do the beta testing
Read FAQ
i will, thank you
It is 90 days (every update, the build lasts 90 days I've noticed. An update should at some point possibly arrive soon maybe to avoid the current build from expiring)
I wish there was a way for me to get vrchat on my iOS device bc I’m trapped in the hospital and have no way to play with my friends
Don't worry, that's still 20 days before a new update xD (so slow ;w;)
watch the said update have a frying pan icon so you can cook an egg while playing vrc
Hey guys, I need help. Can one of you help me? I download TestFlight It says I need a code.
have you been accepted into the iOS closed beta?
if you haven't, then you can't join it
I hope yuo get better
If your hospital has fast enough internet, you can play VRC through NVIDIA GeForce NOW
Granted you only get 1 hour per session before you need to queue again
hmm... contradictory 🙂
Bug with Unity, shouldn't be showing up but yeah, something something unity version VRC's on isn't functioning properly
I download test flight and zenith it still won’t let me in the VR chat beta mobile
For iOS
You have to receive an invite in the email, you can’t just download testflight and join 😛
Could I possibly get access to closed beta?
Maybe if you… request, like everyone else 👌
How Would I do that?
see #ios-info
but chances are that they aren't looking for more signups at the moment 🤷
and even if you could sign up to the closed beta, you might not get in for another 6 months, since that is the current average wait time 😐
as stated by @unkempt zinc...
i just want to play ios version already
NVIDIA GeForce Now
I heard that that doesn’t really support it though
omg you’re right
That’s SO COOL
heh
It's very finicky and laggy, requires a super fast connection, but beggars can't be choosers
But hey PCVR world access I guess
GeForce Now isn't running the game on your native hardware, it's just streaming the game from Nvidia's servers to your device
Do all games work that well for you on gforce now? Or just VRChat?
However the only alternative to not having the beta
Not a great experience but it's an experience
"Well" is being generous
VRC works just fine enough, but it depends on your internet connection
I've never had the luxury of great internet speeds, so even something like MonHun Rise was dogwater on my home network
That’s what I mean tho. Do other games have similar issues?
For you
Not really, it's all just based on internet speed
I played through the first hour of Tomb Raider just fine
Cool. Thanks for the info! I was curious if VRC was stressing out GFN uniquely
I’d assume they provision different games with different resources. So maybe they under provision it? But that’s just me thinking out loud.
To be fair I'm on the free tier, so you only get one hour of gaming per session before you need to requeue
I think you roll with RTX2080s on the free tier, not sure about the CPU or RAM, maybe 16 or 24GB
Thanks for the details!
My video just makes it look like it's running like shit because my current internet where I am isn't the greatest
It took 5 minutes to log into steam and vrc
Just don't expect microphone inputs or any great experiences, but it's the only alternative for people who don't have Beta access
It would be incredible to have a touch screen version like Fortnite with the PC version of the game.
huh...IIRC, not all be 1629 when I saw last time. (iOS be older IIRC)
just minimum app version list btw, iOS version be all time older bit than others.
Oh yes, I noticed them
just asking but how long would it take to be ACCEPTED into the IOS Closed Beta??
i wouldn't believe the bot, at this point it might as well be over 8 months or until it's released on ios
ok thanks
let's just say it will be a hot race between this and the release of GTA VI
My vrchat expires on 17 days 🧌
Guess we’re all moving to geforce now
I would not have a choice in any case even though it hurts the 5G.
Still waiting for an update, I have hope 🫡
And I realized that trying to load world Cruzeiro Brasil instantly crashes the app 🪿
You're gonna wanna reach out to the world dev for that
I know, but I’ll do that later today
I use a lot VRChat to watch movies in my quest, but it doesn’t work for the iOS (phone 13 pro - 1T) yet, someone knows when it is going work?
(I’m in holidays - no vr headset, and testing using my phone, but almost all worlds I suffer with lagging…. But it is expected because holidays are holidays, plus I’m reading about the problems, anyway about the cinema worlds….. any news???)
Audio streams don’t work with VRC4iOS yet
The only thing that displays are just the video feeds
It’ll be a super long while before the devs figure it out I’d say
I’m not sure what else other than optimization and patching they have in mind right now
Summa summarum #onlyunitythings
Thank u, I cannot wait when they do that!!!!
How do I get in the beta
Agreed
where can i find the testflight
by waiting or if you're impatient, use geforce now
That's what I did since I have a subscription.
if you are asking that, you likely haven't been invited to the closed beta, so you don't have a need for it 🤷
Proot
What a cute Toaster 🍞😋
Here's some snack from me
Apple
Hey, can anyone tell me their current iOS build on VRChat? I wanna make sure I’m up-to-date
I'm on 2025.2.1 (396)
same here, I got 11 days left before it expires
VRChat on iOS is coming to an end, on last update it literally says is that it's available on all platforms but we are still on an old version
i have a 16 pro max, do i just put in 15 pro max on the application?
Since the specs match the closest, yes. The list is just a survey so they have an equal amount of devices on the test, you're not locked to that device
11 days, we really pushing this one lol
Well, iOS is still in closed beta state. But yeah it's been a while since there have been any changes
10 days later: new build guys!
dang it! i misread that statement and went looking for the new version in testflight. stinky!
Omg that's so amazing 
Any support for the iPhone 16 perchance? (I just upgraded from 11 to 16 recently and I’ll be very sad if it doesn’t work-)
anything that would match the specs closest to the 16, so I'd do the 15 Pro
🙏
Which makes for funny things like this.
when i did the ios thing my iphone isnt on the list since i have the newest iphone the 16 pro max so i selected the 15 pro max i didnt know what to put
Yeah that’s fine
Lol
Hi
I wish there was real news to talk about here 😔
:)
Just curious, why don’t yall have an IPA we can just sideload if we have something like AltStore or SideStore set up, or put it on AltStore PAL?
Does it require special entitlements or something?
my guess is for security reasons, there's nefarious things that could probably happen if they allowed it
heard stories of people doing some SHIT with the android version ages back
I like your Novabeast avatar on right! Still look cute even in mobile version
✨
I was mainly addressing the potential actual reason why it has to be signed by Apple
I figured it's probably much more secure and safer than just pulling an osu!lazer letting the IPA be sideloaded
Actually, I don't even know if osu!lazer can still be sideloaded now, last time I checked I think the IPA was still downloadable but I digress
Wait how do I get iOS closed beta because I wanna play it to
is it this hard to read the spam bot telling you how to do it?
Oh shit mb
8 days remaining...
7 days remaining…
What for
Why we counting
For u or so other people can . Test
Other people who selected for close beta. I'm not iOS user, just join their conversation for fun lol
Well I applied for the beta like a few days ago
Few days done, few months left to go!
I got 8 days remaining 🪿🔥
I never used TestFlight before
I don't want to go back to Nvidia GE Force Now to access games on my phone.
My connection is already dying.
same here.
Only 8 days left
(Maybe a new update is in the process?)
let's hope they release the update before u run out of internet
it's because it's still 8 days remaining lol
Will they ever open signups again for IOS Closed Beta? its been several months
as bot says, 6+ for some people
im not even in the queue ive never signed up before, i used to have the prompt ages ago but its been gone, unless queue just means for it to open back up again idk
I believe they got enough amount of people in queue already so....unlikely.
Does it kick all people in the beta out so new people can come in? I don’t really know how TestFlight works lol
I still remind all of this
doubtful... as far as i understand the TestFlight app might just be taken down automatically if there are no updates on it for some amount of time 🤷
Also if you don’t use the app for long enough I think you will be auto kicked off to free up space (either that’s a TestFlight thing or just something with one of the apps that did that)
Do people have to wait for a long time just to get a TestFlight code
yup
no way around it
Why I can not play vrchat on my phone
don't know? what is your issue?
I have a iPhone 11 Pro but doesn’t work
👆 those iPhones or newer 👆
yours is too old 🤷
also, since VRChat for iOS is only in a limited closed beta right now, you are unlikely to get accepted into the closed beta 😅
so, get a new phone at some point in the future, and by the time you do, maybe the iOS version of VRChat will have released 🙂
your only option is geforce now
Really?
this doesn't prove much other than you didn't fill out the form correctly, or that you ignored the list of required devices you were shown
I’m sorry, but my English is not very good, so I cannot read so good
what's to see? it always been there?
It is literally a design decision made way before the actual beta even started. Yes, older devices could use first version of beta but it was quickly patched due bug reports being made and most of the reason was that device was not supported. Only the devices mentioned on the offical device listing or newer are officially supported in beta and probably as well when the actual game gets released to the public. No, there will be no public beta as it will be against Apple ToS
it's easy to understand how the Android and iOS apps work: check if your device have 6GB of ram, you got that? then you can download the app (Android) or wait (iOS)
when it is ready
Where would they contact me if I got accepted?
You'll get a message to your email associated to your VRChat account's inbox from an Apple.com domain that you've been invited to the playtest
and it likely won't arrive in the next 6 months 🤷
Or 10 atp
It's been 7 months since I last heard of an invite wave
ExpIrEs iN 5 DAyS
We r cooked 🫡
creepypasta ahh screenshot
iOS seems to be still struggling with VRChat.
Since I have recently sold my iPhone, I want to know how the Closed Beta is currently going.
not gonne lie, for a sec i was worried that they would end the ios testflight program in the announcement xD
Whatttt
I don't want it to happen if only the developers can reassure the community about what is happening behind the scenes and its progress.
For me, I would conclude that if the avatars and the iOS world were removed from the game.
Well we have only 4 days left to see what will happen
chill... new build is coming... hopefully
🥹
Imagine how disappointed we’re all gonna be when we get an update with only
- Refreshed expiration date
I bet apple wouldn't like that
Let's hope..
if you got the ios beta and its abt to run out do we sign up for another one?
Nope
We’re all waiting to see what happens
I just got an inv
damn alr
I hope ios version will do well. Both mobile versions have perfected each other. ios with making battery last longer, and android including very poor avatars. And if an issue arose with one, it affected the other, but got resolved for both.
you haven't read anything @unkempt zinc has been saying?
1 thing I learned here is that reading is a skill only the bravest mastered
i have an iphone 16e, can i still sign up for the beta?
If it’s higher than what’s on the list you’re good, just pick the highest
Yes
Nothing really new honestly
It runs
Thats just about it 
(Personal opinion)
Can finally hope....out of closed beta, and become live release at last.....
I think keep a eye on tonight's stream on next few hours possibly.
Oki fingers crossed
👀
Sorry, there won't be anything about this in the stream! But I can say that we need those TOS updates if we want to get through Apple app review 🙂
Called it
There will be a new beta build in a few days unless something goes terribly wrong
nice word
"Few days" has to be within 3
Cutting it it close tho. Well, more bugs to find heheheh
😅
Is it like major release?
Aside from getting us up to date with 2025.3.1, there are a lot of bug fixes, some design tweaks, and some polish things
Can't wait to see the update 
Too tired to do a polish joke heheh
Inb4 the extreme wave of “WhY iT nO WorKY oN My iPhoNe 3GS?!1!1!!!” on the first day of the app store
They can limit devices on app store iirc. Not in testflight
Nah I know that for sure
Genshin had a similar debacle (i was one of the complainers with an iPhone 8 at the time) where the minimum device was at least an 8 Plus, but still could be downloaded on like an iPhone 7
I would suspect given the demographic of testing, the minimum for VRC is likely gonna be like an iPhone 12 Pro Max/Any iPad from 2022 onwards
Ios soon me happy to hear, love the beta program!
I wonder if the video players will get their volume back.
I must’ve missed that part lol, tbh. I’ve been sleeping a lot more and been drowsey, I can wait 6 months for a dead vr game lol
then you can get an Android phone, or use GeForceNow 🤷
That's why they call it GeForce NOW
For the impatients who want access to VRC NOW
I think it just has to do with the audio engine or something
I know VRC uses some custom audio thing and iOS also uses some custom audio thing

Three more days left 👀
I wonder, imagine the next beta update arrives with one day left
I’ll just wait lol
I’m not even a big fan of vrchat I thought it was just that everyone could’ve gotten it lol
But I joined this and read everything
i suspect 3 months
Oh cool
unfinished? perhaps, out of closed beta? very sure
Doubt it. Very hard
We will see
honestly the next update catching things up means I can boot into my phone to check the calendar and that's worth it lol
oh poop the calendar is on the website 🤦
mines 21 hours
Meanwhile everyone is going panic mode, I just chill and trust the process and devs
I'm not panicking tho, i clearly heard the dev stream and soups statement
What did they saaaay on stream 👀
What does that mean?
That they added tos for iPhoneOS and iPadOS VRChat, and when that happens it means that it's a good sign that things are going well. (And since a beta testflight takes 90 days i did the math that if everything goes well, i expect Q4 2025 release date)
So if someone wants to bookmark my message for 90 days on the day the next beta is out to scold me I'm wrong go ahead
Beta has been going for a year now. 90 days is set by apple to test the app. Devs have always psuhed new version to reset 90 day window
10 hours until apple auto deletes us 🙁
Again bookmark me for 90 days when the next beta is out.
I'm hyped for the next beta i dunno why lol
i am assuming this one will be big
There is no point of making a bookmark out of speculation. As stated before, beta has been already gone over a year and builds are valid 90 days as per Apple own guidelines. Stop asking and spitting out something that is untrue. VRC team will announce themself when the iOS is coming out from beta. And as stated by dev, this build only bring us up to latest unity version plus some bug fixes. As there has been no markings on Canny on what bug fixes to expect, they might be some internal fixes.
I wonder in the future they reboot the vrchat mobile widget for ios when it's released lol
Oh oh oh a live activity of the cat
It took close to two years for the android version to be done with beta, so guesstimate should be sooner for ios version.
just please stop. first both lemon and i both are aware of when the beta came out, we have been a part of it the whole time. two, lemon is on the right track, as testflight does not impose tos changes, only the appstore does — only the appstore has a review process that requires the submission of the tos.
next, this next release does NOT bring us to the latest version of unity. vrchat is still on the march release from 2022, not the 2025 release. that requires some major effort across all the platforms. this release brings us to the latest vrchat platform sdk.
last, please for the love of god, stop calling us (professional developers) “the devs”. it is insulting and every-time i hear someone call any developer that i want to reach through the screen and slap them. the term is derogatory and on par with calling a chef — “the burger flippers”. i get it doesn’t mean that to you, but it means that to us. there is a big backstory to the term and i dont need to get into it here.
i welcome the things lemon says even if speculative (neither of us work for vrchat, please do not confuse the statement). these things are coming from experience and it is literally our job to logistically see things before they occur.
no all that said, assuming video is fixed and the alerts are terminating somewhere. also assuming that apple actually opens and logs in to the app on submission (80% chance they only automate a launch). it could be longer. these i predict from experience as being the contentions:
-
any option to toggle visibility of flagged items must be locked in game (off state for new accounts) and only togglable from the website (vrchat is aware of this, i had a conversation about it last year)
-
possible hold up on getting apples approval for open url support to allow unsafe urls (which depends on the attitude of the reviewer) AND they can only be via https. (it will get approval, but may require the escalation process)
-
no mention of the word beta anywhere. i have had apps denied for us missing it on a single screen. the auto launcher they us (which by the way, is exclusively the ipad pro, they never test with phones), looks at all text in the package file.
-
last piece is always apple and the enforcement of purchases via the appstore. they always seem to find some obscure rule to get around the courts.
wait, we have a widget? why have i never seen this
the android app have a widget, testflight does not support widgets so that's why i ask to bring that android widget over when the time is right xD also about your text i'm a little confused, isn't soup the only VRChat iOS app developer? thought we where just testers and beta users?
yes soup is vrchat developer. i was talking about being developers on the platform or even off the platform. i did not intend to make it come off as we work for vrchat. i can edit it to point that out. for me, i don’t see myself as a beta tester though. i’m here for porting code to the ios side. for me it’s work lol, i’m paid to be here.
i was trying to illustrate that i repect the things you see from your previous experiences as a colleague — whether that cones from the engineering, modeling, rigging, painting, qa, or pm side.
found it and clarrified
oh that's cool! just wanted to state i don't make apps. my workflow is video and photo stuff. i just been a big fan of beta testing, i was on apple's beta program (payed back then ;w;) to test the WWDC os builds (now on the os26 beta 6 builds) so i shared that same passion on this beta and the previous android app's to help improve these app's c: i respect your long comment!
oh! i could have swore when we hung out in one of my worlds last year that you were a developer!!! i’ve thought that for a year now lol. video/music still had my respect though as i am entertainment industry lol (not the photo thing though — just kidding)
nah the closest i done "developing" wise was making my old vrchat world xDD sorry for the confusion! might request another update on the big comment to prevent confusion
hmm. that reframes the whole paragraph. damn it! stop making me change the button colors, it breaks the app
my mood in this channel the last 24 hours: 🧐 😡 🤔 🤣
k i edited again, removing developer, and framing it from producer, which both our jobs are converged at. neither of us can do our jobs without logistical vision
words lol
that looks like it could have gone either way lmao
that's the plan lol, now back to ios topic
performance seems to be good, still finds worlds with shader issues but that's expected. i have been really enjoying this app so soup good job so far! just hope and fingers crossed this new beta will atleast make the launcher look like the android version, it's really outdated even by 3 months ago standards.
btw… i am super excited. my big screen beyond ships on the 28th. it will make it so much more comfortable to work all day while in vrchat (i hope)
the 1 or 2 or 2e? (or vrchat edition? xD)
vrchat edition (2e burple)
awesome! have fun!!
agree with you! i would like to see the android app shell as well. i completely understand the video issue and wont stress them on it. but for me the two major items are:
-
being able to actually read the group alerts
-
seeing where my friends are at without needing to log in
-
would love to see some kind of pinch to zoom cause damn the menu is hard to read on the phone
oops that is three. well two and one nice to have qol thing
yes the notifications piss me off, either give the bell tab or don't ping us at all, hard to check on stuff when it disappears if i open the notification lol
yes! and dont alert muted groups!
Bye bye ios testflight in 3 hours
then what other testers will get a turn?
Idk
2 hours till tears
wait so do current testers just lose the app for a while lmao
apple countdown of doom..
let's wait and see people
i'm using the iOS app regulary for testing my scripts for syncing data between players (i don't have a windows machine) - not good for me if the app no longer works...
i think so, but i'm not sure. i've never had an app that i've worked on that expired like this. i've always gone straight to appstore submission, or killed the testflight and created an appstore submission from scratch. this one is new to me here. from the app's perspective, the code signing will expire, so in 1 hour the app will not longer run for anyone unless an update comes down. but i have no idea if the beta list is maintained or destroyed on apple's end. i do think it is maintained though, or i hope it is lol
that is an interesting use case
Oh I thought the whole thing just gets deleted, just seems the app will be unusable till the next build
no it stays behind on your phone/tablet. it just won't launch. you will see a dialog that says it expired
I was under the assumption that Apple goes full walled garden and will entirely wipe your whole testflight if you don't have a new build at least every 3 months
yay soup is here
You'll be seeing a new release on TestFlight - it's exactly the same build you had, but it doesn't disappear in two hours
Understandable. Needs to be polished and such
omg i've done that one before lol
the old classic haha
We god old 2025.2.1 back yay xD
we rooting for ya. i'm sure the panic mode hit and then we don't help it with our "the sky is falling" lol
secretly i was dm'ing lemon and saying "what if they did an appstore promotion and what we are really waiting for is apples approval" lol
yay testflight updated
we got saved last minute
so, about that
Its not same version. Same as before, just to reset the clock
I'm confused how this doesn't go against TestFlight guidelines
no, you are only required to bump the build number
Thought Apple would be way more restrictive on something like this
apple really doesn't look at anything with testflight. they make it look like they do, but they don't check anything
We got to have strasz make a announcement this is huge! Lol
hell like i've posted so many times before, i've been writing ios apps since 2009, and apple has only ever logged into one of them ONCE. and it was on an app update. they always run the automated launcher, our logs show that, but it's a lottery on wether an employee actually uses the app. also they only ever test on ipads
i really like the enhansements they made to the version number. it looks really good
Hope it's worth the wait ^^
is this just hte same build as before 🙏
W
Yes - we changed the number and reuploaded. Need a bit more time for the planned update and the build you had expires in an hour, so this is just to make sure you don't lose access!
Appreciate everyone's patience - we're working hard behind the scenes!
question when will new people get to test if u dont mind me asking
We're out of room at the moment, but we periodically remove testers that don't use the app and add new ones in waves
Are you able to discuss the amount of testers there are in total
TestFlight allows 10k testers at most
By out of room do you mean an internal number y’all decided on or the 10k limit testflight imposes
but the question is that how much you guys were allowed
A lot of folks here speculate you don’t have 10k for some reason lol
some people think there's some reason only 3 digits, I highly doubt that
Yeah, doesn’t make sense to me to limit it either
We have many more applicants than that, but 10k slots. Apple doesn't give more slots if you ask, which is a rumor I've heard
they limit it because apple doesn't want people to use it as a deployment option to avoid the appstore. like the way facebook did with adhoc deployments a few years back
Nono I meant it wouldn’t make sense for vrc to limit it further than that 😅
Correct me if I am wrong, this was asked before and I think then it was told that its classified internal number?
As someone who’s glued to this channel I don’t recall seeing that 👀
I'd really prefer if there were no limit
Imagine the slop tickets….
You're dealing with Apple :)
hey soup, is there a reason we can't have a dev channel here like android has? so that we can discuss world building and avatar stuff without it being lost in the general beta channel
I'll bring it up with the team!
it could help with promoting world porting, if we attempt to even discuss it down in the normal dev channels, they send us back here
there is litterally no appropriate place for us to have discussions
Created!
thank you strasz and soup!
we should celebrate it with Strasz Soup! 🍲
i only have a recipe for availi though
Legends till this day still waiting for iOS release
yo
- any option to toggle visibility of flagged items must be locked in game (off state for new accounts) and only togglable from the website (vrchat is aware of this, i had a conversation about it last year)
that wouldn't really work for platform accounts, so that must be a headache to solve... but i guess they can just say you can't change that until you upgrade to a full VRChat account 😅
Kinda crazy that GTA VI will release before VRC on iOS
"We got VRChat iOS before GTA 6" ahh moment 
i legit been waiting for ios vrchat before it was summer
They are waiting for the open release
Good news vrchat ios will release before the release of half life 3 and half life alyx 2. epic!
We might do some betting on this
Is it possible to join the beta still?
Very possible, a few days ago someone joined the beta crew
Howww
Read the bot?
I’m saying where do I sign up at
The vrc website i think
There’s nothing abt a beta there
Anyone having issues with the VRC app? I’m tryna login but keeps saying I’m missing credentials. I literally put them in— so it’s not missing.
I already sent a screenshot and gave feedback via TestFlight
But if anyone knows a temporary fix, that’ll be amazing
just curious to ask....is your clock showing correct time?
Yessir
Have you accepted latest ToS?
any idea where it would do that? would it not be before login if it was required? 😕
mainly asking because that has been a theory for a while that this might be a cause of the similar issue hitting people on other platforms lately 🤔
on pc yes, not sure if i need to do it on mobile as well. if so, idk how
@untold cape hacked account
small question i applied for the beta a while ago i just wanted to know if ppl are still being accepted 😅 nvm [i didn’t read the bot first sorry for asking :( ]
bot works nice
i didn’t read the bot before sending that sorry :<
Small question when you get the email, where does it get sent? Does it get sent to your Gmail or do you have to log into your email on the mail app on iOS?
The iOS mail app is just a Email client. You'll get an email from an Apple.com domain to your Email you have associated to your VRChat account saying you've been invited to the Testflight
Its in the FAQ
ok, thank you so much
sorry I didn’t check that fully😔
So when exactly will vr chat be launched on iOS, I believe I’m a bit late on the queue, Mainly interested in it just to try my hand at optimizing a few avitars and my worlds for it and test it out.
I also have an iPhone 16 didn’t see that in the supported devices
Don’t worry about that, I use an iPhone 16 pro max and it’s supported
Same I just selected 15 pro max
I thought it important to mention that the account creation process is broken on iOS, I’ll make a canny later.
Basically, it wants a password despite not asking for one.
Now I wait until im accepted. 
I’ve been waitin 28 years for that
Cant repro. Mine does account with password
Literally just tested account creation flow, works fine
with a login thru a new google acc?
I used icloud+ to hide email but yes (running out of emails lol)
Also that does not look like iOS
iOS have Beta Build (iOS) blasted on right corner
All auth flows happen BEFORE you can even fireup the game (load world etc.)
that is ios
Just loaded the app again, logged in & the screen is different (broken) but works.
GTA 7 will come before vr chat iOS
ok
when it is done/ready
iPhone 16 didn't exist when that form was created, so just select the closet aproximate device
How y’all getting iOS beta closed
Fr I’ve been waiting ages now
You essentially had to sign up early which was more than a year ago now. Apple limits TestFlights to only 10,000 to prevent developers using it as an App Store
what not waiting for a release does to a mf
How does it take so long to put it on to the App Store? I swear it was so easy with what head
I heard
Apple does not allow applications to be published on the app store when they're in a "Beta" state, and direct developers to use TestFlight which is limited to 10,000 accounts
because Apple are snubs... that is kinda the whole selling point, to have curated and only quality apps... but a huge headache for anyone that wants to develop for their platform 🤷
Is this a new thing where VRC installed on iOS shows the nativemobile/active on mobile flair on your profile?
Hi, is anyone else on iOS Beta (2025.2.1 build 482) having issues where the app crashes immediately when trying to load the default Home world? I’ve reinstalled and logged in multiple times but it still happens. Just want to check if it’s only me or a common issue.
same problem
What device
I’ve tested on multiple devices — iPhone 15 Pro, iPhone 15 Pro Max, iPhone 14 Pro Max, iPad Pro 4th gen, and iPad Pro 6th gen. Same result on all of them: infinite loading when trying to join Home, then it crashes.
It's a bit like his situation
I've been like this since last night
yes bro
its actually pmo cause it wont let me in no world
thank god it aint just me
I think the problem comes from the fact that the game version is too old
It might be that — on iOS Beta (2025.2.1 build 482) I keep getting this “Anti-cheat system error” message, then it disconnects and crashes. Maybe the version is too low, that’s why it keeps happening.
Sad, same here… I thought I got banned at first too.
same i made a avi and it was nsfw like but its private so i thought it was that
No matter what home world, its broken
I already got it last week but I thought it was when I was flying and the connection was bad
No its not that. Last time when there was a major API update, they had to do rollback due iOS testers got blocked. So thats why the API update was delayed some more before iOS update was also released. If it would be API, the game would straight up say "A new version of the app is available, please update to continue." As seen here: https://feedback.vrchat.com/ios-mobile-beta/p/ios-is-unplayable-as-of-writing-111224-at-14-54-est
ou yeahh... there is like a brief moment of something regarding anti-cheat. Lets see
VRChat on other platforms vs on iOS
huhh....several report of ios build not works after recent update as it seems?
Minimum build number at the moment for iOS is 1629 btw.
👋 about that...

Aaaaaaa. My notifications ;-;
I was using them to see when someone invites me since I am not always on PC ;-;
honestly it was all good till yk
w thanks
lemme test
Giant VRC+ subscription button at the top is an… interesting design choice for an app not fully released.
works
fast
Removing google login is also another choice.
Can play now
Letting us purchase credits in a place we can’t use them is also…. an interesting decision.
i was so happy when i got the email with the new update 😄 and yes it looks much better but i still have feedback about still not showing age verification in the launcher app thingy, so close!
why would you log in google on iphone app???
Availability
Homescreen/Friends Tab/Friend Profile
Two click login vs typing full email, password & Authenticator code
sure do wonder which is better
fair but i still don't see the point on log in google when you can so easily make a vrc account on any platform
I love consistency
dude... you don't use autofill?
Let's not fight please - I use google auth as well. It's coming back
i just press the autofill -> get my 2fa and i log in
yay
I think it’s grabbing their avatar icon in the first one?
i'm not fighting xD
❤️
great job btw! when will you add the age verification "ui" in the launcher?
brb checking
What is the minimum iOS version planned for release?
How do you even get vrchat on iOS?!
A Time Machine, because it’s gonna take them forever to finally finish it lol
There was a sign up
17.4 for now

we asked Tim Apple nicely
iOS/iPadOS 26 dev beta is going well, it’s awesome so far
not good?..
I’m on iOS 16.5
That's crazy
Yay I’m on 18.4 so slide me vrchat frfr 
you should update then ^w^
My jailbreak and trollstore…
I just want it on phone because my headset charger is broken so I'm using a different charger
I’m on iOS 26.0
Real
same
hmmm fun or mirrors? what to pick
It’s really nice I like it
Same! Loving it so far on iPhone and iPad
Unfortunately we won't be supporting iOS 19 through 25
same, running iPhoneOS 26 beta, zero issues!
I had a feeling 😂
bruh
Ain’t no way
I hope that it eventually does work on lower iOS versions
Why keep iOS 16?
My jailbreak
Kinda
@tidal salmon why was notification support removed? Sure, they led to shadow realm but they worked fine
ios 17 was almost 10 years ago
Eww, I forgot that was even a thing. Do people still do that?

2023 isn’t ten years
shhhh
Learn to math, bro. In iPhone years, it’s 10 years ago
It’s dying.
someone got the joke XD
I think better update pin message with iOS version requirement.
(as some version excluded, and now has which works or not)
#ios-discussion message
#ios-discussion message
I mean it does go up in like 16.0-16.9
Just downloaded beta 8 on my phone
This morning
I don’t think iOS has ever hit 1x.9
I thought 18 did
Nope 18.6 is latest
Ah
I’m on iPadOS 26.8 beta, we’ll see if there’s one more
That’s beta 8 not .8
i checked, 1x.8 is the highest interesting
It feels like iOS 18 is old having 26 since its release
And I think technically, they released beta six twice
How dare you
iOS 15.8.4
All that matters is if VRC has keyboard and mouse support for iPad. I keep mine hooked up to a docking station with an external monitor, so it’s a must.
I have a MacBook but it’s broken
Although that would depend on whether or not vrchat has iOS sideload detection
I applied like 7 months ago sadly still ain’t in 🥀 so who wanna build that Time Machine
Well even if I got accepted I couldn’t do anything
I already built it, but when I went back in time, it created a paradox where I didn’t build it and go back in time.
patience, i sense it's near the end of testflight
Bruh 😔
poof lol
I don’t think so tbh. I know they’ve added the fake transactions but I still think there is gunna be half a year to wait
Apple in app purchases no longer required
Why 😟
External purchasing
I still do it through Apple, though, I don’t trust all these fly-by-night companies like epic games
😂
“fly-by-night” “epic games” 
don't tell apple but i always pay in the website to lower my monthly bills cause apple's fee's are big and i'm greedy
Yeah, but I don’t pay the fee. I like that Apple takes a cut so that they can continue innovating. Google’s got like an 80% market share Monopoly worldwide with android. It’s nice to see someone else actually get a decent foothold.
for now, i fear android's era is ending soon
Well because Apple lost the lawsuit with external purchases I’m sure that vrc+ will be available outside of apple
I wouldn't go so far with saying "innovating"
That would be awesome. One if you were company that the American Department of defense founded and controls, monopolizing and industry would probably be for the best.
Hell that may be why the TestFlight is nearing the end
One fewer*
VRChat just seems they don't want to deal with purchase processing at all
they just leave it to steam/meta currently
well we atleast 100% have up to 3 months of testflight to go, let's have this conversation by then xD
One fewer company that the American Department of defense founded and controls having a monopoly in an industry.
I used voice text last time mb
God no. Trust me iOS sideloading is still a much bigger pain than anything new android is rolling out
That’s one of the reasons I haven’t updated
don't know, it seems to be exactly the same thing apple did
Why? Is it just to get paid games or apps for free? I can’t see a benefit.
Which iOS 26 got rid of jit
you can't stay on iOS 16 forever sadly
I disabled apple update servers on my phone
I couldn’t update if I wanted to
that's... a way
Also if I do update I could never go back as iOS 16 has not been signed in a while
We're very much in the polishing stage. My fingers are crossed that it won't be that long, but it's development! On a separate platform! Things sometimes happen and I don't want to get y'all's hope up too much.
I have waited longer
Notification support has been temporarily disabled. We're working on full support!
it was working fine for me :(
it's alright, i have patience as i also want this app to work well 😄 you guys are doing a great job supporting platforms outside Windows, thank you again for the hard work as the whole VRC team ^w^
I guess the new app icon is for better readability on smaller screens, but it still looks a little off
agree, petition to chance the icon to VRCat
I am excited to see it.
support the app icon change API for VRC+ users
(I can still install higher iOS requirement apps)
Don’t listen to this person. Work longer hours and get it done as quickly as possible. Polish is equal to speed in importance. 😂
They won’t boot however
Omw to become John VRChat, the richest player of VRChat
But hey they look nice on my homescreen
I’ve met celebrities and people that work in the government in VR chat before
microsoft ceo is that you?
Some pretty wealthy people are highly invested
I met ostinyo
The joke is a bird
I wonder how iOS will preform with no jit
They're people who work for lockheed martin who play the game as well, it's to be expected at this point
It's already working well without JIT wym
Yeah, back in the day running into someone on the Google board of executives, or working for the US state Department, was far more common
And I also wonder how vrchat would preform with jit
VRC when they finally release the app to the app store: apple told us to make a liquid glass redesign so back to testflight!
For what reason tho
Everything is based in Unity
Someone made a liquid glass concept for VRC and it actually WENT
Unity
change the app icon to a selfie of a developer 
Yes good
Tupper feet
sameee i know what you mean! imagine
share?
I know what the iOS 17.4 requirement is for
also whats wrong with liquid glass yall? i actually really like it
It's somewhere here, was posted within the last 2 months
i have idea.. the app icon is a mirror!
GPU fires go brrrrr
I asked Grok if it could make a VRC cross platform for iOS with zero bugs, and it said yes, it could do it in three months.
inb4 liquid glass vrcat
So….
apple's too cool for that
Dang I should have done that
Dawg whatever crack Haios is on I want
Same
The battery concerns for liquid glass are confusing, the effect isn't running 24/7 and Apple's mobile GPUs are way overkill what should be in mobile devices anyway but they're there
i love the new os26 ui, i keep scrolling to look at it xD
im gonna need the VRC iOS app icon to be a selfie of you, thanks 
High on life, bro. Well, life and hand tracking only VRC
The system transitions were already power hungry is the problem
Adding RTX reflections at 120hz would just spell house fire
LMAOOO
they're not ray-traced
surprisingly iOS 26 has performed relatively the same as iOS 18, though Low Power Mode is a bit more laggy
that
that wasnt the point
iOS 26 does look nice
Really?
I just refuse to update just because no JIT 
i never use Mobile to game anyways, that's where I'd get a steamdeck
Me when gross michel becomer caverndish
Same for iPadOS 26. The menu bar at the top, the better cursor, better external monitor support, the whole thing is amazing.
i only have the iOS Closed Beta to look for bugs and issues, I don't plan on actually playing on iOS casually after the closed beta lmao
Reject new features
Apple should make an update to fix the underlying issues already
Random question, Does VRPill still work for VRC?
admittedly, Apple has been very rushy, they need to take a step back
They said they were gonna fix shit in 18
Before that, 17
Before that, 16
Do you guys have the same issue with screenshots on iOS not showing their preview half the time
i mostly use the android version on my pixel tablet for small checks, but mostly use the launcher as it's super handy, my iphone is strong so i try to push it's limit a bit more
The video player still has no sound.
i was originally gonna get an Android as a secondary home phone
... until Google gave everyone the middle finger and decided "nuh uh, we dont like sideloading apks"
Not me, Not ever
I dont care if iOS and iPadOS looks cool with RTX and frutiger aero I want my stabilisy back
so now there's like literally no point in getting an Android unless you want a budget phone
you could buy a linux phone
I'm placing bets its just the audio engine vrc has not fully working with audio streams from video playets
Those exist?? I may have to look into it lmao
It’s pretty stable for me. It’s also in developer beta rn
It's happened to me on my iPhone 15 (base) and 16 Pro (I know it's a fairly dumb upgrade, but I wanted 120hz), both were fresh setups
Insert nerd emoji of "but ios and android are technically linux"
they do ^w^ but you better do good research
No JIT 
Don't @ me
No JIT no get
iOS is t technically Linux, also. It’s called “Darwin”
Perfect
perhaps...
iOS and android are technically derivatives of Unix, a form of Linux, no?
Android and iOS are basically distant cousins to Linux lmao
People who like Linux think Linux is in everything, but iOS isn’t Linux
Linux is based on Unix iirc
No, it’s not Linux
look nice!
It has some UNIX foundations, or at least they look similar, but it’s not Linux at all
Yeah I'm only getting into Linux recently because it helped jailbreak my ipod touch 2G lol
I might dualboot it if i get a second SSD
it's related, not the same. kinda like distant cousins, especially macOS and Linux
I guess if a tree and a painting of green candy are “cousins” but not really
The only way they’re related is that on the surface they somewhat looked similar in certain situations
the end game for me is having this app on my mac xD
i know macOS and Linux are the most "similar", especially since macOS literally shares commands
macOS and Linux are more similar than iOS for sure
And they do share a lot of commands, sudo and whatnot
Root cmds too
They're both based on Unix
yeah, and the way they format directories (/directory1/directory2)
When does the beta end
macOS is still based in Darwin, which I think takes queues from UNIX to say it literally
Yeah, and the directories too
Your guess is best as anyone else's
wasnt Linux made because the dude hated Darwin or something?
between now and the release of GTA7
i remember hearing something about someone not liking something Unix-related
I think Linux was invented by a guy named Linus, and it was pre-Darwin
ohhh okay
I used to work for Apple in between tiered support that was public facing, and the iCloud engineering team doing research
I’m not an expert in everything
So like capturing devices that had anomalous behavior from public facing support, and helping iCloud engineering resolved things and doing research
i will say, Linux is really the only source of freedom we have nowadays in terms of the internet
Hope AirPods Pro 3 get announced at the Sept 9th event, that's really what I'm looking forward to anyway
even Android is losing it's sideloading
they will, seems like it's time for them, i'm the weirdo but i'm still waiting for airtags 2 xD
Linux is good, but I still prefer macOS. It’s a bigger platform with way more support, industry leading apps for editing, an animation, and they’ll fight the US government all the way up to the Supreme Court to protect privacy when they can.
the rumors seem kinda lacking sadly
like just a heartbeat sensor is the main "leak"
i love macOS but i can't say that, in general 1 the pc users don't allow me to love my device, so i keep my love for it in secret. linux is awesome to, wish more windows users would jump ship and more support goes to the distro's
I do really wish I could install macOS on my desktop, that's the only thing holding me from Mac
if i could install macOS on my desktop I very gladly would with a smile on my face
Have you tried the M series framework? Honestly, less energy requirement, more power output, it’s like Apple can do magic.
I mean what would even the lowest entry to MacOS be
Yeah, that’s fair. Even the physical drive has to be formatted differently to do it though.
what do you mean?
i might get a Mac device eventually, I'm just not able to get one at the moment
Six or $700 I think
$600 for a mac mini?
m4 mac mini is dope
Yeah, a Mac mini
if I did get a mac, I'd either get a Mac Mini Desktop or just a plain old Macbook
yeah amazon has good deals for macbooks
I love and hate iOS
there is a new macbook coming out this year, one that runs on a A series chip
It’s not macOS, but my M4 iPad Pro can render 6K black magic cinematic camera footage orders of magnitude faster than my $3000 gaming PC can do
And it’s like 20 sheets of paper, thick, and probably weighs the same
yeahhh.. Apple makes really nice hardware, it's just a bit held back by it being so closed off
le walled garden
I think that was the conventional argument back in the day, but most things are made not only for Apple, but for their unique CPU architecture now as well
Like most things will run native and don’t even need emulation or translation
their CPUs are like insanely good for laptops it's crazy
Yeah, it honestly is. I took my M4 iPad Pro to the Philippines on a missions trip recently, and I could render 4K Apple Pro Rez videos for our social media engagement that were insane.
if only developers make games for them, i would really want that to happen, not just the typical 10 games a june batch
The destiny mobile game just came out for iPad and iPhone today
Apple’s been focusing on gaming quite a bit recently
I love how the iOS 26 "Games" app is basically the game center app from back then
now with an app store baked in it
sorry i meant for the mac xD
So true, glad someone remembers that
Oh yeah, I gotcha. Yeah very true, I wish AAA games would make their way to macOS on launch like everything else.
their HDR is also really nice too, I wish I could say the same for my current PC
i actually used that app so much back then
Yeah, for sure
like you can dislike apple all you want but the M series chips are game changers
I'm not getting a windows laptop solely cause of that ngl
I miss the Game Center application
Apple switching from 32bits to 64bits killed so many golden age mobile games
Android's following suit which is concerning
Which is why I installed linux to jailbreak my ipod 2G and iPad 4
yeah google making android act like ios is concerning, isn't this like a huge reason people pick android over iphones?
Android still will be way easier
It will be like sideloading on meta quest headsets presumably
With extra hoops granted
I was LITERALLY about to switch to Android as my next phone too
i think it's more not how to do it but more what you get now, yes i think it will be easier then iOS but the appls you can install will be much smaller then today
If you throw away the petty bias and stupid arguments
Apple was for streamlined usage and productivity
Android was for freedom and customizability
Explain this 🧌
Damn my arguments have all been nullified by Goku's Dragon Ballz...😔
this really happened, I was the traffic light
Steve J*bs got NOTHING
It really is
The only benefit from this is that kids can no longer complain about which OS is better because both got enshittified 
Ping me
??
People having phone wars is the most pointless thing ever
Any random phrase will do
My buddy used to bully me for enjoying the iPhone I enjoyed
Now he's unable to talk shit 
I'm kinda bothered that they disabled notifs on iOS, they were working just fine
oh wow, both open instagram, texts, and can call people
We're getting closer...
It was nice to know what events were happening right from the iPad
I have something to show
Ok?
Dude's turned into beetlejuice. @wanton ridge
Alternatively you can just spam all caps and let dynonping you
Is the iOS version of VRChat out in the app store?
Since these channels are still called "closed-beta", and there's no announcement in #announcements about the full release. No
No but there are talks about it presumably
Don’t get your hopes up
Oh okay!
it's only for a little while, and when it returns i hope they work now xD
Being goofy is all I have. Be serious for once.
how fast has everyone gotten into the ios betas? i just read that i needed to allow emails from apple and i didnt have access to my email so i had to add another one and now im worried that i lost the email
i did the survey at like 2:30 pm
and now its 4:44
4:55 damn
i didnt mean to say 4:44
i was part of wave 2, that was like 2-3 months from wave 1. but these days the waitlist is very long so might just wait for the full release
yeah i was able to do the survey but like i said im just worried that the email got lost because i didnt have apple emails active and i dont have access to the email that my apple account was signed up with. i had just added my main email about 10 minutes ago so hopefully i will get the email soon
i selected iphone 15 pro max even though i have a 16 plus and i selected that i am a content creator. im just praying that i am still able to get in
no email no game
yeah i know. just waiting to see if i got the email or not
I hated clicking notifications and not going anywhere cuz they’re not actually supported 😭
Kinda happy they’re turned off now
Would like to specify what notifs. Invites do worl
Wording is everything 😉
Because now it says notifications are disabled. Makes you think every notif is gone
That actually makes a lot more sense thinking about it now
I primarily relied on VRCX to tell me what's new and up, but I've noticed that they added the mobile flair for iOS, so I'm guessing this implies seamless integration with sending you straight into the world through an invite soon since when I'm not even at my desktop, it shows my iPad is connected to VRC which thus means I'm "Active on Mobile"
So given the change in icon I’m guessing the full release is somewhat nearby
But that makes me wonder, are we getting selfie expression on iOS like Android and desktop have?
I mean…why wouldn’t we?
Based on previous records, I understand that no one has received new VRChat testers since last August. Can new testers be issued? Many of my friends are multi-device users who want to test the iOS adaptation world but can't.🥹
not exactly sure what they mean by turned off. i am still getting them. i like getting them too, i just wish i could click on them
played gigas on the phone for the first time and that was actually fun for mobile.
audience anarchy is useless for the phone, the entire prompt system is unusable because its shader based and hasnt been retarted to ios
still wishing we could pinch to zoom to read things, especially the expanded menu.
wishing there was a toggle on world that filtered out pc only worlds to make testing easier. making out the platform icons is very hard even on the max pro. its just too small in grid view
I'm in team i love they disabled them until they work later camp
Either no notification or notification, not lockscreen junk that dies when you open them
No one really knows for sure, I’ve been wondering the same since day one. I was one of the first people to sign up for closed beta but never got an email. Sorry mr.fate but the best bet is to wait I guess..🙁
New testers are now based off of kicked off old testers who don’t have much activity. TestFlights only have 10,000 slots
I applied but I haven’t got an email I applied for it years ago
just wait
Btw do we get a code sent to are email or gmail if we get in the beta
I’ll do one better. How long does it usually take for us to get the email?
It may take as long as or even longer to wait for the official version of VRChat for Apple.
Gmail is gmail and email is email. Cleary not the same
you have mixed those 2 up very badly
So they removed beta from the name and updated the Icon, I wonder if that means we are etching closer to a official release??
Possibly. Android mobile already has Beta removed just before the 2 year anniversary
I mean you could say an email is gmail
I wouldn’t call that mixing up tho
how about omail?
When will vrchat be on the AppStore
No one knows but coming soon
Fr it’s been too long
should be already right-?
when the new valve index comes out (never)
Hey when is Vrchat IOS Comming
Vrchat itself doesn’t do commissions, you’ll have to ask an individual player
SoonTM maybe
Guys when is vrchat coming to ipad/iphone
I think it could be sometime around the turn of the century, but there may still be several half-turns before we have our answer
VRChat is now out on the iPhone 9 exclusive
One friend joined on his iPad today into a PC and Quest compatible world, not iOs. His mic was very clear. I got to show him my Artemis cat avi. He could see the particles from the lamp.
He did have to press the show button 2 times cause it was a very poor avatar.
So Quest to iOs conversion is working
Always has been, but it's hit or miss due to shader architecture
Being an iPad, meaning it doesn't have to deal with other background apps. Were there any mic issues with iPhones?
I hate to say this but there is no such thing as a iPhone 9
🥹
I will definitely be able to experience VRChat on iPad in my lifetime.
When I played the beta version of VRChat on my iPad 2024 Pro with an m4 processor, it only had 30 frames to prevent my iPad from getting too hot.
VRChat mobile on M4 sounds dope!
My friend didn't want to speak while on the iPad, but he did for a few minutes.
Are we closer to iOS release?
Please I beg y'all to not remove Apple SIlicon Mac compatibility.
I dont even think macs are even supported to begin with
They are not
Is possible play VR in iphone 13 pro?
Standalone VR isn’t possible with mobile phones for VRChat. Only flatscreen gameplay is allowed
Is it on iOS?
When is the ios coming out for everyone
Probably never🥲
Crazy
Does anyone here know when the full on iPhone VR chat app is coming out probably for iPhone SE second generation that’s the one I have and I don’t know when I can get it. I need it. I want it. I crave it. I’m sure I already have a headset, but sometimes I just don’t want to use my headset.
You need a device with 6gb of ram or more in order to play the game.
The iPhone SE2 only has 3gb
The only “SE” device that’s capable of playing VRChat would be the 16e
Dude it’s taking foreverrrrr. I just wanna try it
Yup
“Release when, release whennnn?!”
To quote CDPR: When its ready
I think that’s all any of us want at this point.. can we put our focus on IOS Devs?
You mean the leading question of this channel since its inception: “how can play ios ples”
Yes 😂
Also hey! love your world!
step one: get job
step two: save money
step three: get pc
step four: install moonlight on ios
step five: router is now on fire
step 6: i ate my router
Has anyone ever managed to display very poor avatars on iOS? Because I have never succeeded for several months. 
Must be still in the A/B testing phase for some people
My horrifically poor Velle loads just fine
am i unable to purchase VRC+ via apple or something?
oh nvm i looked at the announcements channel for 2 seconds
Did anyone else manage to get an bata invite
Does it load for your personal avatar or on others?
I think VP can show for avatars you are wearing, or at least it was in testing before they put the hard 6GB RAM cap on. 😅
But this may have changed. I can't test anymore, since the only hardware I have compatible now is a Mac, where a Unity bug prevents it from running. (Unity is considering a patch in 6.2, but uh... that's not the version VRChat uses. Hopefully they backport that.)
Hey I’ve been thinking about trying VRChat out on my iPhone and I remembered that i applied for the beta testing right in the beginning when it started. I didn’t see the email come in and since then I kinda forgot about it tbh. Until this day, I’ve just checked my emails and yes there it was the invite for the iOS beta. Sadly when I try to open the link from the TestFlight email and it says the invitation has been revoked. Probably some token that has expired since its bin quite some time. Now i was wondering if there is the possibility to get a new TestFlight invite or not. If not o can’t be mad cause it is totally my fault at the end of the day but I definitely wanted to ask if there is a possibility. I hope this is the right channel for this kind of question, if not I am sry.
Thanks in advance
-Lowxy
Iirc the people who never responded had their spot given to other people
Nop
How can i apply for the ios beta?
update...but kind of blank patchnote be like....
Wait i have a 16 pro max, does that mean its not compatible?
The faq says you’re fine 👌
Oh okay thx
Just select the highest you can
I want access SOOO BADDD
This might get asked a lot but when will iOS get quests like android?
I would imagine people may say unfair as it's still under closed beta if they do something.
I want acces 😭
No noticeable changes :(
The beta is not over yet
It’s still kinda buggy so maybe like end of year or next year summer, who knows honestly. The only eta they have is soonTM which means no real eta
I think I will see this game officially launched on the Apple App Store this century🥹
How do u sign up for the mobile beta
Forget it
Like seriously not to be mean but at this point the chances of getting on it are ULTRA rare
I signed up for it a year ago and still have not been invited so just wait for its release
Bc I js found out about it from a friend
Yea, it’s quite the hype right now. But it’s in closed beta and the only way to get it is to be invited via email after signing up on the official VRChat website
Thy made how do u do tht
The public version most likely will come up before you get an invite
Exactly
Hi!
I was testing my own world on a test build of the iOS version, and I think maybe the current test build doesn't recognize the world's point lights.
I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same thing?
watch us get vrchat on mobile devices out before a dead meme about a car stealing game
I’ve been waiting around 6-7 months and nothing lol
I’ve been wanting to learn to make some avatars iOS compatible and test them out
its the same as the ios model, you just compile with ios selected instead of android
I know that I just wanted to see it in iOS physically lol
oh! my bad
All good!! Sorry didn’t mean to sound rude there
i didnt see anything rude in that, but i’m a native new yorker lol
Do we have a release date for it yet or nah
Wouldn’t it be better if they just released it an then find more bugs faster ect
Then you risk getting review bombed on the App Store and getting removed
to be fair even if the game becomes stable enough it's still gonna be hard review bombed by ipad kids trying to play vrchat on an ipad 4
and the usual terminally tiktok users being surprised about the "things" that happen in vrcat
releasing an unfinished app as popular as vrchat on the app store is a death wish tbf
You can't review apps that aren't available on your device
Half of it was a joke, but to my knowledge some apps are weird and let you download despite not being compatible to fully run, like Genshin Impact for example, can be downloaded on an iPhone 8 but can't run well or at all
I would suspect they could allow older devices to run the social tab part of the app, but it would definitely raise hellfire of "Why won't it let me into the game!1!1!!!" since you wouldn't be able to enter the game
Anyways, has anyone here been experiencing this weird thing where AirPlaying displays the touch interface? 100% sure they would disable the interface when a controller's connected
in the future, will the 11th gen ipad be supported? it does supposedly have 6 gigglebytes of ram so i assume it should be capable of running it (it isnt on the list of compatible devices though)
Then most likely yes, VRChat doesn't add anything to the survey ever since they made it
had a feeling that was the situation
how do i get access to vrc ios beta
no
It is supported
I don't know much about Apple apps. As far as I know, the Android version of VRCHAT cannot be topped up. You need to go to Steam to top up your account. Even the official website cannot top up. Apple also has a story about the commission it takes for game top-ups. It should be that Fortnite circumvented Apple's top-up commission and opened other top-up channels, which led to the game being removed from the shelves. The question I want to ask is whether VRCHAT will also encounter this situation.
VRChat just goes through the guidelines normally and just uses the platform as a payment processor. They already use steam and meta’s processor which takes a cut as well
When am I going to get the beta test
when the game releases
We waited 7 years for silksong so you can handle waiting for VRChat mobile iOS
Apple has stricter policies on unstable apps, and their app review process is notorious for being nitpicky on a bad day.
Low quality apps do "slip" through, but VRChat is kinda big enough a name that I think Apple will probably apply a little more scrutiny to this one.
The explicitly tell you to use TestFlight for betas and to "Make improvements to your app and continue distributing builds until all issues are resolved before you submit your app for review."
Being said the app is available on all (modern) devices, not just ones with 6GB RAM. It works like the website basically, and if you have 6GB RAM it lets you launch the game client.
I really hope they don’t do that
Does anybody knows what input-methods/events are available on iOS Udon#? Exist a documentation for this?
GTA VI and Hollow Knight fans teaming up in the waiting competition
Do you just mean like controllers and stuff? If that’s what I’m guessing you mean, Unity natively supports just about any controller that runs on iOS, so if you have documentation on gamepads and stuff, you could probably find something
My question is when will it be fully released to iPhone
your guess is best as anyone elses here, you're just gonna have to wait for an official announcement for a date
When it’s ready 👌
So i know the iPhones but which iPads
No it will display bc the airplay isnt like a video, its screen sharing the game not actually connecting to the interface
That wasn’t the case for me a couple months ago, the game would hide the controller interface
The game isn’t being screenshared, as the screen on the iPad goes black while projecting the game to the display
I have an image/video of it somewhere
Check the equivalent iPhone compatible chips for every iPad, but the M series iPad lineup is guaranteed to work (Except the M3)
Okay I found an even WORSE bug involving lag now LMAO
The controller interface now properly disappears, I’m guessing it was a delayed response for the interface to disappear but keep the mic indicator
Time to head to the canny~
when will vrchat work on apple silicone macs? the ios test flight says it works on that but it doesnt open 🙁
will there be a version for MacOS also?
Why do people keep assuming we have a crystal ball?
Not right now. Maybe in the future. In theory, if Unity were to fix the bug effecting iOS apps on ARM Macs, any modern Mac with Apple Silicon could run the iOS version.
But... they haven't yet. Right now, a fix is "under consideration" for an update to Unity 6, then it'd be at Unity's discretion if they backport it to the LTS VRChat uses.
Until then, the game mode crashes on Mac.
In non-nerd terms: Unity has a bug that makes supporting Mac harder, despite how easy it should be.
To be clearer, it is not available on Mac at this time.

how do i run the ios app on my mac
i got silicone and intel
If you actually read what I said: you can't.
Sorry I’m trip sitting someone right now and it’s taking more of my attention than my phone
this is how I bake my reflection probes
