Hyperscape worlds missing in Hyperscape Capture Beta app after the 15th Nov update.

The Meta Horizon Hyperscape Capture Beta app was updated on 15th Nov to allow captures to be published as Horizon Worlds. Now any captures that I made before the update have vanished, so I no longer have any control to edit or delete the previous captures that I made.

What I see in the Meta Horizon Hyperscape Capture Beta app.

This is quite strange, because the worlds I had previously created can still be viewed in the separate Meta Horizon Hyperscape Preview app, but that app does not give the user any option to edit or delete their captures.

This seems like a terrible oversight by the developers. I've reported the issue here.

  • I have the same issue, actually captured important moments. Would be a shame if these were lost. Where you able to resolve? The link to the issue doesn't work for me

      The issue I submitted to the Feedback Centre has received the following response:

      The last update to the apps was on 2 and 3 December. There is a delete button available now in the Preview app, so I can at least delete my old captures if I need to. However, there is still no way to edit them (I made a typo in the name of one of my captures, which I can no longer edit).

      I haven't noticed any change to the Capture app however. It's a pity Meta haven't added an additional tab to the Capture app to let us access our older captures that are not compatible with the newer "Worlds" style captures.

      I've submitted an additional report asking Meta to add a tab to the Capture app for viewing older captures. We'll have to wait and see what happens.
