Quest 1 stuck on an old build
Hello,
Recently I pushed v1.0.2 of my game (Home Detective) on App Lab, and when I browse to it on my Quest 2, I download that version, all hunky dory.
However, when I download it using my Quest 1, I get an old build, v1.0.1. There is no prompt to update and it re-downloads that version even if I uninstall it and search for it again.
Has Quest 1 already been deprecated from new builds, or is it something I have done? In v1.0.2, I did upgrade Unity and the Oculus SDK, but made sure I was still targeting Quest 1, 2 and Pro for the build.
Thanks,
David

Ok... finally figured this one out. It was essentially due to the Unity upgrade I had made.
When you build with a higher Platform SDK version, it may now block builds getting to the Quest 1. It is shown to you as a warning if you go to Release Channel > Builds and look at the info for that build.
Thing is, since we now have to target API level 32 for new builds, and this requires an SDK upgrade, I think that has essentially soft-locked Quest 1 out of getting any build updates. I suppose it is an older device now, and the Quest 3 is on the horizon, but it's still a bit of a shame.
