Connecting Discord Account does nothing

I've followed the instructions here: https://www.meta.com/en-gb/blog/discord-account-connect-meta-horizon-profile-quest-vr-games-share-status

My account is set to "Joinable"
I have the discord app connected
Inside discord, I see the authorized app "meta_presence"

The only strange thing I noticed is that I see the discord app connected in both the mobile Meta Horizon app and the desktop. But when I look at accounts center connections from the headset, there is no discord connected showing.

On Desktop accounts center:

On headset accounts center:

The ability to connect your Discord account to your Meta Horizon profile is rolling out gradually, so we can squash any bugs that pop up along the way. If you’re not able to link them right away, please sit tight — good things come to those who wait.

They are still rolling out the feature. It's probably not fully implemented yet.

On headset accounts center

I'd say that will require a headset software update not yet released.

Note that in Discord, under my profile Activity->Connect Accounts, there is no option yet to add Meta.

My connections in headset accounts center, mobile accounts center, and in discord all show the correct connection. However, i tested this with gorilla tag, it worked. I closed the game, it took 20 minutes to stop showing that i was playing gorilla tag and has now fully stopped functioning entirely

You had better luck than me. FWIW I now DO get this above view in information and permissions within the quest headset but yep - no status updates in discord whatsoever.

Actually after a day, it seems to be working pretty well, it doesnt take as long to detect that iv gotten off the game, however. It only seems to work for gorilla tag, b&s doesnt work, bonelab doesnt work, etc. Im assuming the first game they had this built for was gorilla tag, since its one of the most popular games, beat saber would probably also work with that logic. But I dont own that, so I cant test it.

Over a month later on this and it's still not working btw. The discord connection "connected" at least properly shows from within the headset if I got to my apps and connections. But what doesn't work is the discord connection, it doesn't show my Meta Horizon online status like the article states, it also doesn't show the game I'm playing if I go in-game.

Doesn't work.

To update - as of 3 . 19 . 2026 this still doesn't work.

Maybe when the official discord integration comes out it will magically work? Do you guys not have a single developer on this right now?
