Worlds in Unsupported country

Hi! 

I start playing with the horizon worlds when I was traveling to the US. Now I get back to my country and I found that it does not support the horizon worlds. So is there a way that allow me to access horizon worlds even if I am in a Unsupported country/region?

    Unfortunately you can't. I'm in an unsupported country so I don't have it. There is a technical thing you can try. It's possible to install a VPN directly on your home modem to make it look like you're in a supported country. In this way you csn access Horizon Worlds. But check that your modem has the facility. It's a little bit complex to set up and you will need a VPN subscription. Search "how to set up VPN on your router" on YouTube and you'll find an easy way to do it.

    Get a free VPN for your PC or phone and use it as a hotspot to get worlds. Or side load a free VPN APK file directly onto the headset.

    A VPN on the phone doesn't work my friend. The wifi router that the headset is connected to has to be connected to a supported country. Possibly you can put a free VPN on the headset but that won't work properly.  Free VPN's do not give you a choice of country, it often just connects you to a different city in the same country and if it does connect to outside, it's so slow, it won't be usable. It will just about be good enough to use on your phone  but for data hungry VR, forget about it. They also often have a time or data limit and automatically disconnect you when you reach a limit which is usually extremely small. Best option  set up a quality high speed paid VPN on your router. It's easy to do and you'll likely get a fast enough service with enough bandwidth though it will still be less than the maximum you can get from the router. It's also extremely cheap, you can get 3 years for very little money, and you can use it for all your devices.

    You only need the VPN on the phone or tablet or PC to 'activate'worlds on the headset. Once that is done you're good to go.

    it seems that they patched this considering that i only gained the editor for PC thanks to a dev account while words are impossible to download from the store even with a vpn
