Hey @Twinllama1, are you still having this issue with downloading videos? If so, could you confirm if you've also tried downloading through a desktop?

Hello @ThyRuinedKing unfortunately I do not have a desktop and I am a mobile content creator that downloads and does everything through my IPhone I have had troubles downloading videos that are over 5-10 and more minutes long and this phone is all I have to download videos from if there’s anything I could do I would be appreciative to hear

You'll only be able transfer your files through a PC, there may be ways to transfer files to your mobile but at this time we don't officially have a process.

It's frustrating to encounter download issues on the Meta app despite a connected Oculus and WiFi. Try checking the app permissions for storage access or clearing cache/data. If the problem persists, contact Meta's support for specific troubleshooting steps. Meanwhile, explore a reliable "Twitter Video Save" tool as an alternative for downloading videos, ensuring smoother accessibility. Hope this helps resolve the issue!

It sounds like you're encountering connectivity issues when trying to tiktok download videos from the Meta (formerly Facebook) app to your Oculus device. The WiFi icon with an exclamation point indicates a problem with the internet connection or communication between the devices
