Updated mobile app

hey all - the mobile app update should be rolling out starting today and hopefully get to you all by Friday.

I'd advise deleting the app we distributed for you to sideloaded and making sure your builds are running against the latest mobile client update.

let me know if you have any issues

Can you please confirm the official update build number?

Anything above 3.0 and you're golden.

Thanks! Is there a way to kick off a forced update? I deleted all the Oculus apps and downloaded again, but it is stuck on 2.31.0.9.0 (based in Japan in case this is relevant, although the development mobiles I received are from Hong Kong, so always download updates from China)

Not that I'm aware of (if deleting didn't work). The sideload build from the 3/14 post is a v3, so probably your best bet. Looks like the 3.0 rollout is taking slightly longer than expected (!!)

Hello again, I could side load the 3.0 Oculus Home app, but every time I open Home it detects an update is available and downloads Oculus Home (China) which downloads version 2 again. Do I need to replace Gear VR Setup Wizard to download the correct Oculus Home version? Or any way to stop it downloading the (older) update?

Hey @r0b0saru, we'll look into this tomorrow and get you an update asap

Thank you. In the meantime, I just inserted a Japanese sim card and did a factory reset. So far so good - Gear VR Setup Wizard connected to the right server and downloaded the non Chinese Oculus Home application. I could then side load the version 3.0 from the 3/14 post and it works. Seem the Gear VR Setup Wizard uses the sim card to determine which server to contact for the Oculus Home download. However, if I remove the SIM and open Home again, the Chinese Home version gets automatically downloaded again...

Not sure if you guys are tracking this, but just wanted to give a heads up that I as well wasn't getting the new version when I removed the sideloaded version.
