Developer documentation updates for the week of July 1st, 2024
Hello Meta Quest Developers! Here are the latest developer.oculus.com documentation updates for the week of July 1st, 2024. Updates: The Meta Quest Store has been renamed as the Meta Horizon Store. We’re updating the documentation to reflect this over the coming weeks. Starting August 5th, 2024, all App Lab apps will be moved to the Store. From that date forward, apps can only be submitted to the Store. If you have an App Lab app, you can choose to delist the app instead of having it moved for you to the Store. For more details on these updates, see today’s blog post. The topic Meta Quest Virtual Reality Check (VRC) Guidelines has been updated with the required VRCs that all apps must pass to get onto the Store starting on August 5th, 2024. Early Access is now available for App Lab apps that are moving to the store. From August 5th, 2024 onward, all new app submissions to the Store have the option of applying the Early Access label. In this first iteration, Early Access is just a label that applies to apps when searching the Store, in app PDPs, and in customer reviews.
