### 1/5 — Doesn't work with the Quest 2

*2023-08-21*

Maybe the positive reviews are coming from users of other headsets but this doesn't function from my iPhone, nor does it work with my wife's Android, so the problem isn't just the iOS development. The idea is that you pair your phone and its camera serves as a third point-of-view to map your face onto your in-app "avatar". The "pairing" process works great, reports it's successful, and shows my account is connected. Then, in the "mirror" feature, I get nothing but a blank screen with two controllers waving around. No avatar, not even one with the placeholder sunglasses their instructions describe, let alone one with my face.

I find it suspicious that none of the FAQs (not even the full manual) talk about camera position, recommended distance, etc. It's almost as if they know this isn't really a feature even though it's shown in the demo videos?

Their license alerts you that they can hold onto your face scan data for years, which is fine if you got some sort of app experience in return. In reality, you're giving them your biometrics for nothing. I wouldn't recommend that deal.
