Android Limited Beta

PROBLEM: When showing a user's avatar, it requires multiple clicks. Clicking "Show Avatar" will force the avatar back onto default shield settings, and displays the HUD message "Avatar will follow Safety Settings". After narrowing down the cause, I believe it may have to do with the avatar's performance being Very Poor. REPRO STEPS: Have User 1, be on mobile Android; User 2 can be on any platform. User 2 must wear an avatar that is uploaded to Quest/Android, and its counterpart must be Very Poor performance. User 1 should try to fully show User 2's avatar. If it goes through on the first try, then User 1 should try to hide the avatar, or revert to the avatar's default shield level settings (aka click the Shield). Then try fully showing the avatar again. User 1 might see a message when fully showing User 2, stating that the "Avatar will follow Safety Settings", while refusing to fully show User 2's avatar. OTHER ATTEMPTS: This bug did not occur when the user was wearing an optimized Public avatar, and did not occur when they were using an platform-incompatible [Impostor] avatar. Also attempted repro with the "Allow override with 'Show Avatar' setting disabled. SETTINGS: Shield Level configuration: 'Normal' Safety Shield. Avatar Main Menu Settings (in attached photo): [Block Poorly Optimized Avatars: Poor and Below] [Maximum Download Size: 10 MB] [Maximum Uncompressed Size: 25 MB] [Hide Avatars Beyond (Culling): Disabled] [Maximum Shown Avatars: 15] [Always Show Friend Avatars: Enabled] [Allow override with "Show Avatar": Enabled] I reproduced this bug with this feature both enabled and disabled, for due diligence Attached video showcasing this bug is at 2x speed, so I can fit the file on Canny.

When the number of my online friends is zero, VRCat should cry about it, instead of being surprised Sorry for the Japanese screenshot, and in English it displays "You have how many friends online meow?! {0}?!"

I was in an instance with a user that had me blocked. I was confused when I tapped the screen where the person was supposedly standing and the quick menu popped up with their profile. It seemed to happen when I tapped where the person's feet supposedly were. It was a group public instance where I had instance moderation powers, and I don't know if that is related to reproducing this issue. Be in group instance with instance moderation powers. Have a user, that has you blocked, stand somewhere you can find Tap the screen where their feet would be I will see about testing it without instance moderation powers.

Bad UI elements scale in Social menu: Buttons and banners are much larger than textual info World > Instances menu: things are just poorly aligned Pics attached.

PROBLEM: Group banners look very compressed, becoming less legible. REPRO: Use the mobile Android client of VRChat Inspect any user's nameplates for their group banner, or look at any group banner in the Groups menu. You can see that banners are hard to view. OTHER COMMENTS: I am aware that this may be an intentional change to save memory on mobile. If this is an intentional change, I believe it might be in the best interest to hide group banners on nameplates unless the QM is open. Group Gallery pictures currently do not appear compressed.

In February devs finally announced that Very Poor avatar has return for VRC Mobile, and it was very exciting news for everyone! But not everything is exciting for me… I'm still unable to use or see any Very Poor avatars from other user in my Samsung S22 Ultra, it's so very frustrating that I can't enjoyed it since February update (build 1585) till latest version. Please fix this issue ASAP because I want to use it so bad! 😫 Proof Video - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DppaHe3uWm0gpc5DBTqdSrA-TcWy-K9j/view?usp=drivesdk

In one of the widgets, VRCat is crying by comparing my online friend count and his zero (see the attached first image). It is strange to continue crying when my friends are also zero (see the second image). Please calm him down.

After the recent update, all world sounds effects get triggered when giving focus back to the app or when changing between portrait and landscape orientations. This happens in many different worlds, but only on the Android app (iOS/iPhone not tested). Some sounds that loop, seem to just play constantly after they are started, unless the world plays the sound normally and triggers the sound to end.

Add the drone to be used on mobile.

VRChat should add an optional hand tracking mode for mobile Android. _(:3」∠)
