How to Install STYLY from App Lab on Meta Quest / Quest2 (formerly : Oculus Quest / Quest2)

This manual explains how to install STYLY on Meta Quest / Quest2 (formerly : Oculus Quest / Quest2) from App Lab.

Until now, you could install STYLY on Meta Quest / Quest2 (formerly : Oculus Quest / Quest2) only via SideQuest, but now you can install STYLY on Meta Quest more easily by releasing the official version of STYLY on App Lab.

*If you have already installed STYLY on Meta Quest / Quest2 (formerly : Oculus Quest / Quest2) via SideQuest, we recommend you to uninstall STYLY and reinstall STYLY on App Lab. Unlike unofficial SideQuest, App Lab is Facebook’s official app distribution service, so its safety and ease of use are superior.

What is App Lab?

App Lab is Meta’s official app distribution system made for Meta Quest / Quest2 (formerly : Oculus Quest / Quest2) separately from the existing Oculus Store.

App Lab allows you to install apps that are not certified by the Meta Store through the Meta Store mechanism.

There are two ways to install STYLY on App Lab, and I will explain each of them.
There is no difference in the use of STYLY after installation regardless of which method you use, so please choose the method that seems easier.

Method 1: Install from URL on Your Smartphone or PC

From your smartphone or PC,

access the STYLY page in App Lab.

When you access the page, the following pop-up window will appear. Click “OK”.

Click on “Get “

 

If you are not logged in to your Meta account, a popup will appear asking you to log in, so please enter your Meta account information or your Facebook account that is linked to your Meta account.

You can also log in with your Instagram account or email address on the screen after selecting “Log in with Facebook.

 

Once you have logged into your Meta account, go to the STYLY page again and click on “Get it”.

*At this point, the software has not yet been installed on Meta Quest / Quest2.

If the “Get” section is set to “Purchased or Purchased” as shown below, the work on the smartphone or PC side is complete.

Start Meta Quest / Quest2, open “Apps” and you will find STYLY in the list of applications.

Since it is not yet installed, move the cursor over the STYLY application and click “Install”.
Installation will start.

 

Method 2: Search for STYLY from the Store and Install it.

Launch Meta Quest / Quest2 (formerly : Oculus Quest / Quest2), and click “Store,” and search for “STYLY” in the search field on the upper right.

Open the STYLY application that came up in the search and click “Download” to start the installation.

Launch STYLY

Once STYLY has been installed, click on STYLY from the “Apps” menu in Meta Quest / Quest2.

When STYLY starts up, click “Login”, enter the e-mail address and password registered with STYLY, and click the black mark “Login” to complete login to STYLY in Meta Quest / Quest2.

How to use STYLY VR APP

Please note that the STYLY VR APP has two different ways to experience scenes: PCVR and standalone VR devices.

Please refer to the following article for more information on how to experience each.

Once the STYLY VR APP is launched, please log in.
The login procedure is described in the following article.

Here is how to use the STYLY VR APP.

STYLY VR APP Menu

When the STYLY VR APP is launched, four cube menus will appear.

1. Recommend”: List of recommended scenes
2. History”: Viewing history of the scenes.
3. My List”: List of scenes checked in My List in STYLY Gallery and STYLY VR APP
4. My Scene”: List of scenes created by you

Place the pointer over the cube and pull the trigger button to display the list of each scene.
If you like scenes created by other artists, you can add them to My List and experience them without having to search for them in STYLY VR APP.

How to operate and navigate the STYLY VR APP

Select the scene you want to experience, point to the playback button, and pull the trigger button to activate the scene.

Rotation

Press the stick left or right to rotate the viewpoint in that direction.

Move

When you point the controller in the direction you want to move and press the stick, a green parabola and a border will appear.
The green parabola means “moveable,” and you can move to the  border area by releasing the stick.

If a gray parabola appears, you cannot move to that point.

VR Edit Mode

There is a “VR Edit Mode” feature that allows you to edit scenes within the STYLY VR APP.

It is very useful to edit a scene in VR space while actually checking the size and distance of objects.
The following is a manual article on VR Edit Mode, so please refer to it when using this function.
