Hi folks!

A big release today regarding haptics for all haptics lovers!

What is new:
Handy connection through Wi-fi: - Available on all browsers (laptop, PC and smartphone)

  1. You need to have Handy Key in their profile. If you do, upon selecting script, Handy connects automatically.
  2. “Scripts” added into player “Settings” - you can choose between scripts depending on subscription or purchase availability

BT connection only works on Chrome regardless of device!

Supported BT devices: Handy, Kiiro Keon, Kiiro Launch, Kiiro Onyx, Vorze Cyclone Sa, Vorze Piston Sa

Below you can find a small guide on how to make it work:

Handy Wi-FI

  • You needs to have Handy Key inserted in the relevant field in his profile
  • When opening video, you need to open settings and choose an available script - Handy connections will begin automatically
  • On the down left corner there will be status update. Red- connection problem, Grey - connection in progress, Green - connection active.
  • When changing script, reconnection occurs - system needs a few seconds to reconnect.

BT connection:

  • You need to enable BT mode on the device.
    Important: DO NOT connect device to your laptop if using it in desktop, this will prevent connection
  • When video open, click "Connect" button and a system window will open, showing all available BT devices, choose the one you want want to connect
  • Connection will show with green dot (statuses are the same as for Wi-Fi)
  • Also script histogram will be visible on the status field
  • Choose a script and once video is playing, script will play as well.
  • If you opens a new video, you need to connect device again the same way.

Hope you guys enjoy!

Do you know how to get a Kiiro Keon to show up as a normal bluetooth device? My apps like Haptic Connect and Feel Connect can see it and connect, but it doesn't show up on an generic bluetooth device searches.

    shayne35 Check if you have it connected to your laptop or any other device. If yes - disconnect it and then push on the "Connect" button

    doublevr changed the title to Handy works from Oculus/Meta WebXR browser now .

    I am not sure if it is connecting to something unknown or what. The blue lights are flashing, unlike when it connected to the Haptics Connect app(which makes them go solid). I tried from 3 computers (an iMac in MacOs, a laptop in Windows 10, and a desktop computer in Windows 10), all using Chrome. Previously, it has and does work fine with a Quest 2/3 using DeoVR and from an iPhone using the Haptics Connect web browser built-in.

      i have a similar thing my pc can find my keon but chrome cant

        shayne35 Blue lights should be stable before you try to connect Handy on web. Could you check if it is possible to wait a bit before the blue light is not flashing and then try connecting?

          raoul00123 Did you connect PC with Keon before trying to find Keon with Chrome browser? If yes, you should not connect it to PC.

            Kieshi i have not connected it to my pc, i ment that my pc can find the keon as a BT device but in chrome it never shows up it keeps telling my no device found

              shayne35 sorry, my mistake, I remembered that Handy did have a blue light on when in BT mode and came to this conclusion 🫢

              I will check with the team about this and will get back to you guys

              Is this referring to the browser built into Quest 2?

              Where do I have handy key in profile on meta browser?

              I feel like im missing something obvious, I can only put a handy key in DEO and that isn't working.

                strider123 This is strictly for Web.
                If you open your profile on web, there will be a place to insert Handy key and next time you open video with your Handy in Wifi mode - it will connect automatically
