XR Compatibility

The XR system supports multiple backends (refer to XR Overview), currently, the official support is only for the WebXR standard, so the compatibility of XR interactions is also limited by the device's compatibility with WebXR.

Before using XR capabilities, you can refer to CanIUse to evaluate the runtime environment. Below is a summary of the current WebXR compatibility.

Device Support

PC

• PC browsers that support WebXR (this article uses Mac Chrome)
• Install Immersive Web Emulator or other WebXR simulation plugins on PC Chrome

Android

• Terminals and browsers that support WebXR (this article uses an Android device and the mobile Chrome app on the Android device)
• Android phones need to additionally install Google Play Services for AR

IOS

• Safari on iPhones does not currently support WebXR
• Apple Vision Pro supports WebXR

Headset Devices

Depending on the situation, you can refer to the headset's official website for compatibility information. Most browsers in headsets (browsers with Chromium kernel) support WebXR.

Runtime Compatibility Check

In the runtime, you can use the following code to check if the current environment supports AR or VR:

// Check if AR is supported
xrManager.sessionManager.isSupportedMode(XRSessionMode.AR);

Before adding features, you can use the following code to check the compatibility of the feature:

// Check if image tracking is supported
xrManager.isSupportedFeature(XRImageTracking);

Enabling Experimental Features on Android

Android supports some experimental features, but they are turned off by default. You can enable them by setting flags: Open Chrome on Android -> Log in to chrome://flags -> Search for WebXR -> Enable WebXR Incubations
