I bought a Meta Quest 3 and it also seems to miss apps that were there before on the Oculus Rift a few years back.. at least I recall having a Google Earth app, now I can't find it.
- cableshaft 3y agoBecause Google never updated the app to support the Quest or released it on the Quest store, which is a different store than the Rift, and probably has different requirements. You could try the Wooorld or Wander apps, though, as alternatives, which are on the Quest store. Good example, though.
- PaulHoule 3y agoYou can use the MQ3 as a PCVR headset by plugging in a very fast USB 3 cable and in that case you can use the Rift version on the Quest to run Google Earth. I was also looking at this model https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/m2020-zcam-bettys-rock-sol-498-6b91dfe3d99447a4af3f4d3ef5798d93 https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/m2020-zcam-bettys-rock-sol-4... which I am about to publish in an A-Frame world.
- cableshaft 3y agoI know you can use a Quest Link cable to play some things on the PC store and almost included it, but I didn't see Quest on the supported platforms for the store page and assumed it needed to be on there explicitly if it was going to work. I'm now cross-referencing it with Lone Echo, which I know works on Quest 2 and 3 since I played it recently, and it also only says Rift and Rift S for supported platforms, so yeah Google Earth probably still works on Quest 3 via a Link cable, especially since it still has new reviews as of January 2024 on there. Haven't tried it myself though.
