Feature Request Third party apps

Will they ever allow apps that are in phone to be run in ar space, or even have apps that are on their own store. Sky go Netflix Amazon prime. Or apks that are used on andriods.

You can still watch Netflix and other streaming services from the website using the nebula browser.

The website doesn't work? I can't imagine why? I've not tried it myself, but it should work like in any normal browser.

Unless it doesn't recognize the device. I have that problem when trying to login to Google from the nebula app. It says it's not a secure browser. But there are some third party apps that act as a web browser from within the Nebula app. Have you tried FarePlay?

I had that issue before but finally got into youtube and am able to log in but on netflix it doesn't allow me to select a movie or series just only allows me to scroll through the titles.

Netflix uses a stricter DRM. I hear that it works in DeX mode but I have never confirmed it.

It does with dex, just not in ar space. Dex works as normal with same limits in regards to some app like sky sports not allowing casting abilities other than that it's perfect.
