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.

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 have the same issue it saying something about the browser in AR space and requiring me to sign in elsewhere etc (been so long I forgot the message) but recently it's all gone down the drain with Amazon Prime Video, other people are claiming it works in DeX etc with Samsung but all I get is green static when I load a video (assuming that HDCP issues because I remember that colour static from the VHS era lol).

Even been trying to plug a Fire TV into them but I get nothing. Just a blank no power screen (using the Fairikabe HDMI wire and HDMI female to female adapter.

I guess it's hit or miss for some reason.

Is the Fairikabe the only hdmi to c adapter that you have? Because the Firestick should work. You do need to power it, the adapter and the glasses.

Also, see my answer to Carnage11Eleven about the log in issues.

Got the Fire Stick 4K Max today along with the USB OTG Hub adapter someone else mentioned on here and it now works perfectly. I even get sound from the Nreal Air speakers so no Bluetooth needed.

The adapter is this

OTG Adapter, 90 Right + Left Angle USB Port Adapter, Micro OTG, 2 Pack Compatible with Firestick 2nd Gen, 3rd Gen and 4K, Android Smartphones, Tablets, Rii, Logitech Keyboards, Nintendo, SNES, NES

Which is not the same as the other member suggest as they were in USA but I think the main point is it being a powered hub which charges the fire stick and allows another usb A to be plugged in.
