Install the Hub App

To install the PIXO VR Hub App, log in to the PIXO Platform and navigate to the Modules tab.

 

Locate the “PIXOVR HUB APP” from the list of modules, then select the "View Module" icon next to the Hub App (below the Actions column) to view the module and downloadable builds.


Select the "Download" icon next to your preferred Platform:

 

Your computer will download the Hub App installation file. When the download is completed, open it and extract the file (double click the unzipped folder), then sideload the application. For sideloading instructions, see our How to Install and Use SideQuest Guide.

 

Install the PIXO Player

In addition to installing the Hub App, you must also install the PIXO Builder if you would like to launch any modules created using the PIXO Builder system.


To do this, download the PIXO Builder from the PIXO Platform and install it the same way you installed the Hub App. 
 

Login

 

Once the Hub App launches, you will be prompted to log in to your PIXO account. This will be provided for you by your organization’s administrator, or by a PIXO VR Representative.

Note: The login must be performed from a computer that is connected to the internet for authentication to work successfully.

 

Enter your PIXO credentials in the corresponding fields, then select "Login".

Type the provided passcode and select "Login":
