Heads up! Beta users should check out the dedicated Beta page for download instructions.
Zephyr requires two components to operate:
Click each item above to see how to download each component.
First, open Zephyr on your desktop. SteamVR will launch if it is not already running.
Note the Join Code value. You'll use this to tell the Android app where to connect. Alternatively, you can select QR Code and can scan the code within the app.
Your notification history can be viewed in the History tab and within VR by selecting the Zephyr overlay. Note that this history isn't stored and will be erased when Zephyr is closed.
Heads up! Your Android device must be on the same network as your desktop.
Next, launch the Android app. Zephyr needs access to your notifications so be sure to follow the prompt if needed.
Tap Start to connect to the desktop client. The app will automatically detect the desktop client if it's running. Select your computer to immediately connect to it. Alternatively, you can manually set or scan the join code displayed in the desktop client.
The app will remember your most recent computer, but you can update the join code or connect to a new computer by either tapping the join code or long pressing the Start button.
When you're done using Zephyr, press Stop. A notification is displayed when Zephyr is running.
You can select which apps to show in VR within Manage notifications. Just tap the menu icon at the bottom left to access.
