Disable gyroscope by default on Android

Building, Viewing and Sharing

Hello everyone,

is it possible to disable the gyroscope function by default when playing a project on android devices?
When I create a project, it is always on by default. It is especially annoying when navigating multiple scenes, because it is turned on in every scene, even ones that I already viewed and turned the gyroscope off.

Thank you in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Andrea

Hi @MadLab, simply click the VR/mobile icon in the bottom right corner to see the option to Enable or Disable Gyro mode.

Hi @techleapnz, thank you for your reply.
Yeah, that’s what I do, but my problem is that the gyro mode is always turned on by default (at least in the Tour (beta) cospace).
That means when I press play the scene is in gyro mode, so I have to disable it. I change scene and the new scene is in gyro mode, so I disable it again, but when I go back to the previous scene (where I already disabled gyro) it’s in gyro mode again.
I’m looking for a way to disabling it by default. I don’t know if I have been clear.

Thank you for adding more detail to your issue - this helps developers replicate the issue. Questions for you:

  1. Is gyro enabled by default in normal 3D CoSpace environment?
  2. Is gyro enabled by default in a 360 CoSpace environment?
  3. Can you provide an example CoSpace where the issue is happening for you?

Am I right that the problem for you is the change in viewing mode across scenes? ie, you think that if you change a viewing mode in one scene, the app should stick with that mode in the next scene? (a very reasonable assumption)
