What phones can I use with VIVE Flow?

Most Android phones can be used with VIVE Flow but we strongly recommend using a phone
that supports Miracast and HDCP 2.2 and above. Having these features on the phone let you
enjoy the full VIVE Flow experience. For a list of recommended phones, go to
www.vive.com/vive-flow-phone-list/.

Why can't I see anything in front of me?

Sometimes when you take off VIVE Flow and then wear it again, your orientation is off and the
screens in VR are not in front of you anymore. Reset the view to fix your orientation and positions
of the screen.
1. On the phone controller, tap the VIVE button.
2. Select More Reset view.
3. Follow the onscreen instructions to reset the view.

How can I optimize tracking in my space?

VIVE Flow uses inside-out tracking, relying on the unique appearance of your surroundings to
orient the VR glasses and maintain your position in VR. Here are some tips to improve tracking in
your space:
§ Avoid direct intense light or glare, both on the VR glasses and in your space.
§ Your space should be bright enough to read a book comfortably.
Minimize reflective objects.
§
Patterns on the walls, ceiling, and floor can help improve tracking. Try to minimize
§
completely blank surfaces.
Keep your play area clear of obstacles.

§ Make sure Bluetooth on your phone is turned on and is connected to your VIVE Flow.
