What you need to get started

You will need a VR headset or an iPad to use Gravity Sketch. This article runs you through all the specific hardware and software requirements to use Gravity Sketch products. 

Gravity Sketch in VR

You can download Gravity Sketch on any supported standalone or tethered VR headset through Steam or the applicable app store directly from your headset (e.g. Oculus Store).

Check PC System Requirements for tethered headsets, and the list of supported VR headsets.

Tethering is a VR term that means connecting your Headset to your PC or laptop. Tethering allows you to harness the computing power of your PC instead of using just the processor in the Headset. This extra computing power allows you to create more complex designs in Gravity Sketch. 

Gravity Sketch on iPad

We recently decided to deprecate the current iPad app due to a lack of current support. This means you will be able to continue to use it for creation, but it will no longer be able to be updated/compatible with models that you have been working on in VR. You will also no longer be able to download the app from the IOS App Store. Here is also a more thorough blog post discussing the reasons we took this action - Evolving Gravity Sketch's screen creation tools - Gravity Sketch.

Can I use Gravity Sketch via Screen?

Currently, you can only view files and rooms on your desktop when not tethered to a headset. You can access collab rooms and add files using your LandingPad account and launching the Screen Collab application.
