Wordle "App" Arrives on Quest with Deceptive Marketing - UploadVR
Wordle "App" Comes To Quest With Misleading Marketing
The Wordle "app" is now available on Meta's Quest Horizon Store, though it functions primarily as a shortcut to the website rather than offering a unique experience. Meta has described this as a "native experience in mixed reality" specifically designed for Quest, but it turns out to be a progressive web app (PWA) with no additional features or unique virtual environments as advertised. This approach mirrors how Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint were brought to Quest, with the same limitation of requiring an internet connection. It raises the question of why Meta doesn't allow users to create their own web app shortcuts, a feature already available on other devices. For full details, visit the source at UploadVR.
