Im developing a game for AirConsole in Unity and i am having issues with testing it on my phone.
Everything works as expected when running the game with airconsole Browser start mode: Virtual Controllers, EXCEPT connecting with my real phone. The virtual controllers view
Connecting real phones is not available through the AirConsole app so i have to use a browser. The issue is that with my (Samsung) phone i can't connect to the game because it redirects me instantly to the "Download App" screen: enter image description here
This same problem is also ocurring with any of the provided AirConsole examples such a the pong example.
When i tested it with my friends who have iPhones and used Safari, they were able to connect succesfully. I have tried 4 different browsers on my samsung phone with no luck.
Also when i go to http://192.168.3.10:7842/controller.html on my phone, it loads the controllers no problem. (I am for sure on the same WiFi and there is no problem with client separation) I also tried using ngrok and there was no difference.. as it seems the problem is with the forced rederect and not the actual connections.
When i checked the network calls by remotely debugging the phones browser i get this call sequence: enter image description here This is the stuff that loads right after when i press the green checkmark button after inputing the connection code.. Then this all dissapears when the ?http=1 is loaded and then i am redirected to the download app screen again.
Another thing that might be connected with this issue is that when i start the game with AirConsole Browser Start Mode: Normal/Debug, i get CONNECTION_REFUSED in the browser.
I am developing on a M1 Mac and using AirConsole unity plugin v2.13 and Unity 2021.3.24f1.
Thank you for reaching out :)
I am actually preparing a new releases that addresses this and the related bug (https://github.com/AirConsole/airconsole-unity-plugin/issues/8). The release is expected to go live tomorrow (Nov 2nd, 2023) with the Unity AssetStore release as soon after as their review process allows for.
