Instructions

Send messages from your phone to your PC client

  1. Make sure the IP address of your PC is reachable (within the same network, or your phone is connected to your PC hotspot).
  2. Set the destination IP address to your PC's IP address. (Note: Your PC's IP address is NOT 127.0.0.1, you have to find it on your PC!)
  3. Enable OSC function in the game

Important

Ensure that the communication condition from your phone to your PC is good. If there are packet losses, some messages may not be sent.


Sending messages with one click in VRChat Mobile using floating button

  1. Grant Display over other app permission for this app
  2. Set the destination IP address to 127.0.0.1 or turn on the option Send to localhost (recommended)
  3. Enable OSC function in the game

FAQ

How to enable the OSC function?

Action menu (Press R) > Options > OSC > Enabled

If enabled successfully, the avatar you are using should reload.

Failed to send message

  • Check if your phone and computer are within the same network and make sure you have found the correct IP address.
  • Check if OSC is enabled successfully

Failed to enable OSC

In most cases, the port is occupied by a residual process of VRChat.
You can check if VRChat.exe install.exe process exists in the background and end the process, then try to open it again.
If it fails, it is recommended to restart your computer and try again, or search on your own how to fix port occupancy.
