Set up once
Add from video pages
A video page’s address usually isn’t the video file itself. With the “Add to Veye” Shortcut, you play the video, tap Share, and Veye finds the file.
Install the ShortcutIn Veye, open Guide › Shortcut and tap the install button. On the download screen, tap “Open in Shortcuts”, then “Add Shortcut”.
Allow it to run on web pagesOn your iPhone go to Settings › Apps › Shortcuts › Advanced and turn on “Allow Running Scripts”.
Use it on a video pageOpen the page in Safari and start the video first. Once it’s playing, tap Share › Add to Veye. The first time on each site, tap Allow.
Sign in once in SafariThe Shortcut opens Veye in Safari, which keeps a separate sign-in from the Home Screen app. Sign in there once with the same account.
No tapping
With the viewer on
The red dot in the middle is your aim. Look at a button and hold still; when the ring fills, it triggers.
Adjust your viewer firstHome › Settings › Viewer › Try it on. When you see one dot and a round circle, you’re set.
Turn your head for controlsLeft: previous, back 10 s, pause. Right: next, play mode, forward 10 s, volume. Seeking and volume repeat while you keep looking.
The pause panelTop row: format, zoom, recenter, brightness, viewer fit. Middle: the progress bar — look where you want to jump. Bottom: playlists, resume, subtitles.
Choose a playlist or leave VRLook at the center cover to play. Look left or right to scroll — further out scrolls faster. “Exit VR” is below the covers.

Add them from the Home Screen appSafari tabs and the Home Screen app keep separate storage. Videos added in a Safari tab won’t appear in the Home Screen app.
For full quality, use FilesPicking from Photos may compress the video. Save it to the Files app first and choose it from Browse.
Pick a format and playlistChoose 180° side by side, 360° and so on. If it’s wrong, switch formats inside VR.
Troubleshooting
I see two dots, or the picture overlaps.
Open the pause panel › Viewer fit. Two dots: adjust lens distance. Oval circle: adjust shape. Too big or small: adjust size. Changes show up instantly.
Straight ahead is off.
Choose Recenter in the middle of the pause panel. Turn your head to where you want straight ahead during the countdown.
The picture shows two copies side by side or stacked.
The format is wrong for this video. Format in the pause panel cycles through 180° side by side, 360°, 360° top/bottom and flat. Veye remembers your choice.
Why does it ask for motion access every time?
That’s an iPhone rule: each time Veye is reopened, Safari asks again. Tap Allow so the picture can follow your head.
The volume button is grayed out.
Only videos on your phone and directly readable MP4s can change volume in VR. For other sources, use the iPhone’s volume buttons.
Watch comfortably
Sit down, keep the area clear, and take breaks. Stop if you feel dizzy. Long sessions warm the phone — watching while charging helps.
