Hi! Hot-fix version 1.2.1 of Cardboard VR is now available in the UE Marketplace.

Changelog

Version 1.2.1

Fixed error ITMS-90535 (Unexpected CFBundleExecutable Key) when using recent versions of Apple Transporter: removed the key CFBundleExecutable from the UNACardboard.bundle/Info.plist file.

Hotfix 1.2.2 of Cardboard VR is now available.

Changelog

Version 1.2.2

Fixed a possible crash on startup under iOS (when the user manually grants access to the camera after having rejected it on first launch, some UI code could be executed in a non-UI thread).
Fixed automatic opening of the iOS Settings page and Android App Info view at every app launch, when the user denied the camera access permission and the “Always Show QR Scanner First Time” option is set. At the moment this can still happen once on iOS (see upstream issue #336).
