Email address + verification code

Installation package

Happy Oyster Android Playground APK.apk

Network

Stable access to Happy Oyster services

Device

Android 8.0 or later on a physical device (live visuals are best experienced on a real device)

Install

  1. On your Android phone, allow installation from unknown sources (or allow installs from the file/source you used).
  2. Install the international Playground package we provide.
  3. On first launch, the bottom tabs are: Home · Gallery · Create · Profile.

Sign in

Playground uses email and a verification code (no Google or other third-party one-tap sign-in in this app):
  1. Tap Sign in on Profile, or sign in as prompted during actions that require an account.
  2. Enter your email address → tap Send code.
  3. Check your inbox for a 6-character code (letters and numbers; upper and lower case both work).
  4. After signing in successfully, you may see a daily login credits prompt (used for creating and experiencing).
You can browse Home and Gallery without signing in; features such as creating a world, live explore, and Profile require signing in first. Creating worlds and real-time experiences consume credits. Playground does not currently support self-service top-up. Going through the following order gives you a fairly complete feel for the product capabilities Playground showcases:
