In one test on Meta Quest 3, TikChat opened in the headset’s built-in browser and displayed new TikTok LIVE comments, gifts, likes, and other session activity. The browser window stayed visible after control returned to the game. We didn’t hear Chat Reader read any comments aloud in this test.

Can you keep TikTok LIVE chat visible while playing on Quest 3?

In the tested setup, yes. The TikChat window stayed in view after the game regained controller input. That meant the creator could glance at the chat without reopening the browser. Check the same behavior in the game you plan to stream.Meta’s developer documentation describes opening a browser window over an immersive app in Horizon OS. Only one app receives hand or controller input at a time. When the browser has focus, the game ignores those controls. Meta also says some games may pause when they lose focus and resume when they regain it. Meta’s input-focus requirements · Meta’s app pause requirements
Do you need to pin the browser window?
Meta’s earlier Pin Windows to Worlds feature covered placing windows in mixed reality and VR Home. The Horizon OS 2.9 release notes say Meta removed the separate anchoring option from the window’s control bar. Use the controls available on your headset, then check whether the window stays visible after you return to the game. Meta Quest release notes

How to set up TikTok LIVE chat on Meta Quest 3

  1. Open TikChat in Meta Quest Browser. Visit TikChat in the headset and sign in. Open TikChat
  2. Connect your TikTok LIVE. Follow the setup steps for your saved TikTok channel. TikChat setup guide
  3. Position the chat window. Adjust the window and text size so you can read comments at a glance without covering the part of the game you need to see.
  4. Return control to the game. Check whether you can still see the chat once the game responds to your controls again.
  5. Ask someone to send a new comment. Check whether it appears in the headset while you’re back in the game. That gives you a better test than checking whether older comments are still visible.
TikChat gives you a private chat view inside the headset. Keep using your existing setup to broadcast the gameplay. If you want viewers to see the chat on the stream itself, that requires a separate broadcast overlay. TikTok LIVE chat viewer vs. broadcast overlay

Does TikChat text-to-speech work on Meta Quest 3?

We didn’t hear Chat Reader read any comments aloud in this test. New comments appeared on screen. The cause of the missing speech remains unknown.Chat Reader uses browser speech synthesis and needs an available local voice. The Web Speech API specification explains that the browser determines which voices are available and that the voice list can be empty or still loading. The specification describes how voice availability works. It doesn’t identify what happened on the headset in this test. TikChat features · Web Speech API specificationTo check your own setup, turn on Chat Reader and ask someone to send a new comment. Test it with the game and audio setup you’ll use on stream. If you can see the comment but don’t hear it, plan to use the visual chat window for that stream.
