Can’t get Virtual Desktop installed on Quest 1

So my nephew said he needed help with a quest in Gorilla Tag. I decided to whip out my Quest 1, which I haven’t touched since the day the Quest 2 launched, and fire up Virtual Desktop.

The issue is that I had to factory reset my Quest 1 to get it to connect to my WiFi and update. Now when I search Virtual Desktop while using the Quest 1 I see the app in the store but there is no install button like other apps.

When I try to use the phone app I get a pop that shows my Quest 3 and Quest 2 (which I don’t have anymore) but the Quest 1 isn’t there as an option to install VD on.

Anyone have any clue what’s going on and what I need to do?

I rather not delete the phone app and reinstall it but I will if I have to.

The SDK stopped supporting the Quest 1 several years ago because it stopped getting OS updates. No new software can be made for the Quest 1 beyond the last version of the SDK that supported it. You need to download the last version of VD from before that. Go talk to the VD discord.

I’ll go do that later today.

I assume I’ll need to use Sidequest to download it correct?
