CitraVR

CitraVR is a free Quest app for playing 3DS homebrew and personal game backups in 3D. It supports stereoscopic rendering, mixed reality, and a large screen that can be moved and resized. The listed compatible headsets are Meta Quest 2, Quest Pro, Quest 3, and Quest 3S. It works with Touch controllers and third-party wired USB or wireless Bluetooth controllers. The app uses an emulator core incorporating changes from Azahar and has Azahar as its upstream project. CitraVR is an engineless OpenXR app, and its maker says it does not depend on the Meta SDK. Its source is public under GPLv3 or later. Games must be decrypted because the Azahar core no longer supports encrypted games. Release notes describe Android multiplayer rooms with private rooms, chat, and public-room browsing when an unofficial web API is configured. They also warn that Vulkan with asynchronous shader compilation may cause graphics artifacts or briefly incomplete visuals while shaders compile. Releases are provided through GitHub Releases, with support resources including troubleshooting pages, GitHub issues, and a Discord channel.
