Struggling with the Beast with iPhone 16 Pro.

Just got my Beasts (and did the latest firmware update) and I’m trying to use them with my iPhone 16 Pro, but so far I’ve had pretty limited success.

When I plug them in, I get the blue USB icon in the Dynamic Island, so the phone definitely recognizes something is connected. YouTube videos will play, but audio only comes through the iPhone speakers — I can’t find any way to switch the audio output to the glasses.

I’ve searched around quite a bit and haven’t been able to find a solution.

SpaceWalker mode is also extremely unstable for me and keeps resetting/disconnecting the device. On top of that, most streaming apps like Netflix and Criterion won’t play at all. Some apps, like Reddit, just show a static or corrupted-looking screen.

I also tried 3D mode, but it seems completely broken. The image appears flipped incorrectly, the center of the screen is blank, and the picture is split awkwardly across the far left and right edges of the displays.

Has anyone else experienced this with the iPhone 16 Pro? Is there some setting I’m missing?
