QUEST 2, 3, AND PRO. MULTIPLAYER.
GIVE YOUR VR WORKOUTS A DESTINATION. Enjoy VR fitness adventures with friends, without leaving your home or gym, on your fitness treadmill or without one. And now a stationary bike option is available!
Just hop on a treadmill or bike, wirelessly connect, and start exercising. Octonic’s Motion Engine precisely aligns speed in VR with the speed of the treadmill or bike, allowing users to exercise seamlessly in VR worlds we’ve developed. You’ll see your treadmill or bike in passthrough, making the experience natural and safe.
Octonic wirelessly connects the Quest with numerous Bluetooth FTMS-compatible treadmill and bike brands. On treadmills, users fully control the machine (incl. start/stop and speed) from VR. On bikes, VR speed matches the physical bike speed, while users can control resistance right from VR. In non-connected mode, Octonic is compatible with all fitness treadmills.
For those without access to fitness machines, we offer a stationary, run-in-place mode.
Demos of all our VR worlds, which include gaming, competitive, and recreational trails, are included with your free download. Full worlds are available in-app as à la carte purchases or an all-worlds bundle.
Octonic supports a swappable hand-tracking and controller interface. We recommend a non-fabric head strap, like Kiwi.

My experience with the trial was positive, but creating an account proved frustrating. The registration process failed, and the initial password reset link was completely unresponsive. After contacting support, they eventually provided a working password reset link, which was helpful. However, it's a shame this entire process was so unnecessarily difficult. On top of that, the app itself has crashed quite a lot, further impacting the overall experience.
I download the winter lake map, click launch and nothing happens so I thought I'd reload the game and try and it tells me to download the map again so I did and again nothing happens when I click launch. So I uninstalled and reinstalled and the same thing happend. Quest 3. Would have paid for all maps but no point if It won't even let me try the included map. The free demo map worked though.
I have a treadmill and thought, why not give it a try? Many of the reviews mentioned bugs, I thought, surely they won't be too bad. What makes them particularly inexcusable is the straightforward nature of the app. You go to a menu, you select a spot, you walk. The state is pretty known, it's not like a complex PVP game or something of that nature. In the first 5 minutes of using it I found a) pointer disappearing, b) buttons not responding within the environment, so no speed/stop start controls operating, c) visual glitches like a kangaroo hopping around even though I've set it to hide the environment.
The environments themselves are so boring and low poly, I just can't picture anyone feeling engaged while trudging around them. Set something similar up on youtube, or watch a show. It's free to try, so no harm giving it a go if you're desperate.
Before Octonic my treadmill was so boring but now I eagerly start my daily workout. Love it. It was very difficult to find this app. If you search for treadmill in Meta store you don't find it. On facebook one lady mentioned it and wow! Also, now it's perfect, so please don't change anything. Just build new worlds. Thx 🙏
Thank you for making this game compatible with stationary bikes! I truly enjoy the rides and appreciate the variety. This is exactly what I was looking for to make my workouts more fun and motivating. My only request to the developers is to add more stationary bike-compatible rides—even if they come at an additional cost—because I absolutely love the ones currently available. I also use the Holofit app, which offers similar bike rides, but the movement around curves isn’t very smooth and sometimes gives me motion sickness. Your rides, however, are absolutely perfect. Please keep developing more!
I really wanted to like this game to enjoy my time on the treadmill more. But it has so many glitches and it's very irritating.
