Create and Join Rooms

Create a New Room

To create your own room, head to hubs.mozilla.com and click "Create a Room". Your new space is private; no one else can join until you invite them.

Join an Existing Room

You can join an existing Hubs room using either a URL or a numeric code. If you have a URL, navigate to the URL in your browser. If you have a numeric code, visit hubs.link to use it.

Enter a Room

Before entering a Hubs room you are in the room's lobby. You can see and hear what's going on in the room but you can only interact with the others using text chat. The process of entering a room is a bit different depending on your device.

On Desktop / Mobile

Click "Enter Room" and follow the prompts to select a username/avatar and set up your mic. On the final prompt select "Enter on Screen", or "Enter on Phone" if on mobile.

On a Standalone VR Headset

If you opened the URL on your desktop or smartphone, choose "Enter on Standalone VR" to create a code that makes it easy to open on your standalone headset (e.g., Oculus Quest, Oculus Go, Samsung Gear).

Open the browser in your VR headset, navigate to hubs.link and enter the code.

Hubs Lobby Your browser does not support HTML5 video.

On a Wired-in VR Headset

We recommend Mozilla Firefox for wired-in headsets (e.g., Oculus Rift, Windows Mixed Reality, Vive). To use a desktop VR device with your headset, the Oculus app (Oculus Rift) or SteamVR (Windows Mixed Reality, Vive) must also be open.

On your computer, click "Enter Room" and follow the prompts to select a username/avatar and set up your mic. On the final prompt before entering you should see an option to select "Connected VR Headset".
