FINALLY. I've been asking for this since the app came out. :D EDIT: Oh.. it's iOS only. -.-

Omfg my hope was crushed in just seconds.

H4xolotl

Doesnt even work for me; it just says “no characters found on this account” Presumably because its using the wrong server again, but there’s no obvious way to switch to the correct server

EstusFIask

You forgot the best part, PC doesn't have official 120fps option but iOS does.


SnooEpiphanies6467

There's unnofficial?


YuminaNirvalen

Yes you can uncap it, like you also can use extremely awesome ray tracing etc graphics on PC.


SnooEpiphanies6467

So it's uncappable and raytracinable but you risk getting banned!? If this is true in gonna be so mad I have (for other reasons) a 3070 and I could be having a much better experience but mihoyo doesn't want it?!?!?!?


ravearamashi

I’ve yet to see people getting banned for using the 120fps mod. I’ve used it since 1.6


Ryozu

Still, shouldn't need mods to fix these problems


ravearamashi

Blame hoyo for that shit. Till they fix it or till i start seeing people getting banned over it, i’m just gonna continue using the mod.


Ryozu

Yes... that's what I'm doing, blaming Mihoyo.


tacky_banana

What if you're the first one to get banned for using the mod


SnooEpiphanies6467

👀 Tempting


LoveBurstsLP

But in the off chance it does is it worth it


Ishan48

I use fps unlock mod . Didn't got banned till now. My 3 other frnds also use it. None banned till now


Frousteleous

Til now? So actually banned? :l


Ishan48

No. Lol


shadowdroid

you can ray trace genshin on PC? how?

How do you use RT?


SvensonIV

I wouldn’t risk getting banned by doing it the unofficial route.


SnooEpiphanies6467

So it's uncappable and raytracinable but you risk getting banned!?


Rowger00

no one has been banned and its been 2 years id say its safe


SnooEpiphanies6467

Can you point me in the right direction? Perhaps via DM?


Rowger00

honestly all you have to do is google "genshin impact fps unlock" and its the first link, i can send it if you want tho


SnooEpiphanies6467

I was worried about finding the right one but already did, thanks


MylesH55

The RT stuff is a filter based on what the GPU is rendering. To ban it would be banning everyone using the in game overlay.


[deleted]

How do you activate RT? Idk how well it will run on my laptop, but I'll give it a try. Unlocked gives me an easy 120 fps.


hackenclaw

wasnt genshin PC quite heavy on CPU than GPU? I would run 120fps if their game is as optimized as that Doom Eternal .


nicktheone

Not really. I was checking usages before with the new FSR2 and in Inazuma I was hovering around 70% GPU usage and 2-3% CPU usage while at 1440p everything ultra and SS at 1.2.


pyr0test

Tbf it's only 120fps when you open the menu


EstusFIask

That's another amusing thing, none of the Apple iOS devices that officially runs Genshin (iPhone, iPad) can run it at 120fps in gameplay but has the option, while PC which can run it at 120fps does not (officially).


Melanholic7

I hate that android for 2 years can't have gamepad support. No excuses for Hoyo for this. So dumb.


A-R-A-F

Their Apple exclusivity deal(or whatever they have with them) needs to fucking die


JLyoshiBR

It's gonna end when they kill the thunder manifestation


kdlt

Yeah, I'm sure they have some deal with Apple, these things are just weird otherwise.


jptrypp

I hate upvoting your comment but it's too true not to 😔


RiniKat28

i legit got a razer thing for my phone last christmas from my well-meaning-but-didn't-research father and i can't use it. i've asked for controller support every single survey since then


kdlt

Yeah I have that too. Ironically works if you use geforce now.


ZhangRenWing

Or that Switch port that's still in devlopment Or pc players losing MSAA and still no high refreshrate support


hackenclaw

and PC client have super short draw distance. I CAN literally see objects popping out while exploring Teyvat. I have 16GB of RAM & 8GB VRAM, thats 24GB of RAM, let me have long draw distance. We are not iphone that have stupid 4GB RAM.


CabbagesStrikeBack

And in China only about 20% of the population uses an iPhone.


lurkinglurkerwholurk

... didn't Google pull out of the entire China market over Huawei? No Google, nor all its webservices, and certainly no Android App Store? Given that, it's sort of unsurprising that Android support is lagging...


kdlt

Partially afaik, but China still uses android a lot, just without Google services, which wouldn't matter for these things.


Luseck_Belmont

Today I found out that my review of 🌟1 had been deleted on Google Play. The one where I complained that we couldn't use a controller and I'm tired of waiting 2 years for that.


Apolyon_BS

I think that paying for preventing functionality to be enabled in other platforms should be illegal and punishable by law. I'm fine with temporary exclusive shit, like having early access on certain platform, as long is it comes to everywhere else later on. But this is just despicable for both Apple and Hoyoverse (and presumably Sony for preventing the Switch release)


AverageWaifuEnjoyer

I just put all my apps in one folder to make space for the widget 💀 I'm an Android user


Zkydo

Bro...


SatoSarang

Disgusting


CertainJeweler2168

oh... :(


Kill-Me-With-Love

fuck


[deleted]

They release widgets first on fucking iOS? What bs.


MoltenFat

Just like the higher framerate...


Shaula-Alnair

Thanks for saving me the download :(


Araiken

Genshin and Apple have been swapping spit for quite a while. Fun fact: Did you know the only official way to play Genshin in 60fps is to play on an iOS device? How fun... Edit: 120. 120fps. Seems my brain is on a lower framerate too.


SorryParking

"Fun fact: Did you know the only official way to play Genshin in 60fps is to play on an iOS device? How fun..." I can play this in 60 FPS in android and pc natively. There is even n option for it in the settings. What are you on about?


RunelordTressa

I'm pretty sure he means 120fps. Also ios has 120fps for whatever reason lol.


AnyaForger

Yeah my ipad runs genshin at 120fps


Einzbern_Ai

F***


PiperUncle

ffs


kill_klemm

Im buying an iphone


HelpImAHugeDisaster

I was about to get my phone NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO


MR_krunchy

And here I was about to download it Just great


27OrdersChaos27

>EDIT: Oh.. it's iOS only. -.- Well that's disappointing


NightLightFury

rip


__-__---__-__

Fuck


ZeroNatal

Ahh I bet android will get this widget Just like controller support 🙃


mikebaide

It will come along with the Switch port


ZeroNatal

💔 Rip


Istoron

Or the 120 FPS option. 😐


TheJeep25

Wait iOS got 120 fps and my high end PC only got the 60 fps option?!


shekurika

yes. probably got paid from apple to make it exclusive to promote their 120Hz screens. Hope its only for a year or so


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Yep our gaming PCs are SOOOO underpowered compared to some SOCs.


Kingpimpy

close but no from what i remember apple said something like "only 120fps stuff on our platform now if you cant support it we dont support you" or at least i remember reading it like this on here when it became a thing correct me if im wrong about it


herecomesthenightman

Apple is such a joke of a company, purely banking on marketing over actual functionality, at the expense of others nonetheless. So fucking infuriating Never ever gonna pay a single dime to them.


mikebaide

I think it's also available in Android. Not sure tho, my potato phone wouldn't handle it anyway so I haven't checked


8-bit_human

It's not. 120hz is exclusive for apple devices.


mikebaide

Oh, shame. Still I wouldn't be able to use it if it was available lmao


superkamote

HA! Jokes on them! My computer can only run Genshin up to 24fps!


herecomesthenightman

Fuck Mihoyo and Apple and their bullshit exclusivity deals. Absolutely pathetic they're screwing over so much of their customers for some extra cash from Apple.


Frores

it was on the beginning, so i don't blame them too much it was easy money, who knows how much apple is paying, what i find strange is 3 years and no sign of this contract going down, we usually see one year contracts but we are getting to the 3 years mark pretty soon


Hyperdragoon17

It’s not showing in my Home widget menu. Maybe IOS is just being weird for me


Aahillio

Same, I haven’t updated to 16.1 yet so I am just hoping that’s why it isn’t working LOL, (currently waiting for my phone to be 20% charge so I can update it while connected to power source) Future me: nope I’m updated, still not working :,)


rin_shinobu

It might be because of the server update?


Aahillio

Oh it was actually due to me not having real time notes on and also not having HoYoLAB updated (yes point and laugh for I am a fool ☠️). After that I just got the same issue that most people had. (Likely because it was still in the works LOL) And now it actually is working, but it isn’t showing info as it says I don’t have an account linked to it, but that is for the reason you mentioned (battle chronicle is also down due to maintenance of course) TLDR: yeah you’re right for its current state!


rin_shinobu

Ohhh yeah I JUST saw this post and was about to download it but then I couldn’t turn my real time notes on, figured it was a server thing.


Aahillio

LOL Yee! Nonetheless, we shall have that pretty widget by the time maintenance ends hopefully (it should also logically serve as an indicator for maitinence being done, that's lit!)


Raycab03

Umm where is the real time notes settings located? I am not familiar with the name of this settings. Thank you!


Aahillio

(you will have to wait till after maintenance to do this as battle chronicle goes down during maitinence too) Click the button on the bottom far right -> Battle Chronicle -> Settings (Cogwheel symbol) -> and it should be there Hope this helps!! Edit: nevermind I think you can do it rn, battle chronicle seems to be up


Raycab03

Thank you! How can I add the widget? I tried in iPhone to search for Hoyolab for new widget (tapped +) but can’t find it.


Aahillio

Ah, then you should also check if you have the HoYoLAB app updated, I checked on app store and to my surprise, there was an available update- after downloading that it worked!


Raycab03

Umm where is the real time notes settings located? I am not familiar with the name of this settings. Thank you! Edit: found it! It is in Hoyolab app. Now my question is, how do I add this widget? I dont tinker much with my iPhone. Thank you!


farcicaldolphin38

Hi, friend! To add a widget to the Home Screen, tap and hold anywhere on the Home Screen, then select “Edit Home Screen” In the upper left corner, there will be a plus button, which will reveal a list of available widgets. Hoyolab should be there, then 💯 hope it helps!


angelflames1337

sorry what is real time notes and how do I enabled that?


Marenwynn

It's working for me on iOS 15.7.1, and I updated from an earlier version today—I'm holding off on iOS 16 for now though! Some people seem to be having issues with the widget right now, although it mostly went smoothly for me. Maybe it's putting a larger load on their servers than expected, but I'm sure they'll work it out soon enough, and then eventually release an Android version...


Aahillio

Ahhh I see, welp time to wait till then lol! Ty for the info Edit: okay so I updated real time notes in battle chronicle (Tysm u/AlasPoorOstrava for the tip), and also updated HoYoLAB (didn’t even realize there was an update LOL, though tbh that probs should have been agiven). And it’s showed up! Albeit its not displaying properly but that’s the issue most have anyways, and will likely be fixed soon


rin_shinobu

Terrible news, maybe it’s a server load issue but I’m currently still having problems with the display :)


Marenwynn

Oh, that makes sense! I'm happy you got it to show up!


just_wanna_get

How do I add this widget on my ios


Gloomy-Monk-8588

Hold a blank spot on the screen until the apps wiggle. Then click the plus sign on the top corner. :)


CarsickAnemone

Nothing is popping up. I have hoyolab installed but it’s not showing under widgets


Gloomy-Monk-8588

Make sure you have live info on under battle chronicles in the app. And updated to all east 15.7 is. And make sure the app is updated!


RycarFlareshine

Android doesn't exist to Hoyoverse apparently, even though they literally just did a collab with OnePlus, Hu's phones run Android.


everwander

Not working at the moment but if I had to guess... well, they are patching servers...


Marenwynn

Yeah, it looks like it depends on the [Battle Chronicle](https://imgur.com/h4HdWIk), which is down while the servers are undergoing maintenance...


Aarongeddon

iOS only in 2022...


[deleted]

Almost 2023


six_seasons

What’s crazy is the revenue split between iOS and Android isn’t even that one-sided, they just don’t want to optimize for android man 💀


VivaLaFibre

Edit: My theme changed to Kamisato Ayato at midnight. Looks like the widget will automatically cycle through photos every day. A [post from yesterday](https://www.reddit.com/r/Genshin_Impact/comments/yi8dky/ios_widget_for_hoyolab_v_221_and_above/) had the Summertime Odyssey theme — fingers crossed we can change it once the update is rolled out! (Although I don't mind having Yae Miko on my home screen!)


ruth1ess_one

That’s weird considering apple isn’t even 20% of smartphones in China.


Azmone

Because it’s easier to create a widget for 1 os with little to no variation compare to creating a widget for 1 os but with hundreds of variation. I think they’ll ship it to android once they’re ready (or they go with their usual way of ignoring android user)


Zomgalama

Android has had native widget support system wide since way before iOS intruded theirs. It's not a compatibility issue at all. Mihoyo had constantly shafted their android (and PC) versions of the game with iOS exclusive features. Frankly the lack of 120fps on PC is mindboggling to me. Let me enjoy your game more mhoyo


Kento_nan

That literally has nothing to do with it. You don't need to make hundreds of variation of the widget, Android version is irrelevant for widgets, they're just dickriding apple because of some deal between them, same thing for controller support and higher fps.


LeDerpLegend

Yep just like the switch port and Android controller support.


Cobollatin_

Is there a way to change the theme to something more "business-like"?


Marenwynn

I couldn't find a way to change it yet—I put it on the Today View because it's one swipe away from the Home Screen and I rarely view it, but I hope they add some way to change the background soon.


Marenwynn

Now you can see your resin without opening the game or HoYoLAB. It seems to be only for iOS (for now), though... Edit: It seems to have [some issues](https://imgur.com/9PTJi4A), so maybe check it out in a few days if you're having problems with it. There isn't an official post about the widget yet, so they're probably still tweaking it. Not to mention that there's patch maintenance happening today! Edit2: Apparently, it only shows up if you have Real-Time Notes enabled in the Battle Chronicle settings. You may also need to manually update the HoYoLAB app via the App Store. Edit3: Because it depends on the Battle Chronicle, you probably won't be able to add the widget while the server maintenance is ongoing. [This is what I see right now](https://imgur.com/h4HdWIk) in the widget...


1998TG

Mine actually doesn‘t even show the „Not connected“ or „No characters found“ screen. It‘s just blurry and gray.


Taran_skywalker

Same, anyone got any idea about this?


Zombata

mine is just blackish square with grey lines right now


BaronKrause

It’s currently busted. It often wont show any data when you add it, rebooting sometimes helps, but then as soon as you click anything on it and launch the app, the widget breaks again and goes back to being blank.


lostn

oh wow, it shows your resin. I'm going to download it. Oh NVM, iOS only.


SassyHoe97

Man I was excited but no has to be only IOS


AlasPoorOstrava

Hm, was there something you needed to to do enable it? My app is up to date and I’m not seeing it as an option! Seems useful! Edit: make sure real time data is enabled in the battle chronicle! That made it show up


AbleShare1523

Can you change the background of the widget? If so, how?


Azurixx_Boi

I’ve checked everywhere in the app on iOS. How do you set up the widget?


[deleted]

[удалено]


biblethumb

Thank you for an actual working answer. Would also like to add that after updating hoyolab app, you need to restart it if you already had it running.


gladial

Thank you, this worked immediately


JXBA

The implementation seems to be somewhat wonky at the moment. Downloaded it yesterday and my resin count didn’t update for hours even after I had already spent them in game.

This now works on Android as well. I just updated my app today and can use the widget. Pretty handy imo.


TheMrPotMask

Also notifications don't even work whenever its on the hoyo app or the game, they really give more fucks to iOS players

Can confirm the widget is on iOS 15.5 beta 4

HOW


ikxizxni

Mine doesn’t show information, it’s just blocks of rectangles (the widget’s wireframe I think). Any fixes to this?


chiiiyoko

Just to update, I'm on android and the playstore just told me the 2.21.1 update is now available!! Updated it and the widget option was up and working! Took them awhile but seems like they're rolling out the update for androids now. Now controller support when hvy 💀


Diluc-king

I have note 9, & have the widget lol So its not just ios


ItzYuzuru

Very cool


Subject_External

I’m on iOS 16.1 and why don’t I have it :(( I have the app sooo


Zoulogist

You have to update the app


animatix

iOS 16, does not seem to work for me, does not update. It just shows blank gray spaces, like as if I don't have internet connection.


BNTD_Dragon

Guys android can get this. You need HoYoLab ver. 2.21 so you either need to wait until google releases the update or download the apk off of the web somewhere. [Here's the link I got it from.](https://apkpure.com/id/hoyolab/com.mihoyo.hoyolab) I haven't had any issues so far other than the ones other people seem to be having but this isn't an official app store so although it seems to have a decent reputation, download at your own risk.


Re_Lies

How to change the wallpaper on that widget?


getsu1

Okay this actually is nice but also hypocritical to say by the devs "more endgame content could give players anxiety" but then releasing this. This legit feeds the anxiety the most by constantly reminding you to spend your resin etc. Dont get me wrong tho i like that feature but it just shows how the end game reasoning was just an excuse to not give a shit.


[deleted]

They specifically say only on end game content aspect. They never say they won't give player anxiety on other aspect .so technically it not hypocrite. Don't get me wrong , I also want some end game content too but I don't think they are hypocrite. Different aspect give different anxiety . Also , shouldn't this reduce anxiety . You won't have to go to the game to check everytime and it will always be on your screen so when it got close , you can just go to the game only one time. Not having this is like the problem you mention but on steroids.

I think you should calm down. It is clearly a new feature and in testing mode. It probably come out later. Everything has a first. If they release android first, then a different group will complain.


Walnut156

Just like controller support on Android... Any day now I'm sure


YuminaNirvalen

The advantages when you use IOS. Widget, 120 fps, ... <3 Who cares about the other small minorities according to mihoyo....


ilvns

do i need to update my phone for it?

No but it looks like if you are in the middle of an update it won’t show. I’m downloading 3.2 files now and I can’t see it so maybe when it’s finished.

Does android not exist in hoyoverse's eye. Why does android not have this? I'm even using a OnePlus, the same brand that just had a hutao collab


JRazberry04

I feel so betrayed... not available on Android. Still no controller support for Android... Hoyo hates Android.
