There used to be an option in safari settings under security to allow use of motion sensors. Which you need for web based vr . This option has been removed for some reason so all vr games that are web based cannot run anymore

Hey Dazzer71uk,


Thanks for the additional information.


Could this be a Safari extension which was installed for this particular website?

Get extensions to customize Safari on iPhone - Apple Support

In the Safari app , you can install extensions to customize the way your browser works. For example, extensions can help you find coupons when shopping, block content on websites, give you access to features from other apps, and more.
The Page Settings menu. At the top is the Show Top Address Bar option. Below that is the Manage Extensions option, followed by installed extensions: Honey and Grammarly for Safari.
View and add Safari extensions
1. Go to Settings  > Safari, then tap Extensions.
2. Tap More Extensions to browse through extensions in the App Store.
3. When you find one you want, tap the price, or if the app is free, tap Get, then follow the onscreen instructions.
Manage your extensions
Tap the Page Settings button on the left side of the search field, then tap Manage Extensions. Select or deselect each extension to turn that extension on or off.
Use extensions
Extensions access the content of the websites you visit. You can change how much access you give each extension:
1. Tap the Page Settings button on the left side of the search field, then tap the extension you want to give permissions to.
2. Choose how much access to give each extension.
Important: Check which extensions you have installed and make sure you’re familiar with what they do.
Remove an extension
1. Swipe down on the Home Screen, then search for the extension you want to remove.
2. Touch and hold the extension icon, tap Delete app, then follow the onscreen instructions.

You may need to verify it's still compatible with iOS 16, or remove and add a new one. Check with the developer of the extension.


If this still isn't what you are referring too, we'd suggest contacting the web developer for the VR page you're using. And, if they are referring to a standard option for Safari, contact Apple Support for help.

Apple Support


All the best!
