Welcome to WeDream! Here are some of the basics that you will need to start dreaming.

Your first step will be to download the app (link to download once available in Apple Store) if you haven't done so yet. Once you have that done, this page can then walk you through how you will make an account. Get excited!

 

Make sure to allow WeDream to take pictures and record video (Select 'While you using the app' in the app permissions) , when it prompts upon installing.

Now let’s get you signed up!

 

How to Sign Up:

  1. Select 'No Account? Sign Up’ button at the bottom of the login screen  

  2. This brings you to enter your invite code: it’s a 6 digit number that allows you access to WeDream.

  3. Select ‘Signup’

 

Don't worry though, you'll get five early access invites if you do receive a code so your friends can join you.

 

If you have not received an invite code then enter your email to join the waiting list and you’ll be one of the first to receive public access!

Creating Your Account:

  1. Enter your First and Last name (Other users can see this if they know your Display Name)

  2. Create a Display Name (this will be your public name in dreams)

  3. Enter your Email

  4. Create a secure password  

  5. Set your Date of Birth (You must be at least 13+ years or older)

 

Now you are all set!

Once you're logged in, we'll introduce you to the platform. Click "Get Started" once you review the introduction.

 

When you first enter the app, you'll see the Dream Feed! The Dream Feed is a log of all the augmented reality experiences on the app. Pick a Dream to join or tap the ‘Create’ button to host your own! You can sort the Dream Feed by the latest creations, see featured works, or view/re-enter any dreams you've created.

 

Just keep an eye on your surroundings, especially if you're using headphones to enhance your spatial audio experience. 

Personalize your Profile! Click on the center icon at the bottom of the screen:

  1. Don't like your Display Name? This is where you can change it.

  2. Introduce yourself: write a bio where you can tell your community a little about yourself.

  3. View the email associated with your account. This is where you can change it as well if you need to.

  4. Password: If you at any time need to change your password, this is where you will do it.

  5. Most importantly: You can set your profile picture! This will be the face that appears in your avatar.

  6. Save any changes to lock them in!

 

The Profile section is also where you can view friends or search for specific users on WeDream. It makes it easy to grow your network of friends as long as you know their usernames.

 

Need to log out of the app? Find the "Log Out" button here, too!

Create and Join a Dream:
 

The Home icon on the bottom left corner will send you back to the Dream Feed.

 

Ready to Create a Dream? Let’s do it!

  1. Select "Create" 

  2. Add a Title: Is it your Class '22 Hangout? Weekly Study Sesh? Gametime? Give it a name!

  3. Add a Description: Elaborate on what the Dream is in a short blurb

  4. Pick a Category! Choose from a list of tags to identify what kind of dream it is (game, discussion, music, party, etc)

  5. Tag your Dream. Entirely optional, but it helps make your dream easier to find in the Dream Feed if it's a public event.

  6. Set the Date: select or schedule when your dream will happen and for how long. If you want to keep it open ended and accessible, keeping the end time at 'Never Ending'

  7. Set your Attendee's Privileges: determine whether you want avatars to be fully accessorized and have gadgets (might be a little distracting in a coworking or study session) , select whether others can edit the dream, or even make announcements to all users within the dream.

  8. Select "Create" again to finalize your dream and enter your creation!

 

Make sure to select the "While using the app" permission prompt for the audio on your phone to sync. An open, well-lit space works best. Scan the floor of the room or environment you're in to sync the floor of the dream.

Dream Controls: If you ever forget how to navigate your dream, the question mark on the right hand side breaks down navigation and reminds you what all the icons mean. But here's what you can do in-dream.

  1. See who's attending! The upper left hand corner shows your attendees.

  2. Customize your Avatar: Your in-app persona is ready to be built here. Customize the look and accessories of your new avatar and check here for airdropped perks!

  3. Access your Gadgets: This is where you'll find your gaming gadgets. Want to play a quick game of dodgeball? Find that in your bag.

  4. Customize your world: Add new objects, change the world color: enjoy the creator tools that WeDream has to offer to refine your dream

 

If you need to exit the dream, use the icon in the top left corner and confirm you would like to leave. Don't think you'll go back into a dream you've created? Select the dream settings and scroll down to delete your dream permanently. Otherwise, your dream will be waiting for you to revisit under the "Your Dreams" toggle on the Dream Feed.

Happy dreaming!
