Requesting ARCore APK Installation with ARFoundation

[Robin_Gamedia]

I’d like to request the ARCore APK installation from script. With ARCore, this is done by calling “Session.RequestApkInstallation(bool userRequested);”. Is there a way to do this with ARFoundation too?
Or should I just use the GoogleARCore one?
I’d like to avoid having to add “using GoogleARCore;” to my script when I can have the same results with just the “using UnityEngine.XR.ARFoundation;”.

ARFoundation will do this for you automatically (see ARSession.attemptUpdate). You can also invoke it manually with ARSubsystemManager.Install() though you should check the ARSubsystemManager.systemState first to check whether installation is required and supported.

Thank you! ARSubsystemManager.Install() is exactly what I needed.
