### Mixed-reality capable devices
47+
48+
To use the components in an app created with Power Apps, the device that runs the app (such as a phone or tablet) needs to have specific hardware and software. The device you use to create the app in the Power Apps studio (such as your PC) does not need to be MR-capable.

#### For Android devices

52+
For Android devices, this means you'll need to have the ARCore services installed. ARCore is usually installed automatically as part of the default set of apps and services on your device if it supports MR. The services are referred to as Google Play Services for AR. If necessary, you can download [Google Play Services for AR from the Google Play Store](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.ar.core).
53+
54+
For more details on ARCore and supported devices, see the [list of supported devices on the Google ARCore support site](https://developers.google.com/ar/discover/supported-devices#android_play).
55+
56+
For devices in China, the experience is a little different as you'll need to [download ARCore from specific, supported app stores in China](https://developers.google.com/ar/discover/supported-devices#android_china).
57+
58+
#### For iOS (Apple) devices
59+
60+
For iOS devices, MR is supported on specific hardware with ARKit. See the [list of iOS devices supported for MR at the bottom of the Apple augmented reality website](https://www.apple.com/augmented-reality/).
