Finding Your Way Around

A map of the signed-in screen: the sidebar, the top bar with your avatar and credit balance, and the box on the home screen where every project starts.

The sidebar

Signed in, there is a sidebar on the left. Whatever the page you are on offers sits at the top — the Community page puts Projects, Skills and Themes there, the Arcade puts Your games and Browse arcade. The bottom block never changes and holds three things:

• Skills — reusable instructions you apply to projects
• Community — everything other people have published
• Help & Wiki — this documentation

Two rows that used to sit here moved into the top bar on 3 Sep 2026: your profile is the avatar in the corner — one press opens the account menu, which holds View my profile, Notifications with its unread count, and Sign out. There is no separate sign-out icon beside it any more, and on a phone the same menu sits behind the ⋮ button, and Buy is the word inside the credit-balance pill, one press from the Pricing page.

Community joined that block on 26 Aug 2026, when the home screen lost its three link cards and needed somewhere permanent to live.

Light and dark used to be a fifth entry down here. It moved up into the top bar, because it disappeared whenever the sidebar was folded away.

The box on the home screen

The composer in the middle of the home screen is where you start something. Write first — you no longer have to classify your idea before typing it.

Before you type, the chip beside the box reads Auto. As you type, it picks the studio your words point at by itself, and the line under the box says where it is going and why ("Going to …"). Only when nothing you wrote points at a studio does it fall back to General Chat. Press the chip to choose yourself; from then on your choice stays however you edit the text, and the chip always shows where your text is actually going.

The whole catalogue sits under the box, in Or start from a tool — one searchable, ranked table of everything the app can make, with the studios as filters rather than as gates. Clicking a row opens the page of that tool; only the small letter tile at the left of the row aims the prompt box at it, without leaving the home screen. On a phone the same catalogue opens as Choose a tool: categories in a rail down the left, their tools on the right, and a search box for going straight to one by name — and picking there does not commit you until you press Use this tool.

Three things worth knowing:

• You can attach up to three files to a prompt.
• Enhance prompt rewrites what you typed into a fuller, clearer version — and it is free, so there is no reason not to try it on a vague idea.
• Beside the tool chip is a small model chip, and it changes with the tool you picked — chat models for General Chat, image models for the Image Creator, a project's own models for the Code Studio. Some tools show no chip because they choose the model themselves; Choosing an AI Model has the detail.

Pick up where you left off

Under the box sits a strip of your three most recently touched projects, each with when you last touched it. One click reopens it — which is usually what you came back for.

Why your sidebar may not match a friend's

Two people can sign in to VyroAI and see a different list of studios, and neither of them is broken.

Every tool carries a status. Live tools are shown to everybody. A tool in Early access is hidden from normal accounts and shown only to staff and to people who have been given the tester role by hand — so a studio you have read about, or seen someone else using, can genuinely be missing from your own sidebar. A tool marked Testing disappears from everyone except staff.

There is nothing to switch on and nothing to buy: an Early access tool appears in your sidebar on its own the day it goes live, or the day someone grants you the tester role. If a feature you were promised is not there, that — not a bug — is almost always the reason.

The credit balance

Your balance is in the top bar and updates as you spend, and the Buy inside the pill goes straight to the Pricing page. It shows at every width, phones included. On a phone it is the pill beside the ⋮ menu; the menu itself does not list it.

The one place it is not shown is inside the Code Studio, whose toolbar belongs to the project — check it before a long session, or open your profile in another tab.

This wiki is not the only reading

This wiki answers "how does VyroAI do X". The Guides page — vyroai.vip/resources — is the other half: longer, step-by-step walkthroughs of building a first plugin, a Discord bot, a datapack or a Skript, written to be read before you know the product. Nothing there needs an account, and each guide says plainly where the tool struggles.

On a phone the sidebar is tucked away behind the menu button in the top-left corner. Everything listed above is still in it.
