    So, my problem is that particles from Visual Effect Graph are stretched infinitely on the y axis, as seen in the picture below. This only happens on the android build, on the editor and windows build it works normally. I am using URP, my device is a samsung e7

    Why is this happening? Is vfx graph even compatible with mobile devices?

    Hi there,

    This is a known issue, you can read more on the thread here.

    The VFX Graph's focus has been on HDRP and HDRP-supported platforms, however the team is working this year on full URP (including 2D renderer) support and high-end mobile support. You can check our public roadmap for more details.

    Thanks for the reply. Is there any workaround or should I just wait until the official support?

    If you are just trying things out, I believe on the thread there are some suggested workarounds. For example, I think using a mesh output and manually assigning a quad mesh might not exhibit the same issues you are seeing with the quad (I am not 100% sure though).

    However, if you are working on something you plan on shipping soon, I would recommend waiting until we have had time to do a proper pass on stabilizing mobile as there might be other unknown issues, or switching to the built-in particle system.
