Install instructions

To install an unknown app on your Oculus Quest 1, Quest 2, or Quest 3, you need to sideload the app. Sideloading allows you to install apps that are not available on the Oculus Store. Here are the steps to do this:

Prerequisites

  1. Developer Account: You need an Oculus developer account to enable developer mode on your device. You can sign up for one here.
  2. Oculus App on Phone: Make sure you have the Oculus app installed on your phone and that it is linked to your Oculus device.
  3. SideQuest: Download and install SideQuest on your computer from SideQuest.

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Enable Developer Mode

  1. Create an Organization: Log in to the Oculus developer dashboard with your Oculus account and create an organization.
    • Go to Oculus Dashboard.
    • Create an organization if you haven't already.
  2. Enable Developer Mode:
    • Open the Oculus app on your phone.
    • Go to "Settings" and select your Oculus device.
    • Tap on "More Settings" and select "Developer Mode."
    • Toggle the switch to turn on Developer Mode.

2. Install SideQuest

  1. Download SideQuest: Go to SideQuest and download the installer for your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux).
  2. Install SideQuest: Run the installer and follow the on-screen instructions to install SideQuest on your computer.

3. Connect Your Oculus Quest to Your Computer

  1. Connect via USB: Use a USB-C cable to connect your Oculus Quest to your computer. Make sure the headset is powered on.
  2. Allow USB Debugging:
    • Put on your headset and you should see a prompt asking you to "Allow USB debugging."
    • Select "Always allow from this computer" and then click "OK."

4. Sideloading the App

  1. Open SideQuest: Launch the SideQuest application on your computer.
  2. Ensure Device Connection: In the top left corner of SideQuest, you should see a green dot indicating that your Oculus device is connected.
  3. Install the APK:
    • Download the APK file of the app you want to install.
    • In SideQuest, click on the folder icon in the top right to open the "Install APK file from folder on computer" option.
    • Select the APK file you downloaded.
    • SideQuest will then install the APK onto your Oculus Quest.
  4. Verify Installation:
    • Once installed, you can put on your Oculus Quest headset.
    • Navigate to "Apps" and select the dropdown to switch from "All" to "Unknown Sources."
    • You should see the app you just installed listed there. Select it to launch.

Additional Tips

  • ADB Commands: If you are familiar with ADB (Android Debug Bridge), you can use it to sideload apps directly from the command line.
  • Troubleshooting: If the app doesn't appear, ensure that you have allowed USB debugging and that your Oculus device is properly connected to your computer.

By following these steps, you can sideload unknown apps onto your Oculus Quest 1, 2, or 3. This allows you to explore and use apps beyond those available in the Oculus Store.
