Casting your Quest to a TV or Phone

It’s always more fun to VR with friends! But they can’t be in that headset with you, so what to do?

You can cast what you are seeing to a TV, PC or even to your phone or tablet.

Cast to your PC. There is a new feature that you can use in either the Chrome or Edge web browsers.

  1. Go to http://oculus.com/casting
  2. Put your headset on and select the “Share” option in your main menu (The curved arrow)
  3. Select “Cast” and then select your computer from the list.
  4. You should now be casting everything you see in your headset to your PC in the browser window.

Cast to your phone.

  1. Open your Oculus App on your phone.
  2. Tap the “Cast” icon in the upper right of the app.
  3. Select your quest when it shows up.
  4. You can now watch on your phone or cast your phone to your TV or other device.
