[@snowfartvr9838]

It's turned red when it says installing

[@sir_kingsley]

When i plug the usb c cable into my headset no permission tabs come up

[@sidequestvr]

@@sir_kingsley There could be several reasons for it. Ensure you created an organization, enabled the dev mode and installed the drivers. Check if your dev account is verified, you'll need to add your phone and credit card for that.

[@wenagaderaider9635]

@@snowfartvr9838 same I don't know how to do it

Hey, so I get the apps installed I have developer mode and all that stuff enabled, but it won't let install from unknown sources.

[@ANTEDITTHAT]

THANKS

[@Zamasu_Onlyfans]

I really appreciate this, having not only an app lab type category to search for those games. But also having all of these other games not available on the oculus store is fantastic. Thank you guys.

Enjoy!

[@Crystal_629]

It’s fine I’m getting an android soon

[@m00nlessVR]

So I've been wondering how to get this and this helped me but the problem is that I have to use my mom's phone because side quest doesn't work on newer versions of android like my google pixel 7

[@ack0x06]

As always an excellent and very thorough video, thank you! It's really a shame that the Quest 2 does not allow to connect Sidequest witeessly after a restart unless you connect it with a cable and enable wireless again. I want to keep the usb-c port on my quest 2 healthy by not replugging cables all the time, one reason I am so happy with my headstrap with external battery packs.

[@MrGoofyVR11]

Thank you so much it was super easy ((i have dropped a like)

[@teebee4749]

Awesome

[@user-gk8ub9ok7q]

It won’t let me turn it on it just says debug mode

I wish physics playground was k On the official app lab website

"this app is not available for your device because it was made for an older version of Android"

Try this version: sdq.st/mobile

[@Crystal_629]

Hi☻

[@joshuaswindle8398]

Could you please make sidequest available for newer mobile phones

[@uraveragewiteguy]

Ong

[@ImTheSkibidi]

It’s not in the google store

It say you may need to accept a prompt but i don’t know how

[@gabrielschatz1568]

On my sidequest app there are no games

[@SimzGamez]

[@Nikodem_Grochowski]

Anyone can help me? I try to download lit and physic 0layground but after downloand ans instalation it shows error ans i cant restart it

[@user-vj7lw5ij2v]

Bây giờ tôi không thể mở app đã cài đặt. Bạn đã có cách nào cho nó hoạt động không ? Bây giờ mỗi lần sử dụng ứng dụng cài đặt tôi phải dùng máy tính khởi động nó. Video của bạn đã hơn 1 năm. Bây giờ meta đã cập nhập phiên bản mới, nó ko còn tác dụng nữa.

[@mpv756]

OMFG. #1 I had no idea about SideQuest. I just got it and love it. My friend had said something about being able to change the resolution in the Quest 2. So I just found out about the Developer mode and thought maybe once that is turned on the option would be available but that is not the case. Along my journey I saw something about SideQuest and it caught my eye. I cannot tell you how f^$&*in' excited I am right now! Not only a whole new arsenal of games but so much more. I usually don't comment but I have to say this was the most useful and easy to follow along setup I have ever seen in my life. I would absolutely hate to read through that process on a website. Thank you sooooo much! Not only for this tutorial but for existing and doing what u do!!! I may need to call out of work cough cough...

[@sidequestvr]

We're glad your enjoying our app! Have fun calling out of work 😉

[@blackhat856]

Yeah …she’s gorgeous buddy boy

[@remoa9142]

In 2022 oculus thinking about wireless connection. Good

[@interdimensionalcat]

[@Cherubs.cutely]

What does it mean by “put on your headset and sign into the developer account for the development”?

[@austin0427]

I don't see the settings thing and expand settings and developer mode someone please help

[@TTHGHOST]

It’s says the important thing but won’t show the allow permission on the android

[@justinwhitehead7767]

Could you please give link to your video focusing on tools and options in side quest mobile app please?

[@sidequestvr]

Hi! Tools/settings on SIdeQuest are currently unstable, until then we halt the production of the video explainer. Stay tuned!

[@PepperThePotato]

[@cringefest1207]

How to install APK to my headset

[@raphaelwaked272]

1 problem is the app is too old of a version for me to download from google play but there is an easy fix as downloading it as an apk. just a recommendation, you need to update the app to a higher version which will help a lot if some people didn't know abt apk's

[@dictinogarcia7876]

can you show me how to do this?

[@southerncowpoke1207]

How do you do that?

[@jessehirsch8048]

My quest 2 doesnt pop up like that when you click apps

I did everything, step by step and I still can't open dev mode

[@sidequestvr]

Do you mean the developer option doesn't show up for you in the app? Did you make sure that you verified your identity when you created the organization? It may ask you for a credit card info to make sure you are a person and not a robot. Here is an updated PC tutorial, but the organization creation step is the same there - kzbin.info/www/bejne/rX_OpmRvfdFsetksi=QKDXfvAy53oXRMKZ&t=160 Here's
