Enabling developer mode on your VR device is an essential preparatory step for many developer-related activities, including sideloading, debugging inside the browser over USB, capturing screenshots and videos remotely, and more.

Oculus Go / Quest

Enable Developer Mode via the Oculus companion app on your phone. Use the same phone that you used to initially set up the Oculus Go with.

Huawei VR

Enable developer mode on the Huawei Phone using the regular method for Android:

  1. Open Settings -> About Phone
  2. Click Build number a few times until Developer Option is enabled.

After that, sideloading apps via ADB should be possible.
