Answered by Tom Adger

To enable Bluetooth on your Oculus Quest 2, you can follow these steps:

1. Begin by turning on your Oculus Quest 2 headset if it isn’t already on. You can do this by pressing and holding the power button located on the right side of the headset until it powers on.

2. Once your headset is powered on, put it on and navigate to the Settings menu. To access the Settings, look towards the bottom right of the Oculus home screen and you’ll see a small gear icon. Use the Oculus controller to select the gear icon and open the Settings menu.

3. In the Settings menu, scroll down and find the option labeled “Experimental Features.” This option is usually located towards the bottom of the list. Select it by pointing at it with your Oculus controller and pressing the trigger button to confirm your selection.

4. Within the Experimental Features section, you will see various options. Look for the option labeled “Pair” under the Bluetooth pairing section. This option allows you to enable Bluetooth connectivity on your Oculus Quest 2. Select the “Pair” option by pointing at it with your controller and pressing the trigger button.

5. After selecting the “Pair” option, your Oculus Quest 2 will search for available Bluetooth devices to pair with. Make sure the device you want to connect to is in pairing mode and discoverable. Follow the instructions specific to your device to enable pairing mode if needed.

6. Once your Oculus Quest 2 detects the device you want to pair with, it will display it on the screen. Select the device by pointing at it with your controller and pressing the trigger button. If prompted, follow any additional on-screen instructions to complete the pairing process.

7. Once the pairing is successful, your Oculus Quest 2 will be connected to the Bluetooth device, allowing you to use it for audio, input, or other compatible features.

It’s important to note that enabling Bluetooth on your Oculus Quest 2 is an experimental feature, meaning it may not be fully optimized or supported by all devices. If you experience any issues or limitations, you can try troubleshooting or reaching out to Oculus support for further assistance.

I hope this guide helps you enable Bluetooth on your Oculus Quest 2 and successfully pair it with your desired device. Enjoy your VR experience!
