You can cast an Oculus Quest to your TV if it has a built-in casting ability or you can attach a Chromecast device to share your view in VR.

• You can cast Oculus Quest to your TV if it has a built-in casting ability or you can attach a Chromecast device to share your view in VR.
• You can enable casting from the Oculus app on your phone or from the headset.
• Here's how to enable casting from your Quest to a TV in both ways.

Virtual reality can sometimes feel like a solitary experience, self-contained within a headset. But your Oculus Quest (and Quest 2 ) lets you cast what you see to a television, where anyone else can see what you are seeing. Casting is straightforward, and you can use any TV with a built-in Chromecast app or a Chromecast device that's plugged into the TV.

2. Turn on the Oculus Quest headset and the TV.

3. Start the Oculus app on your phone.

4. Tap the Cast icon at the top right of the screen - it's the one shaped like a headset with Wi-Fi waves.

6. The app should have selected your headset in the top "Cast From" section. If there's more than one headset listed, be sure you select your headset.

7. In the "Cast To" section, tap your TV or Chromecast device. If it doesn't appear, make sure your TV is on, the Chromecast is enabled, and then tap "Tap to search for other devices."

Select your TV and tap "Start." If it doesn't appear, tap to search for your TV again. Dave Johnson/Business Insider

8. At the bottom of the screen, tap "Start." The Quest's display will be cast to the TV.
