Have you seen your friend or family member using Immerse and wondered what it's all about?
Maybe you've considered jumping into a class or practice scene using your friend's account (but realized how strictly enforced our Community Guidelines are)?
Do you not feel comfortable giving your credit card information in order to start a trial before previewing what it's like?
✨ We totally get that and this solution is for you! ✨
What is casting?
You can watch someone else while they interact from their own Immerse account inside their headset by casting what they see in VR to a separate device! This allows you to see the VR experience live without any negative repercussions for the account owner from breaking policies they agreed to in our Terms of Service. *Please note that viewing a casted VR experience may result in nausea or dizziness if movements are rapid and erratic.*
Before you cast
Download the Meta Quest mobile app to your phone.
Make sure your phone, computer and headset are on the same Wi-Fi network.
If your Wi-Fi network supports dual band, make sure your devices are on the same frequency.
Make sure the headset and device you're casting to are logged into the same Meta account.
