Installing the .apk to the Oculus Quest

Tags: OculusQuest

So, Unity has finished building your project into a .apk file for the Oculus Quest. What now?

If you've installed Oculus Developer Hub, and your Oculus Quest is connected to your pc, you should be able to drag and drop the .apk file onto the locally installed apps section and ODH should install it for you.

If this gives you an error though, you can use adb (android debug bridge) directly to install the app.

First though, check that the previous development version of your app has been uninstalled from the Quest. Then, locate the directory that contains adb (the root Unity directory can be found in Unity's settings): <Unity dir>\Data\PlaybackEngines§AndroidPlayer\SDK\platform-tools\.

Once you're in this directory, press Shift+RightClick and select Launch PowerShell window here. Then, you can use ./adb devices to check the Quest is connected, and ./adb install <path_to_apk> to install your apk!
