If you're setting up Guardian with your Quest for the first time, follow the on-screen instructions.
Guardian lets you create boundaries in VR that appear when you get too close to the edge of your play area. When setting up Guardian, your play area will show as one of these sizes:
The Oculus Quest Touch controllers are a pair of tracked controllers that give you hand presence—the feeling that your virtual hands are actually your own. Touch controllers feature traditional action buttons, thumb-sticks and analog triggers that add familiarity to new experiences.
You can use your controller to interact with apps and games, using the buttons on your controller to do the following:
Note: Individual apps may include their own tutorials for how to use the buttons on your Oculus Touch controllers in each VR experience.
Your Oculus Quest needs to be connected to a Wi-Fi network to use and access most features and content.
To change the Wi-Fi network your Oculus Quest is connected to from your Oculus Quest Headset:
Whenever you use your Quest you'll set up a Guardian boundary that marks the edges of your play area. This boundary ensures you don't bump into anything and have a safe area to play in. That being said, it is very easy to forget that you're blindfolded to the real world. If you're playing at home, for example, it is a good idea to warn other people that you'll be going into VR before you go in and that they know your play area boundaries too. Also be careful of pets — if you have a particularly affectionate animal and plan to play a pretty active VR game, it might be a good idea to keep them in a separate room until you're done playing.
It may help to take regular breaks as often as every 20 minutes. Many games on Quest tend to be fairly comfortable, but some games can simulate movement in ways which might lead some people to feel queasy. If you do start to feel queasy, though, you should stop immediately. Over time with regular use, some people may become more adjusted to being in VR but others may not, so always pay attention to what your body is telling you and don't try to "push through" any feelings of discomfort. If you do feel uncomfortable it can help to take a break, drink some water, eat something, get good sleep and try VR again when you are ready.
Sunlight can cause permanent damage to the lenses, therefore please keep the headset away from windows and don't use it outside.
