Make sure your Meta Quest 3, Smart TV, and smartphone are all on the same WiFi network. Also, double-check that you’ve got the Meta Quest app installed on your phone.

Step 2: Phone Meets TV

It’s mirroring time! Most phones have a “Cast” feature (Android) or “AirPlay” (iPhone) built right in. Just open up your phone’s settings and look for it.
