You can add 3 profiles to your device.

Before adding an additional Meta Horizon profile to your Meta Quest headset, the new profile needs to have a Meta account.

Add profiles to your Meta Quest

To add additional profiles to your Meta Quest:

  1. Press Meta button or Oculus button on your right controller to open the universal menu.
  2. Select the clock on the left side of the universal menu to open Quick settings.
  3. Select Settings in the top right, then select Profiles.
  4. Enter the email address of the person you’d like to add, then select Send Link.

The link will expire in 15 minutes after it's sent, so make sure they're ready to accept the email or message.

How do additional profiles work?

Additional profiles will be able to install and use apps that they have purchased from the Meta Horizon Store, as well as apps purchased by the device owner if App Sharing is turned on.

Additional profiles can save their own app progress, media files and make use of social platform features like groups, Leaderboards and Achievements, as well as creating and customizing their own avatar. Apps installed by additional profiles won’t take up extra storage space on the device if the device owner already has the app installed.

If your device contains additional profiles, you’ll be shown a profile switcher on device start up.

Privacy and security

Each profile on a device has its own information stored separately. Profiles on a device do not have access to the information stored on other profiles, including:

  • Saved passwords
  • Social features like Messaging, Parties and the Horizon Worlds app
  • Payment information
  • In-game progress
  • High scores
  • In-app settings

Each profile can create their own passcode to protect their information.
