Meta Quest 3, Meta Quest 3S and Meta Quest Pro let you record and cast your surroundings through mixed reality. This means that when you choose to you can combine your real environment with virtual elements. This feature also allows you to share your mixed reality experience with others across different social platforms like Instagram or Facebook.

Some tips to help you and those around you feel comfortable when you’re recording or casting your mixed reality experience include:

  • The first time you turn on mixed reality, a message will appear with important reminders about how to protect the privacy of yourself and others.
  • Let the people around you know that you will be using the headset to cast or record your mixed reality experience and request their permission before including them in a recording.
  • Let the people around you or captured in your mixed reality experience know if you plan to share your image or recording to a social platform or anywhere else online.
  • When you turn on passthrough on Meta Quest Pro, your headset will show a blue LED light to indicate to bystanders that the passthrough cameras are active.
  • When you are recording, casting, or livestreaming with passthrough on Meta Quest 3 or Meta Quest 3S, your headset will show blinking white light to indicate to bystanders that the passthrough cameras are active.
