The ManageXR Home Screen is a customizable app launcher for your end-users, enabling you to streamline the user experience and lock a device to your approved applications.

💡The Home Screen acts as a kiosk mode and does not allow users to exit without the use of an admin pin.

Home Screen Features

On the bottom of the Home Screen, you will see a toolbar containing various information and settings.

From left to right, you will see:

  • Time & Date

  • Headset Battery Health

  • Left and Right Controller Battery Health

  • WiFi Settings

  • Casting

  • Boundary Setup

  • Controller Settings (Pico G2, Neo 2, Neo 3)

  • Bluetooth

  • Admin Settings

Let's look at each of the setting options and their function within the ManageXR Home Screen.

Hand Tracking - Meta Quest Devices Only

🛑This feature is in beta and is not officially supported on the ManageXR Home Screen. Results may vary from firmware version to firmware version.

To set up Hand Tracking on the ManageXR Home Screen for Oculus devices:

  1. Go to the Oculus settings

  2. Click on Movement Tracking

  3. Toggle on Hand Tracking

⚠️Important: To set up Hand Tracking, your device must not have Kiosk Mode/Home Screen enabled in ManageXR. Here's a guide to temporarily disabling kiosk mode.

After turning on Hand Tracking for the first time, a brief Oculus tutorial will launch, and you will now be able to use Hand Tracking on the ManageXR Home Screen. Check out Meta's Getting Started with Hand Tracking guide to see a list of gestures and other helpful information.
