Use Meta’s Horizon platform (formerly Work Meta) to distribute Vrex to your managed Quest headsets.

Overview

Meta Horizon Managed Devices lets you:

  • Deploy Vrex Go to your device fleet
  • Control which apps are available on managed headsets
  • Separate beta and production versions
  • Manage devices remotely

Prerequisites

  • Admin access to your Meta Work Account
  • Managed Quest headsets enrolled in your organization
  • Vrex Go package URL (provided by your Vrex Customer Success Manager)

Best Practices

Separate Beta and Production

If you’re testing new Vrex versions:

  1. Create a separate app entry for beta builds
  2. Use a different icon (e.g., orange for beta, green for production)
  3. Distribute beta to a test device group only

Device Groups

Organize headsets by:

  • Department or team
  • Office location
  • Use case (training, design review, client demos)

This lets you roll out updates gradually and target specific users.

Network Considerations

Managed devices still need network access to Vrex services. See Network Requirements for firewall configuration.
