Meta Quest 3 initial setup and multiple family accounts
Hi,
I know the answer may already be in the forum in some form based on what I've already read but there are so many permutations on this issue I want to be sure I get the right answer for my specific situation.
My son setup his quest 3 with his meta account. I presume this makes him the "admin" for this device. Since then I have setup my own account and set it as a supervisor/parent account. It's not clear if my son remains the 'admin' for this headset or if it's me now that I'm supervising his account.
1st question: is it likely that my son is still admin on this headset?
We've both been able to log in and use the headset with both our accounts.
2nd question: i want to buy a new app (bonelab) that my son wants. Should I purchase this through his (assuming he is still the admin) account or my account? I want to ensure we are both able to play the game on the headset. Some of my reading indicates I should use the admin account and enable app sharing to be able to do this? Is this correct?
3rd question: can I change my account to be the "admin" account, rather than my son's, so i can manage and share all future purchases?
Thank you. I appreciate that this is a common issue with plenty of discussions on this topic but really don't want to accidently end up in some of the twisted account situations I've read about already.
Hi there, RKTECT79! It's important to us to make sure our user's have all the information they'll need for a successful VR gaming experience, so we'd love to provide some insight! Just to let you know, the admin account on the headset would be the first account the headset was set up and paired to. Any account logged into on the headset after that first account would be a secondary account. To change admin accounts, you can factory reset the headset, then log into and pair your own account on the headset first. Also, if the admin account enables app sharing, the secondary account will have access to any purchased games on the admin account. For more information about multiple accounts on the headset, please check out this article and don't hesitate to ask us!
