Logging in as test user requires Facebook?
Trying to get my Oculus Quest 2 paired and into developer mode. I created some test users from my organization's dashboard; when I try to log in as one of these users on my phone, it goes to a screen that says "Please log in with your Facebook account," with no other options presented. My understanding is that test users are not supposed to require a FB account log-in, and we are not supposed to have to create temp or fake FB accounts to use Oculus devices with test user accounts, so I'm stuck. Anyone know what's going on here?

The test accounts created in the developer dashboard automatically create and link a test Facebook account. To log in to Oculus on your phone, you need to log in as the test user in the Facebook app (using the test user email and password) and then when you log into the Oculus app, it will authenticate the test user via the Facebook app. I imagine if you don't have the facebook app installed, it will prompt you to log into facebook in your browser instead.
Fortunately, the Facebook app caches logged in users so if I log out of my personal facebook, I can just tap the test user to log in without re-authenticating. Same thing when switching back to my personal account.
I think this is a rather cumbersome process but at least the Quest 2 now supports account switching so you can have a test user as an alternate profile on your headset that you can switch in and out of.
All this being said, I've been experiencing some strange issues with my test user account in our app. For example, any changes I make to the oculus avatar on my test account do not save so it is permanently a gray blob.
