Stuck on Initial Setup - Missing Right Controller - Need Bypass

Hi,

I'm trying to set up my Meta Quest but I only have the Left Controller. The mobile app won't let me skip the 'Pair Right Controller' screen, and I'm stuck in a loop. I want to use the headset with Hand Tracking or just the left controller.

Is there any way for support to manually bypass the NUX/Setup for my device

    What steve_40​ said, you need both controller.

    But you could borrow a controller from a friend just for the setup of the Quest and only use handtracking or your left controller afterwards.
