Hi @Logan10142010!

That's certainly a frustrating issue for your friend! Here is a simple step-by-step guide on controller pairing:
 

  1. Make sure your headset is turned on, then open the Meta Quest mobile app on your phone.
  2. Tap the image of your device in the top left corner of the Meta Quest mobile app.
  3. Tap Headset Settings.
  4. Tap Controllers.
  5. Tap + Pair New Controller.
  6. Choose which controller you'd like to pair.
  7. Press and hold the and buttons on your right controller or and on your left controller until the controller LED blinks and then lights up to finalize the pairing.

If your friend is still experiencing pairing issues, please advise them to reach out to us for further assistance!

Best wishes,
Meta Quest Support
