Hello, please help. I bought the quest 3 as a stand alone. But nothing is showing in the store app. I have software in my pc oculus app, but no way to transfer the software to the quest 3. I've had this unit for over 2 months and still have to be tethered to a PC. How do I transfer the software to my headset that I bought and downloaded?
You can't just transfer software from the PC app onto your headset. The PC app shows PC games for the older Rift headsets, which are playable on Quest via the PC. Look into Crossbuy, which entitles you to free copies of some Quest games if you own the same title on PCVR.
Hi there, @Xidax6! Thanks for reaching out to the community. We love the versatility of both our PCVR and Standalone capabilities, so we'd be happy to provide some context for how those work!
It is true that we cannot transfer PC games and apps from the PC library to the headset library, as they each have their own format to store that type of software. We have some support articles that cover managing these libraries listed below:
To add to what @user_901925786032222 said, cross-buy means that you can buy a PCVR version and a standalone version of the same game, but they are two separate files that do not interact. Please let us know if there is any additional information or assistance we can provide!

My experience with the Quest 3 is the total opposite. I find the whole software stack much more solid than the average consumers products. It's to the point it changed my perception of Meta - which was mostly based on Facebook, a software app that I consider a textbook example of what NOT to do.
A highly subjective topic here.
