Oculess is a sideloaded Android app for Oculus Quest headsets that removes account requirements, disables telemetry apps, and enables background audio for all apps. It is written in Kotlin and distributed as an APK, with some features requiring device-owner setup via ADB.

Use cases

  • disable telemetry on oculus quest
  • use quest without a facebook account
  • play spotify in background on quest
  • log out of oculus account
  • run discord in background while gaming on quest

When to choose

  • you want to block Meta telemetry apps on a Quest headset
  • you need background audio from sideloaded apps like Discord or Spotify
  • you want to remove or avoid account requirements on older Quest firmware

When to avoid

  • you just want background audio - LightningLauncher is a simpler alternative
  • you are on newer Quest firmware where much functionality no longer works or requires device owner
  • you need Spotify login, which no longer works on Quest
