Casting the headset to your phone

You can use VIVE Manager to cast the headset to your phone.

Important:

Screen casting in VIVE Manager requires Android 9 or later, or iOS 12 or later.
Before launching VIVE Manager, turn on your phone's Bluetooth and Wi‍-Fi.
Make sure to pair VIVE Manager with your headset if you haven't done so. For details, see Pairing VIVE Manager with a new headset.

Launch VIVE Manager on your phone.
Tap the Devices tab.
Tip:
- If VIVE Manager is not connected to the headset, tap Connect.
- Because the headset's display must be on for VIVE Manager to cast content, put on the headset before starting the casting session.
In the upper right of the VIVE Manager screen, tap the cast button to start the casting session.
VIVE Manager will display a message showing that it's connecting to the headset.

Tip: If this is your first time casting the headset to an Android phone, you'll need to select Accept in the Invitation to connect dialog box that appears in the headset.

The headset's screen will then be displayed on your phone in landscape orientation.
During the casting session, you can use the following controls:

Tip:
- If the controls don't appear, tap the phone screen to display them.
- Captured screenshots and screen recordings will be saved to your phone's internal storage under Download\ViveManager (Android) or On My iPhone\VIVE Manager (iOS).
