Hi there!

Yes, you can sideload apps like SideQuest onto a secondary account on the Quest 2 using ADB. Here's how you can do it:

Steps to Install an APK for a Secondary Account via ADB

  1. Ensure Developer Mode is Enabled

    • On the primary account, use the Meta Quest app to enable Developer Mode under Devices > Developer Options.
  2. Install ADB Tools

  3. Connect Your Quest 2

    • Use a USB cable to connect your Quest 2 to your computer.
    • Make sure to accept the "Allow USB Debugging" prompt on the headset.
  4. Identify the Secondary Account

    • Use this ADB command to list all users on the Quest:
      adb shell pm list users
      
      Identify the user ID for the secondary account (e.g., UserInfo{11:Jojostudio:410}).
  5. Install the APK

    • Run the following command, replacing with the secondary account's ID and with the path to the SideQuest APK:
      adb install --user  
      
  6. Download the SideQuest APK

  7. Verify Installation

    • Check if the APK was installed for the secondary account:
      adb shell pm list packages --user
