Mirroring your phone screen to VIVE XR Elite
You can mirror your phone screen to VIVE XR Elite so you can use your phone without taking off
the headset. You can navigate your phone, launch mobile apps, and view photos and videos in
VR.
§ Phone mirroring is only available for Android phones.
§ To use phone mirroring, your phone must support Miracast. You can also stream DRM-
protected content to the headset as long as your phone supports HDCP 2.2 or later.
To check your phone's compatibility, see Phones compatible with VIVE XR Elite on page 49.
§ 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 on page 40.
Before mirroring your phone screen, make sure your headset is connected to VIVE Manager and
your phone screen is on and unlocked. Your phone's Bluetooth and Wi-Fi must also be turned on.
