There are plenty of people that have heard about the possibilities of adult virtual reality, but that also don’t know how to watch VR porn on their smartphone-based (GearVR, Daydream, Cardboard), or standalone (eg. Oculus GO, Quest, Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, PSVR and Mixed Reality) headset.

Never fear though, we’re here with complete instructions on how to watch the best VR porn on any headset.

There’s a certain commonality to watching virtual reality porn whatever the headset, but the Google Cardboard, Daydream and Samsung Gear VR headsets are some of the most popular out there, amassing hundreds of millions of units sold.

Likewise, with the cost of standalone units like the Oculus GO coming down over time (and the Oculus Quest), more and more people are trying VR porn for the first time. But how exactly you achieve that varies a little but according to your headset, so we’ve made things simple for you.

VR Porn-Specific Tips for the Best Experience 

  • Ensure Privacy: When enjoying VR porn, ensure you are in a comfortable, private space, free from interruptions. We’re assuming most people would prefer not to be caught with their pants down, literally.
  • Select High-Quality Porn Videos: To truly immerse yourself in the experience, opt for VR porn videos with the highest resolution your device (and site) supports. Not all studios have the same superior production values as our top 10 recommendations. Remember, the better the video quality, the more realistic the experience!
  • Take Regular Breaks: Despite its allure, VR porn can be quite intensive. So, it’s essential to take regular breaks to avoid feeling disoriented or uncomfortable. Plus, who doesn’t appreciate a little anticipation?

Positioning your headset for optimal viewing 

Getting the headset positioned correctly from the start can making watching VR porn a whole lot less frustrating. Here are some tips: 

  • Ensure the back strap is situated low on the back of your head.
  • Adjust the side straps to achieve a comfortable but firm fit.
  • Use the on-device button to adjust the lens distance to achieve the clearest view.

Watch VR Porn on iPhone

It’s no secret that Apple is no fan of any deemed ‘adult’ – and as a result, trying to watch VR porn on iPhone is a more restricted experience, but that doesn’t mean it’s all that hard.

Like any other smartphone-based headset, the iPhone only needs a VR player app in order to get you into the VR porn action. Here, the options are a little different – though Littlstar is a solid choice for iOS users.

If you want an alternate choice of VR player app with a few more features, like slow-motion and 2x speed, then check out MobileVR Station instead.

Both just require downloading content of your choice, navigating to the download location folder within your VR player app and choosing what you want to watch. MobileVR Station isn’t entirely free though if you want all the features.

Watch VR Porn on an Android headset

Watching VR porn on your Android headset can be an immersive experience. Let’s break it down step by step to make sure you’re getting the most out of your device. Remember, this is a judgment-free zone, so let’s dive right in. 

What you’ll need 

  • A VR headset compatible with your Android device
  • An Internet connection
  • A media player that supports VR playback (e.g., Skybox, VRTV)

Steps 

  1. Check your VR headset compatibility: Make sure your VR headset is compatible with your Android device. You can usually find this information on the manufacturer’s website.
  2. Download a VR media player: You’ll need a media player that supports VR playback. Skybox and VRTV are two popular choices.
  3. Find your content: Choose a trusted site that offers VR porn. Always ensure that the site respects your privacy and security.
  4. Download the video: Once you’ve chosen your video, download it to your phone. Remember, these files can be large, so make sure you have enough storage space.
  5. Watch your video: Open your downloaded video in your VR media player and put on your headset. You’re all set!

Note: You might want to ensure you’re using a secure network when downloading adult content. Your privacy is important.

Watch VR Porn on GearVR

To watch VR porn on a Samsung Gear VR headset is a little bit more of a locked down experience than any other regular Android phone, but it’s not a painful process.

The first thing you’ll need to do is requires you to install the Samsung VR media player app. If it’s not available in your country, you can install a VPN app, choose a location in the US, and then download the app from within the Oculus Store app on your phone, or just choose a different VR player app.

Once all that is done, you just need to create a folder in the root directory of your phone or SD card called /MilkVR – the app used to be called Samsung Milk VR, for some reason. While third-party apps often offer additional features, Samsung VR has media player support, which means you can stream VR scenes saved locally from a server using an app like Plex.

Of course, as with the other devices and headsets listed above, there’s also the option of streaming directly using the Samsung Internet browser from the Oculus Store.

It’s no secret that Apple is no fan of any deemed ‘adult’ – and as a result, trying to watch VR porn on iPhone is a more restricted experience, but that doesn’t mean it’s all that hard.

Like any other smartphone-based headset, the iPhone only needs a VR player app in order to get you into the VR porn action. Here, the options are a little different – though Littlstar is a solid choice for iOS users.

28/03/2023 – Update

LittlStar was rebranded and refocused on streaming TV since this article was written, a better suggestion is below.

If you want an alternate choice of VR player app with a few more features, like slow-motion and 2x speed, then check out MobileVR Station instead, which has a rating of 4.3 out of 5 currently on the app store.

Both just require downloading content of your choice, navigating to the download location folder within your VR player app and choosing what you want to watch. MobileVR Station isn’t entirely free though if you want all the features.

Watch VR Porn on Oculus Quest 2

So, you have an Oculus Quest or Quest 2 and you’re wondering how to watch VR porn on it? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered.

Before we get started, we should also point out that, as with all the other headsets on this page, sites like POVR, VRBangers, VRPorn.com and VirtualRealPorn have excellent in-built viewing options that don’t require downloads.

As ever, if you want the highest quality, and best overall VR porn experience, you’ll need to download the highest resolution you can play. Currently, that’s VRBangers’ 12K scenes.

  1. First up, you’ll need to enable Developer Mode. To do this, head to the Oculus app on your smartphone. Tap ‘Settings’, find your Oculus Quest 2 in ‘Paired Devices’, and tap ‘More Settings’. Here, you’ll find ‘Developer Mode’. Switch it on and you’re one step closer.
  2. Next, install SideQuest on your PC. This application will allow you to sideload adult content onto your Oculus Quest 2. You can download it from the official SideQuest website. Follow their step-by-step guide to install and set it up.
  3. Once SideQuest is installed, it’s time to download the VR porn content. There are several websites offering VR adult content – make sure to choose a reliable one. Download the videos you want to watch.
  4. Now, you need to transfer the downloaded content to your Oculus Quest 2. Connect your headset to your PC using a USB-C cable, open SideQuest, and click on ‘Manage Files on Quest’. Navigate to the ‘Movies’ folder and drag your downloaded videos into it.
  5. Finally, put on your Oculus Quest 2, navigate to the ‘TV’ app, and click on ‘Unknown Sources’. You will find your downloaded videos here. Just click on one, sit back and enjoy!

Watch VR porn on a Valve Index

The Valve Index is quite the gaming beast! But it’s also a powerhouse for viewing VR porn. Here’s a simple guide to help you get started:

Preparing Your Valve Index 

  • Ensure that your headset is properly connected to your PC.
  • Make sure you have the latest version of the SteamVR software installed.
  • Adjust the IPD (Interpupillary Distance) on your headset for a clear, comfortable view.

Playing the Content 

After you’ve downloaded or chosen your VR porn video, the next step is playing it.

  1. Open the video file with a VR video player. There are several VR video players available, such as DeoVR, Whirligig, or even VLC with a VR plugin.
  2. Once the player is open, select the ‘VR Mode’ and choose the ‘SteamVR’ option, if available.
  3. Finally, put on your Valve Index headset and enjoy!

Watch VR Porn on Oculus GO

Ok, so you shelled out a bit more than any old smartphone headset viewer, and for that you get a better quality experience when you want to watch VR porn on the Oculus GO or Oculus Rift headsets.

The exact settings you need to use to watch VR porn on the Oculus GO headset may vary depending on where you subscribe, but there’s a general method that applies to all sites if you want to download videos and play them back.

On sites that support direct streaming – BaDoinkVR and VirtualRealPorn stand out in mind particularly – you can just fire up the Oculus browser (in a private window if that’s a concern), log in to your chosen VR porn site (don’t forget to check out our ultimate VR porn roundup to help you make that decision) and select a scene.

Whichever site you’re on, when you press play on the video, it’s loaded in the Oculus browser player in the same way, and when fully loaded you can watch it in any of the normal Oculus viewing scenarios (no effect, in a cinema, etc).

If you want to download, however, you’ll want to install SkyBox on your headset for the most convenient library options and more reliable playback than the Oculus viewer.

You can then tweak the settings according to the type of VR mode required, eg. 360-VR, 180-degree side-by-side, etc. according to the format of the scene you’re trying to watch.

It’s worth keeping in mind that if you’re downloading the movies straight to the headset storage directly via the Oculus browser, you can’t navigate away from the browser to other apps while the download is still ongoing – if you do, you’ll need to start the download again.

Watch VR Porn on Oculus Rift

To watch VR porn on an Oculus Rift headset is pretty simple, and requires the same basic steps as every other method outlined here. In this case, that’s ensuring your PC and Oculus environment is all set up and then installing a media player app capable of playing back your VR porn videos.

Many people use WhirligigDEOVR or AutoplayVR to watch on Oculus headsets, but BaDoinkVR also has its own player you can install if you prefer. Or again, like above, you could use the SkyBox app instead.

28/03/2023 – Update

AutoplayVR now redirects to a domain landing page, better suggestions for watching on Rift headsets are above and below.

VRBangers also has an app that works with Rift headsets too. You can hack it together to get it to run on the Oculus GO, but it’s not really worth the effort.

The SEXLIKEREAL app is also available for Oculus Rift, which makes things pretty damn simple.

Watch VR Porn on HTC Vive

Watching VR porn you can find on your HTC Vive is almost the same setup as with the Oculus, including that Whirligig, and DEO VR are supported here too.

You also have the option of Open VR Player and Virtual Desktop, both of which have their own fans. And yet again, SkyBox is an option.

Once you’ve got your chosen media player app installed, you just need to navigate to your downloaded files and start watching. How you navigate between videos depends on which VR app you installed.

The SEXLIKEREAL and Playa apps are also available for HTC Vive users, which makes things pretty damn convenient.

Watch VR porn on HTC Vive 2

So, you’ve got your HTC Vive 2 and you’re ready to dip your toes into the immersive world of VR porn… but you’re not sure where to start? No worries!

Here’s your step-by-step guide: 

  1. Access a VR porn website: First off, you’ll need to find a suitable VR porn site. We’ve covered loads in this post, so just choose based on your own preferences and budget.
  2. Download the video: Once you’ve chosen your video, you’ll need to download it. Most VR porn videos are quite large due to their high definition, so ensure your device has enough storage space.
  3. Move the video to the correct folder: After the video has been downloaded, you will need to move it to the ‘SteamVR’ folder on your computer. This is essential for your Vive to locate and play the video correctly.
  4. Launch SteamVR: With the video in the correct location, it’s time to launch your SteamVR application. If you don’t have this installed, you can download it from the Steam website.
  5. Start the video: Navigate to your video within the SteamVR application and select it to start watching. Remember to strap on your Vive headset first!

 You can also install the SEXLIKEREAL or Playa’ apps for even easier viewing.

Watch VR Porn on PSVR (PlayStation)

Watching PSVR porn on the PlayStation 4 VR is just as simple as any other device, except that you need to download each scene and sideload them onto your PlayStation 4 (or store them on external connected storage).

Important note relevant for PSVR porn: You can’t stream VR directly, so you can disregard the info about streaming in the roundup above. You also don’t get teledildonic support.

The most reliable way of watching VR porn on PSVR  is via LittlStar media player apps (available from the PlayStation Store), rather than using the default PlayStation Media Player as it doesn’t support the full range of VR options the sites in this list provide.

If you’re enjoying this article, you’ll probably like the next one too:

Watch VR Porn on a Windows Mixed Reality (WMR) Headset

Windows Mixed Reality headsets are very much the outlier in this group of different headsets, as they work on a different basis to full VR headsets. Nonetheless, that doesn’t mean you need to miss out on the XXX adult action entirely.

So, if you want to stream, you can just fire up your browser and navigate to your site of choice, then start streaming to your heart’s content. It’s not going to be the best of experiences though, most likely. You might also need to grab this Edge viewer extension too.

Instead, for that, you’ll want to go through roughly the same steps as many of the other headsets listed here, in that you’ll want to download the scenes first, or stream them from local storage.

However, you’ll first want to set up a Steam account for your Windows Mixed Reality headset if you don’t have one already. If you do, you can just download the SteamVR media player app, and watch the VR porn scenes that way. Also, you probably guessed by now…SkyBox is an option here too.

If, however, you want teledildonic support included with your WMR VR porn experience, you’ll need to use VirtualRealPlayer (VirtualRealPorn‘s own player).
