What is QGO (Quest Games Optimizer)?
Quest Games Optimizer (QGO) is an optimization application and advanced launcher for Meta Quest headsets, developed by French developer Anagan79. It provides access to fine-tuned settings for resolution, framerate, and CPU/GPU performance, which are completely inaccessible from the official Meta interface.

The result: over 150,000 users in 150+ countries and a library of 1,600+ optimized and tested games. QGO is now recognized as the essential tool for the Meta Quest community, praised by VR media, developers, and content creators worldwide.

QGO vs SideQuest: What are the differences?
SideQuest is often the first tool for Meta Quest users, but QGO goes much further:
| Feature | SideQuest | QGO |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-tested game optimizations | ❌ | ✅ 1,600+ games |
| Works without a PC | ❌ | ✅ |
| 4K 100 Mbps recording | ❌ | ✅ |
| Game data backup | ❌ | ✅ |
| Full customizable launcher | Basic | ✅ |
| Integrated ADB terminal | ❌ | ✅ |
The decisive advantage of QGO: everything is done directly from the headset, autonomously, without any PC manipulation.
