The input buttons are found at the top of the Merge AR/AR Headset, on top of the lens adjusters. With the input buttons, you can interact with VR apps and experiences, without the need for a separate controller. Depending on the app or experience, tapping one or both of the input buttons will pause the experience, or select an item.

Run the app and look for the gear icon in the bottom center of the screen.

• Point your phoneʼs camera to the Merge QR code to switch your profile. 

Thatʼs it! Your device is now set up to use the Merge Headset. If you run an app that does not automatically load the Merge Viewer Profile, look for the gear icon on that app and follow the steps above.
