Meta Quest headsets (Quest 2, 3, and Pro) allow users to comfortably watch media or play low-intensity games while lying down by activating a dedicated “Lying Down Mode.” Found under Settings > Experimental > “Use Apps While Lying Down,” this feature enables re-centering the view directly above the user (e.g., on the ceiling).

The Meta Quest Experimental settings page with the Use apps while lying down toggle switched on

Once you have the option enabled and you’re in a comfortable position, hold down your Meta button (Right controller) to adjust your perspective.

Note this might not work for some apps and games.

Enjoy!
