Safe browsing in Oculus Browser

Safe browsing in Oculus Browser is powered by Google Safe Browsing. When enabled, safe browsing may protect users from visiting websites that are suspected to be potentially dangerous. This includes websites that may trick users into installing unwanted software or revealing personal information.

Enabling Safe Browsing doesn’t guarantee identification and prevention of all dangerous websites. Some risky sites may not be identified, and some safe websites may be misidentified as risky. You can learn more by viewing these informational websites about harmful web content:

  • Social engineering (phishing)
  • Malware
  • Unwanted software

To turn safe browsing in Oculus Browser on or off:

  1. Press on your right Touch controller to go to the universal menu.
  2. Select to go to the Apps menu, then select Browser.
  3. Select in the top right corner, then select Settings.
  4. From the Privacy and Security tab, select the toggle next to Enable safe browsing to turn safe browsing on or off.
