An app that can stream your PC desktop into an Oculus Quest headset is facing resistance from Facebook over how the program also provides access to Valve's SteamVR platform.

The app is called Virtual Desktop and until recently, it included an experimental feature to stream games from a SteamVR-enabled PC to an Oculus Quest. On Tuesday, however, app maker Guy Godin said Facebook forced him to pull the functionality.

"I'm sorry to announce this but Oculus doesn't want the SteamVR streaming feature in their store," he wrote in a Reddit post. Godin said he worked on the feature for months, believing it to be a "very cool idea, [but] according to Oculus, I am hurting Quest," he added.

Godin said he was forced to pull the experimental feature from both his Virtual Desktop app in the Oculus Quest store and in the Oculus Go and Gear VR stores, which are controlled by Facebook. "As a dev (developer) who likes to experiment and try new things, I find these practices damaging for the industry. Users love this feature," he tweeted.

Facebook hasn't commented on the issue directly, saying only that the Oculus Store is curated for quality.

"While we don't comment on the status of specific apps, our Oculus Store application submission system is designed to help ensure that our devices deliver a consistent, comfortable experience to customers," the company told Road to VR. "Apps are evaluated on a number of factors including performance, input, and safety with the goal of creating a quality, high-value experience for all VR consumers."

The response probably won't appease Oculus customers, who've been complaining about the feature's cancellation on Reddit. In the meantime, Godin said he is considering bringing back the ability to stream from the SteamVR platform as a feature that can be downloaded separately and "sideloaded" into an Oculus Quest headset.
