Virtual Desktop is remote control software for Android-based virtual reality headsets. It allows users to control a PC over a wireless LAN from the headset, including the ability to stream VR games and software.

The original version of Virtual Desktop (now branded as Virtual Desktop Classic) was designed as a 3D windowing environment for PCs using Oculus Rift and SteamVR. In May 2019, an Android port of Virtual Desktop was announced as a launch app for the Oculus Quest headsets; this app is designed to allow users to wirelessly control a PC from their headset. It has since been released for other Android-based headsets, including Pico, HTC Vive Focus 3, and HTC Vive XR Elite.
