Google is open to an Android XR partnership with Meta that would see the existing headset maker get access to more apps, but that offer was rejected.
According to The Information, “Google suggested that Meta partner on Android XR” in a late 2023 meeting between the two companies. It could result in Meta contributing to Android XR, with the Quest headsets already using the open source version of Android. The implication is that Meta would switch to the new OS.
