What is Meta Horizon Managed Services (HMS) and How Does it Work with ManageXR?
Introduction to Meta Horizon Managed Services (HMS)
Meta Horizon Managed Services (HMS), often called MHMS, is Meta’s official subscription-based platform designed to securely manage Meta Quest headsets (like Quest 3, Quest 3S, and others) at scale.
It replaces the former “Quest for Business” and enables organizations to deploy VR/AR for work, training, and education with built-in tools for device control, user management, app deployment, and security features like Shared Mode.
HMS is now required for new or factory-reset Quest devices (on recent software versions) to unlock enterprise capabilities and third-party MDM integrations.

How Does Meta Horizon Managed Services Work with ManageXR?
ManageXR is one of Meta’s official approved third-party MDM (Mobile Device Management) providers, fully integrated with HMS.
Here’s how the powerful combination works:
- Subscribe to HMS — Get an active HMS subscription per device (often included for 2 years when buying through resellers like Red Stone USA Inc).
- Enroll Devices — Use HMS to enroll your Meta Quest headsets via a streamlined, low-touch Wi-Fi process.
- Select ManageXR — In the Meta Horizon Admin Center, choose ManageXR as your preferred MDM for advanced features like kiosk mode, remote app updates, session management, and granular controls.
- Unlock Enhanced Management — Enjoy Meta’s backend security + ManageXR’s powerful tools for distraction-free experiences, bulk provisioning, and analytics.
This integration simplifies enrollment, unlocks new APIs for better control, and supports mixed fleets (legacy devices can continue as-is, but new ones benefit most from HMS + ManageXR).
Benefits of HMS + ManageXR:
- Faster setup and deployment
- Secure, scalable management for hundreds or thousands of devices
- Support for Shared Mode (full-screen content without logins) and Individual Mode
- Access to the latest Meta features and third-party apps
