App not launching from PC to Quest 2

[NeilAgg]

I have successfully:

1. Built my app into an apk
2. Uploaded it to Quest AppLab
3. Installed the app on my Quest 2
4. Run the app on the headset

And:

1. Set up a virtual reality test project with the starter content
2. Launched it on my Windows PC to the headset

But, when I try to run my app on the PC, it never launches to the headset.

The launcher seems to hang for a long time after I see this in the log:

LogPlayLevel: UAT: Creating UECommandLine.txt

Right before that, I see these outputs:

I have my project set up to have read and write external permissions:

Any suggestions?

[NeilAgg]

Could it be that there is some conflict because I deployed the app to Quest AppLab?

[NeilAgg]

I figured it out.

I ran into the problem described here:
UE5 Oculus Quest 2 launching app in shipping build loads forever

I set my project to Development and it worked fine.
