BrainOn VR Support

Welcome to the future of brain performance. Get started, learn the controls, and troubleshoot common issues so you get the most from every Vitanya NeuroEntrainment session.

Watch First

A multi-sensory experience rooted in neuroscience, designed from more than a decade of real-world deployment with high-performance populations. Two short videos cover the essentials.

VR Hand Gestures

BrainOn VR uses hand tracking. Five gestures run the whole experience.

Understanding the Dashboard

The in-headset dashboard has two panels: settings on the left, your session on the right.

Settings panel: Volume (control volume here or on the headset), Brightness (far left makes surroundings completely dark; default lets you see the room in pass through mode), Distance (controls the focal distance of the user interface), a handle that collapses Settings, and Restart and Pause buttons.
CORE Brainwave Training panel: a minute-by-minute V-shaped graph from BETA (conscious and alert) down through ALPHA (focus and flow) to THETA (relax and meditate) and back up, with the session timer across the top.
  • Brightness

    Room brightness. Far left makes your surroundings completely dark; the default lets you see the room in Pass Through mode.

  • Volume

    Control volume here or on the headset.

  • Focal distance

    Controls the focal distance of the user interface.

  • Collapse

    Collapses the settings panel.

  • Restart & Pause

    Restart the session from the beginning, or pause it.

  • Session timer

    Tracks session time.

  • V-shaped graph

    Follows the shift from one brainwave state to another.

  • Brainwave states

    The three brainwave states trained in the CORE protocol.

NeuroEntrainment: What Is It?

Brainwave Training

At Vitanya, everything we do is built around helping your brain become more flexible, more resilient, and more capable. NeuroEntrainment is one of the tools that accelerates that neuroplasticity process.

During a NeuroEntrainment session, carefully designed sound patterns, layered under relaxing music, guide your brain into specific, beneficial brainwave states.

  • BETAConcentration, Arousal, Alertness
  • ALPHACreativity, Flow State, Focus
  • THETAREM Sleep, Deep Meditation

Precision Frequency Tuning

Our headset uses specific audio tones to act as a neural GPS. By delivering precise frequencies, we help your brain shift its way out of mental fog and into high-clarity states.

It’s about clearing the static so your brain can broadcast at its strongest frequency — whether that’s for intense work or deep sleep.

Frequently Asked Questions

About BrainOn VR

BrainOn VR is Vitanya’s immersive NeuroEntrainment experience, delivered through Meta Quest 3 headsets. It is designed to help guide the brain into beneficial states that support focus, recovery, resilience, and performance.

Built on neuroscience and informed by more than a decade of real-world use with high-performance populations, BrainOn VR represents the next evolution of Vitanya’s brain performance tools.

Yes. BrainOn VR’s default mode is Pass Through, which means you will be able to see your environment while using the headset. This allows users to remain visually aware of the room around them and, in many cases, even view their phone if needed.

If the Brightness slider is moved far left, your environment may no longer be visible. This changes the visual experience from Pass Through to a darker, more immersive view.

If you want to restore visibility of your surroundings, move the Brightness setting to the right.

BrainOn VR replaces the BrainTap headsets previously used in our program. It delivers Vitanya’s NeuroEntrainment experience through a custom-designed, more immersive VR platform, while also allowing for easier software updates, better content delivery, and future feature expansion.

The Vitanya BrainOn VR app is the primary experience on the device. In most cases, the app should load automatically when the headset powers on.

Usually, no. The headset is set up so BrainOn VR should be ready to auto launch at startup. If it does not appear automatically, you may need to activate the restart button in the bottom left corner.

No. You do not need to keep your eyes open during the experience. The preference is yours.

If the visual portion of the experience feels uncomfortable, you may close your eyes. You will still receive the benefits of the audio portion of the NeuroEntrainment session.

Wi-Fi allows the device to receive important updates from Vitanya, including:

  • Application improvements
  • Application performance updates
  • New content releases

To keep the experience current and functioning as intended, headsets should be connected to Wi-Fi regularly.

In many cases, yes — but the headset may not receive important updates or newly released content until it reconnects. For best results, keep the device connected to Wi-Fi whenever possible.

Yes. Some BrainOn VR headsets are intended for shared use across teams or locations. In shared environments, users should fully exit the session and power down the headset after use.

For support, contact your Brain Performance Coach or your site’s designated device lead.

Troubleshooting

Try these steps:

  1. Wait 30–60 seconds to allow the device to complete startup.
  2. Confirm the headset has enough battery charge.
  3. Power the device off fully, then restart it.

If the problem continues, contact your Brain Performance Coach or site administrator.

Because some headsets are shared, you may occasionally pick up a device that was not fully exited or powered down.

To reset the experience:

  1. Activate the restart button in the bottom left corner.
  2. If the headset is unresponsive, restart the device.

If the headset is offline, it may not receive bug fixes, app updates, or new content.

To reconnect:

  1. Pinch and release your thumb and index finger towards your face to exit the BrainOn VR app and open the device menu.
  2. Select the small Wi-Fi icon.
  3. Choose the correct network.
  4. Enter the password if prompted.
  5. Reopen the Vitanya BrainOn VR app after the device connects.

If you do not know the network credentials, contact your local site lead.

The BrainOn VR app defaults to Pass Through, so you should normally be able to see your environment while using the headset.

If you cannot see your surroundings:

  1. Move the Brightness slider to the right.
  2. Restart the app if needed.

If the issue continues, contact your Brain Performance Coach or site lead.

Check the following:

  • The device is charged
  • The headset is fully powered on, not just asleep
  • The app has launched
  • The device has been restarted if needed

If the issue continues, reconnect to Wi-Fi and try again.
