Disclosed herein are systems and methods for colocating virtual content. A method may include receiving first persistent coordinate data, second persistent coordinate data, and relational data. A third persistent coordinate data and a fourth persistent coordinate data may be determined based on input received via one or more sensors of a head-wearable device. It can be determined whether the first persistent coordinate data corresponds to the third persistent coordinate data. In accordance with a determination that the first persistent coordinate data corresponds to the third persistent coordinate data, it can be determined whether the second persistent coordinate data corresponds to the fourth persistent coordinate data. In accordance with a determination that the second persistent coordinate data corresponds to the fourth persistent coordinate data, a virtual object can be displayed using the relational data and the second persistent coordinate data via a display of the head-wearable device. In accordance with a determination that the second persistent coordinate data does not correspond to the fourth persistent coordinate data, the virtual object can be displayed using the relational data and the first persistent coordinate data via the display of the head-wearable device. In accordance with a determination that the first persistent coordinate data does not correspond to the third persistent coordinate data, the method may forgo displaying the virtual object via the display of the head-wearable device.
