It’s been a while since we’ve done a longer video! What do you think? At this point browser apps are more feature rich. But you can’t do everything in the main OS I guess. As always thanks for watching!

Saving window setups in Fluid is pretty legit. I’m glad they implemented that. I haven’t been back to it in a minute

It’s exciting to see Meta constantly pushing the Quest 3 to new heights, especially on such an affordable headset (considering the VR market). But man, Fluid is kind of ahead of the curve. I might need to check it out more seriously.

That is cool, but it still years away from what people want, like if you are two in the same room it had been great if a "host" could share a window that are in the same spot for booth users, like a scoreboard, a whiteboard or just Netflix so you could simulate a larger screen.

It can’t me anything under 30 because KZread is at 30 and you don’t notice any choppiness. I wouldn’t say it feels as smooth as 90 should feel. Just a guess everything is probably somewhere between 72hz and 90hz I also don’t know if setting the 120hz setting does anything in the main quest OS. I honestly didn’t have any complaints to give it much thought.

i just tested v67 and for my usecase it's not really at a point i personally want it to be. I often use 2D windows while i am in a 3D native app or using Virtual Desktop. I often have a browser, chat, audio player or notpad website open in the background while in a game. Either i play music or have to check something, so i press the menu button to see and control the 2D apps. And here comes the 1st issues. Only one window is left at the center and it always snaps to the same position. If i resize it and go back and forth between 3D and 2D it always snaps to the default size, which is very annoying. At least this worked in v66. The option of having the windows near and further away also seem to be removed. In older versions you could actually have the three fixed windows open at the same time, but that also has been removed. The whole idea of having multiple 2D apps running in the background is reduced to the bare minimum with this new firmware. In addition to this the windows positioning with the controllers is not very good. You could pick a window and move it to a specific position, but if you want to move it back and forth you cannot use the thumbstick, which would be the most intuitive way if you use a controller. I really wonder who does the actual tests at Meta for different usecases. It all may work if you just want to to work with a couple of 2D and using hand tracking, but once you use the controllers and a combination between 2D and 3D/VR it's barely usable.

Thanks for spending some time here on the comments. And I align with what you’re saying it’s just shy of being useful. Which is why I find myself back in Fluid or Virtual desktop even after seeing this update. I hope it continues to get polish and isn’t just a knee jerk reaction update

As someone who uses the Quest 3 as no-laptop coding setup (with Squircle and Godot IDE) the potential here is nuts. I do wanna see them give up on the dock though. Just let us freeform all six possible apps, and revamp the launcher. They don't have to steal it from Vision Pro (I'd actually prefer that they didn't) but I do wanna see the app launcher get way better.

@TheConstruct_VR

7 күн бұрын

Agreed …we need a launcher more akin to a task bar or dock for launching apps. Sticky windows aren’t as useful. Fluid gave up one window to try out a new launcher.

all very nice. but again this issue like with the spatial app: why cant videos from google photos or icloud photos play??

It NEEDS to be thumb stick to make it miles away to 1 mm away and left right for size as big as a planet or as small as a pixel. It’s vr, why are there any restrictions at all? I hate the dock/size limits/distance limits/location limits these things usually have. Glad it’s finally leading towards how it should have been done in the first place

@TheConstruct_VR

Yeah Fluid is better at it, it even works with the wheel on a mouse to move the window back and forward .

Apple, with its spatial computing, multi-windowing and eye control, seems to be holding back the development of virtual reality. Because they offer us an interaction with space that doesn't correspond to how we interact with it in real life. We miss the ability to place virtual items and attach windows to walls in XR.
