These features and enhancements will become available starting the week of August 8th, 2022.

Meta Accounts

We’ll begin rolling out a new Meta account structure in August 2022 that gives people more flexibility and control in VR. You’ll no longer be required to log into your Meta VR devices with a Facebook account. This also means:

We’re also evolving your Oculus profile to a new Meta Horizon profile, which you can customize as you see fit.
Your “Friends” will now become “Followers,” similar to Instagram’s existing model.
You’ll have the option to add your Facebook and/or Instagram account to the same Accounts Center as your Meta account, which unlocks connected experiences in VR.
We’re rolling out new controls to help you more easily manage your privacy settings.

Meta Quest Guide

We are rolling out the Meta Quest Guide. Now users can:

Watch device and feature tutorials
Check out what's new in our latest Meta Quest software release notes
Find answers to top questions and get troubleshooting tips to fix problems

Note, this will be rolling out to users gradually over time.

Features will sometimes roll out gradually, and separately from the update itself, so it's possible that they just haven't been enabled for your system yet. I'll check in and see if I can get any details on if those features should be out for everyone yet or if they're still on the rollout.

Well we're wondering what is going on with feature roll outs.

App sorting, recording options, what can you tell us about 100% deployment?

And for new users? How can these new accounts be created?

I got v43 overnight last night. Do we have any idea what the Meta account creation process is going to look like? Will it be done on the headset? Phone app? Web?

The phone app was used to setup the device, so most likely it would be the way to go.

But you should ask this in the corresponding thread.

Oops, wrong place sorry.

My Quest 2 is at 43.0.0.178.120 and does not seem to charge as fast as in 42 and never reaches 100%. The highest I have seen is 83% starting at 53% and after hours of charging. What is wrong?

Hey there. That is not an experience we want to hear from our customers. We'd love to help.

First, let's submit a bug report with the steps listed HERE.

Next, we can try to charge the device from a different outlet for two hours and a different charger for two hours.

If none of these work, we suggest that you reach out to Support HERE to get some one-on-one attention.

Report sent with firmware version numbers. I am charging a USB battery pack from the same Anker usb charger and that is fine. It seems the Quest 2 is slow charging and not reaching 100%.

Thank you again for bringing this to our attention and filling out that bug report to help our engineers and community at large.

Can we try to charge the device from a different outlet for two hours?

The folks at Meta Store Support can be reached through email or chat at this link, and they'll be more than happy to take a closer look at everything with you.
