Lying down (Quest 2 and Quest Pro only)

We’ve added a new feature that allows you to use your Quest 2 or Quest Pro headset while lying down. Kick back, relax and recline for casual experiences including media playback and stationary immersive gaming. You can enable this feature by going to Experimental in Settings and selecting the toggle next to Use Apps While Lying Down.  


Once enabled, you can use this feature by laying down and then pressing and holding the Meta or Oculus Menu button to reset your view.

Massacher Well not very useful posting anything until you do get this update imho.

Edit; 4x days later and I still haven't seen non-PTC v63.  Please let me know when anyone actually gets this, not on PTC, thanks.

TomCgcmfc Didn't receive this update either... neither for Q2 nor Q3.
So there must be serious problems with it.

Especially since there's nothing there that's needed, right?

Buetigame  Ya, nothing really needed, for me anyway.  I’m not having any so-called common v62 issues with standalone or pcvr using Link or Air Link with my Q3/QPro/rtx4090.  Still, it will be interesting to see if v63 improves anything.

TomCgcmfc Didn't have any issues with v62 either (Q2&3/rtx4070ti).
As I've understand threre are no improvements with v63, maybe one or another bugfix.
But I can confirm, that with v62 the battery time while (air-)linking inproves very much!

Hopefully v63 wouldn't make things any worse ðŸ¤£

OK, I got v63 (non-beta) earlier today on both my Q3 and QPro.  Both report versions 63.0.0.400.363.  Also got a meta link pc app update (again, non-beta) to 63.0.0.216.361.  My Q3 update included firmware (usual little firmware update icon) but my QPro only included software and controllers updates.

Tested with standalone and PCVR with Link and Air Link using Quest store, Rift store, and SteamVR.  All seems to be working fine so far.  Going in and out of stanalone to PCVR seems a little faster and more solid now.  Otherwise, everything seems to work about the same as v62, which was already working well, for me anyway.

I'm always pretty happy when updates don't break things, lol!  Thanks Meta and cheers.

I can confirm the firmware-update @ my destination... for Q2 and Q3.
Same versions (incl. desktop app), metioned by TomCgcmfc .

Everything works fine so far, also PCVR.

But what about the "lying down" feature for Q2?
Or this uminosis "layout app" which should come with v62?

Ryanality That would be really interessting!
What's the point of announcing features but not deliver them?

Can you please fix the water/debris error and stop wasting time on stuff like Meta Cash?

Either let us toggle it in experimental features, in developer mode or just push an update that turns off the pop up. Simple.

It's been six weeks and I'm getting the bug in standalone, on V63. I'm not talking PTC either. This is literally with the official update.

I was also not getting the bug with V62 and got it within minutes of V63. You have pushed the bug on me with the official V63 update. I'm not even in the test channel!
