Meta Quest build v65 release notes

These features and enhancements will become available starting the week of April 30, 2024 and will be pushed to Meta Quest 3, Meta Quest Pro and Meta Quest 2 headsets. Please note that you can find the most up to date release notes on our release notes article and you can check out our v65 blog as well for more details.

 

Panoramic photos and spatial video

If you have an iPhone on iOS 17 and later, you can now upload panoramic photos or spatial video to your Quest headset using the Meta Quest mobile app.

 

Passthrough improvements

You’ll now see your passthrough environment instead of the default gray background for some system menus and prompts when you’re using passthrough in your Horizon Home.

 

Mouse and keyboard improvements

When using a physical keyboard or mouse with your headset, you should now see fewer interruptions from hand tracking, including when these devices are connected to your headset via Bluetooth or when using Meta Quest Remote Display.


Local multiplayer and boundary recall with Meta Virtual Positioning System

Local multiplayer allows multiple VR devices to play in the same physical space in a common immersive environment, while improved boundary detection uses Meta server processing to improve the likelihood of recognizing previously established boundaries, reducing the chance that you will be prompted to re-draw your boundary as you move between physical spaces. This enhanced understanding of your immediate physical space is achieved by sending point cloud data from your device to Meta servers for processing. Learn more about Meta Virtual Positioning System and how to enable it from your privacy settings.

 

Travel mode (Quest 3 and Quest 2 only)

With travel mode on Meta Quest 3 and Quest 2 you can interact, work and play in MR while on an airplane and also access in-flight entertainment.

Once you enable travel mode from Experimental in Settings, you can turn it on or off anytime from the Quick settings panel.

You may also see a message to turn on travel mode if you try to use your headset while on a plane. Learn more about travel mode.

Wow... I really hope, the WiFi problems (introduced with v64) are fixed with this release.
AirLink and also media streaming were nearly useless for the last two weeks.
Please, let come this update "over me" soon ðŸ¤£

Great news!

Nice to see improvements happening in spans of just few weeks, thanks to the team behind them!

Passthrough has now been upgraded pretty decently just this year, and to think there could still be room for improvement...

So far, only updates and improvements to Meta Quest 3, making buyers happy and their purchase more worth while.

If there is something that could also be taken into the improvement que, it's the UI... already good but it is the single thing that if improved directly makes an impression on the user experience.

I have seen some "leaks" if you could call them like that, which make the Meta UI seem and look even more immersive and futuristic, just be redesigning windows, edges, some blur and effects... who knows, maybe we are closer to that then further.

I've had a really intense contact to the Meta Support.
They've found a bad constellation in my wifi network, but the connection "disruption" persist.
(now every 6 to 8 min, before much more often - no connection to the router, but to the extender)

There should be changes to wifi in v65 and maybe the issue was fixed, which was introduced in v64.
(at least for me, because I didn't use AirLink that much in the three weeks with v63, if at all)

Please please don't become an Apple clone !!?? The whole idea behind Android based systems was the openness of the eco system! The new headline feature of Panoramic pictures is only for iPhone users (I don't own an iPhone!) Yes I understand the Apple headset has some very very nice features, but it's also backed up with a lot more expensive hardware and trying to make the Quest range like Apple will just end up looking like a cheap Chinese knock off!! Please come up with your own idea's or at the very least take a look in your own idea's forum as there are loads of great idea's that have just been ignored..!!!! (and yes if I had the money to burn i'd by Apple's headset! lol)

But are the WiFi and Airlink issues fixed?  It's been 4 months since the issue was introduced (v62).

Love my Quest3... but I'd love it even more if I could use Airlink consistently.

As I've wrote... there is a wifi "change" coming with v65.
Whatever that means... so hopefully ðŸ˜œ

All of you who's complaining about scope storage, I don't understand why you all are complaining. I was able to use scope storage and mod. I was able to add a modded version of discord with no issues. So stop your harassment to Meta Horizon OS. And if scope storage really not fixed, Meta have all the rights to change the OS in any sorts of way. meta Horizon OS you all are doing an amazing job on the tech and the future VR world, keep it up. And thanks for your help @Ryanality for your support.

So how does the spatial and panorama upload work? I have an iPhone 13 with iOS 17 and I still don't see an upload button in the gallery of the meta quest app.
