Get Help board and search for any existing thread on the issue, if you don't find one, make a new thread. Please add the tag "PTC v69" to the thread and in the title. This way everyone can look for just PTC v69 issues too.

    I noticed my voice commands are completely gone so I tried the double tap of the meta button and it saying voice commands are being replaced opt in to meta ai in settings but when I click the given blue opt in button on the notification my menu just closes....

    Maybe im impatient and it's loading??

    I have a quest 2 (still on v68) and a quest pro (updated to v69). I had an earlier 64gb quest 2 for qa testing but it was stuck on a v49 dev build and refused to upgrade even on fastboot or sideload, so essentially bricked. Usually the ota rollouts are regional and even then random. You can try to force update over adb if you have the build file though I suspect discussing that goes beyond scope of this public forum. Just keep checking and wait, it should eventually become available to those who don't have it.

    Andron827 did you sideload from the official meta quest site or that site youtubers were talking about?

    Seemless multitasking does not appear to be working as intended with Walkabout Minigolf. I start playing a Youtube (tried other streaming services in teh browser asthe official Youtube app) while in the browser and then click off the window back to the game the window stays but the video stops playing. 

    With other games (for example Vegas Infinite / Pokerstars VR) when you switch back to the game from the browser the video keeps playing.

    Yeah it wasn't there the first couple restarts lmao but it showed up ...

    Now the conversational ai is working and it's pretty cool. But the vision ai isn't working although I have camera option on in the settings lol...

    Idk I'll give it time... 

    It just rejects the request whenever i ask about my surroundings.. hmm

    so yeah the voice commands are gone for me now i don't have this option at all nor do i have any option for meta AI etc etc double tapping the meta button does nothing.

    It's no longer available in the settings or anywhere else that I can find.

    Recenter function, position of main screen become strange... worse usability, annouing in v69.  Because its reference? position is far away, we have to move it closer if we use hand tracking or if we want to use it closer. Also, if we move it closer and then recenter it, it will move away again. WTF. It has to be recentered at the same distance.
