Quest 3 double tap passthrough

I cant for the life of me find a way to disable this awful double tap feature, sure its great for standalone but as someone who uses pcvr and i just wanna lay down and watch a movie, im not even tapping it and it keeps activating and its driving me nuts, is there a way to disable this feature or passthrough overall, i know there USED to be a way to but it seems that setting is gone now?

  • Quest 2 user here. There used to be a way to disable this, but I can't find the setting anymore, unfortunately. Looks like it might be forced now, which sucks as someone who adjusts their headset a lot.

    Hi there,

     

    We came across your post and wanted to offer some assistance regarding pass-through.

     

    You've mentioned that you'd like to turn pass-through off. Not to worry, this can be done by doing the following steps:


    1. Press the Meta/Oculus button on your right controller to open the universal menu.
    2. Select the clock on the left-hand side of the universal meny to open Quick Settings.
    3. Select Settings > Environment Setup > Pass-through
    4. Turn the toggle next to Turn on Pass-through

     

    Thanks!

      This setting doesn't exist. Going to Environment Setup there is no Pass-through module. I have talked with numerous users experiencing the same issues.

      I personally want the ability to turn pass-through off as while I use a PC link software like Quest link, I often find myself accidentally tapping the side and switching to pass through. After doing so, my in-game bit rate becomes extremely buggy. So much to the point where I have to both reset my headset and PC link service. 

      I would very much like this feature back inside the UI, as my experience with my quest has plummeted with consistent problems.

        All you can do is report it as a problem through "Quick Settings"->"Report Problem" in your headset. If enough people do that, maybe Meta will bring the setting back.

  • Dear Meta guys, you disabled this option in v81. Why did you do that? Please revert this change asap!
