FPS Settings

Dear Meta team,

please consider reintroducing the ability to manually set the refresh rate (e.g. 60 / 72 / 90 / 120 Hz) on Quest devices.

This option was available until late 2023 and was extremely helpful for WebXR/WebGL development. Now, Quest 3 forces 90 Hz by default, which causes:

  • High GPU/CPU load for low-performance apps
  • Frame drops and stuttering in WebXR
  • More heat and battery drain
  • Unnecessary complexity for clients (SideQuest setup etc.)

 

This feature is essential for many enterprise and browser-based experiences. A simple toggle in developer settings or browser flags would already help a lot.

Thank you for considering this request.

    I can set my headset's refresh rate using custom ADB commands, but it has to be above or equal to 72.

    I've always used 60 hz with no problem weeks ago. They say it's "not supported" even though it was working perfectly fine for me.

    But now they've made it so that people who literally want 60 hz can't even set their headset's refresh rate to that. I don't care if it's "not supported", I have been using it perfectly fine and I want to use it again!
