  • Hi,
    I believe that the passthrough feature has been changed to just passthrough. In the release notes (at https://www.meta.com/cs-cz/help/quest/172903867975450/?srsltid=AfmBOoo05YWokR9fE4mM4jwdoWomLnt94HNH5Np7eaaZoXKT0ourQttV), they mentioned the passthrough feature: 

    • New update to Passthrough: For those times when you want to stay grounded in your physical space, we’re providing new features for the Passthrough Home experience. This includes AppPinning, where you can pin your favorite windowed apps in Passthrough. Just open the app while in Passthrough, position it in a convenient location and use the “Pin” option on the app’s control bar. In addition, you can for the first time place objects in Passthrough starting with the Avatar Mirror to check out your look and the portal to Horizon Central for convenient access.
    • See your physical surroundings when in Immersive Full Passthrough

      When you’re in an immersive experience (for example; Beat Saber) you can clear your view, to stay aware of your environment, by clicking “See physical surroundings” in Quick settings, double tapping on the side of your headset, or clicking the Action Button on Quest 3s. You can resume your immersive experience again, whenever you’re ready.

    So, I don't understand their point here, but yes, it has been changed, and I have issues with this too.

    Hope it helps,
