Hi! New version of firmvare (v81) doesn't exists option like "Passthrough->Enable passthrough double tap on quest" And now, if I double tap on my quest, it enable passthrough. How can I fix that? Maybe some adb command or smth else or only wait new update?

Everybody, you can formally submit the suggestion to return this passthrough setting feature in the developers Feedback Center here.

Done this, my ticket is switched to "investigating" but still no luck yet.

I also submit a bug report every time I get in VR before I jump over to steamlink.

This feels like meta is removing not adding new features to quest and it really annoys me. Who ever decided from product managers or what ever developers to remove this clearly does not use meta products them selves, Just like all the awful new UI elements i encounter. All i want my Quest 3 or Quest Pro headsets to do is just work well with PC not waste my time on settings menu with new feature removals.

Meta,

Please return the ability to disable "double tap to passthrough". We have 100 headsets and our clients are accidentally exiting the games! This is the same for all VR rooms and VR arenas!

At least give this feature to developers or expose via ADB commands.

Maybe you should formally submit a bug report through the headset (Quick Settings->Report problem, or report it to the Feedback Centre. I doubt the developers read these Community Forums.

its been two month and not a single fix. i'm sick and tired of getting thrown out of my games and ruining the experience. its almost like meta want's us to move away from the quest platform

had my headset with wifi turned off. Updated recently and found I wish I had stayed on v79 for the features I liked, the tap feature surprised me and lead me searching to here.
It triggers a lot for me during rhythm games with no work around . Making an effort to report regularly about this

Yeah, keep at it, keep this issue bumped, it's only going to make Meta look bad, and give people a reason not to buy a Meta headset ever.

If they want to screw over their customers, let the forums see how much they are willing to do so, that way any new customers will know to never buy a meta product.

I miss being able to turn off the double-tap gesture. Bring this feature back.

I have exactly the same thing, I hate it, it turns on at the least desirable moment.
I have a sim racing rig with vibrations and a lot of movement, and Q3 automatically switches to room view at the least desirable moment, during a race, the game disappears and I see the room, I nervously tap twice and usually the race is already over.
It is unthinkable to force me to use this feature.
I want the freedom to choose and not be forced to use something I don't like. I want to disable the transition feature.
When using KKCBOVER, I often adjust Q3 on my head, and it even reacts to the click of removing the glasses from my eyes.
This is tragic.
