Functionality of Casting and App Sharing

These two "features" are by far the most aggravating experiences on the quest 3, as a family device.  We have two people under one roof using the same device. 

 

Only one person can cast?  Why?  That's just obscenely stupid.  Why isn't there an option on the device to define who are a part of the family of users and all of those people allowed to cast? It's absurd.  It's not like there's any possible way to violate copyright through casting.

Making things worse, app sharing barely works when you need it to.  Golf+ used to be shared between the two aforementioned people - just one person didn't get the premium courses.  Okay, that's fine and manageable. But now both people have to buy it to use it?  I'm assuming yet another thing is broken because the golf+ community says app sharing should work.

 

remember the old days where you buy a game from CompUSA or Service Merchandise or GameStop, or wherever else, take it home, install it, and your family members can either watch you play over your shoulder, or jump in and play themselves? I miss those days.

Cute how you completely ignore the main complaint being casting.  Total destruction of the sharing of the experience.
