On my meta quest 3, if I go into chats and then into stickers there is no option for sending pictures or videos, I can only send stickers.

Hey there, everyone! I finally got an update from the team, and it appears y'all were correct. It appears the ability to send photos and videos was blocked to UK and EU users. As for the exact reason why, I'm not too sure, but I would think it to be legal reasons. I know this likely isn't the answer y'all were looking for, but I hope it brought some clarification as to not being able to send photo/video via your headset or mobile app. Thank you all for your patience!

Hi @Unknownboy7332 🙂

yes, it's the same for me....I have no button to send images.

Not sure, if this is some sort of bug?

The feature to send images and avatar stickers is only available in some countries.

But I think if you are able to send stickers, you should also able to send an image.

Maybe somebody else here or @MetaQuestSupport can tell what's the reason for that.

 

Hey @Unknownboy7332 and @Choleni. We definitely want to help you regain access to all of the chat features on your Quest 3 as soon as possible. Here are some suggestions for fixing the issue. 

 

  1. Sign out of your Meta account on your headset and sign back in.
  2. We also suggest a reboot of your Quest 3. There's a link here for reference if you need help with performing the reboot.

Let us know if these steps helped in resolving your issue. If you're still having problems after trying these steps, we can look into other solutions to fix the problem with your chat. Hope to hear from you soon! ​

Thanks for your answer @MetaQuestSupport 🙂
Let me explain a little more......I do not have this "send image" button in Quest 3, in Quest 2 or in the mobile app.
That's why I thought it's maybe a bug or just not available in my country.
I logged out and in again in mobile app but that does not change a thing.
I reboot the quest 2 each day and that also doesn't change anything.

Hey y'all! I would love to bring this up to our internal team for further investigation, but I would need some information to provide them first. Please let me know the following information:

 

  1. Headset version number? 
    • Quick Settings > System > Software Update
  2. Meta Quest app version number?
  3. Was this feature previously available in your country?

Also, a screenshot of the chat options would be greatly appreciated (please cross out any personal information in the screenshot)

 

With this information, I'll have a better chance of getting whether or not this is a bug or a feature from our internal team. Thank you all for your patience during this time!
