Meta Horizon Workrooms Issues/Suggestions

Hello! 

I just have a bit of feedback for the Workrooms app.  I love it actually more than the other 2 competitors (Immersed and Virtual Desktop), but it can use some polishing up! 

I am using an M1 Max MacBook Pro (MacOS 15.1) and Quest 3 (v71).

Issues:

  • When I use an external mouse with Workrooms, the mouse lags significantly.  Is this a known issue/anything to do about it?  The internal MacBook trackpad seems to work just fine.
  • I am overall extremely impressed with the minimal latency, but it frequently drops.  When hovering over the "Computer" icon in the dock, I am constantly seeing "Poor connection".  My WiFi 6 router is only 6 feet away and has line-of-sight with my MacBook.  Is there a way to improve this for a stable connection?  
  • The "Connect automatically" option does not work.  Or at least the toggle switches back to off after 1 second.  ...Update!  It's working now.  Not sure what caused it to work. 
  • Sound output keeps switching to "Meta Quest Remote Desktop Audio" when sound is not playing.  I'd much rather keep it outputting to my headphones, and it isn't great when music suddenly plays from the headset when I'm in a quiet public space.  

 

Suggestions:

  • It would be nice to turn off the drone sound/birds.  I currently see no option other than to entirely mute the sound from the Quest. 
  • Would love to be able to change the extra monitors resolution/ratio, and allow for vertical resolutions. 
  • Please allow resizing of the Desk Passthrough window!  Currently it is much too small.  Ideally: the front stays where it is, and the width and length can be adjusted independently on the other 3 sides.
  • Ability to move the menu dock.  Sometimes I accidentally click it as it is right behind my keyboard. 
  • Not sure if it would be possible, but if I could use a high-speed USB-C cable rather than WiFi, that would be ideal for a reliable connection.  
  • You guys have the best environment out of any others, but it would be nice to have other options.  Even to a black void, or just changing the time of the day for this one would be great. 
  • Ability to adjust the brightness of the environment and passthrough.
  • Ability to turn off computer screens or automatically turn the brightness all the way down for privacy. 

 

Again, I love the app, and I'm writing this to help make it better!  Thanks for taking the time to read.  If this isn't the right place for bugs/suggestions, please direct me to where to post so the appropriate people can see them! 🙂
