Typing in VR

Finding information on this talk site is almost impossible and, as with the other sites Meta owns, getting a direct answer is utterly impossible so I'll ask here and see if anyone knows.

 

Is there a way, or an app than you can use to type inside the quest 3 with more than just your index fingers? I'm in love with the VR keyboard and "touch" inputs on screen but find the step back to one fingeredness quite disappointing.

Thank you for your reply, and we are happy to hear that you are not having any issues with hand tracking or touch inputs. We understand wanting to be able to type in VR on a keyboard, just as you do in real life. While there may not be a specific app just for a VR keyboard, you do have the option to use a tracked keyboard with your headset. We would also encourage you to submit your feedback through your headset regarding index finger-only typing. You can do so by going to Quick Settings > Report A Problem. We value your feedback and suggestions, as they help us understand how to improve our products and your VR experience. Please let us know if you have any further questions or concerns; we are here to help!

Hey @AbWill! We really hope you are doing well, and came across your post regarding your question regarding our keyboard. We noticed you were having issues with using "touch" inputs on screen. Have you been able to use hand tracking for this, and still experiencing the same issue? 

We look forward to hearing your response and assisting you in the future!

Thankyou,

I don't have an issue, it works. I wanted to know if there are any other settings or VR keyboard apps or typing apps for the Q3 where you can type with all your fingers, not just your index finger.
