I've written major problems about store several times before. While some improvements have been made, major problems still remain.
1. Overflowing garbage software
There is a lot of garbage software that looks like it was created by amateurs in a few days. Originally, these apps were separated into App Lab, but now they've been merged. Since the merger, the number of junk apps has increased even more.
2. Most new software doesn't show up in New Release
Most new software doesn't show up in New Release categoly. It says it's updated weekly, but it's not actually updated every week. It may not be necessary to display junk software, but it doesn't show even works that are seriously made.
3. Problem of Browse All
Since most software doesn't show up in New Release categoly, the only way to see the real list of new releases is to use Browse All. However, even if we use Browse All and order by release date, a large number of games that will be released in the future are displayed first, and we have to scroll dozens of times (on a phone app) to see the new software, which is terrible terrible usability. Games that will be released in the future are already grouped under the Upcoming Release category. Brawse All should only show software that has been released. And we should be able to separate them with filters.
These problems have made the store terrible for both users and developers. Users can't check out new releases, and developers can't sell their games even if they put effort into making them because users can't see them.
Meta, you know the reality of low sales in many good games these days. You are selling hardware at a huge loss, and to make a profit you have to sell a lot of software. You claim sales are increasing? But if you listened to your users and developers, sales would be even higher. The stores are still so bad that one wonders if you are intentionally trying to make them unsellable. Please do some work before the VR gaming industry is dying.

Meta Horizon OS plan is Meta Horizon Worlds is the main focus. Don't know why all the fuss. The store is in the top left corner to browse the store, the newest release is on the filter and there is a section too. I don't fully think it's garbage. Meta Horizon Worlds will always be on the front page of the app, that's the reason why it's call Meta Horizon app, and the Meta Horizon OS

I have noticed I do need to uninstall the app after an update, and reinstall it to see things better

You're misunderstanding? New Release don't show most of actual new release softwares.
... WTF!? Uninstall & reinstall... it makes muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuch worse! Search function is broken, most of softwares aren't shown even in Browse All. Whhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaat???

If your talking about Oceanarium not showing up on that time when it was first available. I found that I still have to uninstall and reinstall the mobile app for it to show up. As well new apps (Gallery) from Meta or by other creators, showing unavailable, I still need to uninstall and reinstall the mobile app, for it to show available.

Name 1 that's not showing up for you. And I probably can find it for you.

What are you talking about? I'm not talking about specific software. You should read my post again.

I think Meta said enough for me to say anything else.
