The Elephant in the Room?
On Friday, many of our worlds were abruptly affected by an issue where triangle warning icons and exclamation markers began appearing throughout our environments. From what creators are reporting, this appears to primarily impact worlds built using Trimesh assets, while older worlds built mostly with primitive shapes seem unaffected. This issue is occurring globally across both Mobile and VR users, making many worlds difficult or impossible to properly test, showcase, or publish. Has Meta provided any official update regarding: The root cause of the Trimesh issue? Whether a fix is currently being worked on? An estimated timeline for resolution? Whether the June 15 publishing deadline will be extended for creators impacted by this platform-wide problem? Many creators have significant projects that are effectively on hold due to this issue. With the publishing deadline approaching, clarification from the Horizon team would be greatly appreciated. Thank you2.4 OVROverlayCanvas flickering issue
Tested on Quest 2/3/3S - OS v2.4.1034 After updating from 2.3 to 2.4 this morning my app is showing significant performance and visual issues. Apart from the framerate drops, it causes a black flickering on the screen that is only visible internally in the headset (i.e, doesn't show up on cast or video recording). It seems to be related to the use of OVROverlayCanvas as I tested an older build from two weeks ago that didn't have it implemented yet and the issue is not present. It also seems to get worse when I open the oculus menu within the app, as if adding overlay layers worsened the issue. Anyone else is seeing similar issues post-update ?
Quest 3 lost all tracking
Brand new quest 3 just arrived, configured an everything was doing pretty well. Was just logging into a game when all tracking just stopped working, a window saying "Tracking lost" showed up, but I couldn't click anything since the controllers stopped working too, hand tracking also wasnt working. I tried cleaning up the cameras with a very soft towel, tried rebooting, resetting to factory settings, everything I could. The screen is either completely black, black with a dot or on the starting screen asking to turn on the controllers, but the screen just moves randomly and isn't following the headset movements at all. There is a white dot blinking on the left controller and they keep vibrating every few seconds.
Informal announcement: Horizon Worlds WON'T actually be leaving VR
So you may have seen the formal announcement from Meta that Horizon Worlds would soon be discontinued in VR: Updates to Your Meta Quest Experience in 2026 | Meta Community Forums - 1369435 Well the good news is that the Meta CTO has had a change of heart, and now Horizon Worlds will be available as a separate app in VR. You will be able to access all existing Worlds, but won't get access to any new content 🙂: Boz on X: "ICYMI this from my AMA yesterday. We’ve decided to retain existing Horizon Worlds in VR for the foreseeable future. I know this is a bit of whiplash just a few days after we announced something different, but Horizon has some real fans in the VR community and they encouraged us" / X Meta CTO announces Horizon Worlds is staying on VR for existing games : r/OculusQuest They Changed Their Mind?!

Hi Meta. Why Portugal isn't in your country availability list? Come on, it's not hard to allow Meta AI for AI Glasses in Portugal, at least in english. We bought expensive glasses and we are having only a half of the experience. VPN aren't working anymore, why are you doing this? Same for Meta Horizon. Portugal isn't Spain, so please consider us as well... There are users too. I paid full price for both, Rayban Meta AI glasses, Quest 2, and Quest 3. Influenced 2 people to buy Rayban Meta AI, and 7 people to buy Quest. And now I feel like a illegal thief by using a VPN just to have same experience as others... Come on, just do it. Thank you.New Game Alert Runner Runner

Quest 2 Stuck on passthrough on wake-up
I just used my Quest 2 and for some reason it's stuck in passthrough when I turn it on. The controllers won't connect and are at full battery (as is the headset), and the only thing I could do was adjust the volume, where it displayed the volume slider graphic, but turned the entire screen black, which then returned to passthrough when the slider went away. So far I've shut it down and restarted it a number of times, all with the same results. I had used my Quest 2 a couple of days ago and it was working fine, I hadn't done anything too taxing on it graphics-wise, so I'm not sure this how this came about. Does anyone have a fix for this?African American History Museum

Can't use Meta Horizon app with quest 1
I bought a meta quest one, and I'm furious to find that I can't even use it! The setup is just completely broken in the app and I have found many forum posts from about 3 years ago of people complaining about the same thing, although now the workarounds they suggested don't even work any more. Would like to relight the fire on this one, please can this be fixed?
