Quest build v33 release notes
These features and enhancements will become available starting the week of September 13th, 2021. Guardian History If your headset is experiencing tracking issues, you can now use Clear Guardian history to delete Guardian maps and tracking data in addition to boundary data from your Quest or Quest 2 headset. Please note that this will also delete the Guardian tracking data for any secondary users if you have multiple accounts saved on your headset. You can clear your Guardian history from the Guardian settings panel in VR. Safe Browsing We’ve implemented an additional layer of security in Oculus Browser to protect you from websites that may be potentially harmful (malware, phishing etc.). If you navigate to a potentially harmful site, you’ll be redirected to a separate page with info on why the site may be unsafe and recommendations for how to proceed. This feature is powered by Google Safe Browsing. Link and Air Link Visual Improvements Next time you use Link or Air Link with your headset, you may notice improved image quality and text clarity thanks to Link Sharpening. Link Sharpening makes images crisper, fine details clearer, and text more clear and easy to read. Improved Oculus Touch Controller Sleep Management We’re updating the Oculus Touch Controller firmware to make controllers go to sleep faster, which improves the standby battery life. Please note that this update applies only to the original Quest to match the controller behavior on Quest 2. Improved Multitasking We’re bringing some of the previously experimental multitasking features to everyone. These include showing up to three currently running 2D apps in the Universal Menu, a bar beneath each window for accessing common controls, and the ability to drag and drop Browser tabs and windows. App-Level Notifications Preferences Notification settings are being redesigned to allow for more granular control of your in-VR notifications. These settings include Turning ALL notifications for an app on or off. Turning notifications for a particular app category (e.g. friend activity) on or off Turning specific types of notifications (like push, VR, email) for an app on or off. System Keyboard Updates You’ll now see auto-correct features when typing using the system keyboard. We’ve also improved next-word prediction. You can quickly select the next word suggestion by hitting the spacebar. Please note that this feature will be rolling out progressively over time and may not initially be available for all users.
