I think meta should create programs for learning using VR

I am writing to report a persistent software bug that has been affecting the Meta Quest 3 since the v74 system update, and which still exists in the latest Meta Horizon OS version as of May 2026. Bug Description When the Quest 3 is completely powered off and charged using the original Meta 18W PD charger, the headset's display backlight will flicker briefly at regular intervals. This issue does not occur when using any third-party USB-C PD charger. Detailed Observations - The flickering frequency decreases as the battery level increases:​- At 20-40% battery: Flickers approximately every 30 seconds​- At 60-70% battery: Flickers approximately every 60 seconds​- Above 90% battery: The flickering almost completely stops​- The charging indicator light on the side of the headset remains solid orange (charging) or green (fully charged) throughout, confirming that the charging process itself is functioning normally.​- The issue does not occur when charging in sleep mode (sh

首先，感謝您能閱讀我的文章，祝你生活愉快。我在v2.3的版本中，緩慢多次按下主界面菜單按鍵，會出現主菜單圖標全部丟失，這包括控制栏圖標，應用APP圖標等等。 我希望能在下個版本修復，麻煩開發者團隊們了。並且我想詢問的是，能否在下個版本中添加舊版本ui切換按鈕，新版本ui使用體驗下來，整體美觀的，中肯的，但是這段時間使用體驗感覺沒有老ui那麼方便了，相信會有和我一樣的消費者擁有共同想法。其次，我覺得開發者團隊不應該把新ui中的個人頭像強行切換為虛擬形象，這并不是很美觀，我需要展示的是我的頭像，而並非虛擬形象。

I have a question 3s and my controller lost tracking, it’s still paired and I can calibrate it but I can’t do anything else with it.

Yet again dealing with a grey screen after boot attempt.Q3 was working as expected. Plugged it in to charge overnight and when I tried to power it up today I saw the Meta logo and the green progress bar like it was finalizing a software update. I assume the OS 2.3 roll out that started April 13 finally got to mine.After the progress bar filled the device booted to a grey screen. Waited 20 plus minutes with no change.I’ve tried multiple resets, and manual software installs from the Meta site. Boots to a grey screen every time. It stays like that with any amount of waiting I have it partially disassembled. After it sits a while with a grey screen the heat sink gets hot but the cooling fan never comes on. However, when I power off the device the fan runs momentarily.So…anyone know if a defective fan will cause a boot issue?I ask but I’m puzzled by the fact the fan runs momentarily at power down. That means the fan works so the issue is possibly with the control board. When the device

Hello everyone. Is there any way to bind a button on oculus touch to re-center my position in steam vr? I got my own VR club with bunch of headsets and everytime people start to play i have to recenter there position before they start to play. Its annoying because all the time i need to launch oculus mirror app or scrcpy to actually see on tv what they’re seeing in the headset and then press oculus button and then re-center position. I wish i able to just click button on controller or even keyboard

Had Quest 3s for a few months and suddenly cant click anything or do anything. When i look through the headset i see the white dot and shows microphone is on the purple mic icon. Currently shows sleep mode but cant click anything. I can hold down the meta button and will take screen shot or goes to home screen but cant click anything.Things i have tried - Hard reset headset. manually repaired both controllers through the AP. removed both batteries for over 30 seconds and replaced with new batteries. connected headset to PC but didn't see anything about an update but maybe missed it. I cleaned all camera in the front.

As the title says, in the past few updates or so setting the controllers down will instantly set the controller off.. This can also happen when laying down or even standing still in a pose with the controllers still in-hand or sitting with your hands on your lap. We need a way to either disable this 'feature', or allow us to set the idle timer with a max of never.

You can still not uninstall it directly in the headset...... but it works from the app. I just did that!😁🎉 Horizon Worlds can finally be deleted/removed/uninstalled from your headset!!!

I can't seem to play my vr games as it keeps asking for parents permission and my parent can't get into the app to give permission can anyone help with this please 

As per the title ASW is much slower to kick in since the latest update of the link app on PC. I get quite a lot of stuttering before it activates, it wasn't doing this a few weeks ago.Quest ProWindows 11

Meta has a unique opportunity to strengthen its VR and AR ecosystem through the acquisition and revival of Rec Room.With over 120 million users and an already established foundation in immersive, user-generated content, Rec Room represents a proven platform that aligns directly with Meta’s long-term vision for social virtual spaces. Unlike building a new platform from the ground up, acquiring Rec Room would provide immediate access to a large, engaged community and a vast library of VR-ready experiences.Rec Room’s cross-platform presence (VR, mobile, console, PC and once AR ) also presents an opportunity for Meta to bridge the gap between traditional gaming and immersive technology, bringing more users into its VR and AR ecosystem over time. With relatively small technical adjustments, the platform could be further optimized for Meta’s hardware, increasing headset adoption and overall user retention.Additionally, Rec Room’s creator-driven economy aligns with Meta’s interest in fosterin

Hi everyone,I'm reaching out because I am having issues with my new Meta Quest 3S. I purchased it 6 days ago from the official Meta Store on Mercado Libre.Even though I have already created my Meta Horizon account and activated the headset (which shows up as "connected" in the mobile app), the Meta Web portal does not recognize my device. When I try to contact official support, the website says there is "no support service available for me" because it doesn't see my Quest 3S registered.Mainly, I need help redeeming the Batman: Arkham Shadow bundle. This game was the main reason for my purchase, and despite the promotion being active until 12/31/2026, I haven't received the redemption notification or option in the store.Details for reference:Device: Meta Quest 3S (128GB/256GB).Purchase Source: Official Meta Store (Mercado Libre).Activation Date: 6 days ago.Issue: Device visible in Horizon Mobile App but invisible on Meta Web/Support site.I have already tried restarting the headset and r

Hi, I’m currently using a Meta Quest 3 and mainly play PCVR games through Steam on my PC.Everything had been working fine, but about a week ago I started experiencing severe lag and performance issues in-game. The gameplay has become noticeably unstable compared to before.Nothing significant has changed on my setup as far as I know, so I’m wondering if this could be related to a recent update (either Meta software, Quest firmware, or Steam/PCVR updates).Similar posts are showing up on Reddit as well.Has anyone else experienced similar issues recently, or is there a known fix?Thanks in advance.

I hate to make a new discussion over this topic but at this point meta should be thinking about a port of this in some way. I know developers can send the data over but actually using it for any gameplay outside of a unity development environment is impossible. I've heard rumors of 3rd party apps that can do something similar to meta link via the cable and such but that doesn't sound safe.I enjoy my PCVR experience and all, but losing a large functionality of the headset all because I want to use my link cable so my graphics don't look terrible. (my headset isn't close to the router, so it doesn't have a good connection, and using my computer as a hotspot doesn't boost the quality of the picture. Something like Steam Link or Virtual Desktop[why is this expensive?] is out of the question.)I understand that meta may not think of their headset as being used as a pc extension but so many people do it already, why not add a bit of functionality to the app you seem to neglect? (the wris

I've been happily using my quest 2 for 2 out of 4 years in total. The first 2 years were great! everything in the program felt neccessary and cared for, bugs were looked after. Reports were reviewed, and updates felt like quality. There were ups and downs but in the end everything was fun. These past 2 years have been nothing but a downward spiral. The UI change is weird, Settings misplaced, Lying about support, buggy server statuses, and of course the complete issue of Meta Quest link. What happened? We've done everything the AI supporter did and still you find a new way for us to hack our rigs just so we can last a second longer than 30 minutes.My suggestion: please just go back to the stable versions of both the headset and link app. Your latest version of both are so "stable" they disconnect "so much less". In sarcasm of course. PLEASE Meta please just stick with the stable versions and MAINTAIN THEM. I love my quest 2. But i can't see myself playing much nowadays due to these bugs

Trying to play Lone Echo 2 but at some point, usually after 3-4 minutes after loading save, game completely freezes in the headset, though on the PC monitor game still works. Also Link App bugging and showing me that the headset connected, even though I disconnected it. Is there any solution to it? I'm playing on Quest 2

I've tried everything to get this app to download, but it just won't. It completes the first bar, then gets a little bit of progress, then crashes and tells me to restart (that does nothing). I'm going to explode.

Would be nice if you could place a rectangle on your floor and then resize it, or combine multiple rectangles, resulting in straight lines with right angles, which are hard to get with current paint method

I have now been fighting with meta for 2 months about using my metal wallet to purchase games. We bought one game and now they've decided that there was suspicious activity on the account and they've shut it down. I've spent the whole 2 months contacting the help tasks and they've been telling me very helpful things like "I'm following up to let you know that your case is still under review, and we truly appreciate your patience while we work toward a resolution...Our support team is giving this matter the attention it deserves and coordinating with the necessary departments...We understand how important this is to you and want to ensure that when we follow up, we're providing accurate and helpful information....Although there are no updates just yet, you have our assurance that we'll keep you informed every step of the way."  However, since they've told me this about 17 times and there's no actual information about what they're doing or how I can help. I believe that this is

I have spent the past few months noticing that my Quest 3s will not charge unless the Quest 3s is powered off. I finally decided to contact Meta Support and dealt with one of the rudest Customer Service Representatives I have ever had the dishonor of dealing with.I tried a Software Update, Factory Reset, Boot load, etc. I tried every option from Forums or other Social Media locations.The issue started after a Firmware Update after my 1 Year Warranty expired. So, naturally I bring this to this person's attention and instead, I get told that I can purchase a replacement. I ask to have my ticket escalated, but I'm told that can't be done because it isn't an issue worth escalating. So, an issue brought on by a Meta update can't be fixed because it's outside of my warranty and the ticket can't be escalated?Has anyone else dealt with your Quest not charging unless powered off? If so, how were you able to fix, if you could? Thanks everyone,

i simply cast to my phone and laptop, no other steps to it. how do i fix this, it’s getting annoying bc it’s js pure silence 

i am on my meta quest 2 as i write this, but i am having a hard time adding a new account bc everytime i try its an error.
