If you guys made a limited supply of Quest 3 headsets with direct HDMI hookup and a separate power cable that hooked to the cord, you would sell a ton of these and would find out that you need to produce more than a limited supply. There's a huge population of people on systems that don't have USB-C. Sorry, but the decision is absurd to go all USB-C. Like everyone is going to go out and buy a new computer? Who made this decision? It's like the US president telling everyone they need to be on electric cars before the power grid is even in place. It sounds great on paper. Sorry, but my money is staying in my pocket till Meta has a more practical solution then forcing me to go out and by a whole new computer when my current system rips though just about every game I throw at it, and runs flawless. What a shame. I'll throw my money in the stock market.

Ability to do factory reset while saving your Wifi info and user settings so you don't have to keep entering it again. And it would be nice if there was an option to not erase the saved games. Just a reset of everything else. You guys have an amazing product. But as a long time gamer (almost 50y old) I've seen a LOT of great game company's and manufactures fall off the face of the earth because they didn't communicate with their end users and they didn't maintain compatibility. Software/driver quality is almost everything and maintaining compatibility with older operating system is what makes me choose a company or never look back. I understand why you guys went with USB-C, it does everything. But there are too many people who have systems that are 4 or 5 years old and running rock solid with today's games. They are not going to run out and buy a new computer. I feel like you guys limited your sales by not providing a direct video connection option for slightly older systems. Everybody has video cards, but not everyone has USB-C ports. And for those who want the VR for their steam games, if Meta's reason to go with USB-C option was for the charging aspect, you could have just provide a long cord to charge the unit that could be attached to the video cable, and used a video cable such as HDMI. It's the difference between me keeping the unit, or returning it. I'm not running out and buying a new computer. I know you guys are aiming for the future with USB-C, but almost everyone I talk to today is without one. Seems like a sales bottle neck looking forward. Even the guys at Frys and Best Buy are stumped on what to do. I'm wondering if I can get the performance by sticking in a USB-C controller in my PCIe 1x slot on the motherboard. I'm testing it when my expansion card comes in this week, If it's a no go, I have to return the Quest 3 I'm about to buy in the next week or so.

It would be very helpful to make the through cameras better (360 degrees or 180) and add a live streaming option. This would give the ability to broadcast mr games and surroundings for bloggers. They would be worn as a permanent device. This would greatly expand the possibilities and open up new industries.

I took my Quest 3 on a vacation trip leaving the controllers at home because I mainly use it to watch YouTube videos using hand tracking only. I had problems with tracking and I did a factory reset and now Quest 3 requires controllers to set it up, and I can't skip that step! Why? Add a button so we can skip the setup without controllers, please!!!

It's such a simple, Basic feature that should be on everyone's devices... I don't understand why we can't remove uninstalled apps or games from library that aren't using anymore

Please give us the ability to have video calls the same as Mark Zuckerberg did when he showed off codec avatars in 2023.
This would of course only be possible on the Quest Pro right now but hopefully in new Quests going forward from 2025 - Quest Pro 2, Quest 4, if they have eye and face tracking.

I love the room mapping and furniture settings on quest 3, i only wish there was a way to increase the distance where they get visible while in full vr. Right now it's way too close of a detection. Maybe a customization menu like the one for the play area borders that detect both helmet and joypads, allowing to set what distance they become visible would be very nice.

I contacted Meta support about a problem with the trigger button sensor not working properly when using the Quest3 controller. (I have my finger on it, but the sensor frequently recognizes that my finger is off) They shared with me how to reset the controller, but even when I followed the instructions, the actual behavior differed from what was described. They said like this: <How to reset the Quest 3 controller to factory settings 1. On the right controller, hold down the A button and tap the Home (meta logo) button 5 times. ※For the left button, use the X button and the menu button. 2. The LED will flash orange/white while the reset to factory defaults is being performed. 3. The LED will turn light blue during startup. 4. Once the startup is complete, the controller can be used again as normal. However, the lamp never glowed orange or blue when operated as described, but only glowed the same way as if another button had been pressed. I repeatedly asked them if the operating procedures were correct, only to have them insist that they were. I also asked them to show me a video of the actual operation, but they refused to do so. Do you all follow the above procedure and does the relevant function work properly? I don't know if this is only a problem with the JP version or not, but no matter how many times I try, the lamp never glows a different color than usual.

I just can’t understand why the meta quest app doesn’t support landscape orientation. Every time I open the app on my iPad after I’ve been using every other app in landscape I have to turn my iPad around and change my chosen comfortable position. It’s so frustrating. I literally hate it. It’s been so many years now and it hasn’t been fixed. Like please fix this. It makes absolutely no sense.

I strongly suggest a hand gesture feature to temporarily pause hand input when using hand tracking. It becomes very frustrating when I accidentally interact with a virtual screen or something I didn’t intent to because I was interacting with irl objects. It’s way too easy to have this happen. The app Immersed has solved this already by adding a gesture that does just that. I love Immersed for that but this should be a system wide meta feature for hand tracking. Thanks

Don't really post much but wanted to say Meta's issue with privacy of mesh data is crap IMO. As far as security and privacy, to me it's the same as a video or picture considering the photogrammetry technology. If we can take pictures or videos and store them as files, the spatial data lies within those images anyways. The idea that the spatial data is a privacy or whatever concern is moot now. To roughly scan a room, house or yard and import that to an designer, architectural or landscape app would cut days and weeks off of projects and without the need for expensive lidar, etc. So much time is wasted drawing walls and boundaries in apps that are trying to work around this misguided policy. META, allow developers access to the data and let's get on with our day.

Please add ability to connect Quest 3 to Wi-Fi from App WITHOUT USING QR CODE. My Quest 3 has a broken depth sensor and I removed it. Because of this I have permanent tracking lost issue and none of the cameras are turning on and this prevents controllers from pairing and I can’t skip initial controller setup. I tried using Meta Quest Developer Hub from PC and it asks to update software on my Quest 3 BUT I CANT CONNECT IT TO WIFI because you removed this option from iOS app and added QR code option. It was so simple for Quest 2 when you just enter network info in app and it connects headset to the internet, bring this back for Quest 3, please!

I am in the process of building my first world. Really surprised that there is no "brick" texture for shapes. Meta, please add brick texture. I need it for my world which is set in New York. It is key to what I am trying to accomplish.

I think it’d be cool if I could go into a venue like a bar or an entertainment club of some sort in meta horizon worlds and play guitar live (my own music) I tried routing my audio using vb audio but it doesn’t seem to be working anymore. Maybe…. Have some kind of audio driver recognition for audio interfaces because I can plug my interface into the headset however the headset doesn’t do anything other than power it up as far as I know. Then route that signal to meta horizon worlds.

If I'm signed into a device, that device should not be prompting me every time I turn it on to confirm it is me. My wife has a second account on my Quest 3, but I'm the primary user. It annoys me so much that I need to click a prompt everytime I turn on the device. CAN YOU IMAGINE IF YOU HAD A PROMPT ASKING IF IT IS YOU, EVERY TIME YOU TURN ON YOUR PHONE?

I recently found out that you can't delete chats or individual messages on quest 2 or 3 chat messaging! It really needs to be fixed. Sometimes we want to get rid of messages and not have them hanging around forever!

I just got my Quest 3. I have severe visual impairments. When using the universal menu, moving it closer causes it to disappear well before I can distinguish UI elements. I have text size set all the way up, but the UI is generally too small. While fine tuning the universal menu is all fine and good, 3rd party apps will not be helped by this. Users with visual impairment are already used to getting close and losing FOV, so a quick full zoom in would be a massive help. (Maybe with reduced movement sensitivity to allow examing things more easily while zoomed in) I've wanted to enjoy VR for years but without these 2 functions, I basically can't use a headset at all.
