@KarstenS80 good feedback! If you haven't already, I'd recommend hopping over to our UserVoice channel and leaving these ideas there (ideas for these features may already exist, so it may be as simple as adding your vote to those existing ideas). Our product teams actively look at submissions there, so doing so will help us better gauge demand!

- Passthrough Shortcut - You can now enter Passthrough to see your real world surroundings at any time. Once you’ve enabled the feature, double tap the side of your headset to enter Passthrough. When you're finished, double tap again to return to VR.
I'm currently crosstesting a Vive Cosmos.
There are 2 things about their pass through on demand that are very useful and which I would like to see in the Quest too in some ways.
1.) Half Pass through: The virtual view gets faded out a bit and the pass though image gets added to it.
2.) Other pass through modes: Beside the camera view the Cosmos offers a "green lines" mode. In this mode you don't see the camera image, but the borders of your RL environment.
I absolutely love this combination to sort myself in my room while playing Half-Life: Alyx.
Have made a picture to show:
The big rectangle is my TV with my Playstation camera. Under the TV is my lowboard with stuff. On the right side you see a shelf with other stuff.

@gregor616 @ShawnQuest3 and anyone else who was unable to see the Passthrough Shortcut option while on v15 earlier: the team found that there was a slight hitch in the feature showing up for everyone and made a quick adjustment to correct it. If you give your headset another reboot or two, you should see it now. Let me know if you still have problems!

@ShowbizDonkey
Sorry if I've overseen something or this has been asked before...
But is it possible to configure the six "quick start" buttons (Apps) ?
They seem to be random.
Thanks in advance!

As always, if you don't see one of the listed features after receiving a software update, you should give your headset a quick reboot or two. This can sometimes kick things into gear to make sure you're seeing all the new stuff. For those of you who have enabled the passthrough shortcut and can't seem to get it to work, I just want to be clear that you need to double tap the side of the headset, not a designated button. I personally recommend the using the right side of the headset. Please let me know if you're still having issues either seeing or using this feature after trying my recommendations.
