Owners of a Quest headset will be entitled to a big end-of-year update for Horizon OS, the operating system for Meta’s VR platform. On the menu: improvements in the interface, a revisited clear mode, and… a calendar application.
An update “ huge “, this is how Meta qualifies v71 of the operating system Horizon OS. The headset OS Quest thus offers a fresh look to its interface: the appearance and behavior of the panels, the control bar, the colors of many elements… The light mode has also been improved – rest assured, users who prefer dark mode and who have it activated by default will not suddenly switch to light after installing the software!
Interface repolishing
The Settings app has been significantly overhauled to better reflect options added over the years. The organization is reviewed and “ plus intuitive », promises Meta, who has also arranged so that future options can easily find their rightful place. At the same time, the settings search engine is also improving.
The travel mode of the Quest 2, 3 headsets and the new Quest 3S, first reserved for planes, is now also available by train. An option made for those who want to relax in front of a film, or work with a keyboard, rather than to play: this mode in fact deactivates the operation of the controllers.
A new Calendar app appears, which can connect to Google Calendar and Outlook. Events from Horizon Worlds, Meta’s embryonic metaverse, can also be integrated into this app.
v71 also contains improvements for video sharing to and from the Horizon Mobile app, as well as audio volume management for apps and calls.
