On March 10th, according to data miner "Lunayian" on the X platform, it was discovered in the recently released v63 firmware source code for Meta Quest headsets that Meta is testing improvements to the user experience of third-party Android applications. This includes the ability to pin third-party Android apps to the Dock base.
Currently, Meta has quietly opened up this functionality, signaling that the Quest headsets can now run multiple third-party Android applications simultaneously on the same screen.。
Previously, using third-party Android apps on Meta Quest headsets had strict limitations. Users could only use one third-party Android app at a time, and simultaneous opening of multiple third-party apps on the same screen was not supported. However, with the update to version v63, users with compatible devices can now benefit from these improvements.
According to previous reports, Meta's Chief Technology Officer, Andrew Bosworth, mentioned that the company is undergoing a "core UI infrastructure overhaul" for its Meta Quest headsets. The goal is to provide users with a better user experience and a "richer environment."
