As Oculus recently launched the v31 software update for the original Quest and Quest 2 virtual reality headsets, users can also easily send out invitations to friends in the VR world. By reacting in the Messenger messaging application and automatically entering the account password in the browser, the game and application experience between friends will be further improved.
When the player presses a button in a game or application, the general menu can be summoned as usual. But after the v31 software update, you will see a new Invite to Use option next to the Continue and Exit buttons.
If your friend accepts the invitation, you can see them in the menu. This feature will soon be available in Beats Saber, Blaston (VR shooting combat), Demeo, Echo VR (VR shooting), ForeVR Bowl (VR bowling) Wait for the game to be launched.
In addition, games such as Hyper Dash (VR shooting), PokerStars VR (VR social), and Topgolf and Pro Putt (VR golf) will soon follow. In addition to teaming up with friends in the VR world, Oculus also provides the ability to create multiplayer game sessions at any time on the iOS/Android mobile users.
For supported games and applications, you will be able to create a sharing link to invite others to join the group easily, and you will be able to choose the effective time of the link. It is worth mentioning that the v31 software update also brings the functions of saving and auto-filling passwords and unlocking through patterns for the browser application.
As for privacy and security, there is no need to worry about it. Because Oculus said, all credentials are only stored on the local device. In addition, Oculus has added sending/reading receipts to the Messenger messaging app, as well as Reaction Emoji from Facebook. Finally, Quest users may have to wait several weeks before they can usher in the phased v31 software update.
