Does hand tracking on Meta Quest 3S work with all VR apps?

Hand tracking on the Meta Quest 3S is not supported by all VR apps. Only apps that have specifically integrated this feature allow its use. Before launching an app, it’s important to check whether it supports hand tracking in the Meta Horizon Store.

1. Check compatibility in the Meta Horizon Store

To check compatibility:

1. Visit the app’s page on the Meta Horizon Store.
2. Look for the “Hand tracking” label under the “Input Methods” section.

If this label is missing, you’ll need to use controllers to interact with the app.

2. Use hand tracking with compatible apps

To enjoy hand tracking:

1. Enable the feature in the headset’s settings.
2. Launch a compatible app as listed in the Meta Horizon Store.

Once in the app, set your controllers aside and use your hands to interact.

3. Be aware of current limitations

Although hand tracking provides an immersive experience, it has some limitations:

• Variable accuracy: fast or complex motions may not be detected precisely.
• Lighting conditions: a well-lit environment is essential for optimal performance.
• Restricted functionality: some advanced interactions may require controllers.
