Zoom's new standalone app designed for Meta Quest headsets enables users to join or host virtual reality meetings, not limited by subscription type. Existing functionality only allowed access through Meta's Horizon Workspaces and required a paid subscription. The app supports multiple Quest models, such as Quest 3 and Quest Pro, and allows visibility of other participants across various platforms. Additionally, it includes passthrough mode, which enhances the user experience by integrating virtual elements with the real-world environment while utilizing the headset.
Zoom has launched a standalone app for Meta Quest headsets, allowing users to join or host meetings in virtual reality as their Meta Avatar, with support for all Zoom licenses.
Previously, Zoom's app for Quest was only accessible through Meta's Horizon Workspaces, limited to paid subscribers. The new app supports free and paid Zoom licenses.
Users can see other participants regardless of their platform, be it desktop, mobile, or web. Meta emphasizes the passthrough mode, blending virtual and real-world environments.
