WhatsApp to bring support for Meta Quest VR headsets

Washington DC, 19/6: After introducing the multi-device link feature, WhatsApp is planning to offer Virtual Reality (VR) experience on Meta’s Quest series VR headset in the near future.

In the latest WhatsApp Android beta 2.23.13.6, the company has offered the Meta Quest option in the multi-device link feature, reported WABetaInfo, a WhatsApp community blog.

 

There is no word how the new experience will be but, it is widely reported that people will be able to link existing Quest VR headsets similar to how users can connect with phones, computers, and tablets. And, Quest device owners will be able to view message notifications without any need to use any hand gestures. It will be similar to how compatible Ray-Ban Stories Smart Glasses can read out messages and also be able to send end-to-end encrypted messages with less effort.
