Overview
- The v85 update is available to Public Test Channel users, where Quest 3 owners can enable the Surface Keyboard & Touchpad under experimental settings.
- The feature places a virtual keyboard and touchpad on any flat surface, keeps keys anchored as you move, and masks keys beneath your hands for clearer visibility.
- Hands-on tests report accurate, faster two‑hand typing but note fingertip discomfort on hard desks during long sessions and inconsistent touchpad performance.
- The keyboard is currently limited to Quest 3 and is not enabled on Quest 3S, reflecting an early test phase rather than a general release.
- Beyond input, v85 begins replacing Horizon Feed with the Navigator UI, adds an overhauled Ongoing Activities panel, and introduces automated malware scanning, privacy indicators, voice control for 2D windows, and passkey support in the browser.
