Microsoft Mesh app users on Meta Quest 2, 3, and Pro headsets will be able to use their hands to use the app, move around in event environments, and interact with objects. Motion controllers will continue to be supported, and users can switch between using controllers or their hands while using the app. A tutorial on how to use hand interactions can be found in Menu -> Help -> Hand tutorial in the Quest Mesh app. The tutorial will also play when hand usage is detected for the first time during a meeting or event session in the Mesh app. To use the feature in Mesh, hand tracking on Quest device needs to be turned on via Settings -> Movement settings.
