Meta has rebuilt Instagram and Facebook for its Quest headsets

At its annual Meta Connect event on Wednesday, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg announced that the company has rebuilt its social apps for mixed reality.

"We've got all new Instagram and Facebook experiences to bring your feeds and your Reels with you into mixed reality," Zuckerberg said. "A really nice interface so you can lean back and enjoy your content on nice, big screens."

The official announcement comes as Zuckerberg announced back in June that the company was testing a way for users to watch Reels on its Quest headsets.

By redesigning its social network VR apps to be better on Quest, Meta is working to tie its different apps and systems together.

The company also announced it has rebuilt Meta Horizon OS for spatial computing, bringing better support for 2D apps like YouTube, Facebook, and Instagram, and that it has added dynamic spatial audio for panels, which are the rectangular surfaces that display 2D app content in Quest.
