Wristwatch Button Customization + Keyboard key macro on the wrist
--Wristwatch Customization
The wristwatch is still an experimental thing, it is good, but to be really useful it should have a way to customize the functions, size and position of the buttons.
Each person has a priority for each type of function they want easy access.
Here is a reddit post I made exemplifying the MIC ON/OFF as the main button because we don't have a simple way to push to talk and/or turn the mic on and off.
**Notifications are extremly easy to access, making the function useless in the wristwatch

---Keyboard key macro on the wrist
Another very, very useful thing would be able the custom macro creation to emulate a keyboard key or a combination of keys and mouse clicks with delay option. So we could mute the microphone on specific applications (Discord, teamspeak, Skype), take screenshots (using the delay as a photo timer) and other things in an easy way.

The wrist watch vanishes for me as soon as I close the oculus settings menus. I'm assuming that is because it is still beta. Would be nice to have it in the home, and even in games.
Played Seeking Dawn last night for the first time, and they had forearms and hands ingame. If the watch could be expanded into a forearm bracer as we add/toggle desired features THAT would be COOL!

FPS counter would also be nice to have on the wrist watch.

This would help so much in showing friends VR multiplayer. I hate trying to explain the game to them while also broadcasting to the entire chat lobby (looking at you lone echo/onward).

This would be amazing. I never stream VR games because I can't mute my mic whenever I need to.
