Oculus Rift S and Rift
Welcome to the Oculus Rift S and Rift feedback forum! This is the location to provide all your feature requests and ideas for the Oculus Rift platform. We're looking forward to hearing from you on the following areas of the product:
- Dash: Oculus Dash is the in-VR command center the pops up when you hit the Oculus button on your Touch controller. Dash allows you to access PC Desktop apps, your VR Library, and other system settings and services from anywhere in VR.
- Desktop App: This is the out-of-VR Oculus application on your PC that allows you to do things like browse the store, manage your settings, and view your friends list, among other things.
- General: Use this category for any feedback that doesn’t fit neatly into one of the other more specific categories.
- Home: This is your customizable in-VR home where you can show off your unique style and decorations.
- Store: The place where all VR app purchasing takes place. The Store category covers both the out-of-VR and in-VR stores.

FYI Only - Google Maps Very Unstable In Dash
Google Maps is flaky at best in Dash. Sometimes commands work, most times they don't and with no particular pattern. Also, the zoom control with the joy stick only gets smooth in Chrome if hardware acceleration is activated in settings. This is not good because HA screws up YouTube sound synchronization (a known problem). Also the street view icon it totally erratic both on and off as is picture activation. Also highlighting text for copy and paste is totally erratic.

Fix the reflection map on the achievment panels.
It has a weird high contrast line in there which is really obvious, and it waves around distractingly/unrealistically, relative to your head movement.

Change window resolution when resizing
Since most of the desktop function from inside dash will be used to browser the web, it would be amazing if windows can change resolution when being resolution. As most of the web is responsive these days, the web would automatically adapt to lower resolution and display mobile-like version, therefore making even small and distant windows possible in VR.

Collectibles/Loot Box
I dislike the idea of "loot crates" even if they are unpaid. It seems silly to force us to wait to create our ideal environment. It isn't rewarding in the slightest.
I'd say the only acceptable scenario for collectibles is through unlocking them with in-game achievements that would look way fancier than the paper trophies we currently have.
Another case would be receiving game objects/models for use in home upon purchase of said game.
ie: superhot character model for getting 'red' on all the real-time trials

The Make New Friends option in the Home desktop app should be easily accessable with dash while in a game.

When holding an object allow deletion by throwing the object
When picking up and editing objects, allow deletion of objects by throwing throw them. The way the objects stop in space after letting go is jarring.

Hot key list attached to keyboard
Adding a costumizable hot key list for each program that uses the keyboard. This makes using applications that use hot keys heavily, possible to use in VR.

personalised ui navigation
I use alot of programs such as 3ds max/photoshop/solidworks and it would be nice to add those shortcuts to the main ui. Also it would be a nice idea to have the ui to slight hover towards your hand once you scroll your hand over so you can get a better feeling to what you want to select.

Use Touchscreen keyboard instead of on screen keyboard
Using touch keyboard would be more better for oculus touch and it has more input option than just normal keyboard

Issue: mouse pointer speed doubles while Rift desktop app is open
When I start Oculus app (without using Rift), my mouse pointer starts moving about twice as fast. As soon as I close it, the mouse goes back to normal.
It should be noted that I am using Mouse Without Borders app and it only happens when moving mouse in remote mode. When I am using physical mouse, its speed is the same whether Oculus app is open or not.

Allow launching of installed apps from the Store
When browsing store listings, it would be useful, for installed apps, to be able to launch them there and then, instead of having to go to the library.
There have been a number of times when I've been browsing the store that I decided to stop browsing, and have wanted to launch an installed game there and then.
Currently the user has to go to the library, and find the game they want to launch. This takes longer, as the user was already on the app / game they wanted to launch when browsing the store.

Standard 3D navigator for the editor.
Give objects the standard 3d compass to move and rotate precisely on a specific axis. Including a snap measurement for even more precision.
Would also be nice to be a giant while editing your home from outside/above.

Desktop window hides Dash window - make the "center stage" dash window jut upward
The desktop window hides whatever dash window/app has been set in the "center stage" area that's marked with a diamond. It could be useful to have that dash app jut upward, like a card emerging from a pack of cards, in order to be able to interact with it without having to constantly close and open the desktop window.
This seems especially useful because whatever has taken that "center stage" is probably more important than the stuff dashed to the sides.

Dash doesn't allow the safe zone to work or the sensors. Also no image on the oculus itself. Have to revert to older OS, it works again then
Dash is broken for some.
