Context:

Meta has published a new advertisement for the Quest 3 headset, showing a person in a car garage multitasking with multiple windows. The person is watching a YouTube video in one window and talking in a WhatsApp conversation in another window. There are a few other windows floating around the garage room.

Here’s the problem: you can’t do that on a Quest headset. The current software is limited to three simultaneous applications, and they are displayed in one shared side-by-side view. You can adjust the size and positioning of each window, but they are locked together in the same view.
