Meta has rolled out another free update to its Meta Quest 3 VR headset in the shape of update v68, and with it come some minor tweaks to graphics and download speeds, as well as a new essential app for people who need a hand decorating their home.

Your Meta Quest 3 can already help you to construct furniture – as shown in a Meta Quest 3 advert that I can’t seem to escape right now – and now Meta’s new Layout app will help you arrange it too. You can use it to measure your existing furniture or spaces in your home, place virtual approximations of new furniture or gadgets you’re looking to buy (so you can double-check if that 65-inch TV does indeed fit where you want it to), and even access helpful features like a leveling tool to checking if your pictures are hung straight.

You can use it to measure your existing furniture or spaces in your home, place virtual approximations of new furniture or gadgets you’re looking to buy (so you can double-check if that  like – and might have saved a few moments of panic when we found that some items fitted in rather more ‘snuggly’ than we were expecting.

Once your Meta Quest 3 updates to v68, Layout will appear in your App Library. While it might not be a tool I use everyday I know it’ll be handy, and I’m excited to see what other apps and features Meta will add next.
