      When I went through the setup initially I adjusted it with the headset on and it showed IPD numbers on screen between clicks if you moved it very slowly so the software may already be compensating already and the clicks may just be the points where it shifts the entire screen rendering? Just a theory.

    IPD is very important for a good VR experience so i don't understand why there is not a beter system for this on the Quest 2, especially while this product is ment to introduce the massis to it. Now a lot of people will think VR is uncomfortable and give up on VR. Oculus should make software to improve IPD soon!

    A trick that I found useful for people with IPD's over the 68 max on the Quest 2, that also removes the black vertical bars that you can only see when have that upper range of IPD's is to simply add the glasses spacer, regardless if you need it. It changes the angle that the light is bent into your eyes by moving them slightly away from the lenses

      Why the hell didn't they just make it a slider? It would work on the same principle and the coding would hardly be that much harder to do? It's like they wanted to give people reasons to not like what they were doing? The IPD is one of the bigger reasons I don't intend to get one, the lcd screen is another as is the Facebook thing. I used to have a Facebook account linked to my headset but I have stopped using it. It's not the invasion of privacy that bothers me so much as the damaging social engineering they are engaged in.

    I doubt this will be seen, but the software *does* update the middle ipd. It won't show in the hmd the true ipd, but you can verify this by using a sideloaded app that displays it. The headset has a potentiometer inside of it despite only having 3 positions.

    Ugh, how could they make this mistake and think it's ok. They wouldn't even had to include a slider, just remove the bumps from the adjustment and give it continuous friction.

    This was a good tip and the screen certainly has less ghosting for me when I set it half way on #2, which is more in line with my IPD measurement. Perhaps Facebook were trying to make the setup as simple as possible for a mainstream audience who may not go to the lengths of trying to measure their IPD. So I guess I can understand the concept of "pick the clearest setting of 3". Hopefully one day the headsets will actually be able to automatically measure this and help the user pick the right setting. Come to think of it they could probably get the front camera's to accurately measure this. Imagine having an option say on the phone app that walks you through how to make the oculus measure your IPD, and the measurement appears on the phone.

      With 7 practical settings (3x hard locked positions + 3x "in-between" positions + an additional ≈70mm position if you put a piece of styrofoam or similar in-between the lenses to continually push them outwards) it works damn near perfectly for basically EVERYONE with an IPD +/- 2mm within the Quest 2's minimum & maximum, meaning this is really a total non-issue that's only being blown out of proportion by the uninformed.
      And most importantly, this IPD adjustment system is massively, DRAMATICALLY CHEAPER to manufacture than the OG Quest & Rift's fully moving, dual display setups.
      Yeah sure, getting the lenses to stay put in one of the "in-between" IPD settings takes a bit more time & effort than just switching between the 3x locked positions, but it's not THAT much more!... We're talking about like ≈20-30 seconds vs ≈5-10 seconds here... That's it. 🤷‍♂️

    The 3rd setting 68 works perfect for me and is way better than the Rift S was however being able to see the edges of the screen is very distracting and drives me crazy. If it was just dark line it would be fine but it appears like a bright blue line on each side of my peripheral vision ahhh...still totally worth though!

    I’m around 69, 70 IPD so naturally use setting 3. Still looks absolutely fantastic but I agree there is a slight (very slight) ghosting effect in some places. Not enough to put me off at all though. unfortunately couldn’t use this tip either even if I wanted to as it means I would have to push beyond 68 and it doesn’t go any further unless
    I wanted to break
    It haha! 😂
    In all seriousness though a great headset and my only big issue so far is the greys on darker games compared to the quest 1 probably due to the quest 2 having LCD.
    I find the quest 1 a LOT better for those types of games due to the OLED panel.

Getting some rubber lens protectors though so I can wear my glasses for the meantime. Sucks to get a headset and then feel like I have to wait for something else to even use my glasses without damaging the lenses. Wish they included some rubber stoppers to go around the lenses by default tbh... They're prob going to get a lot of RMA requests due to people damaging the lenses so easily.

    Glad I still have the Quest 1. IPD slider, OLED screens, better head strap options, the ability to go up to 150% resolution, better battery life and its black so its not going to get scuffed up. Honestly 90Hz would be nice but I've never had a problem with 72Hz, and I don't think 90Hz is worth losing six other features...especially the OLED screens at 150% resolution; sharper image and deeper colors. Love it!
    To be fair I do like the Quest 2 for different reasons; mainly the 90Hz and the stronger processor, but hopefully they combine the best of both in a Quest 3 version and add an external 20,000mA battery to the back of the head strap for 15 hours of use and some more balance.

    Ive been wondering if this could work, Great info! Unfortunately I don't think there will ever be a software update to accommodate, fix, or adjust the issue of the built-in 3 IPD settings of the Quest 2 (unless it actually does have a conductive slider or the like, inside like the the OG quest) due to the fundimental differences between the original 2 pannel design and the single panel of the Q2 (I believe the OG Quest originally only had the conductive strip for the IPD slider, solely to gather info on users, but they figured "why not just add a UI element to show users their IPD for extra convenience", after launch and it's discovery and use by a side quest app that did the same lol) If the Quest 2 actually did have that slider inside, I bet they wouldn't have added the 3 positions, letting it slide freely for the whole range, and just use the same IPD UI of the OG Quest w/ incremental software adjustment. I would guess they used a cheaper/ simpler, standard 3 posion switch to tell the single (non-moving) LCD pannel where the lenses are so it can adjust the screen accordingly. I could be wrong, but there's no way to know for sure until we see a tare-down. This problem is one of the nails in the Quest 2 coffin for me personally, you can guess the other big one lol. If anyone can confirm what's inside/ how it works, a bunch of ppl would be very grateful!

    When I first got my Quest on the 16, I was able to switch in between IPDs and the display would actually show "IPD 60" or "61", etc., as in between settings. Now, it only say 62 or 58 without showing anything in between.
    But the display does still "shift" as if the IPD changed in between settings, so for some reason, they've disabled the onscreen prompt and while they say it's "58", it clearly is not when you're in between settings. Because pushing further to actually reach 58, the screen changes again to adjust the IPD.

What is kind of weird is I tried all three and even the highest one I could see ok with but with that same discomfort. I guess it's good to just get into that sweet spot more. Maybe you could add a little piece of tape to make it not fall out when your nose bumps it around. People are saying does it change where the screen is at each setting if so I wonder if when you move it between 58 and 63 would it give you more FOV moving it from smaller to larger or larger to smaller from start point.
