Meta Horizon Managed Headsets (MHMS) vs. Consumer Meta Headsets: What’s Different After the Latest Update

However, your experience will differ depending on how your headset is configured:

• MHMS (Meta Horizon Managed Services)
• Consumer headsets

Key Difference: Update Timing & Experience

MHMS Headsets (Managed by Us)

• We manage and configure your headset
• OS updates are delayed before reaching your device
• Your interface may look different from newer tutorials or videos
• You will not experience the new navigation changes immediately

This delay is intentional to ensure stability and avoid disruptions to your workflow.

Consumer Headsets (Standard Meta Account)

• Receive updates directly from Meta
• Experience the new interface immediately
• May notice significant changes, including:
  • New navigation flows
  • Changes to how settings are accessed
  • Different ways to return to apps (e.g., using the Meta button)
  • Updated app management (e.g., uninstall now labeled differently)

What This Means for You

• If you're using an MHMS headset:
  • Your experience will remain consistent for now
  • Changes will be introduced later in a controlled rollout
• If you're using a consumer headset:
  • You may notice a different and sometimes unfamiliar interface
  • Navigation may feel different at first (e.g., accessing settings or returning to apps)

Important Note on Navigation Changes (Consumer Devices)

With the new Meta interface:

• Pressing the Meta button brings up your apps and system menu
• Some settings menus can feel harder to exit until you get used to the new flow
• Certain actions (like uninstalling apps) are now accessed differently
