Does anyone know if this YouTube fix has been already implemente in the current VisionOS 2.1 Beta?

Is there any way to perform updates like this without putting it on? It seems pretty annoying to have to put it on just to navigate to settings, tell it to update, then take it off again.

This might be my favourite thing ever said about the Vision Pro, because it perfectly explains why it will never be a successful standalone product.

Imagine this being said about any other device - a phone, a laptop, a desktop, a watch - that's it's too annoying to use to install an update.

I imagine they mean so that it is ready to go when they want to use it…

My frustration with you tube lately, hasn’t been it crashing. It’s been that the YouTube player volume drops to almost nothing every 40 seconds or so for no apparent reason

Yeah, I found the same process annoying when using an Oculus, because you have to go out of your way to put it on just to use it for about 20 seconds and take it back off. (far more annoying when I had an Oculus because you’d have to set up the controllers too, though) I guess I would just have to be more normal about updates and schedule them for that night while using it for something else.

It keeps guest profile for 30 days.
