Happy new year! We wanted to ring in the new year with a small patch for you all:
## General Improvements
- There’s a new share button on the room details screen of the watch menu. We're hoping this will drive more accurate numbers for statistics around sharing rooms, which we'll be sharing with creators soon!
- We’re happy to report torso and holsters are more stable when looking up or down.
- VR: We’ve also made finger-pressing in the new UI more reliable, especially for quick presses.
- Fixed a shader issue affecting certain avatar outfits.
- Fixed a minor issue where other players wouldn’t get notified when you invite them if you appear offline to them.
- PC: Fixed an issue where the Desktop Sharing Speaker wouldn’t switch input devices.
