  • Publication number: 20230368475
    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that facilitate the use of application content such as text, images, video, and 3D models in XR environments. In some implementations, a first device (e.g., an HMD) provides an indicator corresponding to a content item currently/recently used on a second device (e.g., a mobile phone), where the indicator is positioned based on a position of that second device. A user may visit a website on their mobile phone and, while using their HMD, see a view having a depiction of their mobile phone with a nearby indicator (e.g., an affordance) for accessing that same website on the HMD. The affordance may be positioned based on (e.g., next to) the mobile phone such that its positioning provides an intuitive user experience or otherwise facilitates easy understanding of the use of content item on the other device.
