Hi,
We are so glad to announce that Daily OVR free version has released! We hope this free version can help VR users to solve their basic VR needs and collect more ideas from our users. And we will stop the Daily OVR DEMO version.
Here are some differences:

Free version only supports up to 2 opened overlays. (Paid version can support more numbers)
Limited numbers (2) of switch programs on the QuickSwitch panel. If you want to switch more programs, you have to close the overlay and reopen it.
Only one entry of My Favorites
Only one CustomApp
You can only bind an overlay to the RIGHT controller. (cannot bind to the left controller, HMD, tracker)
We hope that you can enjoy it! And if you have any issues, you could tell us via Discord or the steam forum.

ML obj detection hotkey is not available for the first time.
Logcollector.exe cannot collect all files sometimes.
The click action in Input mode doesn't work well. It easily becomes a drag action.

VR keyboard
We've dropped the SteamVR keyboard and made a new one. You can open it by clicking the keyboard button on the overlay toolbar. And you can bind the keyboard to any targets, e.g. world, controllers, HMD. The default position is just below the overlay. And we found that it's a good input experience when you bind the keyboard to the HMD. You must try it out!

ML Object Detection (Experimental feature, NOT A FINAL VERSION)
(Warning: It only works on the NVidia display card. And it will consume some GPU power. Use it with these in mind.) ( Currently, this feature only supports HTC Vive/Vive Pro ) Sometimes you want to open the camera to find your real keyboard, mouse, and monitor. This feature is what you want. When you enable it, it starts finding your real keyboard. We will also add other object types in near feature; something likes cat, dog, your cup...etc. Here are quick steps to enable it. 1. Enable your SteamVR camera. 2. Open the "setting" by clicking the gear icon on the top-right side. 3. Enable object detection 4. Restart Daily OVR 5. There is a new icon - "Detect Obj". Click it to enable the detection. 6. There are some hotkeys for using this feature. * Start/Stop object detection - Long press right controller's grip button * Show/Hide object detection overlays - double-click right controller's grip button * Locate the KYBD/Resume the detection - double-click left controller's grip button 7. Enjoy it!
