Anyone can opt into the SteamVR Beta. Instructions are available here.

SteamVR:
  • Added IVROverlay VROverlayFlags_MinimalControlBar. This lets desktop replacement apps opt out of control bars.
  • Fix right Quest 3S controller render model defaulting to a CV1 style controller.
  • Speculative fix for crash when updating firmware.
  • Default to turning on "Prop_Hmd_AllowsClientToControlTextureIndex" and "Prop_ForceSystemLayerUseAppPoses_Bool" for many Direct Mode HMD drivers, such as those from Pico, DPVR, and the HTC Vive Pro 2, which significantly reduces frame judder at low framerates and during hitches.
