Option to disable the pinch noise?

Bigbobby

I can’t find a setting for it.

It happens even when pinching is disabled, and it makes using the elliptical machine hell because it detects a pinch every single forward (and every single back) motion even when you’re not pinching.

Hello, sorry for the inconvenience! You can turn off "In-App Hand Tracking" and see if it works.

Thanks for the response!

The in app hand tracking is essential, because I’m not using controllers when I’m on the treadmill/bike/eliptical/etc.

I’m just wondering about stopping the pinging sound every time it detects a pinch. There are other fixes but I think disabling the ping sound would be the simplest—it leaves hand use intact when you need to adjust something, but doesn’t require a whole rework of the very aggressive pinch detection.

Hi,

If you don't want to hear the sound effect, please turn off "Sound Effect" in SKYBOX's Global Settings.

When playing a video, you can hide and show your hands by tapping "No Pinch" or "Allow Pinch" on the Mini Bar. You can also put your left palm towards yourself, pinch with your index finger and thumb of your left hand to hide/show your hands.

Hope that helps.

Thanks, disabling the sound effect in the main settings worked.

I never would have found that option though. The app needs to consolidate their settings in one menu, because right now there’s like 4 distinct settings menus and it’s not intuitive that there’s any clear benefit to siloing some settings rather than just categorizing them effectively in one menu.
