What's the VIVE XR Elite beta program and how do I join?

The beta program provides early access to upcoming features for VIVE XR Elite. When you join the program you'll get to test new or experimental features and help HTC make VIVE XR Elite better by providing your feedback.

Before joining the beta program, please take note of the following:

After joining the program, you’ll receive beta software as a system update as soon as it becomes available.
You can quit the beta program at any time. The system software will be rolled back to an officially released version.
Switching to beta or rolling back to the official software version will erase all internal storage data, including personal files and system settings. Make sure to back up your files—such as screenshots and screen recordings—before installing the beta or official software version.
