Advanced fixes (Quest)
You can also try updating headset firmware to refresh it/using PTC in Meta Quest app under headset settings. See how to do it below.
Pico fixes
Solution for those using the Pico, looks like as of now only Virtual Desktop and other software outside of picos own software fixes woblliness.

To fix this:

-Launch into Virtual Desktop and connect to your PC
-Click Start SteamVR
-DO NOT START VAIL FROM THE GAMES MENU AT FIRST
-Go to desktop View in SteamVR
-Hit Play on VailVR
-Select "Launch VAIL DXII in OpenXR Mode"
-Check the box that says "Always use this option"
-Hit Play again!

Vail should now run perfectly without any issue for Pico 4! You should now also be able to launch Vail from the VD Apps Menu!
