Samsung Galaxy XR does not track my eye movements correctly

If the screen appears blurry or items are not selected properly, try aligning the display with your vision or calibrating eye tracking. If you're experiencing issues with eye tracking while using mixed mode (hand and eye aiming), remember that your Samsung Galaxy XR headset switches between hand gesture tracking and eye tracking based on the direction and speed of your hand movements. Follow these steps to optimize the system for smooth operation.
