Let's explore each of the options on the **Preferences** settings page below.

## Initial Scene

The "Initial Scene" refers to the scene that starts first when a viewer launches your experience. This setting is particularly useful when you have multiple scenes in your experience and want to make sure that a specific scene is shown first.

## Field of View

This setting controls the field of view, which refers to the extent of the observable environment that is seen at any given moment in your experience.&#x20;

The default value is typically set to 75 degrees and in most cases, it is not necessary to change it.
