    Can developers create new gestures for Apple Vision Pro?

    Hi everybody, I'm no developer, but I was wondering: with actual API and whatever Kit Apple shares with them, is it possible to create new gestures for Apple Vision to recognize? For instance, make a fist to close an app, or swipe left or right with two fingers to undo or redo, stuff like that.

    Hi, I’ve noticed that when zooming in on a JPEG with the preview app using pinch to zoom on the trackpad the zooming is very glitchy and not smooth at all. Eventually it stops working completely. This doesn’t appear to be as big an issue during quick look but when the photo is opened in the...

    Hello, I received my MBP 16" M1 Pro in December. I also have another one with the exact same specs from work. Both of them have the same frustrating problem.
