List of Native Apps for Apple Vision Pro

[fatTribble]

Just a bit of a random thought. I find myself regularly checking for app updates and any new apps. It reminds me so much of when the iPhone was new. An update to an app could be a big deal with new features or even a redesign. I’m excited to see where things will go, but I’m definitely impressed with what’s already available. It’s a good time to be a geek. 🤓🖖

I'm the same way - checking that web page all the time. Looking in the App store for new cool VP apps. Searching for compatibility added to apps not ready for native VP - but that I use on other devices.

Juno for YouTube appears to be better than using Safari. https://apps.apple.com/us/app/juno-for-youtube/id6476961640

I was holding off on purchasing but couldn't stand using Safari anymore. Juno for YouTube has been great.

Any F1 fans out there, you need to try Vroom (currently TestFlight). It does require an f1 TV subscription.

For me, this is probably the best app so far on AVP, just incredible.

forScore (sheet music reader) has released a visionOS version.

MAN - wish I would have seen this before the race - like - you had posted it before the race LOL. Found the TestFlight link in the Dev’s Reddit. Here’s the link in case anyone needs it. SUPER cool this exists as who knows how long it will take F1 to enable the video app.

Just wanted to post a little plug for my app, AirLauncher. It was built for anyone frustrated with having to constantly setup your workspace every day, jumping between pages and into the compatibility apps section. Instead, just create shortcuts for each app and launch them all from your single dashboard. I made the app name start with an "A" to be listed first intentionally, since it is meant to be the app to launch all your other apps.

This looks pretty cool! Where do you get your list from? I have apps that installed not on the list 😔

Would be great to have the link. I did a search to try to find an invite and got a message the “Beta was full”. This is something I really need.

Edited to add the GitHub link for all beta’s. Could help us all:

I’m right there with you! I really hope they open it up to more testers or release it soon. I’ve been waiting for this since I got the device. The iPad version of the Jump RDP client works with a trackpad but the trackpad and your eyes can fight for control of the mouse in the system you’ve connected to. The iPad version of the OpenVPN app works great so connecting to the VPN at the office isn’t the main issue and Jump RDP works OK enough for quick things but if it’s a more involved task I’m running upstairs for my MacBook.

If you notice it’s back open again please post back in here. I’ll start checking myself but can only do it in the morning before work (about 7:40 AM Eastern) or when I’m back home from work (between 5:30 PM an 6:30 PM Eastern depending on what I’ve got going that day) Monday through Friday. If I notice it’s opened back up I’ll do the same.

Supercut for Netflix is solid.

If you like airplanes, check out Voyager, and pick a busy airport. Pretty cool to watch takeoffs and landings.

Another plug for Voyager. I installed it last night and see that I'm going to be spending a lot of time in this app. It shows the airport you've chosen and the surrounding area on a round platter that you can move. You can look straight down if you bring it close, or you can get up and walk around it. Arriving and departing aircraft are rendered in blue, with blue trails. Tap on an airplane to see a mini HUD with airspeed, altitude, type, origin, and destination. I also like the way the app lets you choose from multiple ATC feeds from liveatc.net.

Masters app pretty awesome if you are a golf fan during live play.

On a whim I just checked and the beta is open again. I already had TestFlight installed, followed the link given above and was able to download it!!!!!!

I noticed that the Paramount+ App is now a native Vision Pro App. Not sure if I missed it earlier.

 

[FireFish]

Somehow Apple says I bought the Things app for Apple Vision Pro for over $30 which I returned within the 2 week window (keep in mind I've already paid over $100 for the iPhone, iPad and Mac OS versions, since unlike any other vendor, they actually charge for cross-platform apps) and I know I didn't.

Total BS.

Thanks for this! It’s my favorite streaming app. 🖖

This looks pretty cool! Where do you get your list from? I have apps that installed not on the list 😔

It is manually curated for now, at some point I am going to add a submit app button for users/developers to submit apps that aren't on the list. Also a lot of visionOS one-off apps aren't getting the full developer treatment, so they just don't have a launch url defined - so those will always have to be shortcuts launched. I am hoping for major visionOS shortcut improvements this WWDC, so that should make the shortcut option a bit better than it is currently.

Today I spent quite a long time exploring the Museas app. I’m really blown away! The images are of very good quality. Each comes with its own brief audio commentary. I’ve visited many museums but it’s not my passion. The average audio time of around a minute is perfect for me.

Selected paintings are showcased in their own immersive environment for that single painting! Seeing the painting displayed that way is stunning!

The app is free. I have no affiliation with the author but I did tip him a drink.

Another reason I like coming here: I wasn't aware of this app. I visit the App Store on the AVP at least once a week, but I don't think Apple does a good job highlighting interesting new apps. I'm still looking for a good visualizer that works with the Music app. The ones I've tried have been disappointing. There are a couple that look promising, but I'm not about to pay $9.99 unless I can try it first.

Totally agree about the App Store. You pretty much have the Featured apps or you can search for one if you know about it. The Featured apps always seem to be the same. Apple definitely needs to surface more of the new and interesting apps by some pretty innovative developers.

I tried this for the first time the other day. Fantastic app. The immersive environments add to the experience, but even the pieces that are displayed without them are worthwhile. I'd pay for virtual tours of various museums that I probably will never be able to visit in person.
