Totally agree! While I could look at museum pieces on an iPad, iPhone or a printed book, there is a next level experience you get with VP. I’d definitely pay for a subscription especially if it benefits the museums.
Got a tip for us?

Something immersive closer to an actual museum experience would be great - for example, being able to view a piece of art or a displayed object from different perspectives within a museum hall environment. IIRC, years ago, Apple created a "virtual museum" on CD-ROM that let you walk through it by clicking to view exhibits, many of which included video and sound.
Have you checked out ArtAuthority Museum? It has a lot of potential! It’s all paintings. The navigation is a little awkward at times. To me it’s an impressive early attempt. The subscription greatly expands what is in each artist room. It’s worth checking out!
Gymaholic is another great app on VisionPro! It has a ton of exercises and some stretches. The AR guy shows you proper form and what muscles get worked. It’s worth checking out even if you rarely leave the couch.
ForeFlight just updated Voyager. It shows an even larger radius of terrain around the airport, and you can zoom in and out and rotate the view with gestures. I can now see details, including my house, that were previously beyond the field of view for two regional airports, one of which is 7 miles away as the crow plane flies. Of course, this also means more airspace and aircraft to watch. Pretty cool and amazing for a free app!
Check every Thursday when they have updated the new apps section.
but this all requires external hardware or some other app from briefly looking at it does it not ? I mean if I go to the App Store are they natively available on the headset themselves, thats kind of what i'm looking for, one click install on AVP away we go. After clicking around on the MS Flight Sim site, nothing mentions AVP, but theres some SteamVR AVLR thing, etc that requires you to run it on external hardware ?... all too clunky. I mean this thing has M2 chips and 200GB and I still need to futz around. no thanks.
Hello here, check out our newly launched app - OverSoul. It's spatial photo converting and sharing social media app.
We take:
Why not try it out on the App Store?
We take:
- Native Apple format spatial photo
- Side by side(LR and RL) stereo photo
- Any monocular(flat) image. We'll convert it using our best in class AI deployed in the backend.

For anyone who is interested, the Apple Developer app can be downloaded by anyone without the need for an account. With it you can see the Environment made just for that app. I think it’s pretty sharp. I wish they would made it a standard Environment rather than being specific to that one app.
Don't follow. Flight simulator isn't natively available on any Apple ARM platform.
1. You install/run it from steam
2. No extra hardware required to run the app. Controller evidently optional.
Since it is $60 I'm not going to test it, but video seems to say that it works well.
XPlane runs natively on the VP.
Didn't test with a controller.
Yes, at least as far as I got into the demo where I could look around the cockpit. Did get stuck with "tilt the top of your device ..."
Any retro gamers in the house may be happy to see the Vision Pro now has a native Virtual Boy Emulator, which is pretty awesome!
Wario Land for Virtual Boy is well worth the install of this app.

This Vision Pro Virtual Boy emulator isn’t fancy, but it gets the job done

God, I would feel like crap right now if I was an app developer who is all in on building apps for the Vision Pro
Oh, so what we got here? An Apple basher?
I wonder who sent him. Most of his comments regarding Apple and their products are very similar.
Just one more for the pile... not worth our attention.
If I would have developer skills, I would feel like James Kirk - boldly program things no man has ever done before. There are developers like that - the Moon Team for instance with their player and portal. (and many others...)
There are a lot of developers who are quite excited about developing for the VP. I've been in conversations with several of them.
There are others who are interested but are holding back until the sales volume reach a sustainable level for their development. Reasonable thing to do as well.

For those in the UK, Channel 4 have just released a native AVP app which is great to see. It has a cool 3-D animation when you first load it!
I used the PolyCam 3D app (on iPhone) to scan and create CAD models of a few rooms in my old house before I left. Does anyone know of any good AVP apps that would let you use one of those CAD files to create a virtual reality version of the space? I have heard of JigSpace but I figured it was more for models and not rooms that you want to (virtually) surround you.
If it’s a 3D CAD drawing, there may be a way you could export it to .usdz.
What’s the file format for your drawings?
I actually have it in a few different mesh formats:
- DAE
- FBX
- GLTF
- OBJ
- STL
- USDZ
Yes there are some apps that will allow you to do so.
Or if you like to code, try Xcode.
