Tomorrow, Apple will launch the Vision Pro in the United States. Even with pre-orders placed some time ago and 200,000 units already sold, the main concern is whether people will genuinely enjoy it. Luckily, Apple aims to live up to the high expectations for its $3,499 headset, with over 600 apps designed for the Vision Pro at its launch. Here are the details…
The Vision Pro Has Over 600 Apps Designed For It at Launch
Apple’s Vision Pro has impressed with its technical specs and capabilities. However, virtual and augmented reality often end up feeling like pricey toys rather than essential tools. After using a headset for a while, many people likely abandoned it, letting it collect dust. That’s because despite some success of Meta’s Quest series, the core problem remains. Headsets are still uncomfortable for prolonged use and lack adequate app support
During the launch, Apple addressed the initial concern of comfort and now demonstrated their solution for the second issue by confirming the headset’s compatibility with new apps. The company revealed that there are already more than 600 apps and games specifically designed for the Vision Pro, in addition to over a million compatible iOS and iPadOS apps. However, the quality of these apps remains uncertain at this point.
It’s noteworthy that even Microsoft faced challenges in expanding their application library for Windows Phone, making Apple’s achievement significant. The Vision Pro offers a diverse range of apps in the visionOS App Store, spanning sports, entertainment, productivity, gaming, and exploration. Highlights include PGA TOUR Vision, Vision Pro NBA, Max for unique shows, and popular productivity tools. The gaming selection features 250+ titles, including Apple Arcade exclusives. Users can explore the globe, check 3D weather, delve into the solar system, learn anatomy, DJ, attend virtual concerts, and shop with various apps. Unique experiences like Loóna, Void-X, and Saktrix Pro enhance the mixed reality environment. The app ecosystem is expected to grow as more users discover its capabilities.
