TikTok has just released a new app for Apple‘s Vision Pro headset, bringing its popular video platform into the world of augmented reality. Now, users can enjoy TikTok in a way that feels familiar but also makes the most of the Vision Pro’s capabilities.
The layout is very similar to the mobile layout, but with additional windows!
The layout of the app will remind you a lot of using TikTok on a phone, with videos playing vertically and buttons for liking, commenting, and sharing right there. But, thanks to the extra space on the Vision Pro, TikTok has made it easier to see comments and creator info without them getting in the way of the video.
A while back, TikTok shared some news about creating this app specifically for the Vision Pro. It’s designed to let people watch videos either with a view of the real world around them or in a totally virtual space, like on the moon. Plus, it’s made to work well with other apps on the headset.
While TikTok is diving into augmented reality, other big names in streaming are being more cautious. Disney is all in, offering movies in 3D for Vision Pro users, and other services like Amazon Prime Video are on board too. Netflix and YouTube, however, aren’t rushing to join in. They’re sticking to the basics, suggesting users watch through the browser, though YouTube might be thinking about making an app in the future.
