Apple's Vision Pro Set to Launch with Limited App Availability
Despite a lack of native apps, translated iPhone and iPad apps may provide a wide selection, while popular apps like YouTube, Netflix, and Spotify are notably absent.
- Apple's Vision Pro headset, set to launch on February 2, is expected to have a limited number of compatible apps at launch.
- Despite the limited number of native apps, Apple is automatically translating iPhone and iPad apps onto the Vision Pro, which should provide a large number of apps from the start.
- Popular apps such as YouTube, Netflix, and Spotify will not be available on the Vision Pro, either as native or translated apps.
- Apple is reportedly restricting access to the Vision Pro's eye-tracking and motion-sensing features for developers, limiting the potential for innovative app development.
- Despite the high price and limited app availability, the Vision Pro has been praised for its 3D movie capabilities and immersive experiences.
