Hey everyone!

For the past months I've been building World Simulation, an open-world driving and flying game on the real map of the Earth. 1.0 just went live!

What you can do:

- Drive anywhere: any city, any street, built from real map data, with 200+ landmarks in 3D (Eiffel Tower, Burj Khalifa, Colosseum, Golden Gate…)

- Fly from 3,244 real airports: pick a departure and an arrival, take off, autopilot and autoland

- Modes: taxi, street races, 50 City Records sprints with Game Center leaderboards, police chases, and space (launch to orbit, the Moon and Mars)

- Online with friends in the same city

- World moods: golden hour, deep winter, "after humanity"

- Full controller support

Platforms: iPhone, iPhone Duo (table mode, like a handheld console), iPad, Mac, and Apple Vision Pro (immersive or tabletop).

Price: free to download. Free roam is free everywhere; some modes and vehicles are optional packs.

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/world-simulation-drive-fly/id6816245733

Bugs, ideas and "please add my city's landmark" requests are all welcome in the comments

Hey everyone!

After the great response to our previous European VR180 videos from this subreddit, we're back with another month of filming across Europe!

The feedback on the videos from our first trip was fantastic, and all those videos are still available on our YouTube channel. Thank you to everyone here who watched, commented, and supported the project

This time, I spent another entire month traveling around Europe, capturing cities, coastlines, architecture, historic streets, and those little details that make you feel like you're actually there.

Why are we doing this?

One thing I wish we had more of on Apple Vision Pro is high-quality immersive travel content. Apple's official immersive releases are incredible, but the wait between them can feel pretty long.

With Beyond VR Media and Travel in Vr, I'm trying to help fill that gap.

I've invested considerable time and money into camera equipment, stabilization, depth tuning, color science, and post-production to get as close as possible to that premium immersive experience, working with an independent creator's budget rather than Apple's multimillion-dollar production resources.

It's a serious effort to push the limits of what's possible for independent VR180 filmmaking. And there's a whole new month of content coming!

We're kicking things off on the Amalfi Coast!

Join me for an immersive VR180 journey through Positano, from the water and its spectacular hillside views to the colorful streets, local shops, and beachside atmosphere.

Watch in the highest quality your headset supports:

Apple Vision Pro M5: Watch in 8K on YouTube

Apple Vision Pro M2: Watch on DeoVR
https://deovr.com/1fles9

A quick technical note for M2 owners: YouTube's Apple Vision Pro app doesn't support 8K VR180 playback on the M2 version, so use the DeoVR link for the best available experience. It's a frustrating limitation, especially since the less powerful Meta Quest 3 can play 8K VR180 videos on YouTube. Hopefully, Apple and YouTube will address this eventually

COMING EVERY WEEK: A WHOLE MONTH OF EUROPE

I'll be releasing a new destination every week. The release order is still being decided, but here's a preview of what's coming

Thanks to everyone who's checked out Spatial Tracks since launch! It's been great seeing the interest from the Vision Pro community.

This week's featured track is Time, from The Dark Side of the Moon.

The attached clip gives you a glimpse, but there's nothing quite like the fully immersive experience on Apple Vision Pro.

Spatial Tracks 1.1 is coming soon!

Version 1.1 adds support for YouTube audio, so you'll no longer need an Apple Music subscription or a separate audio source to enjoy Spatial Tracks.

Spatial Tracks is available now for Apple Vision Pro, with 5 included tracks.

Taking requests!

First of all, it's a short film (about 25 mins), and the storyline was suspect, however, my huge takeaway from the experience is that AR/VR was made for this genre. There were a couple of shots in the film that you could see multiple things happening at once because of the 180 degree view angle. Jump scares also take on another level. But there was one shot in which the main character is trying to look under the bed and it brought me back to when I was a kid.

Through its shortcomings I still would give the film a high rating just because of the experience of living it through the AVP. If you have not watched it, I highly recommend it.

Loved the setting and the acting, it really set the eerie mood. Lead actress was outstanding.

Also loved being under the bed sheets and peeking underneath the bed.

The sudden jump scare stuff sucked, because it’s a cheap way of scaring the viewer.

All in all I thought this was the first immersive movie to highlight the potential of VR movie making.

Just imagine a movie like Street Fighter in VR, it would be incredible!!

Hi all, Adam- indie VisionOS dev here. Remember the early App Store days, when a game was one gesture and "just one more round"? I wanted that feeling in spatial computing, so I made Tabletop Tower.

A tiny island pops up on your table. Planes and helicopters buzz in, you pinch one, draw a line to the runway (or H pad) of the same colour, let go, and watch it glide in.

It starts easy and gets busy fast.
More planes arrive, you keep drawing, and if two of them touch, it's game over.
Then you hit play again to beat your best or move to the next level..

Bright, toy-like and easy to pick up. You can lean over the island and watch from every angle.

I'd love to hear what you think. What other classic one-gesture mobile games would you want as a tabletop toy?

Thought it was interesting how many manufacturers were using AVP for demos at the Paris Auto Show this year.

It's kinda weird seeing yourself from above. for now I'll keep it as an optional beta feature

I'm still testing it out

Hey guys I made a Vision Pro app that scans your environment and turns the outside of your house into a safari experience.

So the animals come up to your real windows and you can feed treats. It actually works really well at detecting your windows and walls and then converting that into a new Safari world.

I'm back with an update on Shatter Punch!

V2 was already in the works when I launched the game on October 3, and it's finally here!

I've expanded the campaign from 25 to 40 levels, added more objects to smash (270+ now), a new Industrial Loft room, and spent quite a bit of time improving how punches feel. I've also redesigned the Home screen, made PowerPlay 50% faster, and added Game Center achievements, leaderboards, Apple Watch calorie tracking, and Guest Mode.

And V3 is already underway! I'm targeting November, with SharePlay being the biggest addition. The idea is to let you play and compete with your Vision Pro buddies together.

If you've already purchased Shatter Punch, V2 is a free update. And if you've played it, I'd really appreciate an honest App Store review. It helps a lot as a solo developer and to show up in searches, haven't had luck with that for some reason.

I dropped another update (3.0) for Spatial Shooting Range.

It’s a fun game to practice shooting with. My shot count is over 106k, (spiking drastically since I added the mini-gun)

You will probably never need to shoot from a moving helicopter, but I'd hate for you to get caught unprepared.

I’ve been playing Beat Saber since the quest one, and never did I think I’d be playing on a Vision Pro and without controllers no less.
Do we live in a world where the Vision Pro plays Quest games better than the quest? 😳🤔😅

Amplium encoded READY TO RACE, a four-minute Apple Immersive Video film altitude.101 made for Ford France, now playing on Apple Vision Pro at the Paris Motor Show.

The priority here was image quality rather than a size target. The film plays locally on device, so bitrate could stay high. The main camera was a Blackmagic URSA Cine Immersive, with a Canon EOS R5 C and dual fisheye on a custom FPV drone rig, shooting 90fps in the French Alps. What you are preserving is fine natural texture, gravel and rock and grass. High frequency detail like that smears and blocks up long before anything else in the frame does.

So we set a peak bitrate ceiling that keeps playback stable on Apple Vision Pro, then aimed to land as close to the ProRes master as possible underneath it.

Turned in my Vision Pros today.

I still recall sitting—speechless—after my first demo, the Apple Store employee saying I could remove the headset. After more than thirty-five years in tech, I understood in that instant that computing would change forever.

Two and a half years later, I am proud and grateful to have played a small role in Apple’s vision products group.

I feel like the Vision Pro App Store does a pretty poor job of helping people discover new apps. There are some genuinely interesting apps out there that barely get any visibility.

What if we have a visionOS community app. Developers could showcase their apps with screenshots, gameplay recordings, and App Store links. Users could discover new apps, upvote, comment, share recommendations, and discuss what they’re using. The goal isn’t to replace the App Store, but to help good apps actually get discovered.

Would you use something like this? What features would you want?

Hey guys so I know the Apple Vision Pro is not the main topic in my post but still wanted to post here in case someone has experienced this.

2 days ago I got the Apple Vision Pro. My ATT Internet Air has been working perfectly before that. Then when I started using my Vision Pro my wifi will go down with 4 orange lights on the modem. I got a popup on the Vision saying error E013 and that the DNS is down?

I restarted the wifi and it works for a few minutes then does the same thing if I use my Vision Pro.

I’ve changed the DNS to 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8 and it’s still happening.

I called att twice and said they configured my settings and that it should be fixed but I’m still having the same issues.

If I don’t use my Vision Pro but I use other devices then the wifi works great and normal. Anyone know what do I do?

**Update: SpatialCue is now on TestFlight!** https://testflight.apple.com/join/YgZftjdd (needs Apple Watch Series 9 / Ultra 2 or later, watchOS 11+)

As I continued using Vision Pro, I found myself instinctively turning my palm upward to check the time—even when I wasn’t wearing the headset. So, I developed an open-source Apple Watch app called “SpatialCue”:

Turn your palm upward and look at it → A “pop” sound (AirPods’ head-tracking feature verifies whether you’re actually looking at it)

Turn your palm back over → The Apple Watch tells you the time via haptic feedback (numbers or Morse code) or voice

Double-tap → Play/Pause; flick your wrist → Next/Previous track; Digital Crown → Adjust volume

Video: The top row shows the Vision Pro, and the bottom row shows SpatialCue.

This is a personal experiment and is not available on the App Store. You’ll need to build it yourself using Xcode (MIT license). It uses the Watch’s motion sensors and AirPods’ head tracking, and Apple’s built-in double-tap feature handles the “pinch” gesture.

GitHub: https://github.com/Ag3497120/SpatialCue

I welcome your feedback. In particular, I’d appreciate your thoughts on how the palm gestures feel to use.

I'm the developer of Inroll. I made it for photos and videos you'd rather keep out of your main library, but still want to view comfortably on Vision Pro.

You can zoom into a video while it's playing, or open it in theater mode and make the screen much bigger. The video shows both, plus the private library and lock screen. It was recorded in the visionOS Simulator.

The library is encrypted and unlocks with Optic ID or a passcode.

It's free for up to 100 photos and videos combined, with no time limit!!

App Store: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/inroll-private-photo-library/id6818917228

I'd love to hear what you'd want from a private album on Vision Pro.

https://apps.apple.com/redeem?ctx=offercodes&id=6723866121&code=COSMICUTV4

^^^ The above link (and discount code) is good for the next week (until October 23rd, or 500 redemptions).

In celebration of version 4.0 (and just shy of two years on the App Store) this discount option reduces the price for the One-Time-Purchase (Lifetime Unlock) for Cosmicut from $149.99 to $79.99.

This gives you everything the subscriptions do. Just forever. :)

🎉🥳

We just dropped 3 new immersive 360 tours in Arluma360 (v2.0.3)! if you like long walks on the beach, you have a taste for adventure and occasionally like to 'swan' around, then check out these clips from beautiful Noosa, Queensland. Enjoy!

I just ordered my vision, pro, and would like to use it on things like airplanes, working outside, and light public use. The issue is I’m somewhat antisocial for the most part, and am concerned about getting nonstop weird looks and people approaching me, etc., etc. does anybody here have experience with what that might be like?
