Engaging Entertainment Experiences
Featuring two ultra-high-resolution displays, Apple Vision Pro can transform any space into a personal movie theatre, with a screen that feels 100 feet wide and advanced Spatial Audio. Users can immerse themselves in movies, TV shows, and stunning three-dimensional content.
Apple Immersive Video offers 180-degree high-resolution recordings with Spatial Audio. At the same time, the device supports over 100 Apple Arcade games on a screen as large as desired, complete with immersive audio and widespread game controller compatibility.
Immersive Environments
With Environments, Apple Vision Pro expands beyond the physical room’s dimensions, offering dynamic and beautiful landscapes that aid focus or reduce clutter in busy spaces. Users can effortlessly control their level of presence or immersion in an environment using the Digital Crown, tailoring their experience to their preference.
Memories Come Alive
Featuring Apple’s first three-dimensional camera, Apple Vision Pro allows users to capture, relive, and immerse themselves in their favorite memories, enhanced with Spatial Audio. Every spatial photo and video transports users to significant moments, replicating the sensation of being present at a celebration or a family gathering.

A Revolutionary Operating System and User Interface
Powered by decades of engineering innovation in macOS, iOS, and iPadOS, visionOS is a revolutionary operating system specifically crafted to support the low-latency requirements of spatial computing. This groundbreaking OS opens up new dimensions of powerful spatial experiences, utilizing the space around the user to unlock many opportunities at work and home.
visionOS boasts a cutting-edge three-dimensional interface that seamlessly blends digital content with the user’s physical world. By dynamically responding to natural light and casting shadows, the interface gives users a sense of scale and distance, making digital elements feel tangibly present.
With an entirely new input system controlled by a user’s eyes, hands, and voice, Apple Vision Pro offers an intuitive and immersive navigation and interaction experience. Users can effortlessly browse through apps simply by looking at them, tapping their fingers to select, flicking their wrist to scroll, or using their voice to dictate commands.
Industry-Leading Privacy and Security: Keeping You in Control
At Apple, privacy and security are top priorities, and Apple Vision Pro is built on a robust foundation that puts users in control of their data. Here are the key features that ensure your privacy:
Optic ID: Secure Authentication at Your Fingertips
Optic ID is a state-of-the-art secure authentication system that analyzes a user’s iris under invisible LED light exposures. This information is then compared to the enrolled Optic ID data, protected by the Secure Enclave, providing instant and secure access to Apple Vision Pro.
Rest assured, your Optic ID data is fully encrypted, inaccessible to apps, and never leave your device. It is not stored on Apple servers, ensuring your privacy is safeguarded.
Private Eye Tracking and Enhanced Data Security
When navigating Apple Vision Pro, your gaze remains private. Eye tracking information is not shared with Apple, third-party apps, or websites. Additionally, data from the camera and other sensors is processed at the system level, eliminating individual apps needing to access your surroundings to enable spatial experiences.
Furthermore, EyeSight includes a visual indicator that makes it clear to others when capturing a spatial photo or video, ensuring transparency and consent in every interaction.
With Apple Vision Pro, you can confidently embrace the future of computing, knowing that your privacy and data security are prioritized at every step.
