Apple has launched a significant update for its Vision Pro headset, integrating Apple Intelligence with the release of visionOS 2.4. This update, available as a developer beta since February 18, 2025, enhances the functionality of the device, although it currently supports only US English.
Key Features of the Update
The visionOS 2.4 update introduces several new features:
- Writing tools across native apps
- Genmojis
- Image Playground
- Access to ChatGPT
These features will work seamlessly with Vision Pro’s existing voice and gesture controls. However, the update does not include any enhancements to Siri, which may disappoint some users.
New iOS App for Vision Pro
Accompanying the headset update is a new Vision Pro app for iOS, set to launch with iOS 18.4. This app serves as a hub for managing Vision Pro content and experiences. Users can:
- Add movies to watchlists
- Trigger app downloads
- Check device details like serial number and software version
This app aims to enhance connectivity between iPhones and Vision Pro devices, similar to the functionality of the Apple Watch app.
Guest Mode and Spatial Gallery
The update also improves Guest Mode, allowing easier sharing of the headset. When a guest wears the Vision Pro, the owner receives a notification on their iPhone or iPad to enable sharing and select apps for the guest to access.
Additionally, users will find a new Spatial Gallery app within Vision Pro, offering curated spatial content across various genres, including sports and travel.
While the Vision Pro remains a premium device with a price tag of $3,499.99, these updates provide compelling reasons for users to invest in the headset. For more details, visit the original article here.
