Apple Vision Pro

Apple released visionOS 26.4 this week, bringing new emoji and an upgraded video podcast experience to Apple Vision Pro. The new software update also boosts Spatial Audio performance with an impressive engineering trick.

iRacing on Apple Vision Pro brings a “level of immersion and fidelity never before seen in sim racing,” says iRacing president Tony Gardner. The new app landed on the App Store this week after first being announced in March.

Last week, we learned that visionOS 26.4 enables Nvidia’s CloudXR 6.0 technology on Apple Vision Pro. Now Nvidia is officially announcing its work with Apple, which enables a new “Immersive for Autodesk VRED” app and more.

When Apple releases visionOS 26.4, Apple Vision Pro will be able to display the “world’s most advanced flight simulator” for the first time. That’s because the upcoming software update introduces support for a key technology that will enable this new immersive flying experience.

Apple has released the third episode of Elevated, its original Immersive Video series for Apple Vision Pro that started in 2024. The latest entry offers viewers an otherwise impossible view of Switzerland from above.

Apple has released visionOS 26.3.1 for Apple Vision Pro users today. The update fixes a flickering problem in the Apple TV app, according to the release notes.

Apple this week shared a trailer for a new Immersive Video release coming to Apple Vision Pro later this month: Top Dogs. The company describes it as a behind-the-scenes look at the “biggest dog show on Earth.”

When I tried Apple Vision Pro for the first time at WWDC 2023, one part of the demo immediately stood out: sports in Apple Immersive Video. During a sizzle reel, I watched immersive clips from NBA and MLB games. As a sports fan, I knew right away that Vision Pro had the potential to change the game.

It took a while for that promise to fully materialize, but this weekend I finally watched a full NBA game in Immersive Video: the Los Angeles Lakers vs. the Milwaukee Bucks.

Back in October, Apple announced that select Lakers NBA games would stream in Apple Immersive video on Apple Vision Pro in 2026. Today, Apple and Spectrum have published the full schedule of Apple Immersive games.

Apple Vision Pro continues to be the best ticket to viewing incredible immersive video experiences. Coinciding with Veterans Day, Apple has released its latest Apple Immersive video format piece, a 14-minute documentary about F-18 fighter pilots.

Apple Vision Pro just got a powerful, immersive helicopter training and flight experience app. Rogue Labs has launched Flight Sight, which combines Apple Immersive Video, 3D helicopter models, spatial maps, and more for Apple Vision Pro users.

It’s the latest in a growing library of advanced, enterprise-focused apps for Apple Vision Pro.

Apple Vision Pro owners will soon get to experience the exhilarating world of motorcycle racing. CANAL+ announced an upcoming Apple Immersive Video film that will bring viewers directly into the world of MotoGP racing. The project marks the first third-party studio production in Apple’s Immersive Video format, filmed entirely with Blackmagic’s URSA Cine Immersive camera system designed specifically for Vision Pro content.

Theater for visionOS premiered a year ago with a clever software launch campaign: exclusively streaming John Gruber’s The Talk Show post-WWDC event live with 3D video.

The Apple Vision Pro app has continued to mature since its debut, adding extensive Plex support and a full-blown immersive planetarium that now hosts the 2025 SXSW award-winning “Resolution” music experience.

Next up, Theater is returning as the exclusive home to The Talk Show Live event stream.
