“I’d been staring at this thing in the simulator for weeks and getting a general sense of how it works, but that was in a box,” Smith says. Meanwhile, Widgetsmith developer David Smith described the wow moment that happens when you experience apps with spatial computing: “Experiencing spatial computing not only validated the designs we’d been thinking about - it helped us start thinking not just about left to right or up and down, but beyond borders at all.” Ĭan people look at a whole week spatially? Can people compare their current day to the following week? If a day is less busy, can people make that day wider? And then, what if like you have the whole week wrap around you in 360 degrees?” Sure, you can scroll, or have multiple monitors, but generally speaking, you’re limited to the edges,” he says. “It was like seeing Fantastical for the first time,” he says. Michael Simmons, the mind behind the great calendar app Fantastical, talked about the concept of designing software without borders: The product isn’t finished so the pre-release hardware is for testing software and not evaluation.įortunately, Apple has shared some insight provided by developers who have taken advantage of those in-personal labs being held in various cities around the globe. Developers have also been able to request pre-release hardware in the form of a super secret developer kit.Īpple doesn’t allow developers who are loaned developer kits to speak freely about the development experience with actual hardware.

Since announcing Vision Pro in June, Apple has been holding in-person labs to help developers prepare their apps for the $3500 mixed reality computer. Today Apple is sharing some of the insight from our favorite developers who have taken advantage of hands-on time with the headset. Apple Vision Pro is still months away from arriving in the US, and developers are already hard at work on crafting spatial computing experiences with their apps.
