At WWDC 2025, Apple has announced its next generation of software, including Visionos 26 – with Apple passing to version 26 for all its software to unify its numbering system.
For Apple Vision Pro users, this new software will bring a multitude of excellent upgrades to your mixed reality experience, including many new space tools to make photos, applications and web pages more immersive than ever.
Apple also adds a much necessary game feature.
To help you accelerate, here are the 6 most important updates of Apple Vision Pro that you need to know about Visionos 26.
1. Support of the new capture device
With Visionos 26, the Apple Vision Pro can now support videos and photos and photos at 180 degrees, 360 degrees and large on the ground and institutes Insta360, Gopro and Canon. In other words, it is now a much better companion for the best 360 cameras.
This will allow you to better immerse yourself in the action CAM content that you captured on vacation so that you can relive the adventure you have made when you are back home.
2. PlayStation Controller Support
After months of leakage teasing, Apple has finally announced that you can use PlayStation VR 2 Sense Controllers with The Vision Pro – Apple explaining that they will allow developers to “offer even more engaging game experiences”.
It may mean that we will finally see more VR games finally get visionos ports.
Interestingly, Sony does not sell its PSVR 2 controllers separately from the helmet – at least not at the time of the editorial staff. This can change after this revelation, but for the moment, you will have to spend $ 399.99 / £ 399.99 $ 649.00 on the complete configuration of the PSVR 2 to ensure that the controllers take advantage of this update.
3. Immersive space scenes
Thanks to a new generative AI algorithm, Visionos 26 should make space photos even more realistic – according to Apple. The AI will create new perspectives from your photos so that you can rely on the immersive shots you have captured with your iPhone 16.
It also improves the API for developers so that they can improve the spatial scenes of their applications – such as improvements in the immersive application of Zillow which will allow users to better explore houses and apartments using their vision pro helmet.
4. All Spatial
Beyond improved spatial photos, Apple brings several other vision pro spatial upgrades via Visionos 26.
The customizable widgets are on the way. You can adjust their framework, color and depth, and Apple says that it fits into your space and will reappear each time you put your helmet.
So far, he has confirmed that clock, time, music and photos applications will support widgets on Visionos. Thus, you can decorate your space with a beautiful space panorama, or hang a distinctive digital clock to keep track of the time you spent immersing.
Beyond widgets, Apple claims that Visionos 26 will introduce new options for Safari. Developers can now integrate 3D objects and space scenes directly into web pages, and Apple says that you can cut the distractions when you use Safari to help you focus.
5. Shared space spaces
If you and other Apple Vision Pro users are in the same space, you can now share the same space content and see it as if it were a real object in the room with you all.
This means that you can all sit on the sofa and enjoy the same 3D blockbuster, or collaborate with your colleagues on a project. You can also add participants remotely via FaceTime.
6. Improved personas
Okay, enough spatial updates.
With Visionos 26, Apple is also ready to make the characters and feel more natural, and the difference is striking.
Personalities seem much less ghostly and have better hair, more well -defined features, and generally resemble you more than a little frightening.
Smaller updates
Some smaller updates are also on their way, and I recapitulated the most interesting here as seventh entry on this list.
Apple Intelligence will now support French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean and Spanish, as well as non-American English in Australia, Canada, India, Singapore and the United Kingdom.
“Look at scrolling” will allow you to just use your eyes to navigate apps, and you can better organize them with new folder tools.
In addition, iPhones compatible with ID with iOS 26 will be able to unlock even if you wear a professional vision.
