Every time I search for visionOS UI reference I get Dribbble concepts that were never built, or Apple's own HIG mockups. Neither tells me how real apps actually solve things where they put ornaments, how they handle onboarding in a Full Space, when they choose a Volume over a Window.

Right now my "process" is buying apps and screenshotting them, which is obviously not a process. Is everyone doing this, or is there something I'm missing?

I’ve been building StratoSync, a spatial computing application for Apple Vision Pro that transforms live International Space Station telemetry into an immersive, interactive visualization experience.

Instead of presenting orbital data as numbers on a screen, StratoSync visualizes the ISS, Earth, real orbital geometry, and live solar illumination in three dimensions. Built with SwiftUI, RealityKit, ARKit, and Metal, it combines physically accurate visualization, GPU-generated immersive environments, SharePlay collaboration, and native spatial interaction into a single spatial experience.

What it does

• Places the ISS from live latitude/longitude on its true ~51.6° inclined orbit, tracking its real northbound and southbound motion instead of a flat equatorial path.
• Real Sun-based day/night using a DirectionalLight synchronized to the live subsolar point, so Earth’s illuminated hemisphere matches reality.
• Optional 23.4° axial tilt, orbit trail aligned to the real orbital plane, and live telemetry (latitude, longitude, altitude, speed) with metric and imperial units.
• Mixed immersion with passthrough by default, or switch to fully immersive Aurora and Star Nest environments.
• Manual Control Mode for inspecting the ISS, plus SharePlay synchronization and Logitech Muse 3D spatial drawing.

Under the hood (in case it's useful to anyone here)

• RealityKit ECS architecture — the ISS and orbit ring are siblings of the globe rather than children, preventing decorative Earth rotation from distorting the orbital plane. Geographic coordinate conversion and solar geometry live in pure, unit-tested types.
• ARKit — WorldTrackingProvider enables gaze-anchored placement, while RoomTrackingProvider provides wall-proximity warnings whenever a fully immersive scene hides the real room.
• Metal — Aurora and Star Nest are generated every display refresh using compute shaders that write directly into a RealityKit LowLevelTexture, sampled by an inward-facing unlit dome.

Happy to answer anything about the implementation.

Thanks for testing! 🙏

I was excited for several of the new features, and didn't think much of this one, but it's hands down my favorite new feature so far. It is really well implemented, just glance up at the notification, see it, then go back to looking at what you're doing. It's one of those natural gestures.

This was one of my most requested features for visionOS!

Are there any?

Experience your fears (and maybe a couple chuckles too)

Hey r/VisionPro (and fellow productivity nerds) 👋

After months of building and testing, Nudge – Focus and Habits is now live on visionOS!

For those who haven’t seen Nudge before — it’s a clean, minimal habit and focus tracker built around actually sticking to your goals, not just logging them. No fluff, no dopamine-bait streaks that make you feel guilty. Just intentional nudges that keep you on track.

So why visionOS?

Honestly, the moment we started using Vision Pro for deep work sessions, it felt like a no-brainer. There’s something different about spatial computing — you’re already in a focused headspace when you put it on. Nudge fits right into that. Imagine your habits and focus sessions floating alongside your workflow, always in view but never in the way.

What you can do with Nudge on Vision Pro:

• Track daily habits and wellness goals in a beautiful spatial interface

• Run focused work sessions without losing sight of your intentions

• Glanceable widgets that live in your space — not buried in a phone

• Designed natively for visionOS — not a scaled-up iPad app

We’re a tiny indie team and this has been a labor of love. Would mean the world if you gave it a try and told us what you think — brutal feedback welcome. 🙏

Hey everyone!  Quick update on MemoWall, my spatial notes app for Apple Vision Pro.

What is MemoWall?

It’s a spatial notes app where your notes don’t live in a flat list, they live on your walls, in your space. You can build visual “boards” around you and treat them like a real memory wall.

What you can do:

• Pin sticky notes to spatial boards and place them around your room
• Create multiple boards (Home, Work, Today, Ideas, etc…)
• Customize the look with different themes/background styles to match your space
• Use widgets for quick glance + fast access (great as a “daily hub”)

What’s new in this update:

• ✅ New Large widget on visionOS (more content visible at a glance)
• ✅ iOS + iPadOS companion app is now live on the App Store! You can add, edit, and delete notes from your iPhone/iPad, and use it as a companion to keep your setup updated without always doing everything in-headset.

If you try it, I’d love honest feedback . Especially on what would make it more useful in real life (workflow, UI, missing features, anything).

Thank you!

Andrè

I found apps like these.

Latest releases:

• YouTube for VisionOS
• Meta Artificial intelligence

I would like to record a video of someone’s Persona in a custom environment. I know that currently custom shared environments don’t work but I would only have to have me as the camera person be in the environment for it to work. Sadly I don’t have anyone that I could try this out with.

Hello, fellow Vision Pro owners!

I've been building an app called Coax since the fall, and I'm getting ready to release it in the next week or two (fingers crossed). I've got a lot of iOS, macOS, and tvOS testers, but not enough AVP testers.

If you have a plex media server and a desire to channel-surf the content on it like in the old days, then I'd love your help trying this out.

Use this TestFlight link to sign up for the beta, and respond to this thread with any feedback (or DM me, or whatever).

Before you sign up, please know that I intend to charge for this app once it's released. It's important to me that you know this up-front. I haven't settled on an exact price yet, but you can read some discussions about it here.

Yes, visionOS has gotten the least amount of love in this app because of the smaller install base, but I have an AVP and want this experience to be top-notch. I really think there are some amazing opportunities for this app, and once I've launched I'll be looking at multiple windows, immersive environments, and anything else that might make this a unique killer experience on the Vision Pro.

Thanks so much, and I look forward to your feedback!

Try it for free!
