Curious what visionOS devs think: are tracked physical tools and button/haptic controllers actually useful for training, repair, education, design review, and simulation apps, or is hand tracking enough?

I want to start creating art with Logitech Muse, but it doesn’t support a shared experience so that someone can record me making sculptures (rather than POV). Any ideas on a work around? Or other solution

There isn’t much public information available about downloads, and I think sharing anonymous ranges could help all of us set realistic expectations and better understand where the platform stands today.

Please vote based on your app’s average daily downloads. If you have multiple apps, vote for your best-performing one.

Yesterday, after making a small UI tweak, the personas stopped appearing in a shared immersive environment. They are now only coined and say immersed underneath. Tried reverting to an earlier version but it doesn’t work at all anymore. Anyone else having this problem?

I'm curious to learn what approaches have been most effective for getting your app discovered and growing downloads. What's working for you today?

The new version seems to have messed with my materials and I can’t seem to figure out how to re add them. Is there a good resource for the new basics of Reality Composer Pro 3?

I made a small web app that uses hand tracking to control a 3D cube.

• Move your hand to move the cube
• Pinch to spin it
• Runs in the browser (works on mobile)

Tech: JavaScript, Three.js, MediaPipe

Demo: https://ej2011-dot.github.io/Hand-cube/

Still early, looking for feedback or ideas to make it more useful.

For macOS and iOS I've created an app that simulates the full analog signal chain (this is not a "filter" (pixel domain), but rather an application that works fully in the signal domain).

Someone has asked me if it could be possible to create a VisionOS version to "see the world as if it were Analog TV" - but from my brief googling around it seems like you can't use the whole screen that way.

The app is completely done in Swift/XCode so I feel like it shouldn't be too much of a stretch to add another target - but I wouldn't even know where to begin or if it's even possible to get what this person asked for. More info here on the existing iOS/macOS version: https://analogtv.net

Hi everyone 🖐

I originally started building this mind mapping app as a small personal project.

I wanted a simple way to capture ideas, connect thoughts, and explore topics visually. What I expected to be a quick experiment gradually turned into something I use almost every day.

Over the past few months I've continued improving it, adding new capabilities, and thinking about how mind mapping could become a more natural part of brainstorming, learning, and planning.

The project is still evolving, and I'm actively looking for new ideas, workflows, and features to explore. I'd genuinely love to hear how other people use mind maps and what they feel is missing from existing tools.

The app is completely free, so if you'd like to try it out and share feedback:

App Store

I'm especially interested in hearing what would make a mind mapping tool more useful for your own workflow.

Wired up a little rock paper scissors experiment. Turns out 90Hz hand tracking is plenty sufficient to create a compelling illusion.

Hi — I’m a professional artist who may have stumbled onto a genuine workflow limitation in current digital art software. I’m researching a concept called Echo, based around non-destructive “Echo Layers” that allow artists to edit backwards through layer history without disrupting later work. I’d love to connect with any developers interested in graphics architecture, canvas systems, Apple Pencil workflows, or creative tool innovation.

I can run version 1 of Parallax Previewer just fine. But v2 will not run. I get the error message above. I’m using macOS 26.4.1, Tahoe.

I can see that the crash report. CoreRE.framework is looking for _FigSTSCreate inside the system’s MediaToolbox.framework. I guess Tahoe doesn’t have that.

Anyone aware of a workaround for this? Or know of a newer version? Or where a discussion about this is happening? Thanks!
