Hello! I’m excited to see that Look to Scroll has been included in visionOS 26 Beta. I’m aiming to achieve a feature where the user’s gaze at a specific edge automatically scrolls to that position. However, I’ve experimented with ScrollView and haven’t been able to trigger this functionality. Could you advise if additional API modifiers are necessary? Thank you!

In RealityView, physical components are only applicable to certain solids. How can I simulate the physical effects of water and cloth? enity.components.set(PhysicalComponent)

Hi there, I was looking to add a particle emitter to my augmented reality app I'm developing using RealityKit. I'm targeting iOS. I noticed in the documentation for the ParticleEmitterComponent that it looks like iOS 18.0+ is supported, but when I try to use the ParticleEmitterComponent in my code in XCode, I get an error that it isn't found. Furthermore, this StackOverflow post seems to indicate that particle systems are not available for iOS. Would it be possible to get clarification on this?

I want an AR character to be able to look at a position while still playing the characters animation. So far, I managed to manually adjust a single bone rotation using skeletalComponent.poses.default = Transform( scale: baseTransform.scale, rotation: lookAtRotation, translation: baseTransform.translation ) which I run at every rendering update, while a full body animation is running. But of course, hardcoding single joints to point into a direction (in my case the head) does not look as nice, as if I were to run some inverse cinematic that includes, hips + neck + head joints. I found some good IKRig code in Composing interactive 3D content with RealityKit and Reality Composer Pro. But when I try to adjust rigs while animations are playing, the animations are usually winning over the IKRig changes to the mesh.

I’m developing an app using RealityKit and RealityView. On newer iPhones, such as the iPhone 15 Pro, Object Occlusion appears to be enabled by default, which causes 3D entities to be hidden behind real-world objects in the scene. However, I need to disable this behavior to ensure proper rendering of my 3D content. This issue does not occur on older devices like the iPhone 13, where the app works as intended. I haven’t been able to find a solution to explicitly disable object occlusion on the newer devices for RealityView. Any guidance or suggestions to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Hi, I created an app using iOS Object Capture API which works only on Lidar enabled phones. It's a limitation of the Api provided by apple itself. I Submitted an app for Review , but It is getting rejected (Twice) saying it doesnt work on non pro models. Even though I explained that capturing Needs Lidar and supported only in PRO models, It still gets rejected after testing in Non Pro models. is there a way out?

Hi, I have a question. In visionOS, when a user looks at a button and performs a pinch gesture with their index finger and thumb, the button responds. By default, this works with both the left and right hands. However, I want to disable the pinch gesture when performed with the left hand while keeping it functional with the right hand. I understand that the system settings allow users to configure input for both hands, the left hand only, or the right hand only. However, I would like to control this behavior within the app itself. Is this possible? Best regards.

Hi everyone, I’m trying to verify something mentioned in the WWDC session “Explore enhancements to your spatial business app.” At timestamp 3:36, the presenter states: “You can now access your enterprise license files directly within your Apple Developer account.” I’ve checked every section of my Developer account, including: • Membership and Agreements • Certificates, Identifiers & Profiles • App Store Connect • Additional Resources • Account settings …but no UI or section exposes these enterprise license files. Since the Vision Entitlement Services framework actively checks these licenses (for example, mainCameraAccess entitlement approval), I need to confirm the location of the new license file. Could someone from Apple or anyone who has seen this feature clarify: 1. Where exactly do these enterprise license files appear in the Developer account UI, or 2. Whether this feature has not rolled out yet? Any guidance or screenshots from those who have access would be invaluable. Thanks,

Game Controller Input Limitations in visionOS Volumetric Windows Hello Apple Developer Community, I'm developing a game for visionOS and have encountered significant limitations with game controller input when using volumetric windows (WindowGroup with .volumetric style). I'd appreciate clarification on whether this is expected behavior and any guidance on best practices. 🧩 Issue Summary When using a DualSense controller with a volumetric window in visionOS, only a subset of controller inputs are available to the app. The remaining inputs appear to be reserved by the system for UI navigation. ✅ Working Inputs (Volumetric Window) D-Pad (all directions) L3 (left thumbstick button click) R3 (right thumbstick button click) Menu button Options button ❌ Not Working Inputs (Volumetric Window) Left thumbstick analog movement (used for UI scrolling instead) Right thumbstick analog movement (used for UI scrolling instead) Face buttons (Cross, Circle, Square, Triangle / A, B, X, Y) Shoulder buttons (L1, R1) Triggers (L2, R2) Key observation: When moving the left thumbstick in a volumetric window, the window's UI scrolls vertically instead of sending input to my app's GameController handlers. Similarly, face buttons seem to be reserved for system UI interactions. ⚙️ Implementation Details I'm using the standard GameController framework: Connect to controller via GCController.controllers() Access extendedGamepad profile Set up valueChangedHandler and pressedChangedHandler for all inputs Handlers confirmed registered via logging Working inputs (D-Pad, L3, R3) trigger immediately and consistently Non-working inputs (thumbsticks, face buttons) never trigger 🧠 Critical Finding: ImmersiveSpace Works Perfectly When testing the exact same code in an ImmersiveSpace (.mixed immersion style), all controller inputs work perfectly: ✅ Both thumbsticks provide full analog input ✅ All face buttons trigger their handlers ✅ All shoulder buttons and triggers work correctly ✅ 100% success rate with no intermittent issues This suggests the issue isn't with my code, but rather how visionOS handles controller input differently between Volumetric Windows and ImmersiveSpace. 🧪 Test Environment I created a minimal test project (Controller-Playground) to isolate the issue: A simple ControllerTester class that registers all GameController handlers A visual UI showing real-time input state No game logic, RealityKit physics, or other complexity Results In volumetric window: Only D-Pad, L3, R3, Menu, Options work In ImmersiveSpace: All inputs work perfectly This confirms the limitation exists at the visionOS platform level, not in app code. 🧰 Attempted Workarounds I tried the following without success: Setting GCSupportsControllerUserInteraction = false in Info.plist Setting UIRequiresFullScreen = true Changing window styles (.plain, .volumetric) Polling vs. handler-based input approaches Various threading models (MainActor, separate thread) Result: The only way to enable full controller support is to switch to ImmersiveSpace. ❓ Questions for Apple Is this input reservation behavior in volumetric windows intended and documented? Are game controllers expected to have limited functionality in volumetric windows while full functionality is reserved for ImmersiveSpace? Is there a way to request full controller input access in a volumetric window, or is ImmersiveSpace the only option for complete controller support? Where can I find official documentation about controller input differences between window types? Are there any APIs or configuration options to disable system controller shortcuts in volumetric windows? 🎯 Impact This limitation has a significant effect on game design and architecture: Volumetric windows offer a multitasking-friendly, less immersive experience ImmersiveSpace provides full controller support but may be more immersive than some games require Games that only need basic D-Pad and button input can work fine in volumetric windows Games requiring analog sticks or face buttons must currently use ImmersiveSpace It would be very helpful if Apple could clarify or reference existing documentation regarding controller input handling in different visionOS window types. If such documentation doesn't exist yet, it might be valuable to include this information in future developer guides or best-practice documents. 🕹 Current Workaround For now, I'm using: D-Pad for character movement (digital 8-direction) R3 (right stick click) as a substitute for the "X" button This setup allows the game to function within a volumetric window, though full controller support still requires ImmersiveSpace. 📄 Request If this is expected behavior, I may have simply missed the relevant documentation — could you please point me to any existing resources that explain this design? If there isn't one yet, it would be great if future visionOS documentation could: Clearly outline controller input behavior across window types Provide guidance on when to use Volumetric Windows vs. ImmersiveSpace for games Consider adding an API option to request full controller access when appropriate If this is not expected behavior, I'm happy to file a detailed bug report with sample code. 💻 System Information visionOS: Latest Simulator Xcode: Latest version Controller: Sony DualSense Framework: GameController (standard extendedGamepad profile) Test project: Minimal reproducible example available Thank you for any clarification or guidance you can provide. This information would be valuable for many developers working on visionOS games.

I'm starting my journey in developing an immersive app for VisionOS. I've been making steady progress, but I've encountered a specific challenge that I haven't been able to resolve. I created two ModelEntity objects — a sphere and a cube — and added a DragGesture to the cube. When I drag the cube over the sphere, the two collide correctly, and the collision is logged in the console. So far, everything works as expected. However, when I try to anchor the cube to my hand, the collision stops working. It's as if the cube loses its ability to detect collisions once it's anchored. Any guidance or clarification on this behavior would be greatly appreciated. //  ImmersiveView.swift //  estudos_vision // //  Created by Lailan Rogerio Rodrigues Matos on 15/05/25. // import SwiftUI import RealityKit import RealityKitContent struct ImmersiveView: View { @Environment(AppModel.self) var appModel @State private var session: SpatialTrackingSession? @State private var box = ModelEntity() @State private var subs: [EventSubscription] = [] @State private var ballEntity: Entity? var body: some View { RealityView { content in // Load initial content from the RealityKit scene. if let immersiveContentEntity = try? await Entity(named: "Immersive", in: realityKitContentBundle) { content.add(immersiveContentEntity) } // Create and run a spatial tracking session. let session = SpatialTrackingSession() let configuration = SpatialTrackingSession.Configuration(tracking: [.hand]) _ = await session.run(configuration) self.session = session // Create a red box. let boxMesh = MeshResource.generateBox(size: 0.2) let material = SimpleMaterial(color: .red, isMetallic: false) box = ModelEntity(mesh: boxMesh, materials: [material]) box.position.y += 0.15 // Position the box slightly above the origin. // Configure the box for user interaction and physics. box.components.set(InputTargetComponent(allowedInputTypes: .indirect)) // Make it interactive. box.generateCollisionShapes(recursive: false) // Generate collision shapes for physics. box.components.set(PhysicsBodyComponent( // Add physics behavior. massProperties: .default, material: .default, mode: .kinematic // Use kinematic mode so it can be moved by user interaction. )) box.components.set(GroundingShadowComponent(castsShadow: true)) // Add a shadow. //content.add(box) //commented out to add to hand anchor // Create a left hand anchor and add the box as a child. let handAnchor = AnchorEntity(.hand(.left, location: .palm), trackingMode: .continuous) handAnchor.addChild(box) content.add(handAnchor) // Add the hand anchor to the scene. // Create a sphere. let ball = ModelEntity(mesh: .generateSphere(radius: 0.15)) ball.position = [0.0, 1.5, -1.0] // Initial position of the ball. ball.generateCollisionShapes(recursive: false) // Add collision. ball.name = "Sphere" content.add(ball) ballEntity = ball // Subscribe to collision events between the box and other entities. let event = content.subscribe(to: CollisionEvents.Began.self, on: box) { ce in print("Collision between \(ce.entityA.name) and \(ce.entityB.name) occurred") //ce.entityA.removeFromParent() // removes the colliding object //ce.entityB.removeFromParent() } Task { subs.append(event) } } // Add a drag gesture to the box, allowing the user to move it. .gesture( DragGesture() .targetedToEntity(box) // Target the drag gesture to the box. .onChanged({ value in // Update the position of the box based on the drag gesture. box.position = value.convert(value.location3D, from: .local, to: box.parent!) }) ) } } #Preview(immersionStyle: .full) { ImmersiveView() .environment(AppModel()) }

I want to let users place 2D/3D “artworks” on detected walls and have them reappear in exactly the same real‑world spot after quitting and relaunching the app (like widgets do, but for my own entities).Environment: Xcode 26, visionOS 2.0, RealityKit + ARKitSession/WorldTrackingProvider Entities are parented to a holder that’s aligned to a wall via plane/mesh raycasts. What I’ve tried: Create a WorldAnchor at placement, save UUID + full 4×4 transform On next launch, re-create the WorldAnchor (or set the saved transform) and attach the entity Gate restore on relocalization/mesh updates and disable all raycast/search after restore Issue: After relaunch, placement still resolves relative to current device pose, not the same wall position. Questions: Is there a public API in visionOS 2.0 to persist app‑managed world anchors across sessions (room‑fixed), e.g., AnchorStore or equivalent? If not, what’s the recommended pattern to reliably restore wall‑anchored content? Are persistence features mentioned for widgets/windows available to third‑party RealityKit entities?

This might be a very silly question, anyway I tried many ways and didn't find a solution: My Mac mini M4 is basic version which only has 16GB memory, it is very shy for developing Vision Pro application and testing with the simulator (CleanMacX always warning me low memory), I want to debug and test the application directly on Vision Pro (+ my app need both two hands gestures which simulator might not support) in stead of simulator, is there any proper instructions on how I test/debug/run the App on VP device directly instead of on simulator in favor of speed?

I want to implement the functions in this video, how should I set the window

Greetings. I am having this issue with a Unity Polyspatial VisionOS app. We have our main Bounded Volume for our app. We have other Native UI windows that appear when we interact with objects in our Bounded Volume. If a user closes our main Bounded Volume...sometimes it quits the app. Sometimes it doesn't. If we go back to the home screen and reopen the app, our main Bounded Volume doesn't always appear, and just the Native UI windows we left open are visible. But, we can sometimes still hear sounds that are playing in our Bounded Volume. What solutions are there to make sure our Bounded Volume always appears when the app is open?

In the particle effect of RealityKit, there is a Type: ParticleEmitterComponent.Presets He can invoke certain particle effects in certain systems, but I am interested in learning how to modify these particle entities (such as adjusting the color, the number of particles, the generation range…)?

Hi, I am a new developer. I want to add articulated objects and deformable objects into my AR game. I haven't found any tutorial on this, I hope to interact with these objects. Please let me know if this is available in visionOS.

When you click the button in the background of three horizontal lines, when the view is about to appear, add buried event statistics, but click the button to close it, it will repeat the view will appear method API, equivalent to the view method repeated execution twice, resulting in incorrect buried event statistics

On Xcode 26 and visionOS 26, apple provides observable property for Entity, so we can easily interact with Entity between RealityScene and SwiftUI, but there is a issue: It's fine to observe Entity's position and scale properties in Slider, but can't observe orientation properties in Slider.

Hello, I checked following documentations. Vision | Apple Developer Documentation Discover Swift enhancements in the Vision framework - WWDC24 - Videos - Apple Developer I saw Vision Framework is available on visionOS. So I want to know that if it's possible using Vision Framework on visionOS for tracking human and animal body poses. Or are there some limits to use this on visionOS?

In the DestinationVideo demo, the onAppear in UpNextView is triggered again when it is closed, but I only want it to be triggered once. How can I achieve this? Alternatively, I would like to capture the button click events in the player menu, as shown in the screenshot below.
