Hello everyone, I'm developing an app for visionOS that utilizes HealthKit to query heart rate data. However, I'm encountering an issue where the app doesn't retrieve the latest heart rate values. Specifically, it fails to get live heart rate data even after the data has been saved to the Health app. The readings my app displays are outdated and do not match the current values shown in the Health app. Here's what I've tried so far: Fetching Heart Rate Samples: Used HKSampleQuery and HKAnchoredObjectQuery to fetch the most recent heart rate samples. Despite this, the data retrieved is still not up-to-date. Checking Permissions: Ensured that all necessary HealthKit permissions are granted. The app has authorization to read heart rate data and write workout data. My questions are: Is there a known issue or limitation with HealthKit on visionOS that prevents apps from accessing the latest heart rate data? Are there additional steps or configurations required to access live heart rate data in visionOS apps? Has anyone successfully implemented live heart rate monitoring on visionOS, and if so, could you share how you achieved it?

Hello, We've been working for months now on an App for the Vision Pro. (it's been great btw!) We already have an App in the App Store for iOS, and have been migrating our platform from the Microsoft Hololens 2 to the AVP: https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/9NPPP031VHD1 We require the Main Camera access and already have gotten the Enterprise.license for development purposes. Unfortunately, we cannot publish our Business App (which uses an Enterprise API) under the same Name/Bundle ID as our iOS App because it would conflict with our current Distribution Method. We arrived at the conclusion that we need a new Enterprise.license under a different Bundle ID to create a new App for the Business Store. Has anyone been in the same boat as us, and tried to publish to the Business Store while already having an App in the Public App Store under the same name? We applied to get another license for distribution under another name (with "Pro" at the end), but it's been stuck in limbo for over a month now (probably because the new bundle ID doesn't have any track record). Anyhow, thanks for any help, we're open to suggestions as to how to proceed!

Is there any size guidance for the new WidgetKit integration on visionOS? The Widget HIG provides dimensions for all the widget size classes on iOS, iPadOS and watchOS, but has not been updated for visionOS. https://developer.apple.com/design/human-interface-guidelines/widgets My potential widget use case is image based, so I'm looking to better understand the optimal size, resolution etc I would need, particularly for the new visionOS specific extra large widget size.

Hello! I'm a developer of Ping Pong for Apple Vision Pro (Ping Pong Club). I'm experiencing an issues with collisions between ball and paddle. Sometimes the ball just unexpectedly flying away like it has been hit to hard. I believe this is happening because hand anchors are jittering (ping pong paddle has hand anchor component) and at the time of collision unnecessary micro motion produced. I've build a demo app to demonstrate that: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gBh-DsXuVZdvDrrD7gJcbJ_hg7tvVKUV/view?usp=share_link Video: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1poPbsJdBz87edqrWIfBt1eSVzfm5CTek/view?usp=sharing Is there a way to add some threshold to prevent jittering?

I am honored that I successfully participated in the "Envision the future: Build great apps for visionOS"(https://developer.apple.com/events/view/ZCH7ZUY24C/dashboard) conference. However, unfortunately, I am in China, and due to the visa problem (because it usually takes at least 2 months to apply for a visa, but it only takes about 10 days from the time I received the notice to the meeting), I can't go to the United States to participate in the site. So I hope Apple can place an iPad on site and create a FaceTime link, and then I can make a call to this iPad. I also told Apple about this suggestion, but now there are only a few days left to start. They didn't reply to me. Even Apple has sent me the ticket to the Developer Center and asked me to add it to the Apple Wallet App, which means that Apple has not There is a request to deal with me. So I hope you can give me some advice or help me for those who know about this aspect. For Apple's internal engineers, if possible, I hope you can contact the person who manages this meeting. I'm very grateful for this. Thank you.

Hello, There are odd artifacts (one looks like an image placeholder) appearing when dismissing an immersive space which is displaying an ImagePresentationComponent. Both artifacts look like widgets.. See below our simple code displaying the ImagePresentationComponent and the images of the odd artifacts that appear briefly when dismissing the immersive space. import OSLog import RealityKit import SwiftUI struct ImmersiveImageView: View { let logger = Logger(subsystem: AppConstant.SUBSYSTEM, category: "ImmersiveImageView") @Environment(AppModel.self) private var appModel var body: some View { RealityView { content in if let currentMedia = appModel.currentMedia, var imagePresentationComponent = currentMedia.imagePresentationComponent { let imagePresentationComponentEntity = Entity() switch currentMedia.type { case .iphoneSpatialMovie: logger.info("\(#function) \(#line) spatial3DImmersive display for \(String(describing: currentMedia))") imagePresentationComponent.desiredViewingMode = .spatial3DImmersive case .twoD: logger.info("\(#function) \(#line) spatial3DImmersive display for \(String(describing: currentMedia))") imagePresentationComponent.desiredViewingMode = .spatial3DImmersive case .visionProConvertedSpatialPhoto: logger.info("\(#function) \(#line) spatialStereoImmersive display for \(String(describing: currentMedia))") imagePresentationComponent.desiredViewingMode = .spatialStereoImmersive default : logger.error("\(#function) \(#line) Unsupported media type \(currentMedia.type)") assertionFailure("Unsupported media type \(currentMedia.type)") } imagePresentationComponentEntity.components.set(imagePresentationComponent) imagePresentationComponentEntity.position = AppConstant.Position.spacialImagePosition content.add(imagePresentationComponentEntity) } let toggleViewAttachmentComponent = ViewAttachmentComponent(rootView: ToggleImmersiveSpaceButton()) let toggleViewAttachmentComponentEntity = Entity(components: toggleViewAttachmentComponent) toggleViewAttachmentComponentEntity.position = SIMD3<Float>( AppConstant.Position.spacialImagePosition.x + 1, AppConstant.Position.spacialImagePosition.y, AppConstant.Position.spacialImagePosition.z ) toggleViewAttachmentComponentEntity.scale = AppConstant.Scale.attachments content.add(toggleViewAttachmentComponentEntity) } } }

I have an application running on visionOS 2.0 that uses the ARKit C API to create anchors and listen for updates. I am running an ARKit session with a WorldTrackingProvider (and a CameraFrameProvider, if that is relevant) Then, I am registering a callback using ar_world_tracking_provider_set_anchor_update_handler_f When updates arrive I iterate over the updated anchors using ar_world_anchors_enumerate_anchors_f. Then, as described in the https://developer.apple.com/documentation/visionos/tracking-points-in-world-space documentation, I walk around and hold down the Digital Crown to reposition the current space. This resets the world origin to my current position. When this happens, anchor updates arrive. In most cases, the anchor updates return the new transform (using ar_world_anchor_get_origin_from_anchor_transform) but sometimes I get an anchor update that reports the transform of the anchor from before the world origin was repositioned. Meaning instead of staying in place in the physical world, the world anchor moves relative to me. I can work around this by calling ar_world_tracking_provider_copy_all_world_anchors_f which provides me with the correct transform, but this async method also adds some noticeable delay to the anchor updates. Is this already a known issue?

I believe I have created a videoMaterial and assigned it to a mesh with code I found in the Developer's Documentation but Im getting this error. "Trailing closure passed to parameter of type 'String' that does not accept a closure" I have attached a photo of the code and where the error happens. Any help will greatly be appreciated.

We are currently working with the Enterprise APIs for visionOS 2 and have successfully obtained the necessary entitlements for passthrough camera access. Our goal is to capture images of external real-world objects using the passthrough camera of the Vision Pro, not just take screenshots or screen captures. Our specific use case involves: 1. Accessing the raw passthrough camera feed. 2. Capturing high-resolution images of objects in the real world through the camera. 3. Processing and saving these images for further analysis within our custom enterprise app. We would greatly appreciate any guidance, tutorials, or sample code that could help us achieve this functionality. If there are specific APIs or best practices for handling real-world image capture via passthrough cameras with the Enterprise APIs, please let us know.

After creating a ". plist" file in the "Document" folder of the app, uninstalling and reinstalling the app, the "FileManager. default. fileExists (atPath: folderURL. path())" code returns true. I checked if the ". plist" file was not found in the "Document" folder of the app. Is this a bug in the VisionOS system

I'm placing sphere at finger tip and updating its position as hand move. Finger joint tracking functions correctly, but I’ve observed noticeable latency in hand tracking updates whenever a UITextView becomes active. This lag happens intermittently during app usage, lasting about 5–10 seconds, after which the latency disappears and the sphere starts following the finger joints immediately. When I open the immersive space for the first time, the profiler shows a large performance spike upto 328%. After that, it stabilizes and runs smoothly. Note: I don’t observe any lag when CPU usage spikes to 300% (upon immersive view load) yet the lag still occurs even when CPU usage remains below 100%. I’m using the following code for hand tracking: private func processHandTrackingUpdates() async { for await update in handTracking.anchorUpdates { let handAnchor = update.anchor if handAnchor.isTracked { switch handAnchor.chirality { case .left: leftHandAnchor = handAnchor updateHandJoints(for: handAnchor, with: leftHandJointEntities) case .right: rightHandAnchor = handAnchor updateHandJoints(for: handAnchor, with: rightHandJointEntities) } } else { switch handAnchor.chirality { case .left: leftHandAnchor = nil hideAllJoints(in: leftHandJointEntities) case .right: rightHandAnchor = nil hideAllJoints(in: rightHandJointEntities) } } await MainActor.run { handTrackingData.processNewHandAnchors( leftHand: self.leftHandAnchor, rightHand: self.rightHandAnchor ) } } } And here’s the function I’m using to update the joint positions: private func updateHandJoints( for handAnchor: HandAnchor, with jointEntities: [HandSkeleton.JointName: Entity] ) { guard handAnchor.isTracked else { hideAllJoints(in: jointEntities) return } // Check if the little finger tip and intermediate base are both tracked. if let tipJoint = handAnchor.handSkeleton?.joint(.littleFingerTip), let intermediateBaseJoint = handAnchor.handSkeleton?.joint(.littleFingerIntermediateTip), tipJoint.isTracked, intermediateBaseJoint.isTracked, let pinkySphere = jointEntities[.littleFingerTip] { // Convert joint transforms to world space. let tipTransform = handAnchor.originFromAnchorTransform * tipJoint.anchorFromJointTransform let intermediateBaseTransform = handAnchor.originFromAnchorTransform * intermediateBaseJoint.anchorFromJointTransform // Extract positions from the transforms. let tipPosition = SIMD3<Float>(tipTransform.columns.3.x, tipTransform.columns.3.y, tipTransform.columns.3.z) let intermediateBasePosition = SIMD3<Float>(intermediateBaseTransform.columns.3.x, intermediateBaseTransform.columns.3.y, intermediateBaseTransform.columns.3.z) // Calculate the midpoint. let midpointPosition = (tipPosition + intermediateBasePosition) / 2.0 // Position the sphere at the midpoint and make it visible. pinkySphere.isEnabled = true pinkySphere.transform.translation = midpointPosition } else { // If either joint is not tracked, hide the sphere. jointEntities[.littleFingerTip]?.isEnabled = false } // Update the positions of all other hand joint spheres. for (jointName, entity) in jointEntities { if jointName == .littleFingerTip { // Already handled the pinky above. continue } guard let joint = handAnchor.handSkeleton?.joint(jointName), joint.isTracked else { entity.isEnabled = false continue } entity.isEnabled = true let jointTransform = handAnchor.originFromAnchorTransform * joint.anchorFromJointTransform entity.transform.translation = SIMD3<Float>(jointTransform.columns.3.x, jointTransform.columns.3.y, jointTransform.columns.3.z) } } I’ve attached both a profiler trace and a video recording from Vision Pro that clearly demonstrate the issue. Profiler: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fDWyGj_fgxud2ngkGH_IVmuH_kO-z0XZ Vision Pro Recordings: https://drive.google.com/file/d/17qo3U9ivwYBsbaSm26fjaOokkJApbkz- https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LxTxgudMvWDhOqKVuhc3QaHfY_1x8iA0 Has anyone else experienced this behavior? My thought is that there might be some background calculations happening at the OS level causing this latency. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I am seeking a comprehensive pathway to learning Metal programming on VisionOS. The official documentation’s Pathway on Metal is insufficient in this regard. I kindly request that someone create a detailed pathway to assist me in this endeavor. The pathway should encompass the following key areas: Knowledge Base: Understand the fundamental principles of Metal and other frameworks, as well as basic concepts, to prepare for future learning. Metal3 (very important) : Gain a deep understanding of Metal itself, the programming language used to communicate with the GPU on the device to render graphics. This knowledge forms the foundation for all Metal-related tasks. Compositor Services and ARKit (important) : Learn how to display Metal scenes within the Vision device’s space and enable augmented reality (AR) and hand interaction. This knowledge is essential for creating interactive and immersive experiences. Metal Performance Shaders: Acquire expertise in optimizing material rendering to enhance performance. MetalKit: Simplifies the tasks that display your Metal content onscreen. MetalFX: Develop proficiency in using MetalFX to improve rendering efficiency and achieve visually stunning effects. I would appreciate it if you could provide me with a detailed and comprehensive pathway, including the URLs of relevant documents, to guide my learning journey. Thank you for your assistance.

Hi everyone, I’m working on a project in Reality Composer Pro, and I’ve encountered an issue with vertex animations. Here’s what I’ve done: I created a model in Blender, which includes two animations: One that scales the vertices of the model. Another that moves the model's position. I imported both animations into Reality Composer Pro, and the position animation works fine, but the vertex scaling animation does not seem to work. What I’m Trying to Achieve: I want the vertex scaling animation to play correctly in Reality Composer Pro alongside the movement animation. Problem: The position animation works as expected, but the vertex scaling animation does not work when applied in Reality Composer Pro. I have checked the vertex scaling animation in other software, and it works fine there. The issue seems to be specific to Reality Composer Pro. Is vertex animation scaling supported in Reality Composer Pro? If so, what might be causing this issue? Any advice or solutions would be greatly appreciated!

I have been playing around with the idea of drawing directly onto the pixels of the Vision Pro, as I am working on a telepresence app that streams a live stereoscopic feed from an articulated robot neck to the wearer. I was playing around in the Compositor Services demo and modified it to show the following. I created a grid pattern using normalized device coordinates (-1 to 1) and it looks great when it shows up in the simulator as shown below. I wanted to see the effects of lens distortion on the image so I launched this script inside the actual Vision Pro, it seems that each eye has only a portion of this screen visible. I have included a screen capture of a screen recording inside of the Vision Pro when running this modified app. The lines appear straight, which says to me that there must be some automatic pre-distortion correction applied (similar to the image shown below taken from an AVP teardown that I cannot link here). However, I am wondering why the grid appears cropped and what the bounds of the frame are defined by?

My name is Tom Shannon, a developer with Omnia (d.b.a Aequilibrium Inc.). We were recently approved for some of the Enterprise APIs for the Vision Pro. You can reference the history through our Case-ID: 9237594 We are contacting you for assistance as we have downloaded the entitlement license provided and added it to our target for an application under the bundle id: com.omnia.spatialbrowser Then under my project and with my developer account, which is under the Aequilibrium Inc. account (279PV9XKZ2), we tried to add the Barcode Scanner Enterprise API entitlement, but this does not show up as an option for us. I am on XCode 16.1 beta (16B5001e) for reference! Any help would be greatly appreciated. Best,

Spatial photo in RealityView has a default corner radius. I made a parallel effect with spatial photos in ScrollView(like Spatial Gallery), but the corner radius disappeared on left and right spatial photos. I've tried .clipShape and .mask modifiers, but they did't work. How to clip or mask spatial photo with corner radius effect?

I have two Apple Vision Pros so that I can make and test a multi-player immersive reality game. But I am one developer, so I need to be able to take one Apple Vision Pro off, and put the other one on to see what the other device is seeing, and to ensure my game information is correctlly being sent over the network with multipeer connectivity. But when I take one off, the Apple Vision Pro immediately goes to sleep. With Apple Vision Pro OS 1, I could put a piece of paper into the pro and they would stay on for hours, and I could take them on and off and debug my game. But now with VisionOS 2, even with the paper they soon go to sleep. Is there a setting I can change or override as a developer to stop this auto sleep or auto lock? I need to check things like: when two devices are on the network, can I see them both so that players can select each other from a menu? can i send object positions back and forth Thank you.
