Apple's $3,499 face computer has been out for a minute, and the app flood is finally here.
Developers are dropping Vision Pro experiences left and right, and some of them are straight-up unhinged.
We're talking floating DJ decks, 3D basketball courts in your living room, and yes, a way to watch movies on a screen the size of a billboard.
Let's talk about what's actually popping.
Apple's own apps set the tone — spatial FaceTime calls where everyone's a floating bubble head, and a Cinema Environment that turns your bedroom into a literal movie theater.
But the third-party stuff is where it gets spicy.
Disney+ came out swinging with those immersive Marvel and Star Wars environments.
You can basically stand on Tatooine while watching The Mandalorian.
NBA fans got a courtside seat app that puts multiple live game feeds in your space like some sci-fi command center.
And Max dropped a Game of Thrones experience that lets you chill in a Westeros-themed room, which is either awesome or deeply concerning depending on your vibe.
The productivity side is where things get real though.
Apps like Spatial and Fantastical are letting you pin calendar events and windows around your room like you're Tony Stark.
Microsoft's suite showed up too, so you can drag Word and Excel into the void.
There's no huge AAA library yet, but indie devs are cooking.
We've seen puzzle games that use your actual room as the level, rhythm games that throw beats at your face, and a surprisingly solid version of Fruit Ninja that makes you feel like a ninja for real.
The Vision Pro is still a $3,499 developer toy for most folks.
The app store is growing, but it's not the must-have gadget for regular people yet.
If you've got the cash and you're a tech early adopter, sure, dive in.
Maybe wait for the cheaper version that's supposedly coming.
Here's my take: the Vision Pro app scene is giving serious "first iPhone App Store in 2008" energy.
Messy, experimental, and occasionally brilliant.
The hardware is wild, the price is wilder, and the apps are just getting started.
Final Thoughts
Keep your eyes on this one — the glow-up could be legendary.
