Apple Vision Pro Is Looking Like A Pretty Lonely Product
The Lede
Where are the apps for the Apple Vision Pro, the $3,500 headset Apple introduced earlier this year? This is a question we've asked repeatedly, and the answer seems to be pretty consistent: Developers aren't leaping to build anything for the Apple Vision Pro because they don't think many people are using the Apple Vision Pro.
Key Details
- Just two apps built specifically for the device debuted in September, according to Appfigures, an app-store tracking service. That's down from a high of 252 in February, following the AVP's launch.
- During Apple's most recent earnings call, CEO Tim Cook said there were "more than 2,500" native apps for the device.
- Regardless of the specific numbers, the Apple Vision Pro just doesn't seem to have broken through into pop culture, or even the tech version of pop culture.
