Whether you call it a VR headset, a mixed reality headset, or a spatial computer, Apple is off to a strong start with the Vision Pro. Less than a year in there are more than 1,000 native apps available on its visionOS operating system, and since it's built on iOS, iPadOS, and MacOS, there are also well over a million Vision Pro-compatible apps, too. Apple will be updating visionOS to version 2 soon as well, expanding the headset's capabilities.
We've been closely following Apple's debut mixed reality system since the first rumors of it started circulating, and actively using it since it launched. We've also been covering VR/XR headsets for well over a decade. We know the Vision Pro's ins and outs and have worked extensively with its native visionOS apps and compatible apps. With that in mind, here are 31 Vision Pro apps you should try right now. Each app on this list is fun, interesting, or useful in some way, and we ran each one to make sure it's worthy of inclusion. They're a good representation of the current state of Apple's spatial computer and a taste of what it could become.
