A is there a way to get big huge notitifications for Shareplay invitations ? B can i have the notifications inside the app ? we have a corporate app to check archtecture projects we want to share these 3d spaces walking inside with near users in the same place to discuss about the project .. but it takes too long shareplay invitation is a small circle on top, if the others users just put the vision without configuring eyes and hands... it's gonna be impossible thanks for sharing and giving us support

Hello, There are three issues I am running into with a default template project + additional minimal code changes: the Sphere_Left entity always overlaps the Sphere_Right entity. when I release the Sphere_Left entity, it does not remain sticking to the Sphere_Right entity when I release the Sphere_Left entity, it distances itself from the Sphere_Right entity When I manipulate the Sphere_Right entity, these above 3 issues do not occur: I get a correct and expected behavior. These issues are simple to replicate: Create a new project in XCode Choose visionOS -> App, then click Next Name your project, and leave all other options as defaults: Initial Scene: Window, Immersive Space Renderer: RealityKit, Immersive Space: Mixed, then click Next Save you project anywhere... Replace the entire ImmersiveView.swift file with the below code. Run. Try to manipulate the left sphere, you should get the same issues I mentioned above If you restart the project, and manipulate only the right sphere, you should get the correct expected behaviors, and no issues. I am running this in macOS 26, XCode 26, on visionOS 26, all released lately. ImmersiveView Code: // // ImmersiveView.swift // import OSLog import SwiftUI import RealityKit import RealityKitContent struct ImmersiveView: View { private let logger = Logger(subsystem: "com.testentitiessticktogether", category: "ImmersiveView") @State var collisionBeganUnfiltered: EventSubscription? var body: some View { RealityView { content in // Add the initial RealityKit content if let immersiveContentEntity = try? await Entity(named: "Immersive", in: realityKitContentBundle) { content.add(immersiveContentEntity) // Add manipulation components setupManipulationComponents(in: immersiveContentEntity) collisionBeganUnfiltered = content.subscribe(to: CollisionEvents.Began.self) { collisionEvent in Task { @MainActor in handleCollision(entityA: collisionEvent.entityA, entityB: collisionEvent.entityB) } } } } } private func setupManipulationComponents(in rootEntity: Entity) { logger.info("\(#function) \(#line) ") let sphereNames = ["Sphere_Left", "Sphere_Right"] for name in sphereNames { guard let sphere = rootEntity.findEntity(named: name) else { logger.error("\(#function) \(#line) Failed to find \(name) entity") assertionFailure("Failed to find \(name) entity") continue } ManipulationComponent.configureEntity(sphere) var manipulationComponent = ManipulationComponent() manipulationComponent.releaseBehavior = .stay sphere.components.set(manipulationComponent) } logger.info("\(#function) \(#line) Successfully set up manipulation components") } private func handleCollision(entityA: Entity, entityB: Entity) { logger.info("\(#function) \(#line) Collision between \(entityA.name) and \(entityB.name)") guard entityA !== entityB else { return } if entityB.isAncestor(of: entityA) { logger.debug("\(#function) \(#line) \(entityA.name) already under \(entityB.name); skipping reparent") return } if entityA.isAncestor(of: entityB) { logger.info("\(#function) \(#line) Skip reparent: \(entityA.name) is an ancestor of \(entityB.name)") return } reparentEntities(child: entityA, parent: entityB) entityA.components[ParticleEmitterComponent.self]?.burst() } private func reparentEntities(child: Entity, parent: Entity) { let childBounds = child.visualBounds(relativeTo: nil) let parentBounds = parent.visualBounds(relativeTo: nil) let maxEntityWidth = max(childBounds.extents.x, parentBounds.extents.x) let childPosition = child.position(relativeTo: nil) let parentPosition = parent.position(relativeTo: nil) let currentDistance = distance(childPosition, parentPosition) child.setParent(parent, preservingWorldTransform: true) logger.info("\(#function) \(#line) Set \(child.name) parent to \(parent.name)") child.components.remove(ManipulationComponent.self) logger.info("\(#function) \(#line) Removed ManipulationComponent from child \(child.name)") if currentDistance > maxEntityWidth { let direction = normalize(childPosition - parentPosition) let newPosition = parentPosition + direction * maxEntityWidth child.setPosition(newPosition - parentPosition, relativeTo: parent) logger.info("\(#function) \(#line) Adjusted position: distance was \(currentDistance), now \(maxEntityWidth)") } } } fileprivate extension Entity { func isAncestor(of other: Entity) -> Bool { var current: Entity? = other.parent while let node = current { if node === self { return true } current = node.parent } return false } } #Preview(immersionStyle: .mixed) { ImmersiveView() .environment(AppModel()) }

Dear all, I´m using Unity 6.2 beta and Xcode 16.2. I´m creating a simple framework to use the text to speech functionality in VisionOS from unity. The framework is created in Swift. I create an objective-c wrapper with the following declarations: ... void _initTTS(int); ... I create the framework, import it in Unity and call the functions in a c# wrapper class. The code is as follows: public static class TTSPluginManager { [DllImport("TTS_Vision"] private static extern void _initTTS(int val); ... public static void Initialize() { #if UNITY_VISIONOS _initTTS(0); #else Debug.LogWarning("NativeTTS.Initialize called on a non-iOS platform. Ignoring."); #endif } } I have managed to compile and run the program in the Apple Vision Pro, but I keep on getting the following error: DllNotFoundException: TTS_Vision assembly: type: member:(null) TTSPluginManager.Initialize () (at Assets/Plugins/TTSPluginManager.cs:33) LecturePortalManager.OnCreateStory (Ink.Runtime.Story story) (at Assets/AVRLecture/LecturePortalManager.cs:17) InkLoader.StartStory () (at Assets/AVRLecture/InkLoader.cs:24) InkLoader.Start () (at Assets/AVRLecture/InkLoader.cs:18) If I run the generated code from Xcode, I can see the app in the AVP, but I keep getting a loading error: DllNotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'TTS_Vision'. Tried the load the following dynamic libraries: Unable to load dynamic library '/TTS_Vision' because of 'Failed to open the requested dynamic library (0x06000000) dlerror() = dlopen(/TTS_Vision, 0x0005): tried: '/TTS_Vision' (no such file) at TTSPluginManager.Initialize () [0x00000] in <00000000000000000000000000000000>:0 at LecturePortalManager.OnCreateStory (Ink.Runtime.Story story) [0x00000] in <00000000000000000000000000000000>:0 I can see in the generated code that the framework (TTS_Vision) is there, but the path seems wrong. I've tried to add more options to the searched paths, with no success... Any hints or suggestions are much more appreciated.

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 downloaded the file through Scoot, and when I remove VisionPro, the app will call the StreamDelegate method and return ". endEncountered". How can I solve this problem? Thank you！

I would like to visualize a point cloud taken from a lidar. Assuming I can get the XYZ values of every point (of which there may be hundreds or thousands), what is the most efficient way for me to create a point cloud using this information?

At a recent community meeting we were wondering how Apple creates this soft-edge effect around the occlusion cutouts. We see this effect on keyboard cutouts, iPhone cutouts, and in progressive spaces. An example: Notice the soft edged around the occlusion cutout for the keyboard One of our members created some Shader Graph materials to explore soft edges. These work by sending data into the opacity channel of the PreviewSurface node. Unfortunately, the Occlusion Surface nodes lack any sort of input. If you know how to blend these concepts with RealityKit Occlusion, please let us know!

App Icon created with Icon Composer is empty for visionOS app We are developing a universal app, and the app’s icon was created using Icon Composer. Xcode 26, RC visionOS 26 and visionOS 2.5 App Icons on macOS, iOS, and iPadOS are correct We have archived the app for macOS and iOS and successfully uploaded it to the App Store. This strongly suggests that the App Icon configuration in our project settings is correct for these platforms. App Icon issue on visionOS However, the visionOS app icon is not working as expected: When testing on the Vision Pro simulator (versions 2.x and 26.0), the app icon appears empty. When archiving and submitting to the App Store, the process fails with the following error: The app’s Info.plist file is missing the CFBundleIcons.CFBundlePrimaryIcon key for the visionOS App Icon. This suggests that the project’s App Icon settings may not be correctly applied for visionOS builds. Request for assistance We are preparing to release our app, one of the first to support Liquid Glass, and would greatly appreciate guidance on how to resolve this issue with the visionOS app icon.

Hi guys! I wanted to study this new ManipulationComponent(), but I keep getting a warning that I don’t understand, even in a very simple scenario. i don't have any collisions just binding the Manipulation the warning message is : ** Entity returned from EntityWrapper.makeEntity(context:) was already parented to another entity. This is not supported and may lead to unexpected behavior. SwiftUI adds entities to internally-managed entity hierarchies.** RealityView { content, attachments in if let loadedModel = try? await Entity(named: "cloud_glb", in: realityKitContentBundle) { content.add(loadedModel) loadedModel.components.set(ManipulationComponent()) } Thanks !

Hello, For GuessTogether source code, it seems like the code assumes that you're already in a FaceTime call before pressing the custom SharePlay button (labeled "Play Guess Together"). If not already on a FaceTime call, my Apple Vision Pro and the visionOS simulator both do nothing after throwing warnings. Is this intended behavior? If so, how do I make it so that pressing the button can also initiate FaceTime calls? Is this allowed? Thank you!

I've been struggling with this for far too long so I've decided to finally come here and see if anyone can point me to the documentation that I'm missing. I'm sure it's something so simple but I just can't figure it out. I can SharePlay our test app with my brother (device to device) but when I open a volumetric window, it says "not shared" under it. I assume this will likely fix the video sharing problem we have as well. Everything else works so smooth but SharePlay has just been such a struggle for me. It's the last piece to the puzzle before we can put it on the App Store.

When I was developing the visionOS 26beta Widget, I found that it could not work normally when the real vision OS was running, and an error would appear. Please adopt container background api It is worth mentioning that this problem does not occur on the visionOS virtual machine. Does anyone know what the reason and solution are, or whether this is a visionOS error that needs Feedback? Thank you!

I developed an app on VisionPro and created a button that allows users to exit the app instead of being forced to exit. I use the ”exit (0)“ scheme to exit the application, but when I re-enter, the loaded window is not the initial window, so is there any relevant code that can be used? Thank you

I have a problem with the wall plane detection using visionOS/ARKit: I am using ARKitSession's PlaneDetectionProvider detection.wall in the space of visionOS. I recorded the position and rotation information of the first detected plane, but found that the rotation value will be facing when the user starts the space. There is a deviation in different directions. That is to say, even if the plane is located on the same wall, the rotation quaternion will be different. I hope that no matter from which direction the user enters the scan, the real direction of the wall can be correctly obtained so that the virtual content can be accurately aligned with the wall. I have tried to use anchor.originFromAnchorTransform or Transform.rotation directly, but the rotation value is still affected by the user's initial orientation. In addition, I would like to know whether the user's initial orientation will affect the location information. If so, please provide a solution. Thank you!

I'm developing an app that uses CloudKit synchronization with SwiftData and on visionOS I added an App Settings bundle. I have noticed that sometimes, when the app is open and the user changes a setting from the App Settings bundle, the following fatal error occurs: SwiftData/BackingData.swift:831: Fatal error: This model instance was destroyed by calling ModelContext.reset and is no longer usable. The setting is read within the App struct in the visionOS app target using @AppStorage and this value is in turn used to set the passthrough video dimming via the .preferredSurroundingsEffect modifier. The setting allows the user to specify the dimming level as dark, semi dark, or ultra dark. The fatal error appears to occur intermittently although the first time it was observed was after adding the settings bundle. As such, I suspect there is some connection between those code changes and this fatal error even though they do not directly relate to SwiftData.

Hi everyone, I’m encountering a memory overflow issue in my visionOS app and I’d like to confirm if this is expected behavior or if I’m missing something in cleanup. App Context The app showcases apartments in real scale using AR. Apartments are heavy USDZ models (hundreds of thousands of triangles, high-resolution textures). Users can walk inside the apartments, and performance is good even close to hardware limits. Flow The app starts in a full immersive space (RealityView) for selecting the apartment. When an apartment is selected, a new ImmersiveSpace opens and the apartment scene loads. The scene includes multiple USDZ models, EnvironmentResources, and dynamic textures for skyboxes. When the user dismisses the experience, we attempt cleanup: Nulling out all entity references. Removing ModelComponents. Clearing cached textures and skyboxes. Forcing dictionaries/collections to empty. Despite this cleanup, memory usage remains very high. Problem After dismissing the ImmersiveSpace, memory does not return to baseline. Check the attached screenshot of the profiling made using Instruments: Initial state: ~30MB (main menu). After loading models sequentially: ~3.3GB. Skybox textures bring it near ~4GB. After dismissing the experience (at ~01:00 mark): memory only drops slightly (to ~2.66GB). When loading the second apartment, memory continues to increase until ~5GB, at which point the app crashes due to memory pressure. The issue is consistently visible under VM: IOSurface in Instruments. No leaks are detected. So it looks like RealityKit (or lower-level frameworks) keeps caching meshes and textures, and does not free them when RealityView is ended. But for my use case, these resources should be fully released once the ImmersiveSpace is dismissed, since new apartments will load entirely different models and textures. Cleanup Code Example Here’s a simplified version of the cleanup I’m doing: func clearAllRoomEntities() { for (entityName, entity) in entityFromMarker { entity.removeFromParent() if let modelEntity = entity as? ModelEntity { modelEntity.components.removeAll() modelEntity.children.forEach { $0.removeFromParent() } modelEntity.clearTexturesAndMaterials() } entityFromMarker[entityName] = nil removeSkyboxPortals(from: entityName) } entityFromMarker.removeAll() } extension ModelEntity { func clearTexturesAndMaterials() { guard var modelComponent = self.model else { return } for index in modelComponent.materials.indices { removeTextures(from: &modelComponent.materials[index]) } modelComponent.materials.removeAll() self.model = modelComponent self.model = nil } private func removeTextures(from material: inout any Material) { if var pbr = material as? PhysicallyBasedMaterial { pbr.baseColor.texture = nil pbr.emissiveColor.texture = nil pbr.metallic.texture = nil pbr.roughness.texture = nil pbr.normal.texture = nil pbr.ambientOcclusion.texture = nil pbr.clearcoat.texture = nil material = pbr } else if var simple = material as? SimpleMaterial { simple.color.texture = nil material = simple } } } Questions Is this expected RealityKit behavior (textures/meshes cached internally)? Is there a way to force RealityKit to release GPU resources tied to USDZ models when they’re no longer used? Should dismissing the ImmersiveSpace automatically free those IOSurfaces, or do I need to handle this differently? Any guidance, best practices, or confirmation would be hugely appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Using Xcode v26 Beta 6 on macOS v26 Beta 25a5349a When pressing on the home button of the visionOS simulator, I am not positioned in the middle of the room like would normally be. This occurred when moving a lot in the space to find an element added to an ImmersiveSpace. How to resolve: restart simulator device. See attached the pictures of the visionOSSimulatorCorrectHomePosition and the visionOSSimulatorMisallignedHomePosition.

Hi everyone, I’m currently learning about ParticleEmitterComponentParticleEmitterComponent and exploring the sample app provided in the Simulating particles in your visionOS app documentation. In the sample app, when I set the EmitterPreset to fireworks from the settings panel on the left side of the window and choose SystemImage, I noticed two issues: The image applied to mainEmitter appears clipped or cropped. The image on spawnedEmitter does not update to the selected SystemImage. What I want to achieve: Apply the same SystemImage to both mainEmittermainEmitter and spawnedEmitterspawnedEmitter so that it displays correctly without clipping. Remove the animation that changes the size of spawnedEmitterspawnedEmitter over time and keep it at a constant size. Could someone explain which properties should be adjusted to achieve this behavior? Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Entity.animate() makes entity animation much easier, but in many cases, I want to break the progress because of some gestures, I couldn't find any way to do this, including tried entity.stopAllAnimations(), I have to wait till Entity.animate() completes. iOS 26 / visionOS 26

I’m trying to play an Apple Immersive video in the .aivu format using VideoPlayerComponent using the official documentation found here: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/RealityKit/VideoPlayerComponent Here is a simplified version of the code I'm running in another application: import SwiftUI import RealityKit import AVFoundation struct ImmersiveView: View { var body: some View { RealityView { content in let player = AVPlayer(url: Bundle.main.url(forResource: "Apple_Immersive_Video_Beach", withExtension: "aivu")!) let videoEntity = Entity() var videoPlayerComponent = VideoPlayerComponent(avPlayer: player) videoPlayerComponent.desiredImmersiveViewingMode = .full videoPlayerComponent.desiredViewingMode = .stereo player.play() videoEntity.components.set(videoPlayerComponent) content.add(videoEntity) } } } Full code is here: https://github.com/tomkrikorian/AIVU-VideoPlayerComponentIssueSample But the video does not play in my project even though the file is correct (It can be played in Apple Immersive Video Utility) and I’m getting this error when the app crashes: App VideoPlayer+Component Caption: onComponentDidUpdate Media Type is invalid Domain=SpatialAudioServicesErrorDomain Code=2020631397 "xpc error" UserInfo={NSLocalizedDescription=xpc error} CA_UISoundClient.cpp:436 Got error -4 attempting to SetIntendedSpatialAudioExperience [0x101257490|InputElement #0|Initialize] Number of channels = 0 in AudioChannelLayout does not match number of channels = 2 in stream format. Video I’m using is the official sample that can be found here but tried several different files shot from my clients and the same error are displayed so the issue is definitely not the files but on the RealityKit side of things: https://developer.apple.com/documentation/immersivemediasupport/authoring-apple-immersive-video Steps to reproduce the issue: - Open AIVUPlayerSample project and run. Look at the logs. All code can be found in ImmersiveView.swift Sample file is included in the project Expected results: If I followed the documentation and samples provided, I should see my video played in full immersive mode inside my ImmersiveSpace. Am i doing something wrong in the code? I'm basically following the documentation here. Feedback ticket: FB19971306
