ReplayKit is used for capturing and sharing screen content, including the entire view inside Vision Pro, with the passthrough camera feed. This feature is particularly useful for scenarios like a technician in the field making a call to an expert back at the office, allowing them to share their actual view, including both the passthrough camera and the visionOS windows on top of it. This functionality is implemented through the system's built-in broadcast feature, requiring the user to utilize the system's start broadcast button each time they start a screen capture or share.

For more details, you can refer to the session Introducing enterprise APIs for visionOS.
