Favorite Feature Announced at WWDC About visionOS
One of the standout features announced for visionOS at WWDC was the enhanced support for volumetric apps and powerful new enterprise APIs. This elevates spatial computing to a new level, making it easier to build shared apps and games. The Vision Pro has been a significant focus, with over 1000 apps already available on the App Store, showcasing the enthusiasm and innovation from the developer community. For more details, you can check out the Platforms State of the Union session.
SharePlay Related Features
There were several exciting updates related to SharePlay on visionOS. The session "Customize spatial Persona templates in SharePlay" covered how FaceTime on visionOS takes advantage of spatial Personas to create a true sense of presence. This makes FaceTime with spatial Personas feel like you're in the room together. SharePlay apps, like the Freeform app shown in the session, are a core part of this experience. By adopting SharePlay, developers can extend the shared context provided by FaceTime to their apps, ensuring visual and spatial consistency among all participants. For more details, you can check out the Customize spatial Persona templates in SharePlay session.
Additionally, new features in Xcode 16 allow developers to create simulated FaceTime calls on the visionOS simulator, which is a game-changer for developing SharePlay apps. This allows developers to fully build out their apps without needing to make real FaceTime calls on a device. For more details, you can check out the Customize spatial Persona templates in SharePlay session.
