To show all your photos in visionOS, you can use the Photos app. Here's how it works:

  1. Viewing Photos in a Grid: When you look at a grid of photos, even spatial ones, they are displayed in 2D. This helps in managing the display and avoiding disorientation.
  2. Viewing a Single Photo: When you select a single photo, it is shown with a feathered border that blends the photo content with the rest of your scene. This effect remains even when you enlarge the photo to full view.
  3. Full-Scale View: For the best experience, especially with spatial photos, it's recommended to view them at their true scale and centered in your view. This can be done by tapping the immersive button to see the photo at full scale.

For more detailed information, you can refer to the session Optimize for the spatial web (08:39).

Additionally, if you want to view panorama photos, you can follow a similar process:

  1. Viewing Panoramas: Panoramas are initially shown in a flat view. You can select a single panorama to view it larger.
  2. Immersive View: Tap the immersive button to see the panorama at full scale, which provides a wraparound display.

For more on this, you can check the session Optimize for the spatial web (11:38).
