At WWDC 2024, several updates related to videos and SwiftUI were introduced:

  1. Auto-playing Videos in SwiftUI: In the session titled What’s new in SwiftUI, it was highlighted that SwiftUI now allows you to detect when a view's visibility changes due to scrolling. This feature enables the creation of experiences centered around content moving on or off-screen, such as auto-playing videos.

  2. SwiftUI for tvOS: The session Migrate your TVML app to SwiftUI discussed how SwiftUI can be used to build rich media catalog and streaming apps for tvOS, marking a shift from the deprecated TVML.

  3. Multiview Video Playback in visionOS: The session Explore multiview video playback in visionOS introduced the multiview architecture, which allows for simultaneous video watching, enhancing the immersive media viewing experience on visionOS.

These updates reflect Apple's ongoing efforts to enhance video experiences across its platforms using SwiftUI.
