Creating new experiences for cutting edge AR and spatial computing devices isn’t yet a smooth path. Key is great Design/Creator/Developer relations. Listen to this great podcast with Snap's Joe Darko voicesofvr.com/1677-snaps-a...

Presenter on stage delivers a talk titled "Design immersive and interactive experiences" to an audience. The slide shows the speaker's name, identified as a Design Evangelist.

If you're a UX researcher or designer and interested in interactive immersive content for spatial computing (the next era of entertainment). You should watch this session by Serenity Caldwell (Design Evangelist, Apple). youtube.com/live/leGqoF8... #spatialcomputing #userexperience

Finalist 3 is out after nine months of coding 😅 It's a daily planner that manages your calendars and reminders better than your Reminders app. I'm running a crazy launch special: get a lifetime license for $5 (five!) dollars

Step Into Vision has over 100 examples organized into some key topics.

✅ Spatial SwiftUI
✅ RealityKit Basics & Concepts
✅ System Gestures
✅ Working with App Scenes
✅ ARKit and Spatial Tracking

There's still a lot to cover, but I'm adding to this all the time.

A few visionOS 26 changes unlocked a ton of app ideas I had previous set aside.

🧩 Presentations in attachment greatly expand the possibilities for 2D/3D interfaces.
🚀 Spatial Layouts open new ways to organize and present data.
🔥 Widgets and window snapping enable a level of UI persistence.

The only thing that makes the new widgets and pinned windows appear fake in visionOS 26 is the quality of the video feed. Low light and dim rooms make the perfectly rendered objects stand out as digital objects.

Can't wait for future Vision Pros to get more lifelike passthrough.

Post-WWDC25 Thoughts: The Road Ahead for visionOS and the Vision Product Line — Tab To Tap This year I was invited to attend WWDC! It was a great honor and it feels like my investment over the past two years has been recognized by Apple and the Apple community. If you’ve read my previous…

SharedDuck shows a floating duck on your Vision Pro. If you share it with a nearby user using the share button (opposite the close button underneath the space), they'll see it in exactly the same position in the room. You can both walk around it and treat it like it was a real object in the room.

And in other wearable AI tech news, my Meta Ray Bans have stopped working again… Connectivity, LED not giving the right feedback, confusing customer support (and endless loops).

Bee.Computer: thoughts on an AI wearable before losing it after 2 days... After a recommendation by John Allsopp (whom I respect and trust on these types of things), I purchased a Bee.Computer online to pick up when I came to the US for WWDC & AWE this week.

Ok PSA for folks on the visionOS 26 beta:

It may take a while for your photo library to update. In the interim the storage may balloon.

It took a couple of restarts for me to finally see Photos offload its storage to iCloud.

But probably good to just give it some time!

#wwdc25

Huge congrats to you and the team for running such a great event :-)

It's now possible to show entities outside of a volume's scene bounds in visionOS by adjusting the clipping margins.

These entities are non-interactive and only work with volumes, but they’re still great for decorative effects. ☁

One more global catch-up!

Oh no! All the best for a quick recovery mate

Done! ✅
