"Apple's Vision Pro is a curious product it initially wowed me two years ago, but it was hard to ignore that the visionOS platform felt incomplete without dedicated apps for YouTube and Netflix. Well, it seems that Google has finally decided to take the Vision Pro seriously, as it's launching a YouTube app on the platform today. Previously, you could only view YouTube videos via Safari, or through third-party apps like Tubular Pro."
"According to an Apple representative, the YouTube Vision Pro app features every video on on the service, including shorts, 360, 3D and VR 180 content. I haven't tried it myself yet, but it certainly couldn't be worse than trying to navigate through YouTube's desktop app via finger gestures. Now that Google is spinning up its Android XR ecosystem, the company probably couldn't avoid the Vision Pro for long. And don't forget, we may also see a cheaper Vision Air next year."
"Your move, Netflix. If you buy something through a link in this article, we may earn commission."
Google launched a native YouTube app for Apple Vision Pro that provides full access to the service, including shorts, 360, 3D, and VR 180 content. Prior access to YouTube on Vision Pro relied on Safari or third-party apps like Tubular Pro. The native app promises a more natural viewing experience than navigating the desktop interface with finger gestures. Google’s development of an Android XR ecosystem aligns with support for Vision Pro. A lower-cost Vision Air model may arrive next year. Netflix currently lacks a dedicated Vision Pro app, leaving an open opportunity.
