Apple today released visionOS 1.3, the third major update to the visionOS operating system that launched alongside the Vision Pro in February. visionOS 1.3 comes a little over a month after the launch of visionOS 1.2.

‌visionOS‌ updates can be installed by going to the Settings app on the Vision Pro, selecting the General section, and choosing Software Update. The Vision Pro headset will need to be removed to install new software, with a progress bar available on the front EyeSight display.

There are no new features in the visionOS 1.3 update, but it does bring small bug fixes and security improvements.

Apple will soon transition from visionOS 1 to visionOS 2, the next-generation version of visionOS. visionOS 2 is set to be released in September.

I think Apple’s most costly failure would be the car, but this could get close.

I’m guessing that anyone who kept it would be tech savvy enough to be on visionOS 2. While it’s not nearly the step forward I’d like, it’s an improvement over 1.x.

Not sure what's all the negativity for, got a chance to try it out in the apple store since they're doing demos now in europe and it was really cool. Had a friend that was very sceptical of the whole thing and both came away impressed. Are we ready to drop 4000euros on it? nope. But I really hope apple keeps sticking with it and improving it so by generation 2 and 3 it's something for everyone.
Apple will. These negative people have no real clue what's coming their way. The current AVP is for very early adopters and developers only, it's not a general consumer device. The price should be enough of a hint.

TIL visionOS doesn't use Semantic Versioning ('https://semver.org/'). If there aren't features, not sure what makes this 1.3 vs 1.2.1
