Apple today released visionOS 2.2, the second major update to the visionOS 2 operating system that came out in September. visionOS 2.2 comes more than a month after the launch of visionOS 2.1.
visionOS 2.2 can be downloaded on all Vision Pro headsets by navigating to the Settings app, selecting the General section, and choosing the Software Update option.
To install an update, the Vision Pro headset needs to be removed, and there is a software progress bar available on the front EyeSight display.
visionOS 2.2 adds new wide and ultrawide aspect ratios to the Mac Virtual Display feature, so you can have more workspace when using the Vision Pro as a display for your Mac. Apple says that the ultrawide setting is the equivalent of two 5K monitors side by side.
The update also includes Multiview for watching up to five MLS and MLB games at once, and it lets you view spatial photos and videos that are embedded on web pages. Apple's full release notes for the update are below.
Mac Virtual Display - Use Mac apps and games with a new aspect ratio: wide (21:9) and ultrawide (32:9) - the equivalent of two 5K monitors side by side - Route audio from your Mac to Apple Vision Pro
Apple TV - Watch up to five MLS and MLB games at once with Multiview - Watch live sporting events together with SharePlay
Safari - Tap to view spatial photos and videos embedded on web pages

This update genuinely feels like a true 1.0 for the Vision Pro. All areas of the UI feel snappier and the Mac virtual display is night and day. Not only are the wide and ultra wide options actually very useful but the general display sharpness has really improved. I'm typing this right now using virtual display after using my Vision Pro for over a couple hours now for work... Normally I never touched virtual display for anymore more than a few minutes at a time and certainly never for any serious work.

Very good summary - 2.2 is the level of refinement we had been waiting for but I don’t complain. Given the choice to have earlier access or more refinement I’d have chosen earlier access.
Virtual display is nothing short but amazing. First time ever having not to worry about large pivot table traveling or multiple APPs on the AVP with macOS.
For me a huge benefit. New immersive content coming too.
