The Apple Vision Pro runs on [[visionOS]], Apple's operating system specifically designed for spatial computing. visionOS is built on the foundation of other Apple operating systems but optimized for three-dimensional interaction in space. It features a familiar app-based interface with iOS-like icons floating in the user's environment.
