Issue: Closing Bounded Volume Never Re-Opens
Greetings. I am having this issue with a Unity Polyspatial VisionOS app. We have our main Bounded Volume for our app. We have other Native UI windows that appear when we interact with objects in our Bounded Volume. If a user closes our main Bounded Volume...sometimes it quits the app. Sometimes it doesn't. If we go back to the home screen and reopen the app, our main Bounded Volume doesn't always appear, and just the Native UI windows we left open are visible. But, we can sometimes still hear sounds that are playing in our Bounded Volume. What solutions are there to make sure our Bounded Volume always appears when the app is open?

Material showing only half?
Hi, I'm currently implementing 180° / 360° property for immersive video in my app. I was able to implement 360° easily by just giving VideoMaterial to flipped sphere. However, I'm bit stuck at 180°. I want to implement by setting VideoMaterial to hemisphere mesh. But since RealityKit doesn't provide default function such like MeshResource.generateHemisphere yet, I just want to apply VideoMaterial half front visible, and half back transparent. I thought this would make my sphere looks like hemisphere. But I can't find my way to implement this method.. I would appreciate any advice / idea / information that might help.

How to renew visionOS Enterprise API entitlement / license?
Hi everyone, I’m currently using the visionOS Enterprise APIs, and I noticed in the official documentation that: However, I couldn’t find any clear instructions on how to actually renew the license. What is the correct process to renew a visionOS Enterprise API license? Do I need to submit a new entitlement request again to renew? Is there any official step-by-step guide or documentation for renewal? Any advice or shared experience would be greatly appreciated 🙏 Thank you!

Header Blur Effect on visionOS SwiftUI
Hi, I'm looking to build something similar to the header blur in the App Store and Apple TV app settings. Does anyone know the best way to achieve this so that when there is nothing behind the header it looks the same as the rest of the view background but when content goes underneath it has a blur effect. I've seen .scrollEdgeEffect on IOS26 is there something similar for visionOS? Thanks!

RoomCaptureView runs on the latest system with a serious bug causing errors
I am using RoomCaptureView for house scanning and modeling On the latest iOS 26, the following issues were encountered The program runs well on iOS 26 and below, but on iOS 26 and above, the probability of scene localization failure becomes abnormally high, and accurate indoor localization cannot be obtained. Additionally, the probability of using RoomBuilder to merge models is also high After compiling the program using xcode 26 or above, a necessary bug appeared when running it on iOS 26, RoomCaptureView is completely unable to run The error message is {RoomCaptureSession. Capture Error's' Internal error '} And the camera interface of RoomCaptureView has turned into a splash screen Another Debug error occurred:{ -[MTLDebugRenderCommandEncoder validateCommonDrawErrors:]:5970: failed assertion `Draw Errors Validation Fragment Function(realitykit::fsSurfaceShadow): incorrect type of texture (MTLTextureType2D) bound at Texture binding at index 14 (expect MTLTextureType1D) for tonemapLUT[0]. } When using programs compiled under xcode 26 and running on iOS 26, this issue will not occur

Safari-like toolbar in visionOS
I like the toolbar visionOS's Safari uses for back & forward page, share, etc. It floats above the window. My attempt to do this with ornaments isn't as satisfying as they partially cover the window. My attempts with toolbar haven't produced visible results. Is this Safari-style toolbar for visionOS exposed by Apple in the API's? If so, could someone point me to documentation or sample code? Thanks!

window loses resize feature on reopening
I have this problem on VisionOS. When I dismiss and reopen a window from a ImagePresentationComponent, the window misses the resize ui elements when I look at the window corners. The rest of the window ui elements (drag, close...) are there. Resizing was possible before the window was dismissed. The code is something like this: WindowGroup(id: "image-display-window",..... } .windowResizability(.automatic) .windowStyle(.plain) I call dismissWindow() from the window view and it is dismissed correctly. Then I call openWindow(id: "image-display-window", value: data) from another view to reopen it. It reopens but it missing the possibility to resize. Anyone knows how to fix this? Thanks.

New Spatial Rendering App on macOS doesn't display on visionOS device
I created a new Spatial Rendering App from the template in Xcode 26.0.1. When I run the app, click 'Show Immersive Space' and select my Vision Pro from the pop-up dialog, the content in the dialog flickers (which seems to indicate something crashed) and nothing appears on my Vision Pro. I'm running the released macOS 26.0 (25A354) and visionOS 26.0 (23M336). Filed as FB20397093.

Logitech Muse: OS-level support?
I've been experimenting with the Muse pen and understand that it can be accessed by my app through a SpatialTrackingSession, but is there any current or planned support for devices like this as for general UI input like game controllers are? For example, using the button as a tap analogue for SwiftUI views.

Persistent Entity Position
I want to let users place 2D/3D “artworks” on detected walls and have them reappear in exactly the same real‑world spot after quitting and relaunching the app (like widgets do, but for my own entities).Environment: Xcode 26, visionOS 2.0, RealityKit + ARKitSession/WorldTrackingProvider Entities are parented to a holder that’s aligned to a wall via plane/mesh raycasts. What I’ve tried: Create a WorldAnchor at placement, save UUID + full 4×4 transform On next launch, re-create the WorldAnchor (or set the saved transform) and attach the entity Gate restore on relocalization/mesh updates and disable all raycast/search after restore Issue: After relaunch, placement still resolves relative to current device pose, not the same wall position. Questions: Is there a public API in visionOS 2.0 to persist app‑managed world anchors across sessions (room‑fixed), e.g., AnchorStore or equivalent? If not, what’s the recommended pattern to reliably restore wall‑anchored content? Are persistence features mentioned for widgets/windows available to third‑party RealityKit entities?

Is it possible to raycast with PSVR2 controllers when developing in Unity for the Apple Vision Pro?
Hi all, I am currently developing a game in Unity for VisionOS and I'd prefer to use the PSVR2 controllers as a source of the raycast for menu selection instead of the default VisionOS gaze for my specific use case. Is there a way to access the IMU of PSVR2 controllers to do this instead of just using eyegaze + controller click for selection? Is there a specific configuration for GCController from within Unity maybe? Thank you!

Can't establish spatial connection after visionOS update
After updating to visionOS 26.2 Beta 2 (and Beta 3), I'm unable to establish a spatial connection to Vision Pro. This was working fine before the update. To test, I've created a fresh spatialApp project from the Xcode template with zero modifications, but I'm hitting the same issue - the Vision Pro is discovered but won't connect. Am I forgetting to update the config somewhere? Any ideas what might be causing this and how to fix it? Thanks!

Volumetric window not sharing in SharePlay session for VisionOS
I've been struggling with this for far too long so I've decided to finally come here and see if anyone can point me to the documentation that I'm missing. I'm sure it's something so simple but I just can't figure it out. I can SharePlay our test app with my brother (device to device) but when I open a volumetric window, it says "not shared" under it. I assume this will likely fix the video sharing problem we have as well. Everything else works so smooth but SharePlay has just been such a struggle for me. It's the last piece to the puzzle before we can put it on the App Store.

VisionOS 2 - Passthrough in screen capture
I'm trying to develop an app that broadcasts what the user sees (priorly we were using main camera access) but now we'd like to investigate and try with this option. I have set up the BroadcastExtension, I've added the picker, I click on my button, I can see my broadcast extension in the options list in the control center, once I click start, it stops after 1 second more or less. I'm not able to get anything in the console from my Sample Handler (prints or logs or anything). I can see however in the console.app some misleading information (one after the other): [INFO] -[RPRecordingManager getSystemBroadcastExtensionInfo:]_block_invoke:1333 Extension has passthrough license [INFO] -[RPRecordingManager getSystemBroadcastExtensionInfo:]_block_invoke:1336 Extension does not have passthrough license We have the entreprise license, the capability and I did add the capability on the extension target as well.

How to get the transform of the joint in a skeleton when it is Animating
I have an entity that was created using Mixamo, and it has an animation. after the animation completes the mesh of the robot is not where the entity is positioned. I want to do something like when the animation finishes, I set the root entity's transform to the mesh's transform. There are no transformations applied to any of the children of this root of the model, which means that the transformations are applied to the skeleton due the the playing of animations. Is there a way where I can apply the final position of the root of the skeleton to the root entity to make sure to position the entity where the animation has ended just before the next animation plays?
