YouTube and Spotify have no plans to sell apps on the Vision Pro headset, a new report claimed. YouTube stated that it would neither produce a YouTube Vision Pro app nor allow the YouTube iPad app to work on the device.
YouTube and Spotify Apps Will Not Be Available on Vision Pro
Spotify does not plan to make its iPad app available through the Vision Pro App Store and is not currently developing an app, as per Bloomberg. YouTube and Spotify will be accessible via Safari, similar to Netflix.
Netflix announced earlier this week that customers can stream content via the Vision Pro web browser and that no separate app will be produced. Given Apple's strained relationship with Spotify, it's hardly surprising that Spotify has no plans to create an Apple Vision Pro app.
Many companies may also be waiting and seeing with the Vision Pro, given the equipment is pricey and Apple is unlikely to sell many copies. The Vision Pro headset may not be as popular as the iPhone or iPad, leading to reluctance to spend resources in it.
While iPad apps can operate on Vision Pro with no effort, YouTube and Netflix customers may be frustrated with the subpar experience compared to entertainment apps created expressly for Vision Pro, such as Disney+.
This could cause complications for the firms. A web-based experience has fewer expectations, making it the safest bet for streaming services that aren't yet ready to roll out complete Vision Pro experiences.
If the Vision Pro headset is successful and apps like Disney+ and Max are popular, companies that have yet to develop apps may do so in the future.
Vision Pro App Store Launch: Major Apps Absent Amid Uncertainty Over visionOS Compatibility
The Vision Pro App Store was released this week, and visionOS compatibility is noted on App Store sites, indicating which apps will be available on the headset and which will not, according to MacRumors. According to a survey by MacStories, popular apps such as Instagram, Facebook, WhatsApp, Snapchat, Amazon, Google, and Gmail have yet to appear on the App Store.
Developers can choose not to have their apps visible on Vision Pro, even if iPad apps are already available by default. It is unclear if the major apps listed above are completely opting out of the Vision Pro. However, they have disabled iPad app access and have not yet released specialized Vision Pro apps.
Pre-orders for the Vision Pro start tomorrow at 5:00 a.m. Pacific Time, with a launch slated for Friday, February 2.
