Did you know you can add an ornament to an ornament in a window?

Did you know we can create custom ornament anchors? We can provide a UnitPoint with X and Y values to position an ornament anywhere around (or even over) a visionOS window.

The new mvplayer.app is live 🎬
A short film, a press kit, and one sunset played on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Vision Pro.
Coming October 23: MVPlayer 3.2, made for iPhone Duo. Fold it like a laptop and your video glows on the controls below.

Ornaments allow us to decorate our windows with information and controls. We can anchor them around a window, and adjust their alignment to suite the content.

This is how I ended my presentation at OhioXR. I focused on visionOS as a computing platform. It was a rapid-fire showcase of features, capabilities, and real-world use cases. My objective was to show people a glimpse of what's possible on this platform, to spark some ideas.

Finishing touches before officially releasing USD Stage on the App Store! Of course with proper shareplay support 😎

🎃 Halloween is here in Blockworks on Apple Vision Pro!
I’ve added a free Halloween pack with spooky builds, new blocks and colors, and a haunted theme plus new features, improvements, and bug fixes! Available through November 3.

Apple ships a lot for developers, and it's easy to lose track.
So I made Cupertino Tech to see it all in one place: cool icons, platforms, code samples, WWDC sessions and a timeline back to 2001.
Spot something missing? Tell me and I'll add it.

My M3 Max MacBook Pro briefly entered the Magenta Matrix and now I'm terrified that the GPUs are borked

Added a globe to Cassette on Vision Pro that plants a pin on the map where the video was shot.
I'm working hard on my talk to showcase the features and capabilities visionOS. I get so focused on my projects. Taking a step back to survey everything really makes me realize just how incredible this platform is.
OhioXR 2026 is Ohio's first cross-industry XR conference. I'll be doing a session on visionOS development for anyone who is interested in learning about the Apple Vision Pro ecosystem. #OhioXR2026

I created the most photorealistic scene generation pipeline available for native RealityKit Apple Vision Pro apps. I could keep it to myself, but I’m giving it away for free.
RealityHD v5.0 is now available, with optimizations to be more token-efficient while generating ultra-realistic scenes. It also includes our latest medical related props and scenes, as seen in this video.
I hope this enables the next generation of visionOS developers to build realistic simulations.

I brought AI generation to Blockworks on Apple Vision Pro. You can just say what you want to build and it’ll spawn in front of you. A quick demo of what that looks like.
I don't think I've ever gotten more excited reading an acronym than ULID (Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifier) 🥵
