YouTube Launches on Apple Vision Pro

Scripted as well

Nice. Now I finally want an m5 one. Will probably see if they release a newer one in a few years if not I’ll pick up a used m5

 

[kiensoy]

But I’ve been told here to avoid Google like the plague. I’m not going to download it because they spy on me or something.

Did hell freeze over?!

I still think headsets that simulate the massive theater presentations ARE the future of viewing. Especially with everyone living in parents basements, or small apt living with 5 room-mates and your bedroom is a closet. They just need to be at the quality level where they are perceptively indistinguishable from the real deal. They also need to cost next to nothing. Be a commodity item. I absolutely they will be one day as cheap as any 55" TV today.

On your first point, the Vision Pro is already there. It is one of the best movie viewing experiences you can get. And if you really like the cinema experience, an app like Infuse puts you a high quality cinema environment.

Cost is the issue and that AVP is isolating in this use cases.

Yessss I love my Vision Pro and been waiting on this

what if any issues were there with using Safari to view YouTube?

 

[antonrg]

I guess the AI deal pushed Google to finally move ahead with this. I wonder also if Vision Pro will show up as separate in my YT Studio analytics. So far it's just by device, phone, TV, computer, tablet.

 

[Rychiar]

now just get me a paramount app that actually remembers where ya left off

 

[bluecoast]

This proves that Vision Pro is a success.

No matter which direction I turn, there are ads for medications I don't need. Stop telling me about sudden limb loss and redness between my anus and genitals!

If you block tags.tiqcdn.com, via pi-hole, or adblocker or whatever, it won't save your watch location.

Took me forever to figure it out on my home network.

Side effects include dry mouth, nausea, explosive diarrhea, and sudden death…. Ask your doctor if Jack Daniels is right for you.

Couldn’t watch VR videos in VR. Would either show as a 2D video, or side by side 2D instead of composited as a 3D video.

 

[alexgowers]

Do ad blockers works with it or is it like all ios youtube apps, riddled with endless ads?

 

[Canubis]

Finally! This is great news.

 

[WilliApple]

Mac app when?

never lol
But maybe one day they will Mac Catalyst their UIKit iPadOS app... They can easily do it.

 

[MacMan988]

This is the killer app we have been waiting for

 

[DBZmusicboy01]

About time? I guess? Better late than never? I still feel like $3,500 to watch YouTube is crazy.

In reality I think it’s $3,500 to watch something else if I am being honest….

I pay for premium I don't get ads. See how that works, a social contract, watch ads or pay to get content

Now we know why Google was so aggressive and killed Christian Selig's (developer of Apollo, a defunct Reddit app for iOS) Juno app (Youtube app for Apple Vision Pro) - https://christianselig.com/2024/02/introducing-juno/

As a Vision Pro owner, I feel like the experience is already almost there. There are some fantastic virtual cinemas hidden in several video apps, it's a wow effect every time I start watching a movie. However, the comfort is what is still lacking.

Yeah this is a good idea !

 

[wonderings]

I wonder how different VR apps are for Apple than Meta. Youtube has a native VR app and has for a while. Is it so different that they could not port it over?

 

[travoose]

Up next…YouTubeTV app!

 

[lovehateapple]

This is good news. Now we just need a Netflix app...
