Apple has finally released the YouTube app for the Apple Vision Pro so you can immersive yourself with your favourite videos and content creators on the popular platform.
A new standalone YouTube can now be downloaded on the Apple Vision Pro and allows users to watch standard videos, 180-degree and 360-degree videos along with YouTube Shorts.
And the great news for owners of the Apple Vision Pro with M5 released in October last year – they can watch YouTube videos in 8K.
Before the launch of the YouTube app for Vision Pro, the only way to watch YouTube was through the Safari browser – an experience that was well beneath the Vision Pro’s capabilities.
There was unofficial YouTube called Juno that was launched on the Vision Pro but Apple removed it from the App Store in October 2024.
It has taken more than two years since Apple Vision Pro launched for the dedicated YouTube app to be released.
YouTube, owned by Google, had no intention at the time of the Apple Vision Pro launch two years ago but it has obviously had a change of heart once the high quality Apple headset hit the market.
Two years later – here we are.
One other app conspicuously absent on the Vision Pro is the most popular streaming app Netflix. The ball is in its court.
