Vision Teleport – Apple Vision Pro

Vision Teleport for Apple Vision Pro allows you to work with a virtually unlimited number of displays from your Mac computer in spatial workspace.

With Vision Virtual Displays, a free macOS app, you even can create and setup new virtual displays, connected to your Mac. All real connected displays will be available additionally.

Universal AudioUnits (AUv3)

I started iOS development with a number of so-called audio units. These are technically spoken app extensions for realtime audio processing, which are shareable across the eco systems. In the meantime most of these audio units are super-universal and available on nearly all Apple platforms, iOS, iPadOS, visionOS and macOS.

The audio unit specific website can be found here.

Note: On visionOS, audio units are (currently?) not supported for native apps. But such app extensions are available in iOS / iPadOS compatibility mode.

Notice

From now, we will ship macOS apps (mainly the server apps for usage with the Vision Pro apps) directly to the user via direct downloads. We (kind of) finished active cooperation with the Apple AppStore Review for the Mac side.

The main reason is, that the user experience will mostly become drastically reduced by the app review process and also the amount of usability and functionality of apps, if gone thru this awful process. Furthermore, the Apple Mac AppStore is also obviously not able to guarantee a synced delivery of client / server apps (which is a strict requirement) and proceed in an appropriate time span.

For instance: If we delivered the visionOS app to the AppStore (and users want updates always as fast as possible) the server apps usually will hang in macOS app store processing for days and most likely get multiple rejections for various unacceptable reasons. This is similar to a boycott-alike behaviour, which is just awful. For users and for developers.
