Are you an iPad user? It looks like the device will be fully compatible with Apple Reality Pro.
There is a strong rumor that the Apple Reality Pro will be presented at WWDC 23, although there is still no particular information about its launch. But, despite the fact that the information about its arrival on the shelves is not very precise, new information is starting to emerge on the operation of these glasses and the applications that they can run.
Although it is believed that these will be devices that are fully compatible with the iPhoneThere are reports circulating that the Apple Reality Pro will also run iPad apps, making it a better use for users.
Apple Reality Pro and iPad: compatible apps
It was Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman who revealed new information about Apple’s flagship device: Apple Reality Pro. The capabilities of these new glasses are the AR version of Apple’s best-known applications on iPhone: Mail, Safari and Messages, not to mention the new downloadable options.
And the iPad then? We have a glimpse that Gurman himself gave in his column mentioning the following:
Much of the effort is adapting iPad apps for the new headsets, which combine virtual and augmented reality. Users will be able to access millions of existing apps from third-party developers through the new 3D interface. Many iPad apps from the App Store will be able to run on the headphones, either automatically or with slight modifications.
Apple Reality Pro will also work great with iPad
After this overview, the source indicates what could be the complete list of applications which could be compatible with iPad:
- Books
- Calendar
- contacts
- FaceTime
- Files
- Fitness+
- foyer
- To post
- Maps
- posts
- Ratings
- Pictures
- Calendar
- TV
- Climate
In addition to that, Bloomberg mentions that those in Cupertino are planning AR versions for their office software and other apps like iMovie or GarageBand.
Immersive video will also be extended to the TV app, where the company plans to allow users to watch videos in different virtual environments, such as a desert or the sky,” says Gurman. The AR version of FaceTime would have similar functionality to FaceTime on iPad, while Fitness+ will feature VR instructors.
Moreover, the latest reports indicate that in addition to his presentation at WWDC, the price of the glasses could be between 3,000 dollars, so it will be a high-end device and perhaps not focused on normal users. But, Gurman mentioned that Apple is taking the next step:
The iPhone and iPad have had strong support from third-party developers. Apple’s inaugural headset is believed to be an accessory priced over $3,000, as the first version is apparently aimed at software developers. Apple is already working on a successor to the first headset and two more affordable versions that should appeal to regular users.
Recall that Apple has announced the date of WWDC23, which will be held from June 5 to 9, so there is less to confirm these rumors.
