Apple Vision Pro can be used in Spanish with visionOS 2.2 and it’s exciting (even if it doesn’t mean what you think)

Important news in the latest developer beta released yesterday: for the first time since Apple Vision Pro went on sale, You can now choose Spanish as your language in visionOS 2.2. Not only that, but also the co-official state languages, such as Catalan, Galician and Basque.

This new version of Apple’s space computing operating system is not yet available to the public, but provides a preview of what is coming in an upcoming public release in the coming months. The other big new feature of this version is using the ultra wide screen if we use Apple Vision Pro with a Mac with Apple Silicon.

Does this mean that Apple Vision Pro will soon be launched in USA?

Unfortunately, this This does not indicate that it will be launched in our country in the short term. Originally visionOS 1.1 (launching the base operating system) only contained the English language when sales began in the United States. Later, as international expansion continued, the languages ​​of the countries where they were also on sale were added – as happened with France, the United Kingdom and Germany, for example.

However, on this occasion, Apple added many more languages ​​to visionOS: not only those of the Spanish State, but also those of many other countries. It does not seem feasible that they will launch the device in all these countries in the short term, so this would be a move so that Apple Vision Pro can be used by current buyers, in more languages. Although you should never lose hope, of course (I hope I’m wrong!).

Language availability in Apple Vision Pro is important not only for texts: also for dictionaries, applications, video subtitles and much more. But even though we can use Apple Vision Pro in our language, It is not yet possible to use the Spanish Apple account on the device – one of the main disadvantages of first-time buyers who use it outside the countries of sale. This means that to download apps from the App Store on visionOS, we need an Apple account from a country where they are sold.

“And yet it moves”

In recent months, there has been speculation about Apple’s position with the Apple Vision Pro, driven by manufacturing units shrinking after expected initial demand had been met. For some, a sign that those in Cupertino are not clear on their direction; For others, it’s about the new devices in the range that could be on the way.

Meanwhile, early buyers benefit nine months discovering what is only a prelude to what spatial computing can offer: not only to view the content (perhaps the best device on the market for this), with also new possibilities and uses: the ultra-panoramic floating monitor is proof of this. In my case, I continue to use them several hours a day (all my latest analyses, like the one on iPhone 16 Pro oh come on AirPods 4 I wrote them from Apple Vision Pro). This is probably the Apple device I’m most excited about right now.

Although it is obvious that this is an expensive and very specialized device, the believers we are not alone in thinking that what Apple Vision Pro offers is the future: despite the rumors, like Galileo when he uttered the famous phrase “Eppur si muove” (“and yet it moves”), Apple continues to bet on Apple Vision Pro, significantly highlighting new training about the latest visionOS features for developers. Many of them in person – in Cupertino and some in Europe – which will take place this month, according to the latest email sent by the Apple developer team (randomly) yesterday again.

Are all these movements a first step so that at least, Local visionOS App Stores are open with the aim of allowing developers to prepare applications for their markets? This would undoubtedly be a good idea that would further amplify uses, and would greatly prepare the ground for what Apple has in mind for 2025. Which, I am convinced, is no small feat.
