Here’s what to expect from visionOS 27
Mark Gurman writes to Bloomberg:
This year’s visionOS 27 update will be light on new features compared to visionOS 26 and will instead focus on performance, bug fixes, and parity with other ’27’ operating systems. That means adding the new AI editing tools, Siri features, and other improvements that will be part of iOS 27, iPadOS 27, and macOS 27.
So, to summarize, Vision Pro owners can expect the following in visionOS 27:
- The new Siri
- Additional system-wide AI improvements
- Other new features that match what iOS 27 and above offer
- Bug fixes and performance improvements
So far, Apple has developed visionOS at a pretty impressive pace. And it looks like that might slow some people down this year.
However, I would argue that the new Siri could have a particularly big impact on the overall Vision Pro experience.
Shortly after purchasing my Vision Pro, I discovered how important voice is as an input method.
Unlike my iPhone, iPad, and Mac, where I prefer to get things done via touch, or via a keyboard and trackpad, in visionOS I try to use voice a lot. And today’s Siri makes that a challenge.
If Apple is able to deliver the Siri we’re all hoping for, I could see VisionOS benefiting significantly. And I would expect that, with Mike Rockwell now at the helm of Siri’s redesign, its previous main focus, the Vision Pro, won’t be overlooked.
What do you think of the plans announced by Apple for visionOS 27? Let us know in the comments.
