Microsoft’s Vision Pro, the much-anticipated mixed-reality headset, is set to launch in just a few days, sparking speculation about its potential success. One key factor in its success will be the level of interest from developers in creating custom apps for the device. While some major platforms have held back, Microsoft’s announcement that its productivity-focused 365 apps, along with its AI companion Copilot, will be available in the Vision Pro App Store is a big boost.
These apps have been specifically designed to take advantage of the features offered by the Vision Pro headset, such as PowerPoint’s custom Immersive Environment and Excel’s utilization of the “infinite canvas.” Additionally, Word’s Immersive Environments and focus mode, as well as the ability to make video calls in Teams and access AI-powered Copilot services, showcase the unique capabilities of the Vision Pro headset. Microsoft’s commitment to providing great Microsoft 365 experiences on various platforms and devices, including the Vision Pro, is evident in their collaboration with Apple to bring these experiences to life.
