Apple has rolled out the visionOS 2.3 update for its Vision Pro headset, but users hoping for new features might be disappointed. The latest update primarily addresses bug fixes and system optimizations, as Apple continues to refine its spatial computing platform. The update comes as Apple Intelligence, the company’s AI-driven initiative, remains unavailable on the Vision Pro.
What’s in the Update?
Unlike previous updates that introduced notable enhancements, visionOS 2.3 is a maintenance release. Apple has focused on stability improvements, ensuring smoother performance and reliability for existing features. No new immersive video or native apps were included in this release.
Apple’s roadmap suggests that these point-three updates typically lay the groundwork for bigger features, such as Apple Intelligence, which is expected to arrive later. However, the Vision Pro currently lacks AI functionality, as Apple has yet to optimize it for the device.
When Will Apple Intelligence Arrive?
Apple has confirmed that its AI-powered features will require devices equipped with M-series chips or the A17 Pro processor. Despite the Vision Pro running on an M2 chip, Apple Intelligence was not ready at launch. Industry insiders speculate that these capabilities might be introduced in visionOS 3.0, expected later this year.
For now, Apple is preparing to launch visionOS 2.4, which could bring a new app intent system for AI-compatible devices. However, Vision Pro users may have to wait longer for AI integration.
How to Update?
Although visionOS 2.3 lacks significant upgrades, Apple advises users to install the update for optimal performance. The update can be applied through Settings > General > Software Update, or users can wait for automatic installation.
Apple continues to refine its spatial computing platform, and while AI enhancements are on the horizon, this update focuses solely on system stability.
