Apple has just published thevisionOS version 1.2. This is now available to all Apple Vision Pro users. Several new features are in the game, but these are different from the features announced at the Worldwide Developer Conference. Indeed, during the event, the publisher lifted the veil on visionOS 2, which would arrive in final version around September.
The bad news for us is that not all of Apple Intelligence's AI features are available on the mixed reality headset. Besides, even Apple Watches are not entitled to it. The same goes for Apple TVs.
What's new in visionOS 1.2?
The new features of this version are particularly numerous, and have beenlisted in detailby our colleagues fromMacRumors, but in the language of Shakespeare. For you, we have chosen this time to only retain the three most important, in our opinion.
First of all, you should know that visionOS 1.2 now supportsvalidation of iMessage contact keys. This one “provides an additional level of security that helps detect sophisticated threats against iMessage servers“, according to Apple. The developer adds, moreover, that the option assures you “that you only exchange messages with the people you want to do so with“. Below, find an overview of this asset already available on iOS:

Among the other new features of visionOS 1.2, we also findImprovements for Personas. Apple explains that it has notably retouched the representations of the neck and mouth. As a reminder, Personas represent you during calls in augmented reality.
Finally, know that the bug which prevented theUniversal controlto work correctly with Macs has now been fixed.
The Vision Pro is arriving very soon in France!
For the moment, the Apple Vision Pro is not available in France. He has been waiting there for several weeks, after arriving in the United States on February 2. But we now know that the virtual reality headset can finally be purchased in France,from July 12next.It will cost no less than 3,999 euros for the basic version, supplied with 256 gigabytes of internal storage. With our previous estimate of 4,249 euros, we were not so close after all.
