The Apple Vision Pro is officially two weeks old, and TikTok was conspicuously absent on launch day, but now our long national nightmare has come to an end. The Vision Pro has a native TikTok app.
This isn’t just the iPad app with a new coat of paint. There are some neat features here that take advantage of headset. The navigation bar and like button are moved entirely off-screen, giving users an uninterrupted view of video content.
This extends to comment sections and creator profiles, as they both now appear as expansions alongside the feed, which TikTok says provides “a more immersive content viewing experience.” To that end, TikTok integrates with the headset’s immersive environments, so people can watch short-form videos on the moon or surrounded by the lush flora of Yosemite.
TikTok also works with the Vision Pro’s Shared Space feature, allowing the app to exist somewhere in your peripheral as you work on other stuff. The location of the app will remain static, so it’ll be in the same place every time you put on the headset (provided you are in the same room.)
You may notice that these features are primarily intended for content consumers, and not creators. Engadget reached out to TikTok to ask about creator-specific features and we’ll update this post when we hear back.
The app’s available for download right now, though it likely won’t be accessible for TikTok’s core userbase of The Apple Vision Pro costs $3,500. That’s like an entire childhood of allowances.
