This week's question comes from
Ravi:
“Do you believe developing apps for Apple Vision Pro will have the most significant impact on Swift development in the next year?”
It’s a timely question, and I’m sure many of you wonder: should I add support for visionOS? Should I build an app for Apple’s Vision Pro?
In my honest opinion, I believe it’s too early for visionOS to become the highest priority this or next year. It’s a new platform that will definitely grow. However, the fact is that the adoption of platforms like iOS and macOS is much higher and, with that, the return on investment.
The crucial part here is defining “significant impact.” As the platform is new, you’ll have the opportunity to be more visible with your app. There’s simply less competition.
Personally, I don’t have much spare time to spend on side projects, and I have to pick my battles. For me, that means focusing on platforms that already have large audiences.
