The VR headset offers incredible tech making it one of the best VR devices available, but its $3,500 price tag makes it difficult for many to justify buying one. Apple Intelligence on Vision Pro will bring tools that users with an iPhone 15, iPhone 16, the upcoming iPhone SE 4, and Apple hardware that uses the company's M1 chips or better can already make use of. Writing Tools will let Vision Pro users proofread, rewrite, and summarize text; Image Playground generates images; and Genmojis, which can be created just by speaking a description to Apple Intelligence. There's also Smart Reply so Vision Pro users can respond easily to texts and emails, as well as Memory Movie, which can create videos with storylines based on descriptions users type in and will consist of their own photos and clips using a similar theme. A new app coming to Vision Pro with the VisionOS 2.4 update is Spatial Gallery. The app lets users look at spatial photos, videos, and panoramas curated by Apple. This includes photographs from Jonpaul Douglass and Samba Diop, Cirque du Soleil experiences, and behind-the-scenes moments from Apple shows such as Severance.

Will these new features be enough for the Vision Pro? The inclusion of Apple Intelligence with the Vision Pro is going to be a big help in selling the expensive VR headset. Apple struggled to sell the Vision Pro when it launched more than a year ago as the $3,500 price tag was a hard pill to swallow. The company understands the issue as it already has another Vision Pro headset in the works. There is still a growing interest in VR with the market estimated to grow by $133 billion in the next four years, according to Technavio. Gaming is still the driver for VR, but Apple's Vision Pro headset was intended for professional users. With the incorporation of Apple Intelligence that could drive interest up as AI adoption continues to grow. Apple Intelligence launched last year after the release of the iPhone 16, but it's still not fully "released." The AI is still limited, and Apple intends to have a full launch later this year. There was a plan to integrate the AI features into Siri in April, however, that launch window has reportedly been pushed back due to engineering challenges and bugs. The overhaul could be coming in May, or it might be unveiled at this year's Worldwide Developers Conference, which typically takes place in June.
