"Apple's Vision Pro Launches Without YouTube and Spotify Apps"

Apple's Vision Pro headset won't have access to YouTube, Spotify, and potentially Instagram and Facebook apps at launch, with users having to access them from a browser. While popular entertainment apps like Netflix won't have dedicated apps for the device, Disney+ will offer special immersive environments for its shows. The absence of these apps may be due to concerns about resource allocation and potential compatibility issues, as developers have to opt out of making their iPhone and iPad apps available on the Vision Pro.

"App Compatibility Woes: YouTube, Spotify, and Netflix Snub Apple Vision Pro"

YouTube and Spotify have decided not to launch new apps for Apple's upcoming mixed-reality headset, the Vision Pro, joining Netflix in steering clear of the device. Both companies are not planning to enable their iPad apps to run on the device at launch, but will likely work from a web browser. This means that the most popular streaming apps won’t be available when the headset launches on Feb. 2. Apple has largely marketed the device as a platform for video, games, and other entertainment, and it will include access to Apple’s apps for music and podcasts, which compete with Spotify’s offerings.

"Netflix's Lack of Support for Apple Vision Pro Leaves Users Stranded"

Netflix has confirmed that it will not be making a native app for the Apple Vision Pro headset, nor will it allow users to run the iPad version of its app on the device. While most other major streaming services are on board, including Disney+, HBO Max, and Amazon Prime Video, Netflix's absence may not have a significant impact initially, as Apple is expected to sell a limited number of Vision Pro units in the first year.
