- YouTube was one of the high-profile holdouts that initially declined to create a dedicated app for the Apple Vision Pro.
- It appears YouTube has changed its mind as a spokesperson claims a Vision Pro YouTube app is on its roadmap.
- Until the app arrives, YouTube is optimizing the website for Safari on the Vision Pro as a stopgap.
A few weeks ago, Netflix, YouTube, and Spotify made headlines after declining to make dedicated apps for the Apple Vision Pro. But it appears something may have happened between then and now, as YouTube says a dedicated app is coming.
In an email sent to The Verge, YouTube spokesperson Jessica Gibby spoke about the company’s plans with Apple’s new headset. “We’re excited to see Vision Pro launch and we’re supporting it by ensuring YouTube users have a great experience in Safari,” Gibby told the outlet. “We do not have any specific plans to share at this time, but can confirm that a Vision Pro app is on our roadmap.”
