Vision Pro

Calling all nerds:

Is there a non-Safari browser that anyone can recommend?

I have to access Confluence and JIRA. Confluence tables are basically un-editable in Safari on visionOS for some reason. Arrow keys don't work, and the cells are too small to reliably use look-and-pinch.

@jimmylittle the only other one I’ve heard of is Lens. Will ask my coworker tomorrow and come back if he has any recommendations.

Working on my today as a "monitor" for my work laptop for the first time in a while to see if it will work on an upcoming trip. Thoughts:

  • why doesn't the sound mirror to the VP speakers? It's not even an AirPlay target, it should be.
  • Occlusion should always show my keyboard, even when fully immersed.
  • Working in an environment is kinda nice.
  • Universal Clipboard is great to move data between native VP apps and Mac apps.
  • Universal Control rocks.
  • VP needs ⌘-Tab

@jimmylittle wish I felt the same. After multiple times trying I’d rather use my 13” retina display for a day of work than have a larger, lower quality display that kinda strains my eyes after an hour. Just doesn’t seem worth the bulk of carrying around the Apple Vision Pro in addition to a laptop for things I could easily do on my laptop. But guess that’s just me. Curious how you feel after more days of it.

Also +1 to Cmd tab. Or really any kind of multitasking.

@kaplag I'm gonna carry the VP anyway. The question for me was whether I needed to also carry my 16" portable USB-C monitor. The answer is no, I don't need to anymore.

So now it's laptop, VP, and iPad mini.

Took the to the Apple Store and finally got to use my case. I adore this case. It’s so much smaller than the Apple one. I should have taken a photo next to one.

What's 's focal distance, for optical insert , for people regularly using 3 separate glasses: 1.driving, 2.computer-distance, 3. ?

Which one is it?
@atpfm @daringfireball

Returning incorrect/too strong Zeiss-provided inserts. Can't find Vision Pro focal distance information anywhere in official documentation.

@siracusa thanks!

Followup question, is the source reliable?

The eye doctor is figuring out what prescription to send Zeiss for a 2nd optical inserts order. For the 1st pair,Zeiss refused "computer distance",accepted "multifocal" prescription,sent me single-focal lenses too strong in Vision Pro:strong enough to use as driving glasses.

(...standard myopia+presbyopia, age>50 eyes aren't as accommodating in changing focus... is Vision Pro meant for young eyes only, despite what Apple/Zeiss say?)

@mitjahmeljak Unknown reliability. But keep in mind that the prescription you give Apple may be adjusted by some amount by Apple itself, for all we know. For example, maybe Apple wants your maximum distance prescription which it then adjusts down to whatever the Vision Pro’s focal length is. Or not? Hard to know anything other than whatever Apple recommends.
