Apple's Vision Pro augmented reality headset will have an App Store full of apps at launch.

When the company announced the Vision Pro in June, it said that the headset will come with a brand-new App Store with specialized apps built for the Vision Pro's operating system, visionOS. The company also said this App Store will hold "compatible" iPad and iPhone apps.

In an update on its website for developers, published Tuesday, Apple shared some more details on how this will work in practice.

According to Apple, Vision Pro's App Store will launch with "hundreds of thousands of iPad and iPhone apps." The company also said that "most" iPad and iPhone apps run on visionOS.

As for timing, Apple says that a developer beta release of visionOS will include the new App Store "starting this fall." The developers who have the Vision Pro will have their iPhone and iPad apps published automatically on the Vision Pro's App Store. And for most of them, this will require little to no additional work.

• Apple's Vision Pro retail plan will be a velvet-rope experience
• Apple's Vision Pro might be tricky to get in 2024
• What to expect as the Apple Watch Series 9 announcement looms
• Apple might launch an 'iPhone Ultra' that plays nice with Vision Pro

"Most frameworks available in iPadOS and iOS are also included in visionOS, which means nearly all iPad and iPhone apps can run on visionOS, unmodified," said Apple.

Apple once again repeated that Vision Pro is coming "early next year," which is also when customers will be able to access these apps on the Vision Pro's App Store.
