visionOS 26, recently launched for Vision Pro users, introduces two notable features that enhance the integration between iPhone and Vision Pro. The update allows users to unlock their iPhone without entering a passcode, addressing a common frustration for those using Vision Pro alongside their iPhone or iPad Pro. This seamless unlocking is achieved by simply swiping up, as visionOS 26 recognizes the user without needing additional authentication. Additionally, the update enables the use of an iPhone even in immersive environments, similar to how visionOS detects a Magic Keyboard. These features underscore Apple’s acknowledgment that, despite advances in spatial computing, the iPhone remains an indispensable device. VisionOS 26’s enhancements reflect this reality, ensuring a smoother user experience across devices.
