Capture, view, and share spatial photos and videos on Apple Vision Pro
You can capture 3D spatial photos and videos on Apple Vision Pro. Spatial photos and videos take you back to a moment in time, like a celebration with friends or a special family gathering, so it feels like you’re there again. You can view all your spatial photos and videos together in the Photos app.
Take a spatial photo or video
Press the top button to open Capture .
To choose whether you want to take a spatial photo or video, tap Photo or Video at the bottom.
Press the top button to take a spatial photo or start recording a spatial video.
To stop recording, press the top button again, or tap .
Best practices for capturing spatial photos and video
Try to keep your head still while recording spatial video.
A crosshair appears in the center of your view while recording spatial video. If you move too much, the crosshair appears to move outside a circle. Keep the crosshair inside the circle for the most comfortable viewing experience. (If a video has excess motion, an alert appears when you tap to view it in Immersive view.)
Before you start a recording, a level appears through the shutter button if you tilt your head. You can use this as a guide to help make your photos and videos more level.
Avoid capturing photo or video with subjects that are very close to you.
View your spatial captures
See a spatial photo or video you just captured: Tap the thumbnail image in the lower-left corner of Capture .
See all your spatial photos and videos: Go to the Photos app on your Apple Vision Pro, then tap Spatial in the tab bar. See View photos, videos, and memories in Photos on Apple Vision Pro.
To view a spatial photo or video in Immersive view, tap in Capture or Photos.
Share a spatial capture
Go to the Photos app on your Apple Vision Pro.
Tap next to the spatial photo or video you want to share, tap , then select an option such as AirDrop, Mail, or Messages.
Spatial photos and videos look 3D on Apple Vision Pro, and appear 2D on other devices. If you take spatial videos on iPhone 15 Pro or iPhone 15 Pro Max, you can share them with people who have Apple Vision Pro to view on their device.
