On December 12th, the latest annual developer survey report published by Setapp indicates that only 3% of developers are currently creating new applications for Apple Vision Pro, with 35% stating they have no plans to do so. A significant 60% of developers are actively involved in the AI sector or have already integrated AI capabilities into their products, highlighting the relatively low appeal of Apple Vision Pro.
According to the report, Mac users on average have 51 applications installed on their devices, with approximately 15 being used daily. The report emphasizes that browser applications, Microsoft and Google office tools, and Adobe software are among the most frequently used and essential applications. As previously reported by Mark Gurman, Apple Vision Pro has sold fewer than 500,000 units since its release, and internal data shows that the usage rate of Vision Pro buyers (non-returners) has not met Apple’s expectations. The high cost is not the only barrier to consumer purchases; the headset also lacks ‘killer applications’. Despite poor sales, Apple CEO Tim Cook continues to defend Apple Vision Pro, stating previously that the device is designed for those who wish to experience future technology today.Advertorial Statement: External links (including but not limited to hyperlinks, QR codes, and passcodes) contained within the text are provided to convey more information and save selection time.
