VisionOS 2 will launch next week, but three big features won’t arrive until “later this year.”

Apple confirmed that it will launch VisionOS 2 on September 16th, which comes with a ton of previously teased features that were announced at WWDC in June. Three features are listed as “coming later this year.” Here’s what you’ll be missing when Monday rolls around.

We’ve compiled a list of VisionOS 2 things below, although three interesting features don’t yet have release dates:

Panoramic productivity with Mac virtual display

We were hoping it would come with VisionOS 2, but we’ll have to wait a little longer. Later this year Apple will finally allow Mac Virtual Display for a more immersive, ultrawide screen experience, simulating two 4K displays side-by-side for enhanced multitasking, the company says.

It also looks very simple. The video above shows the UI changing to go from ‘Normal’ to ‘Wide’ and ‘Ultrawide’ modes when using Mac Virtual Display, which will finally reduce the size of bringing the Vision Pro (with your Mac) to the coffee shop. Job done.

Spatial videos support for Final Cut Pro

Apple announced back at WWDC that Final Cut Pro will finally play nice with MV-HVEC videos captured by Vision Pro, the iPhone 15 Pro, and now the entire iPhone 16 lineup thanks to support for spatial video, photo, and audio capture. At one point, Apple says you’ll be able to import and edit Spatial videos in Final Cut Pro on your Mac, add “high-speed titles and effects,” and then view the final product in Vision Pro.

We haven’t seen it in action yet, but if Apple invests enough resources, we’re holding out hope for a seamless editing and live viewing experience that could be great for workflows.

Apple TV Sports Multiview

At some point the Vision Pro will get a MultiView feature in the Vision Pro’s Apple TV app, which is more in line with the Apple TV 4K’s capabilities.

By adding MultiView, you can watch up to five MLS or MLB games at once with customizable layouts and the ability to switch between different game views. On the toilet.

In case you missed it, here’s a list of some of the headline features coming to VisionOS 2 next week:
