Netflix says the Apple Vision Pro is far too niche to make an app for the headset

Apple describes the Vision Pro as a spatial computing device, but at this point it might as well be a pair of cinema glasses that can play 3D movies. That billing is undermined by the absence of a few apps from the big players in streaming – and Netflix has just explained why it’s ditching the headset for now.

In an interview with Stratechery (through The edge), Netflix’s co-CEO Greg Peters revealed why Netflix hasn’t created a native app (or even made its iPad app available) for the Vision Pro. In a completely honest but somehow somewhat damning observation, he states that the Vision Pro is “so underpowered that it is not particularly relevant to most of our members”.
