One of Apple’s main objectives with the first generation of the Vision Pro is that developers start creating applications. In fact, along with the development of the device, Apple is also stepping on the accelerator to have all the necessary tools ready to make apps. Although not yet available, some platforms, such as Telegramhave already imagined their software adapted to the augmented reality experience of the Apple Vision Pro, and it looks incredible.
Through his public channel, Pável Dúrov, CEO of Telegram, shared a short video that offers a first look at its application for the Apple Vision Pro. Although the functions are practically identical to those we have on computers or mobile devices, the interface makes the most of augmented reality.
Firstly, the Telegram window on the Apple Vision Pro follows the design line imposed by those from Cupertino. That is, with a blurred background that allows you to continue visualizing the real world. Let us remember that the equipment integrates multiple cameras on the outside, which capture and transmit in real time what is happening outside. In this way, reality is combined with a digital environment.
Telegram, then, proposes an application that she looks quite attractive in sight. At a certain point in the video, yes, those characteristics that make Telegram so particular begin to appear. For example, its extensive catalog of stickers and animated emojis. These seem to momentarily leave the main window to show off their colorful animations like never before.
When playing a video, the environment darkens to give full prominence to the material, an idea that we had already seen in Apple’s demonstration during WWDC 2023.
Telegram does not want to miss the Apple Vision Pro train
At the moment, Dúrov did not want to provide more details. We do not know if this application will accompany the Apple Vision Pro at its launch, which is scheduled for early 2024. However, it should not surprise us if Telegram is one of the first communication platforms, or perhaps the only one, to get on the train of the glasses from the beginning. Its pace of development of new features is notably higher than that of its competition, including WhatsApp.
One point that is important to clarify is that The Apple Vision Pro will have a limited launch in the United States. The rest of the world will have to wait several months to acquire them. In Europe, for example, they would arrive at the end of 2024 or beginning of 2025, so you will have to be patient.
There is no doubt that the Apple Vision Pro, being the company’s debut in a new product segment, will give a lot to talk about next year. If Telegram manages to be part of the conversation, it will have achieved its purpose.
