Christian SeligYouTube wouldn't build an app for the Apple Vision Pro, so I did! Introducing Juno, an Apple Vision Pro app for YouTube, now available at http://juno.vision 📺🥽
I wrote a blog post with an overview all about Juno, its features, and how it works if you're curious! https://christianselig.com/2024/02/introducing-juno/
Introducing Juno for Apple Vision Pro
YouTube is probably one of the parts of the internet I consume the most, so I was more than a little sad when YouTube announced that they don’t have plans to build a visionOS app, and disabled the option to load the iPad app. This leaves you with Safari, and the website is okay, but definitely doesn’t feel like a visionOS app. Couple that with visionOS not having the option to add websites to your Home Screen, and YouTube isn’t that convenient on visionOS by default.
And here's a quick overview video showing it in action. I'm looking forward to trying it on an actual device tomorrow, I really feel like Apple Vision Pro is going to make such an amazing YouTube experience 🥳
Also, there will no doubt be some bugs, out of a combination of a mad rush plus only having simulator access (until tomorrow morning), but let me know your feedback and I'll be on it!
Khaos Tian@christianselig Can you tweak the video playback window so the corner radius is smaller (like what AVPlayerViewController does on visionOS)? That way less content from the edge is cropped 🙏
Finn Voorhees@khaost not seeing any way to do this, do you have to drop into UIKit…?
@finnvoorhees you can set windowStyle to plain and then you should have freedom to change corner radius ^^

@stroughtonsmith @khaost amazing, so hard to find these apis
@finnvoorhees @stroughtonsmith yeah SwiftUI’s API discoverability is kinda bad 😅
