If you forget your Vision Pro password, you no longer need to go to an Apple Store

Apple has rolled out a Vision Pro update that fixes one of the most confusing issues at launch. Starting with VisionOS 1.0.3, which was released on Monday, headset users who have forgotten their password can reset their devices and reinstall them. Previously, users who lost their passwords had to go to an Apple retail store or ship the device to AppleCare customer support before they could use their $3,500 device again.

Today’s new software is the first VisionOS update released since the mixed reality headset became available to customers. The first two were released before the public release, when only reviewers and developers had it. mike rumor Let’s start with today’s software update.

Apple’s official release notes read: “This update delivers important bug fixes and adds an option to reset your device if you forget your password.” It’s unclear why Apple launched the expensive hardware and its Features need to go to brick-and-mortar stores, and if it only takes a few weeks a simpler solution can be provided to work more closely with other products.

Engadget’s Devindra Hardawar sees Apple’s $3,500 headphones as a mixture of fascination and frustration — one that’s more suited to developers or well-heeled Apple fans than the general public. “In a nutshell, this is pretty much the Vision Pro experience,” wrote Engadget’s senior editor. “Surprise and dismay. Visions of the future are limited by the current hardware—even if that hardware is some of the best we’ve ever seen.”
