Apple Vision Pro continues to receive new apps specifically designed for spatial computing. The latest is from the immersive computing experts at Spatial. It’s a brand new app called Spatial Analogue. The company describes it as “the first collaborative 3D immersive experience platform on Apple Vision Pro” for professional 3D design workflows. Spatial also shared plans to release a second app for visionOS called Analogue Designer in early 2025.

Analogue Use Cases
Spatial highlights four ways designers can use Analogue on Apple Vision Pro:
- Visualize ideas quickly in full 3D context and with immersion
- Collaborate securely from anywhere: between local teams or a distributed team of designers around the world
- Create prototypes without writing code to speed up development
- Instant preview on Apple Vision Pro for a full-fidelity interactive experience
National Geographic Society is among the firms Spatial partners with, allowing them to “collaborate directly in immersive, real-time environments, enabling new levels of seamless creativity in workflows that were previously plagued by design challenges, internal and external team silos, and interoperability barriers.”
Scene Collection
Analogue includes a set of scenes for three design business verticals as inspiration:
- Auto Dash Layout and Garage Collab Room for automotive design
- Vision Theater, Courtyard, Photo Gallery and Space Layout for space previews
- Conference Collab Room and boxHAUS Induction for product design reviews
Analogue Features
Apple's latest Vision Pro app launches with a focus on these three options:

- Real-Time Collaboration: View designs in real time and enjoy face-to-face collaboration, no matter where teams or clients are located. Native SharePlay capabilities during a FaceTime call ensure high-quality shared design.
- Viewpoints: Create and view different perspectives on a design. See every detail from every angle.
- Asset Variations: Quickly test different versions of the same asset. Experience real-time A/B testing as if everyone was in the same room.
Designer Coming Soon
In addition to launching Analogue today, Spatial is also announcing its own 3D design tool for Apple Vision Pro, coming in early 2025.
Analogue Designer will include native support for OpenUSD, allowing the upcoming visionOS app to “easily integrate into previously cumbersome 3D workflows and dramatically speed up design reviews while removing the barriers associated with proprietary technologies,” says Spatial.
Like Apple, Spatial is a member of the OpenUSD Alliance. Learn more and request early access to Analogue Designer here.
In the meantime, try Spatial Analogue on Apple Vision Pro even if you're not a 3D designer to see what's possible with spatial computing for professional designers across industries.
