Users will be able to edit in Final Cut Pro at launch on Apple Vision Pro in augmented reality, allowing content creators and video editors to edit their content with their eyes and hand gestures in “spatial computing.”
Apple Vision Pro won’t be available to the public until early next year in the United States and comes with a whopping $3,499 price tag. At WWDC this week, Apple is giving members of the press and media hands-on time with its next big thing. In a purpose-built building at Apple Park, attendees can try out Apple Vision Pro and visionOS.
One person who had a chance to try out the headset is filmmaker Matti Haapoja, who said in a Twitter thread that Apple Vision Pro will “completely change filmmaking, storytelling, and content creation.” Haapoja added that “editing in Final Cut Pro in AR will be available at launch.” What’s unclear is whether Apple plans to release a dedicated Final Cut Pro app for visionOS or incorporate support for eye and hand gestures into the Mac app when used on an external monitor with Apple Vision Pro.

Initial impressions of Apple Vision Pro have been nothing short of positive, with some who have tried out the headset equating it to magic. Content creator Marques Brownlee praised Apple Vision Pro’s impressive eye tracking and hand gesture technology. The Verge‘s Nilay Patel equally praised Apple Vision Pro’s displays and video passthrough, saying it’s the highest-resolution VR display yet.
Apple Vision Pro is “the most advanced piece of electronics equipment” ever made, Apple CEO Tim Cook said in an interview this week. When confronted about the headset’s price, Cook said he wasn’t sure if it would be affordable to many, saying people will have to make that decision for themselves.
