YouTube, which had previously announced its decision not to create a dedicated application for Apple’s Vision Pro, has now reversed that decision, according to a statement made to The Verge. The tech giant Apple’s Vision Pro, a mixed reality headset that has recently been introduced to the market, has generated significant excitement among consumers, leading to a surge in sales as people are eager to experience Apple’s mixed reality offering.
