Apple today released visionOS 26.2, the second point update for the visionOS 26 platform that debuted in September. This release follows visionOS 26.1 by about a month and brings several enhancements aimed at improving travel experiences and compatibility with spatial accessories.
How to update: visionOS 26.2 can be installed on any Vision Pro headset by opening the Settings app, selecting General, and tapping Software Update. The update process requires removing the headset, and you’ll see a progress bar on the front EyeSight display during installation.
What’s new in visionOS 26.2: The update expands Travel Mode to cover cars and buses in addition to airplanes and trains, making it easier to use Vision Pro while riding various forms of transportation. It also adds support for drawing content with spatial accessories like the Logitech Muse within Notes, Freeform, and any app that uses PencilKit. Additionally, Freeform now supports tables that can contain text, images, documents, and drawings, with cells that resize intelligently to fit content, providing more structure to your boards.
Summary of release notes:
- Travel Mode now available in cars and buses, expanding beyond air travel and rail.
- Hand-drawn content support with spatial accessories (e.g., Logitech Muse) in compatible apps.
- Freeform tables can host multiple content types and feature auto-resizing cells for better content organization.
