How to Use Guest Mode on Apple Vision Pro

Apr. 9, 2024

When you experience the world of Apple Vision Pro, you can’t help but let others have a taste of it as well. But, how? That’s where the Guest User mode comes in, as it allows your friends, family, and acquaintances to put the wonder device on. If you are new to the Vision Pro, setting it up for a guest user may seem tricky. To help you out, we have made this guide on how to use the Guest User mode on the Vision Pro. So, let’s take a look!

What is Guest Mode on the Apple Vision Pro

As the name suggests, the Guest Mode basically allows you to add a guest user to your Apple Vision Pro so that you can share it with someone else. Now, you may be wondering, why not simply just take the Vision Pro off and put it on your friend or family member? You can do that, but since theVision Pro’s eye and hand tracking is synchronized with you, it will be very tricky for the other user to browse their way through it.

With the dedicated Guest Mode, the guest user sets up the eye and hand tracking for them, thereby getting an optimal experience out of it. However, don’t worry, as soon as the guest user takes off the Vision Pro and you put it back on, it rolls back to your eye and hand mapping.

There are a couple of layers to this rather simple setting. So, we have approached this from the point-of-view of a very new Vision Pro user and broken it down into multiple sections. If you are one such user, follow these steps to use the Guest Mode on it easily:

And, that’s how you start the Guest User Mode on the Vision Pro. However, when accessing the Control Panel, make sure that you do so through the down-arrow button. If you access the Control Panel through the Vision Pro Settings, you won’t find the Guest Mode there.

While the Guest User Mode is a great feature that allows others to get a piece of the Vision Pro experience, we’d highly recommend sharing the device with only those that you trust. If you feel that your data is not safe to view by a certain individual, don’t share the device. In case you do, be very selective about the apps you allow the person to view.

Also, do note that whatever changes they make to app settings are retained. However, if they change the Accessibility settings of the Vision Pro, like redoing the hand and eye tracking, it changes only for them.

With that being said, we certainly hope that this guide comes in handy and makes the Guest Mode on the Vision Pro easier to navigate through. If you have any further queries, do let us know in the comments down below!
