The real interface
Use it before
you install.
A working recreation of the VisionDesk control panel, rebuilt from the app's own layout and values. Switch pages, pick a screen, drag the sliders — this is what the headset shows.
Playing a short demo — touch anything to take overA browser recreation for the web. Its control ranges are the app's own: distance 0.4–6 m and a curved viewing radius of 0.6–3 m (DisplayLimits, WorkspaceSync.curveRadiusRange), tilt ±40° snapping to flat near zero, and size as the rendered diagonal in meters — the same numbers the app reports. The readouts start from the values in the captured session.
The honest comparison
You already have one Mac display in there.
This is for the other four.
visionOS includes Mac Virtual Display, and it is good: one screen, nothing to install, and an ultrawide option about as wide as two 4K displays side by side. VisionDesk begins where that stops — several separate displays, each placed by the meter, and an arrangement you can save.
Checked against Apple’s published Mac Virtual Display documentation for visionOS 26 in August 2026. If one screen is all you need, use Apple’s: it is already on your device, and it is free.
Precise by design
Your workspace.
Exactly how you want it.
Distance and physical size are real numbers in meters, not an abstract percentage — and Mac and Vision Pro read from one shared model. Drag to move, pinch to resize, twist to turn in the headset; refine the exact value on the Mac.
- Saved Workspaces remember count, aspect, resolution, position, depth, size, rotation, tilt and curve.
- Precision Layout applies exact shared values across a multi-screen selection.
- Change layout, curve or tilt on either device and the other follows.
Two apps, one workspace
Both sides,
newly redesigned.
The Mac Host gained a sidebar, focused pages and a session strip carrying the live connection. In the headset, a glass panel puts Desk, Workspace, Environment and Quality one tap apart. Every capture is the shipping app, not a mockup.

Built for real work
Low latency is a design constraint, not a slogan.
Capture runs through ScreenCaptureKit, encodes in hardware, and travels your own network. Nothing passes a VisionDesk server, because there is no VisionDesk server.
Quality follows your focus
The active screen gets full bitrate; peripheral screens run lighter so the encoder never runs out of headroom. It uses the active screen and a privacy-preserving head-direction estimate — never raw eye tracking.
Text clarity without a queued frame
Single-pass contrast-adaptive sharpening keeps small desktop text readable, with a strength slider you control. Optional mipmaps reduce shimmer on strongly angled screens.
Standard, or Maximum Quality
Standard mode holds a latency-calibrated resolution ceiling. Maximum Quality lifts it to 4K when your network can carry it. H.264 stands in wherever HEVC is unavailable.
Mac audio and input
Audio, pointer, click, scroll and keyboard travel the same paired connection. Send text, navigation, clipboard and editing commands without leaving the workspace.
Built to recover
Bounded queues and stale-frame rejection protect latency. The headset re-pairs automatically after an app restart, a Mac sleep or a local-network interruption.
Health you can read
Live latency, round trip, packet loss, stale frames, decode percentiles and transport state — per screen, in the dock's Health tab.
Private by default
Your workspace stays yours.
VisionDesk does not phone home. Your displays stream from your Mac to your Vision Pro over your own network. On the App Store, its privacy label reads Data Not Collected.
No accountNothing to sign in to. Pair and work.
No cloud workspaceLocal network only. No relay, no internet pairing.
No analyticsNo telemetry, no advertising identifiers.
One permissionScreen Recording on the Mac, for the displays you stream.
The Mac Host's only other network call is the signed Sparkle update feed. Pairing material lives in the operating-system Keychain. Read the privacy policy.

What VisionDesk does not do.
