Let another person use your Apple Vision Pro with Guest User
Use the Guest User feature to share your Apple Vision Pro with others and control which apps they can use.
Help your guest get a good fit
Because Apple Vision Pro Light Seal and head bands are fitted for you, your guest may not experience an optimal fit if they share these components. You can help your guest find a better fit by letting them try both the Solo Knitted and Dual Loop Bands. You can find more tips for getting the best fit with Apple Vision Pro.
For the best possible experience, personal Light Seals and head bands are available to be purchased as accessories from Apple.com. If your guest has vision needs, they may benefit from wearing supported contact lenses or purchasing personalised ZEISS Optical Inserts.
Apple Vision Pro is designed to fit and be used by individuals 13 years of age or older.
Decide how much access you want your guest to have, then start a Guest User session
Before you start a Guest User session, it’s a good idea to decide whether you want your guest to have access to all apps and data on your Apple Vision Pro or limit their access to only the apps that are open.
If you want to limit their access to apps
Make sure your Apple Vision Pro has a passcode set.
Close any apps you don’t want your guest to use.
Open any apps that you want to be made available to your guest.
Start a Guest User session
Tap the
to see more options.Tap the
.In the Guest User window that appears, tap Allowed Apps.
Choose Open Apps Only if you want to limit their access or choose All Apps & Data.
Tap the back button, then tap View Mirroring if you want to see what your guest is seeing while using your Apple Vision Pro. Select a device from the menu that appears.
Tap the back button, then tap Start. A notification will appear letting you know that you have five minutes to hand your device to your guest. If your guest doesn’t put on your Apple Vision Pro within five minutes, Guest User will be turned off and your Apple Vision Pro will be locked.
Get your guest to put on your Apple Vision Pro
After your guest has put on your Apple Vision Pro, they may first be asked to press and hold the Digital Crown until the displays are aligned and a green tick has appeared.
Next, if anyone else has used your Apple Vision Pro in the last 30 days and saved their personalised settings, your current guest is asked to choose between using those saved settings or setting up as a new guest. If your current guest was also the most recent guest user, they can choose those saved settings and begin using the device.
If your guest is a new user, they’re asked to go through hand and eye setup so that Apple Vision Pro responds accurately to their input. Then your guest can choose to save their hand and eye data to make it more convenient if they use your device on a regular basis. Only one guest user setup can be saved; if a previous guest has saved their hand and eye data, that information is replaced when the current guest saves theirs.
When the hand and eye setup processes have been completed, your guest can start using your Apple Vision Pro.
End a Guest User session
After your guest has finished using your Apple Vision Pro, they can take off the device to end the Guest User session. The next time you put on your Apple Vision Pro, it will automatically return to your personal hand and eye settings.
What’s available during a Guest User session
When your guest is using your Apple Vision Pro, they will have access to all apps and data on the device or just the apps you’ve allowed them to use. When a guest uses an allowed app, they will have access to all of the information in that app. For example, if they’re using the Music app and you’re signed in to Apple Music, your guest will see your playlists, favourite songs and recently played music.
During a Guest User session, your Persona, Optic ID and Apple Pay are restricted. If you have a passcode on your Apple Vision Pro, areas in Settings such as Apple Account, Wallet, Health Data and Privacy & Security are also unavailable. A guest can view health data that’s stored in apps that you make available to them, and their health data may be saved if they use any of those apps.
Your guest will have access to some convenient settings in Control Centre:
Tap the
next to Guest User.In the menu that appears, your guest can choose to change accessibility settings, redo the eye or hand setup processes and find out more about Guest User and privacy.
If your guest customises accessibility settings and saves their profile, those adjustments stay in place next time they use your device. Accessibility settings that your guest configures don’t affect your accessibility preferences.
