Description

Stream immersive OpenVR games from your PC to your Apple Vision Pro via Wi-Fi.

ALVR makes it easy to stream OpenVR apps from your gaming computer to your Apple Vision Pro, with support for hand gesture input, dual controllers such as the Nintendo Switch™ Joy-Con™ controllers, or existing lighthouse base station setups for hardcore spatial computing enthusiasts. ALVR is also open-source, does not collect user data, and is constantly improving thanks to our contributors.

Requirements:
* Computer running a compatible OpenVR runtime - Windows, or Linux
* Apple Vision Pro must be on the same local network as the computer

For best performance:
* Ensure you are connected to a 5GHz 802.11ac router within 20 feet of your playspace with speeds greater than 300Mbps
* Ensure network activity from other devices on your 5GHz router is minimal (if possible, use a dedicated AP for streaming)
* Make sure your streaming computer is connected directly to the router via ethernet
* Ensure AirDrop and Handoff are disabled during gameplay, to prevent stutter from 5GHz channel switching

Best and only Apple Vision Pro PCVR streaming app out there(For now…)

I’ve been using the TestFlight version of this app ever since it was made available there. This app is defiantly a must have if you have a gaming PC or have an exsiting PCVR setup with Steam VR.

Also for the people who are setting this app up for the first time, on the PC end I recommend using the latest stable version of ALVR. Also I would defiantly recommend using Switch Joy-Cons as VR controllers if you do not have a VR base station setup. If you need additional help with setting up ALVR, joining the ALVR Discord will also help you to troubleshoot on the more specific types of errors you may have.

Finally PCVR on Vision

Been waiting for this since the day the Vision Pro came out. Excellent for flight and racing sims. Haven’t tried for games that use motion controls, but apparently you can do it pretty easily with Switch controllers.

Amazing

I used ALVR when Oculus was new and before it was integrated natively, worked well then and works well now. Opens the door to thousand of VR experiences and games. Thank you for this!
