See people around you while you’re immersed with Apple Vision Pro
People Awareness detects and shows people around you, so you can stay connected and be aware of who is nearby.
Turn People Awareness on or off

People Awareness is turned on by default when you’re using an Environment. If you don’t want Apple Vision Pro to automatically reveal people nearby, turn off People Awareness or choose when to show people.
Go to Settings
> Awareness & Safety.Turn People Awareness on or off.
Choose when to show people
Go to Settings
> Awareness & Safety.Tap Environments, Environments and Immersive Apps, or Everything.
Apple Vision Pro also reveals some objects in front of you (such as walls) and reveals your surroundings when you’re approaching an object too quickly (faster than a brisk walk). You can’t adjust these settings or turn them off. Keep in mind that Apple Vision Pro won’t detect all objects or obstacles. See Prepare your space before using Apple Vision Pro and About immersion.
