Adjust your level of immersion when using Apple Vision Pro

You can adjust how immersed you are in Environments when you use Apple Vision Pro.

You can also see people when they approach you, even when you’re in an immersive experience. See See people around you while you’re immersed with Apple Vision Pro.

Adjust your immersion for Environments

You can adjust the level of immersion for Environments, like Yosemite and White Sands.

To adjust how much of your surroundings you see, turn the Digital Crown.

Depending on what you’re doing, you may need to look at (near the top of your view) while you turn the Digital Crown.

Note: Some app Environments may not allow you to adjust immersion.

Double-click the Digital Crown to see your surroundings. To return to your experience, press the Digital Crown once.

Before using Apple Vision Pro, ensure that the area around you is clear. See Set up your space.
Apple Vision Pro automatically sets a boundary around you for fully immersive experiences. If you move out from the boundary, the immersive experience gradually fades to reveal your surroundings.
If you move completely outside the boundary, Apple Vision Pro reveals your surroundings completely. If you return to the original position or re-centre your view, the experience returns to the previous immersion level.
In partially immersive experiences, Apple Vision Pro gradually reveals your surroundings while you’re moving; you can continue to interact with the experience while this occurs. The experience returns to its previous immersion level when you stop moving.
Always stay aware of your surroundings while moving in an immersive experience, as objects around you may be blocked by the experience.
If you’re moving too quickly (faster than a brisk walk), Apple Vision Pro automatically clears your view and reduces immersion (from any immersion level, not just when you’re fully immersed) to reveal your surroundings.

Note: You can’t adjust the settings and alerts described above, including the size of the boundary.
