So you want to enhance your productivity, and you're intrigued by the Apple Vision Pro?
But do you need it? What productivity apps are available on the Vision Pro? Will it be worth it?
Before you purchase a Vision Pro, you want to make sure it can support your productivity and work style before it becomes another accessory you never use. Of course, the Apple Vision Pro looks incredible, and the release is super exciting.
We have added some of the best Vision Pro productivity apps to this list. If you see applications you want to use or already do use, this may sway your choice.
Fantastical on the Vision Pro will provide a space to manage tasks and your calendar alongside each other. In one big space, you can see upcoming events, rearrange appointments, and make plans for the next week.
Fantastical uses natural language, making inputting tasks and events into your calendar easier, adding due dates and times as you write. You can also use time blocking to manage tasks fundamentally, but this still helps with planning and organization.
Fantastical doesn't provide a super detailed task management system, but working alongside calendar and other applications when using Vision Pro may be minimal enough. Overall, the whole app already provides a nice experience on Apple devices, it should be no different here. Unlock the beginner's guide to Fantastical.

Slack is a well-known team communication tool, it provides a space to keep everyone in the loop, hold meetings, and much more. You can create Huddles to chat with specific team members, share screens, record videos, and much more
With Vision Pro, this may look like a big canvas of team meetings, with the ability to see everyone clearly, and messaging abilities. You will also be able to use Slack alongside other applications and tools whilst working and moving around your space.
Overall, Slack is a really easy-to-use chat app for teams to communicate via video, voice notes, shared meetings, recordings, and Huddles. You can also easily search the app to find past messages and information.
ChatGPT is coming to Vision Pro and can be downloaded for the device to ask questions and unlock more productivity every single day. You can use this AI assistant whilst wearing the glasses.
Apple Freeform on the Vision Pro will look and feel great in that big space in front of your eyes. You will be able to brainstorm with teams while on Facetime, draw, write, edit, and create action plans for projects.
When considering what this may look like on the Vision Pro, we imagine an extendable canvas space for you to use while moving around or from the comfort of your own home. It's kind of like drawing on a whiteboard, except it's digital. Apple Freeform is a great productivity tool for Apple devices. Its ability to FaceTime and work in an infinite space makes it an essential tool for creating and brainstorming ideas.
Everyone who owns an Apple device will have used Apple Notes before.
On the Vision Pro, this may look like an enlarged version of what you already see, giving you space to write more, organize better, and be comfortable whilst doing so. Your Apple Notes will sync across your iCloud so you can access it through multiple devices. This means you can take notes on your mobile and then view them later on with your Vision Pro.
With Apple Notes you can organize with tags and folders to create a system, you can also use filters to search for older notes or a genre of notes you have written. Add photos and sketches to notes to further explore creativity.
Considering the cost of a Vision Pro, we would suggest utilizing what you have got first, and then seeing if a Vision Pro would then further enhance your productivity and if it is worth it.
Of course, if the cost doesn't bother you, a Vision Pro will provide a different level and experience to productivity when working from home and carrying out tasks.
But whether you need one or should buy one depends on personal preference, cost, and whether you think another tool, in addition to your mobile, laptop, and watch, will improve your current productivity.
