I’ve been using Vision Pro for several days now. Here’s a video where I share my initial impressions and answer questions about the new platform from labs members. I’m simultaneously releasing the audio from this to the podcast feed…

This week I welcome a new sponsor to MacSparky: AudiOn, from the makers of Boom3D, an app that lets you record and edit audio easily on iPhone, and that gives you a lot of great editing options.
I record my voice a lot to capture thoughts, ideas for content, or anything else that comes to mind. AudiOn takes that experience to a whole new level. You can do a lot to bring your recordings to life once they’re captured. You can add some effects like reverb or use the built-in equalizer, blend your voice with music, and also edit and merge recordings. I can see AudiOn being used by podcasters, voice actors, or anyone that use their voice to create content.What impressed me the most after using the app to record my voice is how clear the recording is. I was also able to use the Voice Isolation feature right within the app. You can of course record any audio, not just your voice, and have access to a nice set of editing tools.Take your iPhone audio recording to the next level with AudiOn, available for free on the App Store (with optional in-app purchase).

Whatever gene it is that makes you defenseless to heart-warming marketing videos, I’ve got it. I clicked on this video just to see how good it looked, being shot on iPhone 15 Pro Max. Within thirty seconds, I was hooked and entirely forgot about it being shot on iPhone, which is likely the point.

Stephen Hackett is at it again. Here’s a video in testament to a Mac I had no idea existed. If only Apple were willing to be more whimsical with Mac colors today.

The Vision Pro review videos are all now dropping. The ones I’ve enjoyed the most are listed below. I think it’s fun that this new product category has got everyone doing some head scratching. None of the reviews have yet gone deep on using the device for productivity. That’s something I intend to explore.
One interesting effect of watching these reviews with my wife in the room is that she now wants her own fitted light seal to watch all her Disney movies in Theater mode. So, if you watch the below links with loved ones around, you’ve been warned.
