Vimeo offers a spatial app experience designed for Apple

NEW YORK, Oct. 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Vimeo (NASDAQ: VMEO), the world's most innovative video experience platform, today announced the launch of its groundbreaking app for Apple Vision Pro. This immersive app brings viewers into the content and allows Vision Pro users to watch, upload and share their spatial videos for others to enjoy. The free app is now available for download in the visionOS App Store.

With its ability to add remarkable depth and dimension to a scene, spatial video offers an innovative way to tell powerful stories, providing a more engaging and immersive experience for both personal and professional use cases. Spatial videos can be recorded on the Apple Vision Pro, iPhone 16 series, iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. Canon has also announced the development of a new stereoscopic lens, the RF-S7.8mm F4 STM DUAL lens, which is compatible with the popular EOS R7 camera body and can capture beautiful spatial videos.

The Vimeo app for Vision Pro allows users to relive past moments and experiences in never-before-seen ways, or explore the Vimeo Community's growing content library. After recording spatial videos, users can upload their content and share it privately or with the Vimeo community. Users can upload and catalog their spatial videos to their Vimeo library via the Vimeo app for iOS, visionOS, or vimeo.com. Professional content creators and video professionals also gain an innovative new way to tell stories and engage with their audiences. Companies can use spatial video to take their customers to new places, provide immersive training experiences for their employees, and even showcase new products in truly unique ways. Apple has announced an update to Final Cut Pro later this year that will allow creators to edit spatial videos on their Mac and add dynamic titles and effects to their projects.

“Vimeo has always been known for helping creators tell their stories with the highest quality formats and most innovative technologies,” said Philip Moyer, CEO of Vimeo. “The launch of our Apple Vision Pro app marks a significant milestone in our ongoing mission to push the boundaries of the video experience. This type of spatial content is the future of storytelling and we are proud to be at the forefront of this revolution.”

To celebrate the launch of its Vision Pro app, Vimeo has partnered with the award-winning filmmaker and Staff Pick winner Jake Oleson to create exclusive Contents which demonstrates the experiences that spatial video enables and aims to inspire others to experiment with it themselves.
