Now that pre-orders for the Apple Vision Pro are open, Apple has also revealed some of its limitations today. It seems that Apple has some other plans for customers planning to travel to the U.S. to purchase the Apple Vision Pro.

According to the Frequently Asked Questions section on Apple’s webpage, here’s how the usage of the Apple Vision Pro will be limited in other regions. In order for the Vision Pro to function without any limitations, customers need to be aware of these instructions:

  • Apple Vision Pro only supports English (U.S.) for language and typing and English for Siri and Dictation.
  • App Store requires an Apple ID with region set to the U.S.
  • Purchases on Apple Music and TV app require an Apple ID with region set to the U.S.
  • For customers with vision correction needs, ZEISS will only accept vision prescriptions written by U.S. eye care professionals, and will only ship to U.S. locations.
  • Customers may not be able to access certain apps, features, or content due to licensing or other restrictions in those countries or regions.
  • Apple Support is only available in the U.S.

Apple also plans on launching the Vision Pro headset in more countries this year, so customers outside of the U.S. can look forward to this. Customers will not face these limitations once it launches in their region.

If you’re a U.S. Customer and traveling internationally, your experience will not be limited. According to Apple, “Apple Vision Pro is great for travel and when U.S. customers travel abroad, the experience will remain consistent. That means all of their apps and content will remain accessible while traveling, so they can use apps and enjoy music, TV, and movies.

On the airplane, customers can turn on Travel Mode which adapts Apple Vision Pro to the unique motion of commercial air travel to give you the best experience. They can dial in an Environment, wear AirPods Pro (2nd generation), and sit back to enjoy a movie while seats and sounds around them disappear.”
