Symptoms:
- I am an educator or student developing XR applications and want to use my education license with Unity.
- I want to develop apps for Apple Vision Pro using VisionOS in Unity
Cause:
Some Educational licenses offer various benefits and tools for learning and development but might have restrictions when it comes to high-end or specialized development, like VisionOS. VisionOS development in Unity requires access to certain XR plugins.
Resolution:
We are excited to announce that starting January 23rd, 2025, VisionOS development is now supported under our Unity Student and Unity Educator Plans.
Here’s what this means:
- Unity Student license holders will automatically gain access to Unity Pro from an editor perspective when developing for VisionOS.
- VisionOS development features are now seamlessly integrated into Unity Student and Unity Educator Plans.
However, we’d like to clarify that this feature is not currently available with the Education Grant License. Creating applications for VisionOS will continue to require one of the following licenses:
- Unity Pro
- Unity Industry
- Unity Student
- Unity Educator Plans
