TikTok today announced that it has released an app for Apple's Vision Pro headset. The app is optimized for visionOS's spatial design style, with TikTok promising a more "immersive" viewing experience for its short-form videos.
"Experience your For You feed in an entirely new way through this immersive content view," said TikTok, in a post on social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter.
The app has a familiar layout on the Vision Pro, with a main "For You" video feed, along with profiles, comments, search, and more. TikTok is available now on the Vision Pro's App Store, and additional images of the app can be found below.
There are still a handful of major social media, streaming video, and streaming music apps that are entirely unavailable on the Vision Pro, including Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Netflix, Spotify, and WhatsApp. In the meantime, developer Christian Selig created an app called Juno for watching YouTube videos on the Vision Pro.
Apple today provided developers with the second betas of upcoming watchOS 26.5, tvOS 26.5, and visionOS 26.5 betas for testing purposes. The software comes two weeks after Apple released the first betas for each platform.
The software updates are available through the Settings app on each device, and because these are developer betas, a free developer account is required.

One of the worst things I’ve ever done for my mental health was installing TikTok. One of the best things I ever did for my mental health was uninstalling TikTok. Just say no.
If there was an app I didn't care about it had to be TikTok.
What about some really relevant apps!
TikTok might not be relevant to you but it’s still one of the top apps in the App Store. These apps lend legitimacy to the platform and other developers will follow, kind of like anchor stores in malls.
