Since the Apple Vision Pro was announced, much has been said about the possibility of Apple demanding a head scanning user so they can proceed with the purchase of their headset, thus ensuring a perfect fit — something essential for the product to function properly.
At first, it was believed that this tool would be exclusive to physical stores, which would mean that a person interested in buying a Vision Pro would have to pay a visit to a Apple Store to take your measurements. A message found by MacRumors in the application code Apple Store for iOS/iPadOS, however, it hints that this feature will also be available to end users from the comfort of their homes.
According to the vehicle, the message says the following (in free translation): “You can scan your face to determine your size for Apple Vision Pro.” It is worth noting that developers already have a similar tool for some time to assist them in developing apps for Vision Pro.
Therefore, it is almost safe to say that scanning the user’s head will be one of the steps in the process of purchasing the Vision Pro, which will go on pre-sale in exactly one week (19/1) and will finally hit the market on February 2 nd. It is not yet clear, however, whether this process will be mandatory.
In its announcement about the headset’s launch earlier this week, Apple explained that it will come with a Solo Knit Band is Dual Loop Band, in order to offer more adjustment options to your customers. The device also includes a Light Seal and two cushions for the component, which should also help with fitting.
With a starting price of US$3.500, the Vision Pro will come with 256GB of storage in its most basic version — if there is more than one configuration. Furthermore, it appears that it will sell out quickly, as Apple would only have produced 60-80 thousand units of the headset for this launch.

Shortly after references were found in the Apple Store app code to a head scanning tool, Maçã went there and sent an email to its customers confirming the existence of this new feature.
In its message, the company advised its users to keep an iPhone or iPad with Face ID nearby when purchasing the Vision Pro. Furthermore, it confirmed that the version of the Apple Store app with the scanning tool was launched yesterday in its store of applications.
Here is the full message (free translation):
When you purchase Apple Vision Pro, you will need to scan your face with an iPhone or iPad with Face ID. This helps us determine the right size of the Light Seal and the head straps, which work together to give you a precise fit.
The Cupertino giant also asked its customers to keep prescriptions for their prescription lenses on hand if they wear glasses. The idea is to facilitate the purchasing process:
Because Apple Vision Pro is designed to be used without glasses, we partnered with ZEISS to create custom optical inserts that accommodate most prescriptions. When you place your order, we’ll ask you a few quick questions to find out if you need optical inserts. If you need it, you will need to upload a valid, unexpired prescription from a US eye care professional after checkout.
Finally, the company also took the opportunity to remember that it will hold Vision Pro demonstration sessions in its US stores, on a first-come, first-served basis, starting at 8am on February 2nd — which is also the product’s official launch date.
